Force Upgrades

Force Upgrades

This is the Force Unleashed way of leveling up. Per every level, you get 1 Talent Point, 1 Force Point, and 1 Combo Point. You also get points from Jedi Holocrons. Once you have enough points, you can choose what ability you want to make stronger. The higher the rank, the more powerful/farther reaching/better the ability/bonus.

Force Powers and Force Combos you cant even use until you buy them. Choose wisely, as it may decide your fate for the next level.
