- Proposal
- Make Force Meditate from the Enhancer tree also apply and/or refresh the Jedi Meditation buffs. Ideally, it would be cool to have the Jedi Meditation buffs under Force Meditation also be a bit longer (similar to how Doctor's are able to extend buffs, maybe multiple Jedi can meditate together, and if one has Force Meditate it allows both Jedi to have a longer med buff?. As a secondary possibility, slightly improve the stance effects, but this is not necessary for the proposal.
- Justification
- Force Meditate is already an ability centered around meditation and maintaining a Jedi's Force, so having it interact with Jedi Meditation Buffs would be intuitive and thematically consistent. Currently, Jedi have to separately reapply the meditation buffs despite having an ability that feels like it should naturally handle this.
- Motivation
- This is primarily a quality-of-life improvement. Having Force Meditate refresh the Jedi Meditation buffs, or allowing them to last longer under the effect of Force Meditation, would make management of the JM buffs much less tedious and provide some additional value to a spec not frequently played. It would also make Force Meditate feel more meaningful and connected to the Jedi Meditation system. The goal isn't to significantly increase Jedi power, but to remove an awkward piece of repetitive maintenance that doesn't seem to serve much gameplay purpose.
Add functionality to Force Meditate from the Enhancer tree that allows it to apply or refresh Jedi Meditation buffs, potentially increasing their duration when Force Meditate is used. This could also create an opportunity for multiple Jedi to meditate together and benefit from an extended buff duration. As an optional secondary improvement, the stance effects could receive a slight boost. Overall, this would provide meaningful quality-of-life improvements, reduce repetitive Jedi Meditation buff management, and give the less frequently played Enhancer spec additional value without significantly increasing Jedi power.
