There are a total of 32 force skills available. In order to use any of them a player must be Force Sensitive. Most of these are currently unavailable and have not been finalised. Descriptions of how the skill is intended to operate is provided but these are subject to change pending combat release and further developments. Powers may be added or removed at any time. Using many of these powers requires Force Points and some are affected by the users armour. Also, many of them have a recharge time which means no force power can be activated during that recharge period.

Meditation allows the user to increase their rate of force point regeneration. This can be used both passively and actively. Passively, the amount of points recovered increases as they go about their business. if they actively choose to meditate then they will be unable to move or act but they recover additional force points every two hours.
Force Detection
Force detection allows the user to detect the force abilities of players around them. The force user must be in the same location as the tester in order to take the test. They will be given the option to reveal the result to the subject. They will proceed to test the subject and will either find out if the target is or is not force sensitive.
