uhh what aboutrooting back w/stoppingshot? or snaring backw/keecapshot? or eating food to move faster as well?
if the jedi tries to get away you have viable options to stop them, unless they can cloak

Yes, this is what a decent player would do agasint those tactics. I would prefer a rush to the agressor unless I'm getting hamered and having issues with Action and Mind where I woudl then make for a structure to hid behind.
A bh who uses this tactic may need a distraction. I would look at a cheapy pet or a Droid with healing eff. The droid wouldn't last long but it would serve its purpose to distract and/or confuse the Jedi's actions.

good job on branching out and using skill...
CM has ALWAYS been a profession for those who want to be UBER but dont want to invest anything. . .
I was a MCM pre-cu, pre-CM nerf v.1, and hated myself...sure, I could area poison, disease, etc but it was cheap. . . sure, i could win A LOT but it took ZERO skill. . . when i was overt, people wouldnt even fight me b/c they knew they would lose to cheap poisons.
Same thing with the Dueling DoT fools . . . DoTs were for people who had no skill; they would loot a DoT geno or Pike and thought they were UBER . . . didnt even need to master a prof in order to win, you just needed a good DoT.
When the CU hit, they did away with DoTs. . . they reside solely with CMs now and they are STILL cheap. . .
If you want a good reputation as a PvPer or BH, drop the poisons...keep the heals but drop the fire and poisons...they make for a cheap win. I respect no one that kills with poisons cuz its not YOU who won, it is the DoT
Doesn't metter what gets the job done. But since you are talking about respect, most BHs don't repsect 99% of the Jedi thanks to your starport monky brethren.

i mentioned this template in another thread, and i just respecced (as close as I could due to lack of elite pts)an alt to see whatit can do..
im testing it right now w/o +25 rifle speed/defense tapes.. and it is extremely nice.. and now im considering a switch from pistols..
my rate of fire is slow compared to pistols, but
snipershot > stoppingshot > headshot >criticalshot > headshot > snipershot > kneecapshot > stand up and kite >headshot > criticalshot > stoppingshot > snipershot > headshot > criticalshot > headshot > snipershot >
etc... is extremely effective... you also have underhandshot in your back pocket in case the jedi catches up to you
jedi can't do anything unless you miss.. whichisextremely nice.. yet i do run out of action much faster... when i run out of action w/my main's template, the dots still tick away while i regen action so the jedi is still forced to heal but I rarely output enough burst damage to get a fast incap.. fights last a while
the healing is no problem, I currently only have +5 more healing efficiency in my template and I do fine... and the root + slow + KD keeps the jedi out of range to attack... making you not need the heals anywho...
if CM ever got a nerf, I would expect this to be the new FOTM... what would jedi cry about then..
This has been my alt's template since prior to the CU.

It takes a lot of pvp skill and timing to master this template though. You need to be lag free for the most part and know which foods to take and when to take them. My average fight will extent to 5-10 mins before the Jedi runs off. The only problem I have is with damage and if I cant kill the Jedi with the initial attack (which would consist of sniper shot + KD + Crit Shot + Head Shot, then I know the battle will draw out to either him running out of force or me running out of stims
With this template I have learned that I could really come out with the upper hand if i managed my foods better meaning not using up all stomache space too quickly. If I can last the first few mins without using any foods, then I will be good.

actually this template has been around for a while..... and there are several guys i know that have some success with this.
Wanna try something that has NO healing at all?
MBH / MPist / Carb 0440
Tons of defense, great sustained damage (kinetic pistol and legshot/crit shot), and throw a couple ranged arms in and you have the best kiting ability every.
Yes it works, i have beaten a few knights like this and destroyed and ebay guardian.
i tested that out, its no where near as effective as any of the before mentioned templates imo... and you go thru stims like candy which gets pricy...and 30 secs between heals?im looking for the MOST efficient & effective...actually im not even looking, this thought past my mind as I was in another post...and I wanted to see it in action
and like i said this has been making me think of a change.. not that I was looking for one, it was just that damn impressive.. like i said if they did something to nerf CM like make it cost another branch of medic or such.. I would be respeccing to this build..
