Talk:Force Burst

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

Would someone please mind explaining what the power actually does? I don't think my English is the best, but I really don't understand what the power does. :S

I have my own theory of the power. I don't think Force burst is real, but rather Force Wave. I think Force burst is just some person's interpretation of what, as mentioned in the article, Qui-Qon and Obi-Wan use in the game. As for the "green hue", I think that's just an added game elemant to make the power more visual, seeing as Force wave is telekinetic and has no residual color. I know that Force wave is quite powerful and has a much larger range than what's presented in the game, but I believe the reason being is so that they don't make the power too strong.

Anyway, it would be great if someone could clear this up. PJ 17:33, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Actually, if I remember correctly, Force Burst, is Force Wave, it's just that some games such as Empire at War and Star Wars: Miniatures uses the name Force Burst instead. Generally, this is in the usage of Darth Vader, so I used to consider it to simply be using Force Rage and then letting it out, so that it's different from Force Wave in how it's used. However, since Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan both used it, it's probably the exact same thing as Force Wave. Cyfiero 05:50, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
