Tummieshave 100 spacefor food, and 100for drink. I THINK it takes 30 minutes for your stomach to empty competley, may be as low as 20 minutes though.


Your template sounds good. Im a MBH MRM 4000 cm, and i do great against all templates of jedi. I even thought about going for pistolleer just because the sac is sooooooo much lower, and the damage on rifles isnt enough to warant such a high sac cost.


What i would do, and what i still may do myself is this: Get high min damage Featherweight FWG5 with 65 SAC, slap one of the 33% damage powerups on it Ignore the speed increas because speed really doesnt matter to a MBH MP. that should crank up your min damage to about 500 or more. Keep using advanced crit, torso, stoping shot as much as possible. Low blow when he get close.


As for healing, make sure you get soe bacta spray and bacta toss enhancers, and youll heal for about 1200 with spray, and 1500 with toss ((only use toss if your rooted or the jedi is rooted, becasue the animation stops you for 3 or 4 seconds. a macro is usefull to targfet yourself with bactatoss)) Also keep som good stims on you, and always use a stim for your first heal to get the timer going.


For food and spice: Vegasperine adds 100 melee defense for 15 minuts or so. The +40 ranged accuracy food i forget the name of is good. Some mando wine will cap your stats in one shot. Keep a booster blue or3 out to use as necessary to help your mind and action regen too.


Youll do fine. And keep me informed.I may follow you to pistoleer lol.

going for this template myself



I do have a few questions though...after a KD or root the target seems to be immune to that effect, I'm wondering how many seconds it is.


I'm planning on using a whole load of synth/exo cakes (just like the old days), dodge food, melee/ranged defense food (force powers are considered ranged right?) I still got loads of crates of parwan and smugglers delight too (I quit right before the curn and just came back).


ruby biel seems a must as you can stim while kd. and pixie of course



just a question...I've found some food with +block...never heard of this before, is it class specific or can it be of use to anyone?


one more question for the zabraks out there...is equilibrium broken? I tried it 3 or 4 times and it never did anything.....

This is the exact template I'll use for my alt when I unlock Jedi in 6 weeks or so.


My current temp is MBH, Master Carbs and CM 4000, but I really miss the Stopping Shot.


I also plan on having both Ranged Cybernetic arms, so my max range is upped to 50 with a Scatter or FWG.

Yeah regen caps at 200 for foods. It might be 250, but in any case, the system wont let you eath anything other than a single mando wine.. Not on any other food ive tried anyway. Regular brandy is good too, but not quite up to what mando wine can do.


Its usaly 65 filling though, so that could limit the other drink choices you have, like the accuracy drink you were talking about. (pyro)


I usualy save a pyro for when the jedi is very vulnerable, like when hes out of mind, or out of force. Or running away... Usualy thats all right about at the same time lol.


Your fights will average about 15 minutes, so food management is important. Ive also been thinking about taking that incap reduction food before a fight, and leting my stomach empty before engaging my mark. Poping up after a 2 second incap really throws off the jedi after he has just dumped all his macros to try to db you lol.

Stay away from vegasprine - it dosn't work and is a known problem with the chef correspondent. Once it's fixed it will be a must use food, but for now it is a waste of stomach space.


The cap on food stacking is +200 for action and mind regen .. however, I have been able to stack tea-+180 mind regen with culuso swirl-+50 mind regen for a total of +230 mind regen .. so who knows.


Equillibrium from Zabrack DOES work. It comes in very handy when my mind runs out. You can only use it like once every couple hours. If at least one of your ham bars are full, it will jump up your depeleted bar to almost half way.


I also use a nice macro that pumps me with Pyro +204 accuracy once every minute and protein waffers once every 20 seconds.

could you send me a PM with the command on how too ingest foods and drinks? It would be very helpful, thanks a lot



I'm currently also grinding my WS alt, so i'm hoping to get both done by the end of the week, and I hope to be hunting jedi a couple weeks after that.

Drag the Pyro and waffers onto your toolbar .. mine are in slots 03 and 13. The name I use for the macro is Defensefood. So your macro will look something like this:


/ui action toolbarSlot03;

/pause .5;

/ui action toolbarSlot13;

/pause 20;

/ui action toolbarSlot13;

/pause 20;

/ui action toolbarSlot13;

/pause 20;

/macro Defensefood;


This macro will give you a Pyro every minute and a waffer every 20 seconds. Adjust the pause times based on the duration of the foods you are going to use.

from experience, I say, don't rely too much on macro's, imo they only make things more complicated


eg. your protien waffers will mess up often, as they still might have a few hits left when the macro is up, possibly leaving you vulnerable for almost 20 seconds.


and the pyro might fill up your stomach, preventing you from taking other food when you need it...



imo if you always want to be on protion cakes you're better of making a 2s macro, if the protien buff is still active you won't take a new on, if it isn't you will.....window of vulnerability: 2s tops


I was wondering, after taking exo cakes or synth, does it still stay active for an hour?

It does miss everyonce in a while .. but the way I see it, I'd rather miss once in a while and concentrate on specials and healing than keeping track of foods that only last for seconds.


As for it filling me up too fast, it takes it quite a while to do. Waffers are only 5 filling at 25% damage reduction and pryro is only 16 filling at 204 accuracy bonus. Once I'm full it's no big deal .. the food and drink will by far help me out in long run by cutting initial damage down greatly and boost my damage output greatly .. this, even in a very long fight, will only force my opponent to heal him/herself much faster and thus burn up force/mind much faster. I don't need ruby cause I'm CM4000 and usually I can beat my opponent before my spice/action mind food wear off .. so I really don't need any extra room in my stomach.


Synsteak and waffers don't work like they use to in the pre cu days. Now they are very short termed damage mitigation buffs. Synsteak is like 45% damage reduction/25 filling/and only lasts 45 seconds. Exo Protein Waffers are 25% damage reduction/5 filling/and last for up to 20 seconds. You get more bang for your buck with protein waffers in a long fight. Short fights, your better off with the steak.
