The above tactics are fine. But if the Jedi had to use cloak, and realises your following him, chances are he'll just head to safety.

Another problem I heard is if the jedi uses force cloak and then meditates he can maintain the cloak indefinately no matter how many people/NPCs are in the area.

Sorry you obviously have not used cloak anytime recently. Especially when you say you duel while cloaked. Anyone I have seen as well as my toon decloaks with any offensive type move I do, thus making you targettable by the person you attacked. Plus you can only cloak while in combat if you are 20+m from another entity (including your speederbike).


I don't usually correct posters but this one was just asking for it. Also why would a cloaked Jedi not be able to travel when not in combat? In combat with a aggro whether that is a creature, NPC or PC I would agree is a bug if it works this way, I haven't tried it out.


I guess under your interpretation of the skill that a rifleman who takes cover in combat is bugged as well huh?

Yesterday you could no longer meditate while cloaked, i don't know if thats been changed again though. Jedi cloaking in combat is not a bug. As soon as you attack while cloaked you uncloak, its honestly not that fantastic. If you take cloak you are short on something else, ie force run or healer or defender or even sabers. Sure its fun while the respec is going on, but i know i'm not gonna have it in my template, it means skimping on other important abilities.

Quick suggestion on this, make a macro with /target "Bob the Jedi" and put it in the toolbar. Easy and fast way to target them, cloaked or not.




That's what I did...

I created a macro:

/tar "Jediname";
/attack;

I change the name, depending on who I'm hunting obviously. If I happen to come across an AFK Jedi using Force Cloak while meditating, I simply pull out my bike, and a droid. ANYTHING and EVERYTHING will cost them force. Sometimes I like to hunt for hides and bones while waiting....if I 'happen" to run in the Jedi direction to continue the fight...oh well. The creatures are NOT attacking the Jedi, so it's not like it's greiving or anything.

Props to all you BH who realize this is not a bug, and instead of whining about it, dealing with it and coming up with legitimate workarounds.


Not "CM exploits" or Bomb Droids (as these are soon going to change), but like he above poster, getting every pet and Bike out that he can.


You can always tell the real BH from the respec/whiners, because of this type of thing. All you REAL bh can hunt me any time you want.

ya i was doing 180k ish mission, and i finnay found the jedi on dath,(chased across 3 planets) and she was right ouside the outpost, all of a suddne i get a tell "u looking for someone" lol was my target, she uncloked righti n front of me, scared the crap outa me. without my ushall 50 m lead on the jedi, i knew it would be hard.
I did a snare, to slow her down, ran back a couple meters, i did knockdown shot, and got a awsome 1k hit in. she got bkac up and did a heal, and charged. I proceded to do a snare, but it failed. The jedi was right on me, so i did firearm strike to KD her. I got 2 leg shots in and she was down to 1/4 health. Then she did a Kd on me and i was done tore through me like bread. So the morale of this story? always do /target and carry a bomb droid handy iWould of stomped her if i would of had 50 meters. Owell the death penalty isnt that bad now a days
not bad for a respec hu?

If I am in battle and I stay more than 32 meters from a B H can I still hit force cloak..even if I am already in battle against him or her. And also if they have your bounty and I am cloaked can they just /target my name and still see me?
