What do you mean, @Sabrina ? Pretty sure that at over 100 meters a level 1 Force user won't be able to make many effective Force attacks. Regardless, before it becomes more than it is, I've edited my post to include the word effective.

@Ecclessey can you show me where, as I can't find anything on the range. Saying effective or otherwise

Line of sight is an tricky topic because there are so many variations of line of sight, but rather than go through all of them, I will explain the general model for comparison by presenting a couple of examples. Grabbing something with the Force is much like grabbing something with your hand: it helps to know where it is.

If you are trying to grab something in a dark room (grab without direct LoS), it is best to know precisely where the object was before the lights went out. If the item is already in hand (breaking LoS by somehow blinding your opponent who has already gripped you) then you don't necessarily need to be able to see it. If the object runs into the darkness as soon as you touch it (an opponent manages to run around a building and their position becomes unknown to the attacker) then it is going to be difficult to reestablish a grip.

Level 1: The rules listed here generally govern what is possible for a level 1 combatant. Although capable of holding their own in most combat situations, there are some limits to what they are capable of. Some examples would include lightning and tutaminis. Although possible to cast lightning, level 1s lack the power of a true master and is generally incapable of killing in a single blast and will tire a use much more quickly than many abilities. Likewise, blocking a blaster or saber with tutaminis would be exceptionally difficult if not impossible.

It's more common sense than anything, but I'm not going to post pages of OOC for what is essentially a hypothetical. I'll remove the statement in the post and we'll cross the bridge when we get to it.. @Sabrina

Hey @Sabrina;

two things:

1) I didn't attack - as we're not allowed to in opening posts. Rud merely observed through the scope on his rifle. and-
2) Zeltron pheromones won't work at a distance of 126 meters.

Can we establish the lengths and height of the mines? I think the height of the mine should be about 5-7m and the width of the entrance be 15m(?) given my post of the “box” I’m hiding behind

Sorry for any stupidity of my posts I’m new to pvp, but I’m seeking criticisms and corrections if needed

@Ecclessey

Can you edit your post because my starting position is behind Sabrina, who is in the mine, I am also in the mine. Apologies for my bad clarity.

Willing to compromise if needed.
@Gian Greydragon @Sabrina

Actually, @ByakuyaXVTogami my OP clearly had my character watching you leave the ship and begin your walk towards the mine, even going to a point that the distance between us was 100 meters.

That's also the moment @Gian Greydragon activated his jetpack, which you both chose to react to.

Your post stated that you took cover in the mine, which also per your post is a convenient 135 meters from my position.

The way I see it, your post had you crossing that extra 35 meters to the mine before you take cover. If you had chosen not to try and meta your character out of my rifle's range you would've been fine in terms of taking cover as you could have placed the entrance to thr mine much closer.

Hope that made sense.

Thank you for clarifying. I’ll definitely use your distances as my characters’ current location as you shoot.

Anything about a possible map to be drawn to help visualize the current situation, though? @Ecclessey

Actually, what is your distance from me while shooting me and your distance when you are landing behind the drill? @Gian Greydragon

I'll make edits to clarify distances. And as for the shits I took, they're aimed over the cover he'd taken at the exposed part if his back at that angle.
