My advice would be to get a group and goto dwb. Belive me it is a hassle getting in there.

First off im not a respeced BH!


ok, so today I took a 80k jedi mission, easy right? iv killed 100k jedi with ease before the CU and the saber block nerf. When i got to my target I opened with charge shot and started useing adv crit and burst shot and cripple shot when needed to keep him back. I was hitting for at the most 300ish damage and I was useing a 443 modefyed DPS carbine. I was dead in less then a minute because A. my action was always empty and B. the jedi just heals everything I throw at him.


So how do I kill jedi post CU? Iv tryed pistols, carbs, rifles, nothing works


PS. please respond befor my 2 week repsec timer wears off, thx



EDIT: oh and im MBH/ MC and I do use a PSG

Im sure the BH will begin to flame you on this but :


1st PSG does not help against Jedi anymore. Stop using them for that.

2nd Jedi can still heal (If you have been playing BH as you say)

3rd Jedi who are Master Defender will be unbeatable 1v1. Live with it. Go hunt NPC marks and leave Jedi alone.

As much as a defender is virtually unbeatable 1v1, try grouping with some fellow BH's and all get the same mission. The better jedi's will take 3-5 bh's with good tactics but it can be done.....over and over again





I USED TO take Defense Stacker 2....do you?

I thought lightning does Elemental dmg not energy

I've yet to get t the stage where I can take Jedi missions, but here are some tips I picked up: wait until the Jedi is being attacked and let him take some damage. Then open up with the guns


Also, take some good food to bring your action back quickly.


Happy hunting, my friend.

Unless they change this with the CU, a recently killed non-FRS jedi will be 25k while a FRS jedi is 50k.

No one is unbeatable. Wait for that master defender to be low on health, or force, or (preferably) both, and completely unaware that you are there to kill him. Get spiced/fed/buffed, use the right tactics, and you CAN win, 1v1.

Hmm I thought Lightsabers did energy dmg now. Ok so what level bountys should I do post CU? 50k? That seems really low considering iv done much bigger missions pre CU and Iv heard of BH's soloing knights pre CU

Sabers do energy damage, yes. But PSGs only work on ranged energy damage, and sabers are melee, so PSGs don't stop em. This includes saber throwing. PSGs should work against force lightning, tho.

They say that Jedi represent the best the Galaxy has to offer, they are smart, noble, wise, honourable and selfless, an example to us all. Jedi, they say, are like Eagles.
They also say that Bounty Hunters are dishonourable, cowardly killers with no respect for life or honour, who strike from ambush and exist only to kill. We are, they say, like Weasels.
Bounty Hunters are Weasels, Jedi are Eagles ? I can live with that, Eagles may soar but Weasels don't get sucked into Skyhopper jet intakes.

ive gotten only 1 block of jedi since the cu went live,lost enough xp to master,i dont mind the bh visits,i just wish i could get one whos not a respec idiot who feels like he cant take a high level jedi cuz hes a wus,but a master bh who is a bh,not invest 3,pistoller rifleman and god knows what else,thinking cuz he took my mission,he automatically gets to fight,or he gets his money by me paying him off,saying "you chose to play jedi deal with it",well heres my response you chose to play bh,so if you dont like jedi running,oh well its part of the game,they dont lose 200k xp,we do,so wheres the "balance" here?


anyway any suggestions on how to get xp will help
