October 27, 200421 yr Akari I'm not sure if this was a bug, per say, or an actual rule: In KotOR, the AC bonus derived from casting Master Speed and Force Armor did not stack, but was capped at +10. Additionally, if you wore any time of amor ( including robes), you lost an addition 3 points of theoretical AC points. Has this been changed/fixed for TSL? Thanks.

Thanks. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It looks like if you use both of them, you get a bonus of 10, yes. The breakdown in script is: +4 for Master Speed +6 for Force Armor So yeah, it'll add up to 10. Wearing a robe didn't seem to cut into the bonus though, I had the same +10 to Defense with or without the robe. Wearing armor kept me from casting Force Armor, so I was only able to get the +4 bonus from Master Speed. Hope that answered your question! -Akari
October 27, 200421 yr Well, doesn't Master Valour give a defense bonus too? If so, would casting that along with Master Speed and Force Armor still cap at 10?

October 27, 200421 yr On a side note. If an enemy made a saving throw it would stay up the whole turn. This is troublesome if you don't know what the symbol is for the attack you want to do. Not too bad for Force powers but I couldn't tell if I was selecting HK's flamethrower or stun beam weapon.
October 28, 200421 yr The fighting is a bit fake. Like if I hit someone with a saber they get whatever many point taken off, when they should die. Missing would make it more relistic.

I just tested it now and they all stacked fine, so there doesn't seem to be any hard cap. -Akari

Because the manual that shipped with KOTOR 1 was pretty much useless in terms of information.

I don't know what's going on with the manual. -Akari <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They should pay you a bit extra to write the manual, since each time you've been asked to explain something, your explanations were clear and understandable. Unlike the KOTOR 1 manual, which didn't seem to tell you much more than the absolute bare bones basics.
