I'm thinking more like a head and two big round ears.
At least certain groups seem to have an aversion to many of the things put out but the current overmasters.
Some might define that at anything relating to something that be from something looking like three interlocking rings.
Unless y'all just enjoy arguing about the rules.
Looking at it again I'm thinking that what brought on the confusion was the use of "Double Strike" and "Triple Strike" which I do not recognize as SWSE terms and therefore thought you were bringing them from FFG's systems into SAGA.
when converting characters I generally find it is best to just break down what make them "them" in one system and then rebuild in the new system to so they still can feel like themselves.
When you look at things that grant multiple attacks in SAGA consider that almost none of them are going to stack.
I hope my comments on Twin Weapon Style weren't too confusing. If they were I could always try again.
Don't, just don't. You may be able to match some themes and of course a lot of fluff between the two systems but trying to mix mechanics seems like a recipe for disaster.
Now you could use Rapid Strike with either or both attacks made as part of the Standard Action Twin Weapon Style.
There are several places Twin Weapon Style differs from normal use. The big one is that you are using a Standard Action to use the talent instead of a the Full Attack which would normally be needed to use both attacks. You also must select two different targets instead of directing both attacks against the same target. Another thing that could possibly be an uncorrected error is that these attacks don't suffer the "normal penalty" for attacking with two weapons although I guess that is partly mitigated by attacking two different targets; IF the talent had said "melee weapons" it maybe wouldn't even be all that powerful as it would mean have two opponents in melee range which is uncommon but alas it doesn't seem to be restricted to melee weapons so someone using two pistols could also use that talent and potentially break it wide open.
Twin Weapon Style
As a Standard Action, whenever you are wielding two Weapons (Or a Double Weapon), you can make one attack with each Weapon (Or each end of a Double Weapon). Each attack must be against a different target. p. 21 Jedi Academy Training Manual
Okay, so Jedi training is very time consuming. If I'm running a game and my Jedi character at level 3 says they want to multiclass into Soldier, yes believe it or not they are no longer training as a Jedi. They no longer have time for their master or any missions they might be assigned, and they would probably be temporarily removed from the temple. This of course depends on the era. ^_^
That's roleplaying.
Wow. I'm reading what you're putting, but that makes no sense to me.
Have you ever read the expanded star wars universe books with Corran Horn? He could not use the Alter aspect of the Force to save his life. It was a Halcyon bloodline thing. But every Jedi using the current system is badass in everything they put their mind to.
Neither is "worse" than the other, but I don't understand how you can say that the one with soldier levels is focusing on his Jedi training as much as a level 7 Jedi (that is learning how to construct their own lightsaber).
In the campaign I'm running, one of the antagonists the party is about to run into is a S'kytri. Since this fellow is capable of flight, I'd like to build his fighting style/abilities off that. My question is, how can I do this? Flight in Saga just gives the ability to move in three dimensions rather than the usual two. Is there a way to make a unique style of combat (using the current rules, feats, talents and so on) based around the ability to fly?
So far, the only thing I can think of is having the S'kytri pick enemies up, fly high, and then drop them. But there's no way in Saga to actually do that....
Wow, your response gave me the idea of possibly making the feat do an initial +1 bonus plus 1 per 5 levels, maxing out at level 20. Interesting. I might have to consider that.
I do hate restricting characters, though some restrictions make sense. Someone multiclassing into non-Force using classes, for example, is essentially not focusing on their talent. Someone not taking levels into the available prestige classes is essentially either (in the game) shirking their duty or passing up promotions (likely not wanting to take on extra responsibility).
Yes. Sometimes I over-analyze things. ^_^
One of my ideas to correct this was to make Strong in the Force a prerequisite for the Skill Focus feat, but I'm not sure I like the idea. I really want it to be harder to get, maybe even a special milestone to achieve to acquire the feat. Maybe upon taking a level in the Jedi Knight/Sith Apprentice prestige class a character can take the feat but only receive a +2 bonus, and when they take a level in Jedi Master/Sith Lord prestige class they receive the remaining +3 bonus (the Force class equivalents could take the feat as well).
