ah the pups i have are Dmg pups, think i should get speed instead? still, wouldnt my dmg pups give my weapon more DPS? for somereasn it doesnt, it shows the extra dmg added to the stats, but the DPS doesnt go up, and sometimes it goes down a tad

I have a 520 dps scatter, with a speed pu it's at about 720. I use underhand and adv. stopping shot to start off then torso / adv. crit. When they get back up (if it lasts that long) I will repeat. Also, something I have started doing more and more is improved duelist stance, right off the bat. You have to be stationary for it to activate but once it is you have it for 30 sec. With this tactic I can solo Jedi up to about 150k. Almost took a 156k solo the other night. 130k and below generaly stand no chance. The most important aspect of Jedi Killing, I believe, is controlling your opponent. If you can keep them rooted/KD, you will win. This seems to work for me and for alot of the more successful BH's on my server that I have talked to.

i thought my template would work well , using a scatter that does Kinetic instead of Energy.. you think i should try respecing? i love my pistols though

An alternative is to work really hard to somehow get great pistols, but that's almost impossible in the post-cu world. Smugglers use pistols and Last Ditch is a smuggler move--a great one, in fact.

Pistols are a tough call against any melee class because you will be close to their range all of the time. You get good defenses because of that, but you'll also basically always have them at your heels and one mistake will put you down.

How often did you need to heal? You're very strong defensively so I'd guess not a lot. That could be an area of sacrifice.

A Jedi only lives as long as their Force pool lasts. You have to wear it down by doing enough damage to make them use it up in healing (which also means they can't damage you back because they won't have the Force to do that). Once their Force is depleted, they are an easy kill.
