Hello everyone I need some feed back here on all of this.
I took my MBH Master Rifles Pistols 0003 and Medic 0020 out last night for a full night of hunting.
I am wearing a full suit of 8000 recon armor with 75% armor break on it. I also have +25 to healing efficiency and +25 to rifle speed. Here is what happened.
My first mark was a killed in 2 shots....yes two shots. I got paid 226k which means he was a full template jedi.
Advanced Sniper Shot for over 2200 damage then Advanced Critical dead. Most likely he was AFK, but as a long time BH thats not a get out of jail free card heh.
After having a 2 second battle I got another mark....here is where the fun begins and I need advice or comments.
Tracked the mark to Talus and found him sitting with his AT-ST right above him. Since I was on leave I wasn't not worried about faction pets...well first mistake is that faction pets even when you are on leave will attack you...fabulous. After taking on his AT-ST it was just him and me.
Now I had eaten Breath of heaven, booster blue, crispic, Caf, everything and anything to give me an advantage I had in me....but I just couldnt hit him enough.
Not once during our fight ...WHICH LASTED OVER A HOUR..I AM NOT KIDDING was he in danger of dying. I could heal any damage that he was able to do to me as well with my bacta jab and stims (plus would startle him if I had to heal..if it could stick, if not I would take a steak).
On and on this went back and forth, I was using a ALS 1200 damage (pup) on it but I just couldnt land any consecutive shots on him to get him into a healing loop. I ended up wearing out his force at least twice and I know that he had to use a holocron to get his force back, but he would just switch to his ALR and shoot back...which in all honesty was hitting me WAY MORE then he should have been. Even with holding his rifle I couldnt hit him with any good combos...that was the frustrating part as a Master Rifleman I was loosing a rifle battle...with a jedi holding a rifle (they should add novice rifles required to all rifles to fix that).
At the 45 min bench mark we both had to run into our inventories to start slamming on our crates to pull out more food, I had to act fast and I have like 5 of each items in my backpack in a mad rush to get more food out not thinking this battle would take this long.
What could I have done differently, I dont know maybe try using a Kinetic Rifle? The battle could have gone on for another hour but it was late and I was just frustrated (as he was I am sure) and I just left.
And I tried everything, try the Root, KD Advanced Critical, torso combo, but either it would miss...or saber block. And shots that were landing were just not having the kick that it needed. I tried waiting for a BOOSTER DOWNER on him then try to land a KD with low action on him then pour it on...but cant hit (as a double mastery holding a rifle????) Where he would just have /follow on me and default saberhit.....which is all they have to do. Was a very frustrating battle lol.
My questions to you guys/gals are this:
1) Has this happened to anyone else?
2) Does it seem right that you can kill a full template jedi in 2 shots in 2-4 seconds / then have over a hour battle with another (not even sure what his temp was) (nice combat upgrade)
3) Any food, tactics, or weapons you might think I should buy or use?
4) And finally anyone know a good armor smith...need my armor repaired now lol.
The nice thing was during that whole battle...not a single word was spoken...for over a hour lol. Finally I got a tell that said..."Do you know how much time you wasted for me" Which I replied "LOL I was thinking the same thing"

thats the thing with one on one battles vs full templates with mdef...they can go on indefinately. It is now more of WHEN you catch them rather than HOW. IF they are pvping or "busy" and forget food/spice etc that gives you the edge.
Even then I had a half hour battle vs a mdef and everytime he got low on mind he would just force supression and run off to regen. I wouldnt give up though
he ended up logging off in a house after the tef expired. I think he thought if he kept running i would give up. NOPE! If your not gonna face me to the end then you gonna have to sit in house or log out sucka!

You guys could be right about the Master Defender. He never used AI but I never had him down far enough to use AI. He wasnt a MLS either judging by his saber toss, and i never once saw advanced Armor Break or Power Attack....of course I was always on the move. He did have healing 4 though and channel, force run, supression, ...maybe even force armor...not sure. Was to busy running and healing to ask him what his temp was 
Aura and Valar were kicking off like crazy though.

i agree with the rifles thing. they need to bring back the real certifications like back before the CU went live. or change it so when a jedi is using a non saber weapon all jedi CA'a and bufs and powers become null and void while holding the rifle, if they already do they my bad. I never understood why a jedi or even a smuggler should get the same damage out of a killer rifle as a master rifleman and the same with commados and pistols and what not. they need to bring back the real certifications.

With all those, he wasn't a double master. Prolly something like MDef/LS 0404/Enh 4004/Heal 4000 which would give up 13 points to put in something else.

fought a master Enh/MLS 4004 healer for 1 hour, he was knocking me down and doing statis every 45 seconds after the first half hour, to run and meditate, finally died with the KD recovery bug
Fought a MDef/MLS / 3000 heal / 0002 enhance for 20 min last night, she ended duel cause one guy that was driving by tossed me a stim healing me for 0 point of damage, she cried for non fair duel that she was owning me ? 20min full health /clap
If jedi dont have defender or their force aura down, you can 2-3 shot them sometimes.

/nod. Get used it. You'll never know if your next fight will go on for 1 (or 2!) hours.
Mau.
