MBH
Defender 4/4/0/0 or 0/4/4/0
Powers 0/4/0/0
Medic 0/0/4/0
All jedi skills except cloak are passive skills and have no armor/weapon restrictions. Use cloak to get close, drop cloak,(force Aura if0/4/4/0,armor up and attack.

Yes, you need to have your saber on to use the Jedi specials. At least from my limited experience grinding a friend's Jedi. It's not much, only afew days thus far, but it gave me a unique prespective on the BH vs Jedi debate. As far as your template with a Hybrid.... You will need:
MBH: 121sp
6 Trees of FS Skills: 24 SP
That leaves you with 105 SP to do with as you will for Jedi.
That will leave you enough for 4xxx Healer, and 4xxx Enhancer for Force Run2 (you'll need it)
You could spend the remaining points in 2 rows of Lightsaber, or if you drop the enhancer, you could spend them in 3 rows + 1 box of Lightsaber.
I doubt that you will be able to take down a Jedi with this type of a template. You will not have aura, shield, or armor. FR2 may be enough to run away from a Jedi (certainly from a BH), but the 4xxx healer probably won't get it done either. 2 trees in LS MAY be enough, but you'd have to spend millions upon millions of +25 GMS and +25LS speed of your fancy.
Melee Def with the above: +95
Ranged Def with the above: +125
Still though... a template like this has got to be fun, since you can hunt Jedi and fight BHs who come for you! Imagine being on a mission yourself, and fighting a Jedi when a BH shows up and attacks YOU.
for the hybrid template 4000healer is probably the first thing you'll want. I'm not so sure about what else you said though. Force run two isnt needed. 3000enhancer would be a much better choice because you'd have forcespeed2 and force run 1. dont pick up any lightsaber. you dont need it b/c you should be using a gun.
*Note for the red part: You could pick up armor break 1 at 0200 sabers to do more damage but you'd have to skimp
elsewhere in the template
With MBH and your 24 FS skills you'd have enough for 3000enhancer, healer4000, defender0040 and would be left over with 23 skill points. Now sure you could move things around, you could not take aura and get Farmor instead... you know.
But basically my reasoning for not needing any lightsaber skills is that you should be using a gun. preferably a carbine or rifle.
You might say, "but then you wont have any weapon speed/accuracy". Look at the MCM/MBH templates. They've hardly got any extra weapons acc/speed and they do just fine.
MCM/MBH templates do ok because they can state the be-jesus out of their opponents. The defined template just can't really do much of anything. It's a widely known fact that MBH alone simply is just not enought to kill much of anything. Adv Critical is nice and all, but it's a high action cost special and cannot be relied on to successfully land on each instance. You could alternate sprayshot and adv critical, but that's asking for aggro related issues you probably don't want.
I was going more for a template that could pull bounty missions, and also play as a Jedi, most notebly, with a light saber. The template you defined, I think would still need force run 2, since force run 1 is slower than a swoop these days. In a BH vs ThisTemplate engagement, there would be no running from the fight without FR2....
