Another tip is to make KD recovery your default attack. Doesn't interfere at all with your regular fighting (unless you happen to use ranged shot as default attack a lot) but the moment you go down it will try to get you back up. Basically, unless I get hit by the bug (in which case it takes bit longer) I'm doing the standing animation as fast as possible when KD'ed.
oh now that's jus cool, cause u dont even have to have it on ur combat bar then
It's a gamebreaker. I've participated in replication opportunities, sent in my combat log, and reported names and exact battles at least 25 times. At one point I'm sure it was "just" a bug associated with adv saber throw being executed rapidly back to back using macro, people not realizing that macro's (or rapid keyboard presses) allows them to bypass the cooldown timers of some skills with some sort of priority that exceeds the timer checks made when using mouseclicks on the toolbar. Thus once this cat was out of the bag - like the ability to execute saber power attack once every 2 seconds instead of every 6 wreaks havoc on warmup and cooldown timers.
The problem (bug/exploit) comes when the BH attempts to use kd recovery and you end up in a state where you cannot attack the jedi anymore, you can heal and run but all your attack commands have that gradient greyish slow pulsing look to them. This has been an issue for over 2 months now. I've received CSR responses indicating development is aware of the problem and working on a fix, I say BH everywhere send a strong message ...
Adv Saberthrows used in exploit fashion which prevents the BH from attacking after a KD Recovery is a
GAMEBREAKER !!!
FIX IT NOW !!!
