-*Every Jedi can do the Jedi Jump, channelling the force to [[jump]] forward like unskilled spell at level 1, basic at level 5, skilled at level 10, and expert at level 15.  This technique is reusable after 50 turns and uses up 25 energy.

 *At experience level 5 they gain the charge saber skill. Using this skill they can recharge their lightsaber for power*((technique_level/10)+1) turns and needs at least 5PW. If they are at least technique level 10, they have a 20% chance of channelling the force perfectly into the saber, thus giving it an additional 1500(!) turns. In order for the technique to succeed, the Jedi must remain uninterrupted for 10 turns. Regardless if it succeeded or not, this technique is reusable after 500 turns.
-*At experience level 8 they get the telekinesis skill. Using this skill they can pick up remote objects, disarm certain traps and spring other traps. This technique is reusable after 250 turns. The trap/object must be seen to use this skill.

 ==Additional abilities==
-*A Jedi can use the force to throw and regain his lightsaber, similar to the [[Valkyrie]]'s ability to throw and catch [[Mjollnir]]. This is valid for all lightsabers, not just [[the Lightsaber Prototype]]. The difference, is that it requires 5 energy points instead of a strength of 25 and lightsaber skill to be at least skilled. Then there is a 99% chance of the lightsaber returning, and a further 99% chance of the Jedi catching it back. If [[confused]], [[stunned]], [[blind]], [[hallucinating]], or [[fumbling]], the Jedi has 0 chance of catching it back. If failing to catch it (impairment or the 1% probability), there is a 50% chance it will land on your feet, or hit you instead. If two-weaponing and wielding the lightsaber in the second hand, after the lightsaber returns, you'll be wielding only the lightsaber. If two-weaponing and the lightsaber was the primary weapon, throwing will work as expected.

 ==Strategy==
-While a Jedi has some nice advantages in the early game, including a powerful weapon (melee and ranged) and means to burn [[Elbereth]], it is more difficult than most melee roles. In the early game, the Jedi should fight with his lightsaber, but only turn it on when necessary so as to conserve charges. The ability to burn Elbereth combined with a weapon that is not subject to corrosion makes kicking sinks and splitting black puddings with a junk weapon a great way to level up and gain some intrinsics. Since wearing anything other than a robe will nullify most of your advantages (including your lightsaber), you should try to find the best non-body armor you can and tough it out with the robe. Like playing a monk, an early wish is better spent on something other than dragon scale mail. A [[shield of reflection]] or [[amulet of reflection]], [[speed boots]], or a source of [[magic resistance]] are all good candidates. If you decide to wish for a quest artifact such as [[The Sceptre of Might (SLASH'EM)|The Sceptre of Might]] or [[Crown of Saint Edward]] for your magic resistance, be sure you have enough hit points to withstand SLASH'EM's augmented [[artifact blast|blasting]] damage.

 Given that Jedi are lawful, they should dip for [[Excalibur]] as soon as possible, and take advantage of the extremely strong lawful artifacts ([[Sword of Justice]], [[Snickersnee]], and [[Grayswandir]]) that they can gain skill in. They should also sacrifice for [[minion]]s as soon as possible.

 Once the Jedi gets past early game and gets the awesome quest artifact, they can become a very powerful melee and ranged fighter, albeit not much of a spellcaster.
-The [[reflection]] granted by [[the Lightsaber Prototype]] compensates for the penalty that Jedis have when wearing body armor. Even without the need for [[silver dragon scale mail]], a Jedi still needs a source of [[magic resistance]] and [[drain resistance]], two other extrinsics commonly conveyed by dragon scale mail. Magic resistance is commonly obtained using the cloak, but the other two are problematic.

Magic resistance is commonly obtained using the cloak, but the other two are problematic.
 Note that in [[SLASH'EM]] artifact weapons can be dual-wielded, but when doing so you only get the extra wielding effects of your primary weapon, thus one cannot simultaneously have [[Excalibur]]'s drain resistance and [[the Lightsaber Prototype]]'s reflection. For this reason, a player might want to consider an [[amulet of drain resistance]], or accepting the body armor penalty at higher levels (where it doesn't significantly affect gameplay) to wear dragon scale mail armor.
