Force Deflection

I'd really like to see force deflection added in the mod. I'm mainly thinking deflection blaster bolts and the likes with your hands. Would probably work best as an extention of saber defense/absorb/protect.

Not sure if it could be done but would be really neat if possible.

With deflection im thinking Vader on Bespin in ep5.

And a few more suggestions:

I wish you could use protect and absorb while knocked down/grappled. Simply more fun but also useful in training. Also, right now Force storm kills everyone and everything. Storm 4+ has a knockdown effect which is impossible to get up from. If you could use absorb while knocked down it would tone down the Ã¼berness of storm quite a bit.

Well, you can already Push blaster bolts, or with Protect level 5 they bounce on you without causing damage.

EDIT: I'll check why you can't get up when being targeted with Storm.. normally when you have the same (or higher) Absorb level as the attacker's Storm level, you should be able to get up.

I suppose protect 5 does it then. The my question is, shouldn't this be a consular skill ? A consular relies more on his ability to use the force, than his lightsaber, I'd say it's reasonable for this to be a skill unlockable for all the classes. Perhaps you could make it so consulars at protect level 3 (max protect level for consulars), they get the shots-bounce-off effect, while the damage you take from other attacks remain the same. And the same for Sentinels, whatever their max protect rank is.

Agreed, at the moment the skill seems to be 'physical'.

Afterall, do Guardians really need to have blasters bounce off them? They have more than twice the health of a Consular.

As far as I know we have exactly twice as much health as you. But I do think force protect should be a more consular oirentated skill seeing as how a Guardian shouldn't really need the power when going up against such enemies. Force protect would make up for the lack of skill in the lightsaber area for a consular.
