Force Powers

Force Restrictions

 The currents of the Light Side and Dark Side cannot be wielded freely when the Force‑user is encumbered by armor. As a result, all Light Side and Dark Side powers are considered restricted while the character wears standard armor. Universal Force powers, by contrast, are unaffected and may be invoked with or without protective gear. A few extraordinary suits—most famously the custom armor of Darth Vader and Revan—were engineered to bypass this limitation. Such relics are exceedingly rare and hard to acquire, but they are not the stuff of myth.

Casting The Force

When casting the force you remove a number of force points depending on the level cast. Consult the table below. You can only cast a force power of 7th, 8th or 9th once per Long Rest. Additionally, Force Powers cannot be cast at higher levels, they can only be cast at the level they are assigned.

When casting a Lightside force power you use Wisdom as your casting ability modifier.
When casting a Darkside force power you use Charisma as your casting ability modifier.
When casting a Universal or Force Talent you use either Wisdom or Charisma modifier.

Lightside Force Casting

Padawan's and Echani Force sensitive are considered Lightside Characters and focus on Wisdom as their Force Casting Modifier. If they want to cast a Force Power belonging to the Darkside it costs additional force points equal to 1 + force power level. This penalty is reduced by the number of darkside points you have. Additionally, when casting a lightside force power, it cost an additional amount of force points equal to your darkside level.

Darkside Force Casting

Acolytes and sometimes other force sensitives are considered Darkside Characters and focus on Charisma as their Force Casting ability modifier. If they want to cast a Force Power belonging to the Lightside it costs additional force points equal to 1 + force power level. This penalty is reduced by the number of lightside points. Additionally, when casting a darkside force power, it cost an additional amount of force points equal to your lightside level.
