If you are using a scythe that is for Swordsman and in that prof. you need battle armor. You need to unequip the scythe and use some kind of TK weapon (preffered is the Katarn Knuckles or the Necrosis nightblade. Oh, and btw if you get down that far in the rryatt trail i gotta say....Burst run forest..Burst run...


you are a doc so you can heal as you run and once you get to where you are going hurry up and find what you need to find. cuz the trando's at the bottom are even harder than the spiders and the wookies. if you die after you get your quest item...just clone.


You don't need to be doc to heal yourself anymore. you can use stims even without medic or doc abilities. You can use stims depending on you conbat level. at level 60 you can use stim d's once every minute. If you take a drink of Ruby Bliel, it will cut the time between stims (1 minute) in 1/2 (30 sec).


I'm TKM / Master Swordsman / 3/4 medi / 3/4 brawler and novice doc.

I am at the Rryatt Trails to get the Katarn Knuckles. What should I be using during the trials to get the knuckles?

hehe.. Ok, I havea dumber question. What is CoB? Sorry, it has been a while since I have played.



Oh, Center of Being.. Yah, it is on.

Center of Being. This is your LIFEBLOOD! While it is running you have greatly enhanced defenses and you will take a lot less damage. As a TKM it lasts something like 40 seconds (don't remember the exact time atm).

CoB lasts for 45 sec. The macro i have doesn't work. does anyone have a working macro for CoB?


If you do not have any good tk weapons, i suggest you put on some armor, use your scytheand try the trail out again. a blaster fist while good for other animals isn't very effective on the animals on the Rryatt trails.

You aren't doing anything wrong. You should be able to kill one spider at a time and if you utilize some good strategy you might get by two at a time but no more. Two spiders and a Feral Wookie will kill you. I don't think your template can solo that level by trying to kill everything. You have to utilize Melee Hit along with Improved Head Hit and heal inbetween quite a bit. Take some Blob Candy and Booster Blue and make sure you buff and keep CoB running with Power Boost.


There is a space where only the Feral Wookies spawn - no spiders. You should be able to solo 2 Feral Wookies at a time and three if you do it right. As for the spiders - just run. Keep running. Until you find the place where there are only Feral Wookies and let the spiders incap you - then they go away and you get your ~24 Feral Wookies. (Near the end between two bridges - don't remember where exactly.) If you run into the Black Sun area - you're dead and took a wrong turn.


As for your template - it's fine. Not sure why you have the xx2x on Doc - I'd move that to sword personally. Your template isn't designed for solo work so you really need to take a friend or two with some ranged or a Jedi if you have one. Personally I have a similar template (MDoc, TKM, Sword 0103 I think) and did Solo down to the Katern - which promptly kicked my butt so I'll take friends tonight.


The level after the Feral Wookies I got lucky and found a spot where I could pull one of the xxxxblood thingies at a time.


Again - take a friend or three. I've read where some have solo'd the Katern but you won't with that template. This quest isn't designed to be solo'd.


I say you aren't doing anything wrong - well actually you should be doing more than 350-400 damage. Melee Hit (with CoB/Boost) should do ~300 damage but Head Hit/Critical Hit should do over 500 or so. Unless your Scyth is quite nice I'd go bare handed and use the sword hits you have. I forget which specials are on which line. Since I have MDoc I have limited Sword specials and have found that I use Head Hit and base Melee Hit almost exclusively with Armor Brak, some KD and Dizzy? from TKM. I'll try to update this with details when I get home.

well i can start by saying welcome to the bounty hunting world and it is fun and can get into intense situations with a jedi i been in many where my fingers were shaking hehehe.


ok now here is how it works forget what u see your friends do now about time your ready to fight jedi there will be some new changes to the bounty hunting against a jedi.


first you will not know who your going to hunt till you get there and you will have to be master bh in order to hunt jedi like i said forget what ur friends went through and such its out the window after the 19th or 29th i cannot remember when ever publish 20 is.


