- Force Sensitive Abilities
This is an idea I had for players who had unlocked Jedi (becoming Force Sensitive) and did all the work to do that, but didn't like or want to go Jedi. These skills would be "hidden" and every profession would have one of them, they would be in either the Master, or one of the 444x boxes.
When you unlocked Force Sensitive, they would now appear inside your profession skills and abilities, but only if you have the class itself. They only appear if you have the box trained but otherwise they are hidden and you have to find them.
What makes these abilities unique or special?
Well, one of the ideas I had for Master Bounty Hunter was an ability called "Kill Shot", it is a copy of Advanced Critical Shot (sharing the same GCD), but is more accurate and removes the latest Force buff off a target (10-15 second cooldown on this effect), a sort of a "mini breach" if you will.
A lot of abilities the professions use don't really affect Jedi much, but these new abilities would. The idea is that they would help bring normal players up, and it requires most of the work it takes to get Jedi (You need A/B/C unlocked and must be a Force Sensitive.).
These would only be upgrades to abilities already in the game, even if they are named differently.
Alternative Profession Ability Suggestions
Combat Medic: An alternative Thyroid Rapture that lowers force regeneration.
Doctor: An alternative version of Serotonin Boost that lowers force damage taken, but also force damage you deal. (Perhaps lowering the duration of force abilities in general instead; to not just hurt Force Powers.) The lore idea is you deafen your mind to the force using drugs.
Commando: Scorch; a new version of "It Burns!" (Not Burn Down!), that turns "+" defenses from skills into "-" defenses. It remains low damage, and is still a single target ability. It is not an AOE ability, this is for balance reasons. If you want a "Power" version, maybe it applies 2 stacks instead of 1 as well as just being way more accurate.
Berserker: An alternative form of Berserk that turns the damage taken into damage reduction.
Obviously, these are ideas and something I can only come up with in a short period before I leave, but here you go.

Not everyone wants to wield a Lightsaber and use powers, I understand they are an "alpha class", but why can't someone who did most of the work to get and acquire Jedi not also get cool stuff?

- Motivation

Force Sensitives are cool, and honestly I am quite tired of seeing so many Jedi. Lately it seems like I see more Jedi than any other class and it is sad to me.
Just an idea I had and wanted to dump before I forgot it and before I had to go.
