I'm going to make this clear from the beginning. I'm not the most well-informed or most up-to-date on Star Wars lore and canon, but I feel like this should at least be mentioned if nothing else.
Currently, our Force Sensitive character profiles have a singular flat AP value for both Canon and EU. I'm not here today to dispute their values, rather how we treat them. Now, most of my knowledge is limited to the movies and shows but based on what I've seen, giving Jedi and Sith flat AP values is a bit egregious considering the fact they get inconvenienced all the time by Bounty Hunters and straight-up fodder.
What I'm proposing might be controversial, but I think we should give all Force Sensitives Varies for their Attack Potency. Jedi like Mace Windu can go toe to toe with the likes of Darth Sidious, and yet we are to believe that his greatest rival is Boba Fett? Tyrannus has been bested by Pirates, Obi-Wan and Anakin have trouble fighting Cad Bane, hell, Ahsoka has trouble fighting Mando in Beskar armor.
The rationale behind this does not stop there, multiple times throughout The Clone Wars characters have made remarks about some areas having a stronger connection to The Force than others. In one of those places, Anakin singlehandedly subdued the Daughter and the Son. Mind you, in doing so he also performed a blatantly 4-A feat. Outlier? Maybe. But consider that Yoda was also only able to contact Qui-Gon fully after traveling to a planet where the connection to The Force was stronger than average. This isn't an AP feat, sure. But the Jedi amplify their AP using The Force this way, so it would not be out of the question that a location with a stronger connection to it would grant greater strength.
What this would change would be Jedi scaling to Bounty Hunter level characters normally, in a neutral environment. They would only be at their strongest showings at their peak.
For example, Obi-Wan would be 9-B, Varies between 9-A to High 7-C with Force Amplification.
Personally, I have no idea how this would affect stronger members like Windu and Sidious. However, I do believe that Sidious is so strong with The Force, he would be amplified by it almost always.Unless you want to count in the times he was almost killed by a Bounty Hunter or assaulted by a Clone. Windu I guess would only be Sidious level with Vaapad since it's basically Attack Absorption and Reflection.
I also do not have any idea how this would affect EU since I'm not savvy with it. So overall, this would probably only affect Canon unless someone knowledgeable on EU can tell me otherwise.
That is all.
