What about tossing in a root once they hop up, followed by another KD and another Startle? Can the Jedi be KDd again? Will the Startle work a second time?




Root is usually the first strike. Right as that is wearing off, I land a KD and either follow with a Snare or Stratle. Usually by the time the Snare wears off I am ready to repeat, give or take a few seconds.

cannot do any abilities while on their back and startled -- they cannot force heal. when you do a /sniper + /KD + /startle this all happens in 3 seconds. most jedi cannot react in time they would have to get the heal in a split second before you startle them. you're already at startle by the time they know what's happening. the startle prevents them from standing up and deals some good damage while they are knocked down. when you follow the startle with adv. critical you get two high damage shots while they are on their back -- damage multipliers in effect.

I beg to differ, nothing has ever stopped my jedi from healing except paralyze. And no he is not a noob jedi, he's a full template knight.

I think improved stoping is 10 secs...


ANd what happens is KD/startle/ then startles lasts logn enough for the sniper shot warmup (and any damage breaks startle so ti breaks on sniper). After startkle breaks the jedi usually gets up and runs towards you, so /kipup is a good way to stand, as you hit them again. THen maybe try a root.

Can I ask what your template is? It sounds like you have some Rifleman (Startle), Pistoleer (Root) and Carbineer (Snare).

Do any of you lead off with a boomdroid? Is it possible to call(another)a boomdroid while the Jedi is on his back?

Rifleman has a snare, it's Kneecap Shot.

Oh and to the Stoppingshot timing question, I believe the basic Stopping Shot roots for 10 seconds, and the Improved might be 15.

so startle shot is still bugged?





You're immune to its effects for 20 second after the powerl wears off. That's not bugged.


Oh topic: Yes, use it all the time. Especially against those "I can't click buttons" macro playing Jedi.

I also use startleshot when the jedi manages to root me. It's a great joy to watch a jedi just stand next to you after landing their root. Of course their root lasts longer than the startle so I follow upwith a KD.

  • Master Bounty Hunter

  • Master Rifleman

  • Pistoleer 0404

The "snare" is Improved Knee Cap shot. Not the best Snare, but effective enough.

No, never lead off with a bomb droid. It is all about timing! You want to get in a big strike first, hit the MEZ, hit the bomb droid, and hit another big strike.



  • Send Droid in (usually takes 4 seconds to close distance gap)

  • Sniper Shot = 800 damage

  • Detonate Droid

  • Stratle Shot = 0 damamge but causes delay

  • Wait for Droid to explode = 1,800 damage

  • Sniper Shot = 800 damage

Total Damage = ~ 3,400


It depends on the Jedi, but if you can catch them off guard on that first strike and get in the MEZ you might be able to pull off the Alpha Strike.
