I forgot the names of the food/drugs but there is some mind food/drink that I take along with the spice, also when your mind starts gettin low use your Bh attacks as they take less mind (really very very little mind at all.

booster blue + mandolorian wine + canape is a good mind regen recipe. (action too)

Yeah the MBH/MCM/0004 Pistoleer IMO is going to be the FOTM.


I personally have run into what i believe this template is and they had very little difficulty defeating me. Their healing was more powerful then mine and the DOT's negated my Infusion and the damage they did made me heal alot. My damage to them was very little compared to their healing power. May not work on all templates but it works very well on mine.


IMO the healing of that template is overpowered but I don't call for nerfs on other professions so I'll just leave that to whoever decides on if it is or not. I'll have to figure something out against this template as I feel I am going to see it alot more come Publish 20

the only thing i do differently is i use ranged attack as my default and try to alternate debuffs/dots and attacks, i prefer the second option to open up, i always try to get up close, paralyze, add the mind regen debuff, apply the cm snare, then ctrl+click on ranged attack and start applying dots once i get some distance. once their mind is low i will let my action regen a bit and then switch my default attack to advanced critical, then kd them and tryand then alternate bodyshot and crit.

Yeah this is a nice template, good for me that i have heal states and a double master so attition odesnt work on me. The last CM that tried to out-last my force died with his mind and action on 0 and my forcebar at 58%

Can see this really messing up alot of Jedi though, MBH/MCM will be the 'easy' option for those who want to kill Jedi. If i was still BH on my main i would have kept my Pistoleer/MBH/smuggler template and gone in desperado style, more fun

I hope this does not become a FOTM template but here is my template (this is done with several jedi templates and I find it useful so feel free to make a template guide for your template).

Master Bounty Hunter
Master Combat Medic
Pistoleer 0004

(scaled from 1-5, 5 highest)
Offense: 3
Defense: 4
Healing: 5

Pros- The biggest pro to this template is the healing ability. MCM has the ability of 3 heals, but only two will really be used. The defense ability of duelist stance and MBH is pretty good. Add in the defense of 0004 pistoleer and it is pretty good defensively. If things get sticky you always have a root to help get some range. Advance Critical shot is the best range special there is as far as damage goes. Plus there is a root, snare, KD, states, dots and a whole slew of debuffs from MCM. Also you have a choice of either pistols, rifles, carbines or the LLC.

THE BIG PRO- To me the big pro is surprisingly not healing. It is the ability to use both your mind and action bars. Use your offensive CM abilities and then switch to BH specials when your mind gets low.

Cons- With only one full range template you are gonna lack some accuracy and speed. You are not held down to one range weapon type but at the same time you do not excel with any weapon either. With this template the majority of your wins will take a while, hence the Win by Attrition title. This will not be a quick kill template.

THE BIG CON- The lack of accuracy and speed is the biggest con for us. ALthough alot of accuracy and speed can be made up threw food and attachments it is not the same as a double master.


Strategy- I will not tell you all how you "should" open up with this template but will tell you a general strategy. There are two opening strategies to choose from for us.
1)The old KD power attacks trying to catch the jedi off guard or wounded and get the quick kill.
2)Get in close (this is what I prefer) start with sticking all the useful debuffs on the target, using paralize so they can't do anything then sticking the dots and getting some range. Remember after you stick the debuffs on, just before you go to your dots use the paralize in case you miss a dot they will not be able to attack.

After your opening attacks get ready because you will most likely get KD'd. After you recover from this go for a root get some space, go with power shots to wear down their mind/force. As soon as they get free from the root hit with a KD and go with more power shots (this does two things, 1) Causes them to use more mind and force, 2) Gets them mad cause they are not able to do what they want). Now they will get up and either try to run (in which case you will give chase until you can kd or root them again), or charge you. If they charge you run for a few seconds (recharge some action, and get them thinking they got you on the run) but let them close in on you and stand in close and fight in their face. After a few hits stick a paralize on them (this again is a mental move, get them thinking YOU control them). After a while either their mind, action or force will get low. If their action goes hit them with a KD and they won't be able to recover right away. If their mind or force goes unload with power attacks as they will not be able to heal.





use duetrium-pyro, there is some on valcyn that adds over 200 acc for 1 min


only drink it when there health is low, and your going for the kill.


bring a doc along to buff you up right before you attack.


go pistoleer 0/1/0/3

Nah I still think there are fair more other BHs out there. Most want two range masteries and just take 4000 cm. There are more and more coming though, because this temp can truly stand on its own.

Come over to Kauri. That is the only BH template running around. Maybe some MR's too but by far there are more MCM MBH's then any other.
