Just to clear up some confusion...

The Advanced Saber Throw range is a MLSonly special, with32m range and a KD, and is the second most powerful saber attack, slightly more damaging than head/body/leg hits (which all do the same dmg). Only Power Attack is stronger, but has a warmup timer that can be interrupted (much like duelist stance). The Improved Saber Throw is not nearly as strong, nor does it have a KD.

The damage on Adv Saber Throw was upped a couple patches ago when the cone attack was removed from it. The upped damage was the compensation for that.

you are correct, only powerattack does more damage than the master box saber throw

Thanks, I thought maybe I was slipping in my old age. On a side note - what's the action cost associated with this special in comparison with the other LS specials? One tactic I'm entertaining (if it's more action intensive) is to hit them with hemorrhage and then kite around while remaining in Saber Throw range to force them into wasting action.

Unless the jedi is double mastery Sabers and Defender, they're more than likely going to have supression(root) and wave(snare), both can land from 32m so it wouldn't be too hard for them to catch up to you anyways (if they know what they're doing, though it seems most jedi these days don't have a friggin clue). Saber throw doesn't seem to have much action cost, though I use it for KD more than damage.
