right, im a TTE BH, i didnt respec, i ground my way up, i didnt start when the BH revamp started...i started before that, im no noob im just new


i havent really been doing any PvP before i got to MBH, and i got the whoopin' of my life when i first attempted this jedi hunting thing, since then ive realised im an idiot and started some smaller duels with TKA's etc 2 get my strategies up...


my problems so far...


i need a list of food/drink/stims to use....ive played around but its not working as intended...can u put them in a bar and macro the sucker? like a normal macro?ive found that jedi's gauge us by our stims as the first jedi didnt even buff when he took me...he just pounded me into a bloody mess


i understand that strategy is needed(sneaky, kiting,bomb droidsetc) but still....ive seen some BH's have some good fights and they have + to HP, increased AC regen, increased mind Regen...the works...ive seen stims applied...pyro...rubie....phew...i only have 1.8 mill i dont have cash to screw around to much, and i made the stupid mistake...of using assault armor!!!?!? against jedi (energy layered..but still) im MBH/MCM carbs 0400


ive heard about getting sliced combat armor (armor break,etc) ive got an ok'ish Elite carb, that does about 80% of the damage of some of u guys' standard unsliced carbs, i can get a perfect carb...but its like 5-7 mill so im just using my 30k carb with slices (speed? crit? dmg? - 403-895dmg unsliced) my proton is in my safety deposit box, waiting till i can get 10 mill for an ADK...


im sure there are a lot of us who would like ur knowledge oh wise ones of hunting....

Ok man, here's what I use for my fights. While I'm waiting for my probot to come back I eat ablob candy, a bofa treat, and drink some spiced tea. They all last a long time and have low fills. By the time I'm ready to attack my mark, I have an empty stomache. At our Kadaara starportthere is a kindly doctorthere running a buff macro. By the time I'm all buffed, my probot is back with the planet that the jedi is on. Now, right before a fight I hit my "PowerUp" macro that eats Vegespine, Cristpic, Pikatta pie and drinks a Pyro. I put the food in slots on my 6th toolbar in the order that I want to eat themand the macro goes something like this. My pvp combat toolbar is toolbarPane00.


PowerUp macro

/ui action toolbarPane05;

/ui action toobarSlot08;

/ui action toobarSlot09;

/ui action toolbarSlot10;

/ui action toolbarSlot11;

/ui action toobarPane00;


This swithes to my food toolbar, eats the food, and switches back to combat toolbar.


I also have a couple macros that I use during combat.Ihave a "UseStim" macro that works the same way, but uses a stim and then drinks a Ruby Biel.


/ui action toolbarPane05;

/ui action toolbarSlot22;

/ui action toolbarSlot23;

/ui action toolbarPane00;


The last macro the I use is a "EatSynth" macro that works the same way and eats a synth steak when I need it. (ie. if I get rooted or snared). BTW, I'm thinking of adding /duelistStance to this as well since I hit it at the same time anyways.


I would also suggest getting yourself a Proton Carb and get it sliced for damage and slap a SAC pup on it. Hope this helps.

I use a Kinetic FWG, it's got 65 SAC and packs 400-999 Damage with a PU. Most Jedi have a PSG so the kinetic rips through them, it takes a while to wear them out of force or mind but against any non Pre-CU Pearl Sabers, I tend to win. Need to revise my strategy for the 800 Damage Sabers (720 Damage + 80 or so elemental), I get beat so fast by them.

I prefer the Kinetic over the energy, I also carry a 1266 powered ALR. But the reduction from the PSGs and the SAC makes the FWG my weapon of choice. The LR is used for runners to root and kd, I also pull a bike to chase down runners and snare them. It also has +15 accuracy from the Featherweight, then +11 from the FWG, with mods boosting my acc heavily.
