Just got back ingame after another stint in hospital & found out that we now have boss CL Marks.


I have tried to solo a few of these & have had my butt royaly kikt every time.


Howam Isupposed to Solo one of these guys, whenmy best "BEST", weapon cant invoke more damage than their heal rate & my 4 lousy conceal shots can't evendamage him for more than 5% of his total health...?


I have tried to go toe to toe with these guys after being discovered &I get wompped reeeal good, they seem do hit me for massive chunks of HP while I do virtually nothing to them and can rarly get their health down to 70% by the time I am KD'd & DB'd.


My Template is MBH / M Rifleman / M Mrksman / Pistoleer 0/0/0/3. All of my KD's Roots etc only work for a few seconds & my Conceals & Snipers do next to no damage to these guys. And if i run to regroup & heal, they also heal instantly, the second i get peaced.


I am hearing other people with similar templates to mine, saying that they are kicking arse,but given what i am experiencing, I truly find ithard to believe.


So whats the secret to killing these marks guys?


I Know that nobody else can touch my marks, but dose that include group members? Can i go out with a bit of back-up to help with these guys or am i going to have to re-think my template to get these guys down?

this is somthing i was talking to a guild member about..He was same temp as you and cant kill these boss marks.

All i have diffrnt to u guys is pistols ive gone up the combat med tree but i never need to heal myself when hunting boss marks.

All the food i use is snythsteak and have a i think 7906 set of tantlel armour with a psg..

i can stand there face to face and keep hitting crit/head/torso and underhand now and again.

Try some food ? get a psg ? bettter armour ? make sure you got a doc buff ?

i really have no prob killing boss marks and im am in no way a ubber BH like some on here jedi's always kick my butt

My guns are Laser Rifle with 318dps & speed 1.6 with 14.5% Wound & T21 with 309dps & speed 1.5.


My armor is Adv Comp with Kin 6176, Enrgy 4176, & 5176 for everything else"with no encumberance mods.


I have been using a mixture of the following foods prior to each combat:


Caf, Pica Thundercloud, Vayerbok, Pikatta Pie, Boffa Treats, Blob Candy & I also use my Focussed Crystal for an extra 3K HP's. But I still lose nearly everything in a few hits & have to run for it.


The only thing different here i see is the armor type, which to me don't make sence, considering that Comp is a BH Armor & should be made to withstand the kind of attaks a BH might encounter....Go figure...heh


I might have to invest in a few suits of Tant Armor & see if that makes a Difference.


Still, I'd love tosee Rifleman Weapons do a little more in this game than they donow, considering that the Profession its self seems to be very weak to me now, in terms of damage, compaired to the ammount of time it takes to set up the attacks that have any real effect.


Conceal & Sniper could be a little more effective that thay are i think, as it stands now, they do very little damage on par with other specials from other profs that have no restrictions on their use.


But I'll give it another go with some new Armor & see if I can't hold out a little longer nextime...heh


Thks for the Info guys....

Only thing important in your wapons is Damage and SAC. Keep the damage high and the SAC low. You may be running out of acton because of high SAC. And the Boss may be out healing your damage.

Ouch! The weapons used by the boss at range are eating through your armor. Also us a PSG.

No argument there. Still don't understand why a BH would be suited with Kineticly advantaged armor. But, you will have to use your other skills and certifications to utilize the best armor for ranged (energy) attacks.

I keep one set for Kinetic and one for Energy. Get a storage droid and keep the unused armor stored. That way if you do get killed, the armor will not decay at cloning.


Still, I'd love tosee Rifleman Weapons do a little more in this game than they donow, considering that the Profession its self seems to be very weak to me now, in terms of damage, compaired to the ammount of time it takes to set up the attacks that have any real effect.


Get the Cyber-arms. You will be able to set up your sniper shot from 80m out. If you have the time: you can shoot, wiat for combat to end an shoot again. Most of the time you can run him to half health before using "kickup shot" and charging in to slay him. (I use Kick-up insted of stand because it gives me a shot and chance for a little damage insted of waisting it on just staning)


Conceal & Sniper could be a little more effective that thay are i think, as it stands now, they do very little damage on par with other specials from other profs that have no restrictions on their use.


Advanced Sniper does a good chunk of damage. I've hit a turett for 4k damage with it.


But I'll give it another go with some new Armor & see if I can't hold out a little longer nextime...heh


That's the idea, get back in there and kill your mark.

Get good armor, get a PSG, and get Stims! Stims are now combat level in the CU, so you can use D's if you wish as long as you're level 65(i believe?).

Drink some ruby biel too, helps you take em faster, and don't forget to spice it up if you wish

Its CL60.. i make stim d's with 1165/18 uses.. drink some ruby with that and you should be able to heal fine.. and YES get some better armor m8.. my BH armor is 8k energy and those elietes can touch me... dont even need ta sip of the breath of heaven. also get your weapons with low sac high damage and get them speed sliced.. my scatter is douple capped damage/SAC and with a pup gives me a dps of nearly 700 and a max damage of 1067.. also consider droppin all of marksman except the ranged tree and getting the healing branch in CM. Another tip is get a tailor to make you a +16/+16 BE'd shirt and bandolier with some slots so you can through those nice CA's into it
