What amazes me is that people still don't realise that this is the textbook sociopathic answer.

I actually really like this analogy - you can get away with using a handful of tools (an Allen Key, maybe a screwdriver and a hammer) and get a table. Or you can use all of the tools (planes, saws, maybe a lathe) and get a more robust table, that is more stable on an uneven floor, and is the perfect fit for the alcove you want to put it in. Either way, you still have a table.

I notice a distinct lack of Welsh fears of ergonomic chairs in this thread.

Both promotional colour crystal styles (Black-Yellow and SE Black Green) have +41 stat variants

SE green-black too. And can they be available in a *slightly* less obtuse manner?

No. The game, as a whole, functions. These items, which people paid for specifically, didn't. Bioware didnt ruin SW:TOR, the entitled brattishness of modern MMO gamers did.

Yeah, heaven forbid they fix things that people have directly brought.

Yeah, they were trying to manipulate the midi-chlorians to have them create a being of pure Force. By killing another Sith over, and over, and over again. They got half of what they wanted. From what I've gathered of the ritual, and the various theories around exactly what happened, it would be much more likely to work if they'd tried to use the same technique to perform a "light" act (like killing a powerful Sith) rather than a "dark" one .

He brought balance by both dying, and killing Darth Sidious (one of the times) and preventing Luke from siding with him. He should never have existed. His birth was caused by Darths Plagueis and Sidious basically ripping the Force apart by sheer willpower.

The thing I was trying to get at with the Post Severing Traya questions was that depending on the exact nature of how that severing worked on a fundamental level could actually act a as a defense in Traya's favour. If the Sever puts a barrier between the midichlorians in her cells and the rest of the Force, midichlorian manipulation would be totally useless against her - the seperation works both ways. She can't access the Force, but the Force can't access *her*. If that were the case, Plagueis would have hands down, no advantages whatsoever against her (except for potentially being able to kill Sion).

But manipulation of midichlorians doesn't neccessarily require close proximity. Plagueis and Sidious kicked off Anakin's conception over a decade in advance on another planet. He wouldn't be able to yoyo her life back and forth like Darth Venamis, but he wouldn't need to.

Then advantage Plagueis. I don't mean who did it, but physically *how*. If it somehow affected her midichlorians, then she would have a *massive* advantage, because Plagueis' major advantage, midi-chlorian manipulation would be gone.

Is this Force or No-Force Traya? And how exactly was she seperated from the Force (i.e. if she's been seperated, did the process somehow restrict midichlorian manipulation)? It's an interesting pairing this one.

Do midi-chlorians count as a viable attack vector for Plagueis? (Or are they considered external influences?)

I don't think I'd ever "fall" to the Dark Side, because I don't think I'd ever qualify to be "Light Side". I certainly wouldn't fit into either the Jedi Order or the Sith paradigm. I'd like to think I'd just be pottering along as a Potentium force user.
