Proposal
If Jedi currently ghost when dying in BF, can we make it so they dont?
Justification
I preface this with saying I am under the impression BF, in the past, has been a gateway for a lot of folks into PVP on a bigger scale.
- If people choose to not run with jedi bc of uneven comps, then nothing changes for them.
- If people have jedi and want to run bf they can, without worrying about ghosting.
- If 'No Vis' is a caveat; Jedi would still gain vis, if enemy players report them, and maybe there's an incorporated rate of Vis gained from battlefields per round, or per the individuals damage/healing/etc
- This would open up the potential to make a jedi vs jedi BF also, maybe even make a map with that in mind
- I do not believe this would take from the (low) activity at Jensaarai, but help and support it - as well as the established pvp community
- 2 Saber Crystals are locked behind BF
- Some players don't have a second invested Combat toon to PVP
- Non Jedi have more practice at fighting Jedi (sometimes limited)
- FS Ranged classes; there are a number of very viable unique builds that can't partake as they would go blue

I also think this could open up a lot of potential for new content, and work symbiotically with a lot of new/existing things already in place!
Motivation
In aims of getting more Jedi involvement in PVP, and overall more involvement in Battlefields/PVP

I really like the idea here. This would allow people to do what I feel bfs are really good for. Practice in a group pvp environment. Another idea instead of a temple fight, it's a Jensaari training room/program? Just a spit ball thought.

While a lot of people may not like to do full on pvp, this allows an option to let people dip a toe in without denying themselves content for 18 hrs. Maybe a set amount of vis each run? Doesn't have to be known how much is given either. But the ability to look at different group comps in a more controlled environment would be amazing.
 
I am going to downvote. I love to pvp on my jedi, and I've thought going to BF would be fun. But after playing BF now for a bit I dont think its a good idea. Currently when we get even numbers it is still hard to balance with classes, skill level, and healing. Adding jedi to the mix would throw that all out of the window.

thats a fair point, however:
- If people choose to not run with jedi bc of uneven comps, then nothing changes for them.
- FS Ranged classes; there are a number of very viable unique builds that can't partake as they would go blue

further;
- 2 Saber Crystals are locked behind BF
- Some players don't have a second invested Combat toon to PVP
- Non Jedi have more practice at fighting Jedi (sometimes limited)

and lastly;
- I see this as a potential to remedy that exact issue you expressed - with even numbers, if you were the only jedi, or there werent enough to make a difference/viable-comp
- If people are more casual, they are already not worried about the same comps other veterans/hardcore-pvp'rs may be, and can begin to 'get their feet wet' in their own groups if need be
- More people partaking in Battlefields/PVP the better; may even encourage some to make that second combat toon specific for pvp
