Thread: Am I outfitted to take out a Jedi?
To answer your question , about being outfitted to take out a Jedi
Armor is the good , but as stated previously,
need to have that Armor break reduction, look up what drops shock absorbent paddings before going to a Smuggler.. gather up enough to get the helm chest and legs 75% Armor break sliced
For the Biceps and Bracers id get the Slice that reduces Decay , so they last longer and Mod them out with General Ranged Accuracy and Rifle Accuracy Armor Attachments. once you Cap on accuracy work on Speed and possibly Rifle Defense

Wear a 4 socket+18 Healing Efficiency Shirt , Mod it with appropriate Ranged accuracy and speed type clothing attachments..
Wear an Imperial PSG , gives extra energy protection and +10 general ranged accuracy and melee accuracy
On Weapons.. you may want to look into a LD1 rifle (quested on kashyyyk) or the Fallan Hyper Rifle (also quested on Kashyyyk) Both are exactly the same stats Kinetic damage rifles.. Id carry one of these and your ALR if the Jedi is wearing a Belt hit em with the energy weapon, if no belt they are likely wearing an Imp PSG so Kinetic may give you better results.. Id also suggest using +34% damage Powerups and ADK'n your weapon of choice
On Template .. tough call, but i guarantee You will need to be able to heal yourself man .. I would suggest going Combat Medic 4000 and using a Probot or Astromech Droid with a 110 Medical rating and Combat capable when you fight.. Roots are nice and all, but they do Miss ,then there is positioning Lag , and you cannot rely on them to keep you out of melee range and alive ... you will need those heals to fall back on ,
use your riflemans snare and your Bounty Hunter Knockdown for controlling the Jedis movement Knock em down , snare em while getting distance on them .. your safe zone is 35 meters (actually 32 but 35 to be safe)
use this food combo , i think you will find it works well
Blob Candy 180ish Action regen 1hr duration
Spiced Tea180ish Mind Regen1hr duration
Kanali wafer 180 health 100 health regen 1hr duration
that covers the regenbasics , low fill long duration , dont have to worry about them dropping or filling up your gut , take it in kadaara for that matter by the time you find the mark your stomach should be empty
pre-fight ,just beforeattackingid use
Pica Thundercloud Ranged Defense bonus (the way defense works now, it goes by the weapon you wield , , so ranged defense is the skill modifier you need to be concerned with against all attacks)
Deuterium Pyro big ranged accuracy bonus, unequip then requip weapon , do this just before engaging if possible, but there are times when the accuracy bonus will show the entire fight.. could be a bug could be lag
Booster Blue .. up to you , i use it , but a long fight anda spice downer can be treacherous , use with caution
During the Fight
on my Bounty Hunter/now Jedi i keep a couple foods on my toolbar for Mid fight Snacks
the Venerable , Synth Steak mitigation (Absorbs damage) .. use it when your mind is getting low from heals , , use it to get out of the "healing loop" , if you come up against a big damage/ fast/ low force cost PRE CU saber you may want to use it just to survive the onslaught if they get in melee range
Ruby Bliels , get the lowest fill Ruby bliels you can find like 15 or 16? right now the way its working duration does not matter .. dont abuse the Ruby bliel., dont automatically stim D then ruby Stim Ruby , use it wisely , your mind can regenbut once your stomach fills you are all out of tricks my friend
Ok and the final bit of advice i have for you, something that drives me CRAZY! , I cant stand to see a Bounty Hunter approaching, if i see you and have time to prepare ..you fouled up.. ,It happensall the time and its a shame.. BH that approach.. then stop and dunce around playing it off like they are just there to smell flowers and catch butterflies out in the middle of nowhere
If you are going to get within Radar range , do so using riflemanscover, or, come in blazing .. no half stepping , either you are in it to win it or just go home..dont waste my time or your time, Surprise is your greatest weapon , use it! wait till im fighting a lair of Pikets or whateverwait till ive all but killed the last piket , , wait till im sitting down and channeling ..dont fightjedi toe to toe , dont let them buff and food up before you attack, catch em with low health , low force in apve fight, dont attack them on hilly areas , pick your terrain . flat ground is the riflemans friend good for sniping, good for kiting , use it
good luck
All great advice. if you catch them regenning , tanking, or channeling and off guard with the rigt approach this cna be a short fight and in your favor .. if you mess up it can be a short fight in thiers. just be patient and pick your spots. as for your OP on equipment looks good anything that needed to be said has been said .. i would suggest the fallan or ld-1 as well.
