Awaypturwpn wrote: Yeah, Instinctive Attack is actually even more powerful than that: it activates whenever you spend a FP to improve an attack, not just on a Natural 1! But otherwise it works like Dono said: roll, spend a FP, roll again, keep whichever roll you like better & apply the FP as a bonus to the attack as normal. So, yeah. The extra FP from Force Flow could turn those ugly critical misses into better rolls! If you've got, say, a prototype weapon or an unstable lightsaber crystal, this combo is even more worthwhile for you Well, the beauty of the combo is that you can turn a wild miss into a palpable hit for what amounts to free, and could be done multiple times in an encounter if the Force is not with your dice. So while the feat can be used with any missed attack apparently, it'll cost you a FP on anything but a natural 1. And maybe it's the Real Man gamer in me, but there's just something oh-so-satisfying about the chance to turn a botched attack into a fight-ending finishing move  _________________ "If you've never seen an elephant ski, then you've never been on acid."- Eddie Izzard Contributing Author of the GSA Dono's Gaming & Etc BlogFollow me on Twitter at @donovan421

Are these good talents to pick up? My first impression is that with Force Flow you could get a FP every 20 rolls, as most of your rolls should be UtF or attacks... this might probably mean about 1 FP per combat... seems a pretty good talent imho but never tried... any opinions from the Forum Oracles? If you are a jedi and using Block and Deflect and lots of Force powers (ex: Negate Energy, Force Shield, Battle Strike), then you have a high chance of rolling a 1 or 20 and getting a temporary FP. _________________ Saga Edition RPG resource documents & reference tools:

Force Flow will be coming online soon.
Thanks
*beer* If you do pick up Force Flow, you can get what I call the "Never miss with a natural 1" combo. All you need is Force Flow and Instinctive Attack feat. If you roll a 1 on your attack roll, you get a temporary FP, which you can use to activate Instinctive Attack, which allows you to reroll your attack, take the better result, AND add your FP die result to the attack roll! _________________ Saga Edition RPG resource documents & reference tools:
