thank you jeremiah!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wow...

utterly impressive, and really cool...the much trashtalked improved energy resist...

synopsis...

improved energy resistance, contrary to its listed powers, will resist energy attacks...lightsabre, blasters...much kudos go to jeremiah for actually testing out the power...

now, he has also shown that it will not stop force kill unlike stam's faq claims in gamefaq, but the ability to resist energy damage, much like toughness 2 will block physical damage, makes this the ultimate force protection for combat...toss in the poison block, and the protection from fire, and everyone should max out this power...especially guardians...

new update...bioware forums suggests it blocks everything, including melee attacks...wow...

Thanks UserUnfriendly. But the credit should go to the person who pointed it out to me in the Bioware boards. Can't remember the posting.
I never checked the rolls anymore after reading that. Just used it and noticed the effectiveness of Improved energy resistance in terms of no to little damage inflicted by energy damage dealing enemies (physical damage inflicting enemies like Rancors on the other hand

).

ah...high con, high str enemies nortoriously are vulnerable to insanity attacks...

the best disabling force power attacks in the game is in the fear series...insanity, after much experimentation is a easy to max out low level series, with insanity at level 12...and very strong, very tough creatures, almost never make will saves...and even if you're max light, its a CHEAP force power...i sure use it a lot..

actually all 3 of the disable series have their own benefits...statis will slow without save, and push will hurt without save...

but for dealing with big bruisers, or even dark jedi, a bit of insanity is utterly useful..
