Jedi Mind Trick (F4 key)
Single-player effects
This power will allow you to influence the weak enemy's mind. Target him and press the F4 key. You will hear a confirmation sound and you’ll see some kind of blue sparks appear around his head. This power doesn’t work with reborns or other powerful enemies, and its effects finish after a certain amount of time or when a) making a loud noise or b) attacking the enemy
Rank 1: One targeted enemy will be influenced for 5 seconds.

Force Heal (F5 key)

Force Grip (F6 key)
You can use this power to choke a living being.

Rank 2: Target an enemy, and then use to choke him and lift him from the ground. Hold down to continue to inflict damage.
Rank 3: Just the same, but you can carry the enemy around while choking him.
Why don’t a) use him as a shield?
or b) carry him over a pit and letting go F6?
Or even better (this tactic is only worth to use in multiplayer, because SP foes are just too weak) Force Grip them, and Force jump while you keep holding them. when you arrive at the top of your jump, aim at the sky, and let go right before you aim at the point placed right over you (This is hard to explain). SQUISH!! Or, do the same but force push them right after you let go Force grip. Bigger SQUISH!!
Note: this Force Power is considered a dark side force power in multiplayer game
Force Lightning (F7 key)
Jedis use the Force to create and recreate, but it can be used to destroy. See your enemies suffer and scream while they are plunged in an endless agony. Use this power to launch an electrical attack at your enemies.
Rank 1: A quick burst of lightning which goes straight forward
Rank 2: Same, but hold down F7 to shoot continuously
Rank 3: Same, but lightning shoots in an arc. You can hit many enemies at a time this way.
Note: this Force power is considered a dark side force power in multiplayer game.
Lightsaber abilities
Note: all of the lightsaber abilities are considered neutral force powers in multiplayer game.
Lightsaber Defense
This determines how well you block/deflect incoming shots and lightsaber attacks. As you can guess, the higher the rank, the best your defense is.
Lightsaber Attack
The higher the rank, the best you can push in lightsaber locks. Besides each rank will allow you to use different lightsaber combat styles (for more information, see the Lightsaber Combat section)
Rank 1(available since you get the lightsaber): Medium style (yellow)
Rank 2: fast style (blue)
Rank 3: strong style (red)
Lightsaber Throw (Alternate Attack key)
Use this power to throw your lightsaber forward. which will then return to you. If it doesn't, press the primary attack button to bring it back. In case you don't get it back after a certain amount of time, it will immediately return to you. This power is particularly useful against massive concentrations of enemies
Rank 1:(available since you get the lightsaber) The lightsaber flies forward in a short range, and spin slowly.
Rank 2: The lightsaber now flies in a more extended range, and spins faster. Plus, you can now control its flight path by aiming to the direction you want it to go.
Rank 3: Press and Hold the Alternate Attack button to make the lightsaber to hover in front of you. the lightsaber will accompany you if you move. When an enemy gets in range the lightsaber will automatically fly towards him. The lightsaber now spins much faster. In multiplayer, the seeking thingy is taken out, because using this against an enemy with a lightsaber would only make it to get knocked to the ground (your lightsaber, not your enemy)
Multiplayer-only Force Powers
Note: Some multiplayer-only force powers are dark side or light side powers, which means they can only be used by the player using the corresponding side of the force.
Neutral Force Powers
Force seeing (F12 key)
This power, when activated, will allow you to see your enemies trough walls. You will see their silhouette surrounded by a glowing aura. This will counter the effects of the jedi mind trick, and even let you dodge sniper shots.
Rank 1: you can see players trough walls and counter the jedi mind trick for a short amount of time.
Rank 2: same as before, but duration is 2 times longer.
Rank 3: same as before, but duration is 1,5 times longer. Plus you will now automatically dodge sniper shots.
Kick
Yap, you saw well. You can actually kick your enemies in MP. (In fact, this is not a force power. You actually need Force Jump at rank 1 or higher to do this) Just run towards your enemy, and when you are just a few (very few) foots from him, quickly double tap the jump button to kick him. This is difficult to pull out, but it can be really useful.
Note: I've been told that there's another kick. If anyone knows how to use it, please send me an E-mail.
Dark side Force Powers
Dark rage (F8 key)
As long as this power is active (from 10 to 30 seconds, depending on the rank), you will gain extra speed (100%),you will fire faster (33%), and receive less damage from your enemies (-50%). The secondary effects are:
- You continuously lose health as the power is active
- After Dark Rage wears off or after your health gets to 1, you will get into a recovery state, where you will attack (-50%) and move (-75%) slower for a while. This recovery state always lasts 10 seconds.
Rank 1: 10 seconds of dark rage, 10 seconds of recovery state
Rank 2: 20 seconds of dark rage, 10 seconds of recovery state
Rank 3: 30 seconds of dark rage, 10 seconds of recovery state
I recently changed my mind about this one, you can actually be useful, but only under very specific situations, which I will describe in further updates
Force Drain (F11 key)
When using this force power, a red lightning-like thing will emanate from your hand, just like the Force Lightning. When hitting an opponent whit it, you'll:
- Drain his force reserves.
- Recover your health points :-D
Rank 1: A burst of lightning emanates from your hand. This will take out 10 of the opponent's force points and replenish your health meter (health not shield) by 10 points by second
Rank 2: An unaimed, continuous attack, which will drain 15 of the opponent's force points and give you 15 health points by second.
Rank 3: Lightning shoots in an arc, allowing you to hit multiple targets at once. Plus you'll drain 20 force points and replenish 20 of your health points by second.
A great Force power, which used at the due time can change a battle's tide to your favor. I like to use it against players who use force powers a lot ( Powers such as Force lightning, Force grip, Protect, etc.)
Force Team energize (\ key)
This dark-side power recovers your ally's force reserves (within a certain radius, which depends on the power's rank. using this power will give 50 force points to one allied, 33 to two allies and 25 to 3 or more allies.
Rank 1: You recover your allies force points within a x radius
Rank 2: You recover your allies force points within a 2x radius
Rank 3: You recover your allies force points within a 3x radius
Light Side Force Powers
Force protect (F9 key)
As long as this power is active, the damage you receive will be taken from your force reserves rather than from your health meter.
Rank 1: 50% damage is blocked, 100% of it is taken from your force reserves, blocks up to 100 damage
Rank 2: 75% damage is blocked, 50% of it is taken from your force reserves, blocks up to 200 damage
Rank 3: 87,5% damage is blocked, 25% of it is taken from your force reserves, blocks up to 400 damage
This little wonder is absolutely fantastic. A power to use and abuse.
Force Absorb (F10 key)
As long as this power is active, any damage received from other player's force powers will be absorbed and renew your force reserves.
Rank 1: 33% of the other player's power's damage is absorbed into force reserves
Rank 2: 66% of the other player's power's damage is absorbed into force reserves
Rank 3: 100% of the other player's power's damage is absorbed into force reserves
This power is very useful to counteract the old tactic of gripping and letting go over a pit.
Team Heal (SCROLL LOCK key)
Exactly as the force team energize, except it recovers health instead of force. It gives 50 health points to one allied, 33 to two allies, and 25 to 3 or more allies. The radius depends on the power's rank as it follows:
Rank 1: You recover your allies health points within an x radius
Rank 2: You recover your allies health points within an 2x radius
Rank 3: You recover your allies health points within an 3x radius
