Hi, I'm relatively new to SWG (just made master scout/master marksman, medic) - I'm heading towards carbineer. I often fight unbuffed (short game sessions,cost & dislike of queues) and have looked @ ways to carry this off in a "buff happy world"
Currently thinking of this thx to everyones good advice:
1) 76% kinetic ubese (thx Billy!!)
2) Food - Scrimpi + Gruuvan shaal (long duration - allows "spamming of specials")
3) Drink - Brandy x1 + BE aitha as needed - heal as needed.
4) Throw adhesive mesh +ph. darts to keep creatures off me. Bone spikes to blind.
5) Emergency neutron pixie/muon.
With this combo i can hunt in ubese, keep criiters off me and spam specials and avoid those docs 
I'll save my money +hides for you guys instead 
I'll save my money +hides for you guys instead What would make it even nicer would be a helmet that has high kinetic resist with lower enc. Any ideas??? (that are affordable!!)

Best bet for a low Enc helmet would probably be a Kinetic Layered Composite with a good encumbrance slice. PVPer's don't keep the encumbrance sliced ones usually, so are usually pretty easy to find. A person might have to slice 5+ helms to get there one they wanted with a good resist slice, then they'll sell off all the others pretty cheap.
A kinetic layered Ubese helm would be a good second choice, but isn't too much lower in enc. But I think the 2x condition and much higher secondary resists on the comp make it the choice to go with.

I meant lower enc than kinetic ubese helmet......this is strictly for non-buffed food enhanced fighting (not on dath!!!etc)
e.g. does Kinetic chitin or padded have lower enc than ubese??
or ......what about a kinetic Tantel helmet??? (can u get 40%+ kineticon these??......i've heard talk of 45%)

I would reccomend an ubese helmet enhanced with NS shards ..... or possibly made with lightweight kinetic layers and enhanced with some good krayt scales. I have made both varieties and if you are on Lowca feel free to contact me.

I'd probably try to buy a Krayt Scale or Voritor Scale on the Bazaar (you only need 1, should be fairly easy to find). The get a Mabori Helm made. It'll be easily 30%+ kinetic and enc should be around 10-10-60 (just a guesstimate).
Chitin Helm are still fairly encumbrant unless you use Kliknik segments to make it.
I know Tantel layers are a lil buggy (I think the layers don't combine like in Composite) if you use anything other than Energy. Enc is around 20-20-110 (again a guesstimate, been a while since I played with Tantel)
