[. . . ] All rights reserved. 3267502 SAFETY WARNING PLEASE READ BEFORE INSTALLING OR USING SOFTWARE PHOTOSENSITIVE SEIZURES A very small percentage of people may possibly experience a seizure when exposed to certain light patterns, flashing lights or other visual images that appear in computer software games. If you, or anyone in your family, have an epileptic condition, consult your physician before installing or using the software. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can possibly cause a seizure while viewing a computer software game. Reported seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, nausea, headaches, jerking or shaking of arms and legs, disorientation, confusion, or any involuntary movement or convulsions. [. . . ] STEALTH MODE: Stealth mode covers the character in a camouflage field. Enemies must make an Awareness check versus the character's Stealth skill to see them. This ability is only useable by characters that have spent points in the Stealth skill and are equipped with stealth field generators (Exception: Force Camouflage allows a character to use Stealth even without a stealth field generator equipped). USING A COMPUTER OR DROID: To use a computer or a disabled droid, press the R Key or left click while targeting it. Sometimes you will have the option to use computer spikes or parts to manipulate the computer or the droid. The number of spikes or parts needed is determined by skill in computer use or repair. EXPERIENCE POINTS AND GAINING LEVELS: Victory in combat and completing quests garner Experience points (XP). Many encounters reward the use of the Persuade skill to avoid conflict. Periodically a character will earn enough XP increase in level, improving their Vitality Points, skills, and Force Points and Powers (if a Jedi) At some levels, basic attributes will improve and new feats can be selected. An "L" will appear on the character portrait to indicate that enough XP have been earned. On the Character in-game menu select the Level Up option to customize these improvements. To change the selected character's Form, scroll up or down with the mouse with the mouse wheel while hovering over the Form icon, or click on the arrows above and below the icon until the desired Form is shown and then left click the icon. Each Form provides both bonuses and penalties to certain stats, so the key to using them effectively is choose the Form most appropriate for the situation. Various Combat Situations COMBAT SITUATION SHII-CHO MAKASHI LIGHTSABER FORM SORESU ATARU SHIEN NIMAN JUYO WEAPONS Most weapons fall into five basic types, though more exotic weapons have been rumored to exist. MELEE WEAPONS: This category includes all nonranged weapons other than lightsabers. BLASTER RIFLES: This category includes two-handed blaster weapons, delivering more power than pistols. Any other users would be more likely to injure themselves than their opponents. GRENADES: Characters do not require a weapon proficiency to use grenades. These hand-launched explosives affect anyone (friend or foe) caught in the blast radius around a central target.

For example, a character with Dex 18 normally receives a +4 Defense bonus. A heavy battle suit might provide a Defense of 9, but restricts the maximum allowed DEX bonus to +1, for a total Defense increase of 10. Characters with exceptionally high DEX may be better off relying on a combination of their unrestricted modifier and lighter armor, or even no armor at all.