but here is how a jedi hunt works and always will work till they decide to change the terminal system entirely


before and publish 20 and beyond you goto the mission terminal pick your jedi mission then goto spynet operative and he will give you his or her bio signiture then go outside of the city launch your probe droid feed it the signiture and wait for it to give you a message that tells you what planet the jedi is on then you goto that planet and fire up the seeker droid then goto the jedi where the seeker tells u.


once u get there he will not know you have his mission in any way shape or form how ever there is a bug hopefully it will be fixed soon where if a jedi thinks u have his mission he will challenge u to a duel and cancel


what that does is tell him this "you cannot duel while being attacked" or something in that regards that means that u have his mission.


but what u do is stalk him and figure out a tatic he cannot attack u till u fire first so you can like wait for him to goto theed or something and wait till he decides to show off and have duels and pretend your just like everyone else watching him dueling he most likely will not notice u this way then u can wait for the right time to strike.


now i am not sure if you ever watch a jedi fight but next time goto theed or bestine and watch them duel you will notice their health bar will go from almost being dead to being almost full in a sec thats because of a force heal and there is many guides on this site somewhere that explains that and how to use it to your advantage.


but all in all each fight is diffrent you really need to come up with your own template of mixing professons and tatics on killing the jedi


the jedis are in general stronger but with cunning and skill you can turn the tables around quickly i had fights that lasted over 2 hours and i had fights that lasted 5 mins it all depends on what u have to deal with and such


if u get investigation 3 before the new update i would hunt a low level pawdwan first maybe about 80k would be cool meaning 80k payout on the credits of the bounty worth and see how u do if you hurt him too quickly then move up if not stay there till you can over power a pawdwan


when ur ready and with practice you can take on a knight thats how i done it i started with a pawdwan mission to see how i do the first time i got killed and its only because i did not know what i was doing and i never faught a jedi before at the time



one thing u will get alot if you kill jedi its what we call hate tells they will send u tells on how you made them lose xp you suck at pvp because you waited for them to get a incap from a duel or a mission then u just walk up and do a death blow hehehe i admit i done that a couple times but a bounty hunters job is not to be honorable if we were then we would we would find a way to go klingon wait wrong story hehehe anyways we are here to kill jedi any oppintinuty long if we do not use exploits or bugs or a 3rd party program that hacks games or something then we can kill when ever how ever we see fit if it means wait for someone else to hurt the jedi and we get a db for it so be it.



now for bh going jedi thats what i am doing


just do the required quest and such and just get jedi pawdwan and grind up jedi as u gain skills you will be dropping them


so when u get jedi and you unlock your free charactor i would start him up at bh right away



hope this info helps



good luck and happy huntings

I am about to begin my grind for master ranger. I just started a new toon last night for the purpose of being a BE and a Ranger. I wanted the ranger aspect of it so that I can track down specific creatures. But now I see that they are going to be changing the ranger profession entirely. So after reading the in development notes I think that the ranger prof is going to no longer be able to track creatures, is that right or am i just not understanding what they are doing with this. Also since when do rangers steal things? But my last question is, isit still goingto be worth it to grind out ranger just to have things drastically changed. I am new to the ranger prof and know nothing about it, but was looking forward to it. Thank you in advance for your replies.

I think it makes sense for Exploration to stillbe a Ranger pre-req. In that case it there would be two lines, Exploration and Tracking.

Your time is better spent Mastering Scout, if you goal is organic harvesting. Initial reports from the Devs are, /areatrack is leaving the game. Some of us are fighting to keep it in the game, and move it to Scout. only time will tell.

OTOH, it could be some time before we see these changes, Calc, and given that a good grind group can get you through the scout XP for Ranger in a couple of evenings (okay, four if you're lazy like me ) there's no harm in going for MR just now.

Or even 'just' the tracking line.

Organic harvesting was part of the reason but the other was the ability to track hard to find creatures for specific loot such as RIS armor components. But im going to try it out anyways. Is there an ETA as to when this change will come into effect? Some of the things inthe revamplook reallynice and would probably help out a Ranger/BE in the GCW for base take downs, which is 1 of the reason im going BE as well. But I thank you for the response.
