Oh wow O_O . I LOVE the layout of this tree! It's freaking amazing!

So you have to go all the way down the right to get to the rest?

Specialization: Juyo Berserker

This Guy is a Crit Machine who can convert Dark Side to Light Side and vice versa.

Unique Talents:

Inner Peace / Embrace Your Hate: 2 seperate Talents that let you exchange one sides destiny points for the others Once per encounter. (Game breaking awesome)

Vaapad Control: Spend LS destiny points to downgrade difficulty of attacks per point.

Juyo Savagery: +5 to Crit attacks per DS Destiny point in the pool.

These aren't all quite right. Books at home, so I don't have exact wording but:

Embrace Your Hate: Spend a destiny point to add damage equal to dark side points in the current pool to a successful melee, or lightsaber attack. Gain an equal amount of conflict. Usable once per encounter, per rank (2 ranks in the tree). Worth noting it also specifies 1 conflict per session regardless of ranks. Which seems ok since using it is a bullet train to the dark side.

Inner Peace: Once per encounter, flip a number of destiny points form dark to light equal to ranks in inner peace (2 in tree). Reduce your session conflict gain by the number flipped.

Vaapad Control: Suffer 1 strain to downgrade a melee or lightsaber attack a number of times equal to the number of light side points in the pool

Juyo Savagery: It's right, +5 crit per dark side points in the pool. No spend, always on.

EDIT:fixed the cost of Vaapad Control

Also, gotta say the tree layouts for Colossus and Joyu are really cool IMO.

Colosuss - 4 columns of what do you want to not kill you?

Juyo - A spiral with only 1 fork of "This is Juyo, this is Vaapad"

They feel intentionally designed, whereas a lot of trees feel pretty random.

So I'm assuming the release date for this is today, seeing as several people already have it a couple of days ahead of time. I thought it was next Thursday?

STR: Increase severity of applicable crit to affect by 1 per upgrade

Worth noting the base power is easy criticals, the 4 STR upgrades go: Average -> Hard -> Daunting -> Dead

So with relevant upgrades you can commit force dice to zombify yourself and friends.

I think the soldier version is funnier, through sheer stubbornness you refuse to die from crits. Potentially even outright telling the reaper to sod off when the job is done.

Nope. Went to “shipping now” two weeks ago, which is pretty consistent from that status change to hitting stores. Although, depending on distributor-to-store shipping, some may not have it until tomorrow.

The store managers in Seattle I have spoken to have told me they can’t sell ffg books before the release date contractually.

Is Cracked Jedha Crystal the only lightsaber crystal in the book? I thought each book had two options listed, and I've been anxiously hoping for stats on the Corusca Gem since

Jewel of Yavin.

Right. That’s a fairly common practice across all media. FFG’s release dates are generally Thursdays. Several stores in my area, though, have reported not physically receiving the books from their distributors until Fridays.

Come on, where are our release articles! I want to know the product numbers of the specialization decks...

... what? Don't look at me like that! It's an entirely normal thing to be antsy about! I'm not crazy, you're crazy :blink: !

Well if it's extra long we will know they just forgot to post all of your friends other articles!

Of all the powers I expected Warrior to get, one that essentially amounts to a heal spell was not one of them.

Darth Sion would like a word with you on the definition of "heal"

Huzzah! They are posted! *scribbles notes*

I just checked with both my FLGSes, and no books.

I would really, really like to see a picture of the Phydolons.

Oh come on, dude looks perfectly healthy. Might need a bit of lotion, but other than that, the spitting image of health.

Jokes aside, I pretty much just want this power to make my own Darth Sion.

this book does not seem to be available in Canada

I picked up my book over lunch!

It appears the big-eyed sentient in this picture is a phydolon:

No wonder nobody could guess what that is. The preview article says they are “new to the galactic stage.” My book is still in the mail, but I want to know:

How long ago was their planet discovered? Pre or post Clone Wars?

It doesn't say, only "relatively recently." I think that's to give players some leeway.

Mines being shipped to me. So it'll be here next week.

I was giving a flavour text not a blow by blow. The crux of the abilities as I see them. Having a character who can use inner peace / embrace to change some LS-DS was what I was geeking over. It’s not the entirety of it, but I’m not posting here to replace people actually buying the books. Thus why I didn’t break out tree structure etc. I’m sure someone will say it’s always been done, blah blah, but as a copyright agent I can tell you that just because it has been done doesn’t make it legal or right.
