Will using a bomb droid damage a cloaked jedi?
Was thinking you could do area KD and then use bomb droids to finish the floored jedi off.

That sounds like it might possibly work. Try it and let us all know.

/follow JEDINAME is one example.
There are other examples, as many Jedi who have either died or logged out in frustration can attest.
Using any single-target slash command on a cloaked Jedi is exploiting. /follow is one of them. Dont do it.

Yes. Bomb droids will damage a cloaked Jedi since they inflict area damage. However, in the 5 seconds you have between explosions (at least) the Jedi is able to heal himself up to full. Furthermore, you will have a hard time telling your bomb droid to follow the Jedi without exploiting ("Follow other" needs the Jedi targeted), so your only option is to drop the droid on your seeker wp, run way, and start the countdown. Smart Jedi will either move away a little or use the time you have to spend close to them to attack you.

heres my solution to those stupid pansy cloakers:
bring your msl friend along and have him /follow the j3di on a speeder can't cloak then.
i can't wait until devs have this "skill" removed!
ORDER 66 FTW
DELETE ALL J3DI
Is anybody here asking how to prevent a Jedi from cloaking?
Would it be correct if I read the above as you calling me a pansy as I have Force Cloak? If so, I suggest you "take a step back from the computer before posting again".
i think it actualy means u r a pansy for running away from BHs
Good thing most BH assume a cloaker is weak and get a huge adrenaline rush when they see +Cloak+ at 50+m and then -Cloak- +Rooted+ +Armor Break+ right next to them
Aside from that, there are ways to stop a cloaker from cloaking, if some "I have 200% offense and defense and pound on you till youre dead" BHs lack the skills necessary to do it and expect to complete a Jedi mission in 15 minutes, their expectations when fighting a cloaker simply are wrong. They would have success if they actually stalk their mark and wait for an opportune moment, but a lot of BHs think its just about "take mission - chase waypoint - collect cash".
