Thread: I Can Match Jedi, But

I have stopping shot in my template, I find it useful at the moement the Jedi wants to run, usually if he takes off, a stopping shot that sticks will be enough time for me to finish him off. I can think of about 5 instances this happened. So having that in your temp can help, otherwise it's just a streak your on. You might find that your next 10 fights none of the them run....
I don't have any root in my temp, and there have been many times when the difference between them getting away and me finishing them off was a KD at just the right moment, right when they're at 48m or so. So far, I've landed all those shots the several times a situation like that has occured, so I'm happy.

OK so after some more experimentation, I've decided to change my template to MBH/MPistols/CM4xxx
It just seems like I'll be able to work that temp better, since the debuffs didn't seem to do much to the Jedi.
the snare is excelent vs jedi. spechialy vs a Mdef/Mls.
the speed debuff is also good, but if you only have 0004, hit paralyse, then drain, then run.

Dude you have a perfect temp, that is my exact temp it works really well!

They always run, cloak, orlog after like 5-10 mins of fighting. It's gotten to the point that I would be winning ALL of my missions, but I can't seem to beat them in a timely fashion.
I just had a mission on Lok, where a Jedi was grinding gurks with a group. I engaged him, and fought for maybe 10 mins before he probably got low on force and ran. Same thing happened like twice, then he logs. Should I get a higher damage pistol, I'm using a sliced Featherweight now. Also, knockdowns are getting pretty useless since they can heal while Kded. I once got him to about 1/4 health and KDed, where I would've finished him, but he heals to full. I know about the 1.5x more powerful thing, but this is getting ridiculous. They shouldn't be allowed to log off without penalty. Any tips?
BECOME A JEDI
and tough if he runs follow him if he logs wait for him or kill him as he loggs which is kinda immoral but TOUGH

Just face it dude...Jedi are teh pwner's...they dont have much of a problem dealing with BH's. A full templated Jaydi will win 90 percent of the time. can i have your stuff now?
Not necessarily. I'd say that I win against full templates 80% of the time, and the 20% is a mix of flukes (about 10% of that, and 10% of me doing something stupid like not going in with my PvP foods or something.)
So you've lost to Jedi, but a Jedi has never beaten you?

I would cancel my account....or go jedi..
Maybe the first, never the second.

Jedi are better...BOTTOM LINE. If you think you can kill full temps 80% of the time, i'll tell you why...its because you engage them while they are fighting or low on force im sure. OBVIOUSLY BH dont have to fight fair..but for you to say that jedi are not the best profession in the game just seems out of line.
Except if you're a MBH/MCM.
Kryptis, I don't know your kit, but the only Jedi who tend to beat me have good pre-cu pearls or are exceptional PVP'ers. Full-templated Jedi aren't that much of an issue for me, it's down to skill at that point. I spent 12m, getting med-warfare +25, bio-supp +25, AB sliced RIS, a nice kinetic FWG (1007 max damage). I use CM Buffs to increase my damage output. Every inch of my kit has been refined, and will be refined further.
My template kill rate is about 50/50 at the moment. And a lot of Jedi run, there's not much I can do about that, except take more of a stalker approach to my hunts.

Some people just aren't cut out for hunting Jedi. And Jedi aren't required to fight a BH, they have more to loose and nothing to gain. I ran from one last night because I was really tired and ready to log out. But he insisted on being persistant so I killed me. He was a MCM/MBH, died in less than 2 minutes and didn't even pose a threat. And he was hunting his own faction just to anger players too he said.
Anyways, sometimes we just aren't in the mood to kill a BH. I even told him I gave him a chance to walk away.
