please dont suggest people play the consular, thats just cruel and unusual punishment, the story arc is SOOO boring

i would say its based on your level as he never does consume much health form a fallen enemy and the best way for them to prevent him from healing to much or to little would be to make it base on his skill level which comes from your characters level.

companions are retarded, get used to it, its better that he doesnt attack CC'd enemies at all than attacking them all because often you cc targets and want them to stay CC'd for as long as possible or until you are ready, i guess the designers made some negative effects stop companions attacknig and some not, and blinded is one that makes them stop. for example is there blind skills that DO break on damage? because i am very inclined to believe that they would jsut make companions react differant ways to differant afflictions not tailor behaviour to every incapasitating effect in the game as it would take them longer... just an oppinion

1 Soldier going above and beyond the call of duty can change the outcome of a battle, a full 6 man section can change the outcome of a war, add to this the fact that this section was form a small frontline base where 6 men is a huge loss of manpower, they were also being counted on to get supplies everyone needs. They also have a walker which is not somthing the small base would be able to replace easily. I mean yes it sucks for the poor men that have to keep fighting long after their service was meant to end, but the life of a soldier is never easy, deserting is a major offence as it risks lives, destroys the moral of the men that are left, no matter the reason it is the act ofd a selfish coward who is placing their own lives above everyone else... reminding them of their duty to the republic and their friends who depend on them should be light side and letting them run should we worth big dark side points... sorry if i was long winded guys, but i thought it had to be said
