Force Burst was a Force power that could be used by a Jedi or Sith. The strength of the Burst depended on the amount of time and energy put into it.
A Burst's size and intensity could range anywhere from huge and combustible, to small, but relatively deadly. It was usually semi-transparent with a blue or green hue, where as the Sith variant had a reddish shade. The sphere of Force energy sought out its intended target with the utmost accuracy and speed. This technique could be nullified by Force protection, Protection bubble, or set off course by a strong Force push, or even dissipated with another Force Burst. However, it was usually deflected by a well-timed Force shield. A similar, far more harmful dark-side Force ability is known as Force Destruction, where the user would unleash a Force energy using their body as a conduit.
