Bounty Hunter Archive

I have two accounts, and my second one is a master doctor. I have the doctor go with me on all my missions. It splits the bounty in half, but I've still made a killing in the past week. I've had several boss (I call them "ultra-elite") marks, and with the doctor's aid, I've had no real difficulty with any of them. I should note that my Bounty Hunter has no healing skills whatsoever, and I haven't found any good stim-packs (not that I've been looking for them).

And it does seem that the boss marks most often have nothing more than a jar of foraged bugs. Luckily, my Bounty Hunter likes to eat bugs.

Toughest one I had had a 38k HAM and Rifle Skills! Sucker was poping me for 500+ damage a shot. I got incapped twice before I was able to develop a new tactic that I can now use on Jedi missions.

My template is:

• Master Bounty Hunter


• Master Rifleman


• Pistoleer 0404

I stack up on Accuracy Food, +330 Health Food (w/ 200 action regen), Defense Food, and Damage Reduction Food. I leave ALL drinks out. I've been using Ruby Bile as my drink and take it once I hit a stim. As a result, I can use another stim instantly and can repeat this 5 times before my stomach is full.

Worked great!

EDIT:

Oh, I forget, I looted a slave colar! AHHHH!!!!!!

just a little tip: probot. group him and use him after your first strike. The droid effectively takes care of any and all regen by the boss mob. I grinded from mrifle/mcarbs to MBH and the droid made all the difference between it being touch and go to completely routine.

Just don't forget the economic factor. $50k for a bomb droid to help complete a $30k mission.

But, Joker has a good point, they can be VERY helpful if you have the funds.

Just to update what happened the next day. I went to try this boss again, i get there and the guy is there (same name, same place) only now he's not elite, just regular, and he's level 0. Stll got my 30k for the kill but I found it odd. Unless thats what happens if npc mark sends you to the cloner.

from wut ive been reading and hearing thats a bug taht happens wen u have a mark and log, also this bug seems to remove loot from tah mark and make it have no combat skills

Does the 900 mind buff focus crystal do anything now? Mine doesn't even say that add 900 mind anymore.

HeHe.

The Elites usually take me a lot of healing before I start making a dent in their health mostly because it takes time to fully debuff them. I haven't really come close to dying to any elites and I don't think any have even incapped me once. I have been chased off once by both Rancors and Night Sisters who decided to aid my mark but I just ran until they stopped chasing me and returned to easily kill my mark. Though I must say that the Rifle elites with energy weapons are probably my biggest challenge as I have been wearing high kinetic composite. But any marks with a FWG5 or melee weapon get very quickly owned.

Just so you guys know. I have been a MRM/MBH/CM and I find that my MBH/MCM/1001 pistols with 3 boxes in Ranged Accuracy Template is much better in a lot of ways. I played it for a while with out 1001 pistols but I find the basic stopping shot and added pistol speed helpful.

Your gun isnt the be all and end all if you dont have decent armor to absorb some of the damage the marks can deal u will have a hard time.

I agree about my gun but should be remedied soon. As for armor I have recon with 7000 energy protection, and either hi 5000's or low 6000's for kinetic

If anone needs help with bosses, read this.

I got the hardest npc boss for a mark I've had last night. He had twice the health of a gorax. I make that comparison because I killed one right before I fought this mark. I couldnt get his health below 50%. And even though there are better weapons out there, my scatter isnt gimp by any means. 948 max dmg, sac of 71. I even had my focus crystal effect (from a village quest) which I usually save for fighting jedi. He ended up sending me to the cloner when my mind pool finally emptied. I still have the mission though,oddly enough, so I will try him again tonight. I bought a bomb droid thing. Never used one before, but I obviously need more damage for this one.

Yeah,. and there health regen is thru the roof

FYI, Bomb Droids are useless in PvE because they only do about 1,800 damage (same as on PvP Jedi).
