I hate to sound totally dumb but I'm pretty new:


What is "kiting"?


How do I know what my title is?


Thanks for your help!

Kiting is keeping a mob at a distance while shooting it. This is got its name by shooting and running away from a mob, it looks like you're flying a mob kite. This can also be done by the Yo-Yo method. Yo-Yoing is done by shooting a mob, it comes charging, warning shot, it runs away, shooting at mob when its far enough away to allow a shot or two and a warning shot, and repeating until mob is dead.



You're title can be found on the community screen(CTRL+P default key map or as the little three person icon on the menu bar). Go to the character tab and it'll display things like title, language(as of last patch), badges, crap like that.

1) Do we know for sure that the ability to open the FSCS is based only on mastering professions? OR Is it based on other in-game events like faction promotions? I guess what I'm asking is: Has anyone opened a FS slot without joining a faction, playing a themepark, etc...?

2) Do you think that the Devs would ever "cap" the number of Jedi per server? A lot of people are going after FSCS using the holos so I suspect that we'll see more and more Jedi in the coming months. Do you think that the devs would ever say "Ok there are X number of Jedi on this sever, lets turn off the ability to unlock the slot for awhile?"

Honestly? No.

The public outcry would be insane, and the months of grinding to Jedi is money in the bank

The answer to your first question is yes, some people have opened the slot without having joined either faction.


Tough call on the second question, as of now they seem to be content with letting more people open the slot, even helpful by giving away holocrons next week to hasten it along. I cant see them doing this, announcing that holocrons are in the game to stay, and then putting a limit on the number of slots they allow to be opened.

For AP, you could try buy it, some people are far more willing to reply to shouts for help if they are getting cash in hand. You could find someone else who needs AP and do a trade. You could pick up other low level skills if you are having trouble with pure Artisan training, for example pick up ranged support one, there are lots of people with loads of spare combat xp who might be willing to let you teach them that over and over, or pick up hunting one or exploration one and do the same (you get the idea). You could join a guild and return the favour when you can. If you have two accounts you could train yourself. All I can think of right now. Good luck.


If you aren't happy with the vendors you get in Artisan you will have to venture into Merchant.

Mindhit1/2 cause mind bleed and are stackable, both should be used

Headhit2 yes use it.


Two-hand Spin attack vs. Two-hand area attack ?

I do believe spin2 is better than areaAttack2 but same damage as areaAttack3


Dizzy attack ? What is the question - use it on all pvp and npc's. does nothing to animals

Stun attack ? Yes use it, can't hurt, only helps


Good stats on a Power Hammer and a Scythe?

Regular PH like 120min 450max speed with slice somewhere under 4.5

Scythe around 100 min 250 max (? not sure) speeds get down there around 2

Yeah, i do know that stun and dizzy are good to use, but do Swordsman have those attacks?


I cant find any dizzy attack while go through the boxes and the only stun attack i can find i an area attack.

I have also noticed that there is no knockdown attack, but that shouldnt be any problem if i can use dizzy and posture change.

I think the only thing that prevents more folks from going to Rifleman from what I've read are the range factor that you need agreater distance to be effective and also the fact there are no benefits from using rifle in the BH tree. You get no added bonuses or specials from BH using rifle.


I have a friend currently building MRifle BH tree. He seems to love it and keeps a little medic for PvE. I feel the constant need to tinker also, but if you're happy with your template there's no need to change just for the sake of change.
