If you're looking for a Jedi kililng Pistol as the title of the thread suggests then you'll want a weapon with the highest minimum damage you can find + it needs to be SAC capped. With a SAC capped pistol you don't have to worry about using a SAC PU and can instead focus on a damage PU to increase your minimum damage even further. Also you'll want a Kinetic Pistol to bypass the Jedi's PSG. I would suggest a Featherweight FWG5 for a higher damage cap + you get Pistol accuracy mods.

Depends upon what sort of weapon you have. If it's lacking in speed (2.2+) go with a full speed slice. If it's under the slicing cap for damage you may also want to consider going full damage with 1 in critical and speed. This would raise your minimum damage while also giving you an increased critical chance. Finally if the speed looks good (2 or less) and you have damage to high to slice then go with a full critical slice.

what is the best pistol that i can use against jedi?

FW FWG5

armor?

Any recon armor with 8k+ Energy resistance that is 75% Armor Break Sliced.

should i use loot componets to makethe pistol and if so whichj ones do i use and what stats?

Get some good Reinforced Casings with around 170-180 max damage and -.79 speed. Also try to use a Pre-nerf Scope with -.79 Speed Reduction.

what attacks are the best for jedi pvp?

You'll want to use Stopping Shot to root them when able, Intimidate Shot to keep their damage output low, and maybe even Warning Shot to keep their Defense lowered. Your most damage shots will be Torso Shot and Advanced Critical Shot from MBH. Also don't underestimate the value of Ranged Shot- it's great as an attack to use while the cooldown timers of your other specials are recycling.

what kind of pups should i use?

If you get a SAC capped pistol then you should be ok with a Damage PU. If you find that you can't manage your action then use a SAC PU if absolutely necessary. Remember to use Booster Blue Spice, Blob Candy, and get doctor buffs before every fight.
