Always fun fighting boss marks
Agreed. I was so enraged after my mark's first retreat, I left for about 30 minutes or so to make a tactic that would work on him. And it did
Couple of n00bish questions!
How much are the boss missions on the terminals, Been pulling missions for 4-5 days and highest i've seen is a 20-22k Health.
What does the different colours mean that look like a surround the targets name? seens mainly silver and golds.
Thanks

Did two yesterday - having read this column i had no trouble at all:
1. First one, I got an NPC creature between us to aggro, which negated the uber regen he had
2. Second one, pulled my pet to do the same job
Nice work and great advice.
Here's how I do 'em:
Food: Bofa Treats, Blob Candy and Pixie. I occasionally use some crispic too.
Armor: 6k resist Rebel Combat armor and a 2334 PSG.
Weapons: Grievous Carbine and Proton Carbine (8% damage slice, rest in speed/crit - w/SAC powerup).
Healing: Stim D's + Ruby
If I see it's a 34k+ mark, I hit the pixie on top of my food. I'll call my non-combat pet dog (I'm still looking for a good combat droid), group him and then park him somewhere safe.
I equip the grievous carbine (60m range, ahoy!) and start my duelist stance macro. I then pop Rally - Adv Crit Shot opener, followed by states, bleeds and then KD. Then I'll usually switch out to the Proton for the rest of the fight.
The PSG really does work wonders.

i use pretty much the same tactics cept im mbh/mrifle/0303 pistol and some FS crap
start at 65m
prone, cover
usually 3 conceal shots folllowed by an adv sniper
stand
KD, startle, confusion shot, headshot,adv critical shot
then while hes getting upill hit the duelist stance
then i root and get back to 60+m wear him down with ranged/placed
I am a MBH/M Doc and don't have much difficulty with the high health marks, simply because I always have a buff, am a good healer, and can whittle him down to nothing and win.
Setup:
Grab the mission, get bio sig, blah, blah, blah.
Buff outside Kaadara starport with droid out (gives about 7 minutes more on HAM buffs)
Travel, seeker droid on landing, check initial location for nearest starport/shuttleport and travel, or call bike and drive.
Track mark, take blob candy/bofa treats/caf on arrival, reapply speed buff, make sure muon is on toolbar.
Equip HLR if LOS is good, otherwise equip power celled scatter pistol(capped damage, 77 sac, 10% crit slice).
Start DS macro, bacta infuse myself. Torso shot, KD, Crit shot.
Cycle specials, if KD recovery necessary, use ranged shot until action builds up a bit.
Bacta infuse once or twice more in fight, heal once if necessary.
Collect bounty/loot mark
I wear battle armor with fairly average stats, and equip a PSG. I use artisan foods because my main on the server is a master artisan/master weaponsmith/(master shipwright--not important to story)
I am not a jedi hunter, but have been told by someone in game that used this temp that it is a fairly decent template for doing so if you pick the right moment to attack ( can be said for any temp, heh).
