Thread: Why on earth don't we get some kind of armor break?
Since we're now forced to have MBH to hunt Jedi, how about making that master box a little more rewarding? Like adding a special armor break shot? If they don't want MBH to become a part of every ranged FOTM, fine, make that AB effective against Jedi armor only.
jedi=melee asking for a armourbreak as ranged is like asking for a root as a melee person

Ok, so melee fighters have armor break, Jedi have armor break yet of all the ranged professions, none has that ability.

Like force suppression?

would armor break on a jedi actually do any good? Considering we don't wear armor?
Sure, it'll get past our innate armor a bit. but most don't even have much in innate armor anyways, and you still have to get past the defenses.

It's coming in publish 21 along with your "I WIN" button.
ForceArmor Break would be cool in MBH box, since all jedis got boosted forcearmor in publ. 19.
In fact jedi forcearmor cap at 10000, and the best regular recon armor caps at 8000.
So it would be fair with the armor break for MBHs. Jedi also got both ranged and melee skills in thier skilltree. So why wouldn't we also have it?

As already brought up before, the Jedi having root have at least some of the Enhancer 4xxx line. Nobody said Jedi are a melee profession - Force Power Wielders and Force Enhancers are ranged professions with Pistoleer range.

I can be a jedi and have a root, i can be a jedi and not have armorbreak, i can be a jedi and not have healing, its choices, you can pick up enough melee to get an armor break. Jedi is a ranged/melee hybrid where you choose roughtly 2.5 out of 5.0 skilltree's depending on how you dabble.
For instance i can only armor break you if you are within 5m melee range, i can spent 20 sp to get a 32m ranged attack with my saber but i lose 20 points i could spend somewhere else.
The reason for not giving ranged an armor break is that a commando using a flamethrower would be able to area armor break then area root which would be extremely unbalanced.

exactly
Cap is 10k aka 60%. As for ranged AB, not possible, ranged would become very overpowered. Yes, jedi do get some minimal ranged abilities to keep up with kiting, that is all.
