You do realize Force Barrier has been called a "bubble" in the past, yes?
Where is it mentioned/shown the bubble is telekinetic?
I am aware, yes.
I just want confirmation that it was some form of defense rather then simply visual evidence of Satele employing BM.
Edit: Are you able to confirm this for me are you just wasting my time as you are in ILS's thread as well?
Because what else could it be? Whenever Battle Meditation was used in any of the other games, or in SWTOR, it doesn't have a massive bubble around the beings imploying it.
It's only logical Shan was trying to defend herself since, y'know, Revan's attacking her and all.
Logic, Syn, logic. Try and apply it.
And nah, I'd rather not waste my time running around in tangents with you.

A visual representation of Satele employing BM?
When was battle meditation used in SWTOR aside from Satele?
I agree, that is logical, but it's stated in RoT that employing battle mediation leaves you defenseless. I just want confirmation that's what Satele did because it would be a good example of her own power and capabilities that she was able to do that whilst employing battle meditation.
I do try.
Well, then I'd suggest you not continue to take part in the conversation? I mean, it's pretty simple really.
Syn, the Bane novel doesn't even state what you're suggesting. Rather, it stated that all of Worror's focus was directed in Battle Meditation, so he didn't have any attention left to divert his power. That's different from saying Battle Meditation in of itself has no defense, which we know to not be true. Besides Satele Shan explicitly putting up Force bubbles to defend against Revan's attacks in the gameplay, Nomi Sunrider also uses Battle Meditation to fend off against dark side attacks. Note that Worror is merely an adept as using Battle Meditation, and can't alter large-scale engagements. The same doesn't apply to Satele Shan, who is not only far more powerful than Worror and thus has more power to spare, but is also a direct descendant of the greatest Battle Meditation practitioner in history, with Dar'nala and Zym musing she has the same "gift" as Bastila did.

I know. And he's noted to be a particularly skilled practitioner. I'm saying that I'd like evidence for Satele shielding herself whilst doing it because it would be an impressive feat for her.
Do these bubbles appear to be the same as the ones she has around herself whilst doing battle meditation?

Nah that just the BM animation br0.
It could be which is why I asked for evidence that the bubble has been shown to be used as a force barrier in other parts of the fight or that it is specifically labelled as one.
Edit: Like, I actually like Satele and I want her to have a better rep then she gets. I just want the evidence to back it up.
