I am droping CM I miss the lack of damage I do with rifles. As far as debuffs and things go its nice you can last forever with a jedi (master def) But Thats all you can do it last after about 30min fighting both of us at full power and mind I hit with a para and walk away. With rifles if i get the jump on a jedi I can sniper head shot and almost have them dead. I just miss the range had with rifles.
With CM you aren't trying to overload them with damage as much as you are trying to sap their mind to nothing. Personally I use a sliced Proton Carb and do pretty respectable damage that makes them need healing. I load them up with dots, paralyze, move out to 50m and once paralyze wears off I kd, crit shot, legshot and move in to reapply dots and paralyze again. The whole time I am working my heals and stims. Its a lot to managemaking sure you have all the dots applied and at the same time keeping your ownfood buffs on and yourself healed...especially with all the lag we normally get, but its workable. I tried the rifleman route and I just found nothing fun aboutshooting somebody I could barely see.

No you don't.. a single tick of the DOT would break the paralyze... so i dunno how you get out to 50 meters before the jedi roots and/or KDs you

Yes...I oversimplified and shouldn't have done that. A dot will break paralyze, but a state effect like thyroid rupture orelectrolyte drain will not and you should always lead with those.Paralyze will break as soon as a dot ticks, but because of thyroid and electrolyte they will be moving and attacking slower once free. If you apply dots before you run out beyond saber throw range the Jedi will pursueyou and try to kd or root you so keep some synthsteak or exo protein wafers hotkeyed in case they do that. There is noperfect "I win" formula and lots can and willgo wrong, but I think its more fun than shooting somebody you can barely see.

Thanks, but I already know all of that
