Thread: Insane LS damage?

I fought a Jedi once, and every time he hit me it was for over 1k, I was on the defensive the whole fight...

I need to vent a little. I'm not here to further the rage and strife between BH, Jedi and the Devs, but I'm pretty aggrivated. Last night I thought I'd try out the new "nameless" system and see what happens. I'm by no means the greatest BH, but I can hold my own for the most part. I find my mark standing around running macros. Well I know that he's not going anywhere soon, so I figure I'll start shooting (at least he hasn't seen me). I'm on a full buff, with full food and drink mind you. I get a root off and start nailing him with Adv Crit and Imp Body shots. My recharge rate on my attack timers is so fast I have trouble keeping up. The root breaks so I snare, some knockdowns here and there. When the Jedi does finally get in range and starts attacking me, he's hitting for 800 to 1028 damage consistently. I checked my log later and saw that my pup'd Proton Carbine, around 900 max damage and a health 600 DPS was hitting for 97 to a max of 147 on this Jedi. I know my tactics weren't great (well not there) and I'm not mad at the fight as I did all I could to kill and survive, but how can we even think about competing with damage like that when we're hitting for 147? 1.5 times more powerful my ass. Does this seem wrong to anyone else or am I just bitter?

there used to be a bug where jedi could overload their lightsaber with crystals and hit for about 800 damage standing up(pre cu that was alot of damage) and i think i heard that it is back
Oh its back. There are a couple of Jedi on my server that hit me for over 850 a pop ever second while I am standing up. I treat it like its a fire and try to stay back as far as I can while I wave the flames.
The funniest thing that happened to me was when I was KD'd by one of these great Jedi of our time frame... I was hit for 580 with saber throw which KD'd me and then was hit for 2.2K of damage 2x in 1 second. So not only was my Jedi friend using an overloaded saber he was also using a cute little macro that helps him hit two times in one second.
Its getting beat by these guys and then having them /hi5 their friends that makes me so unbearably happy. I hope they let me sit at their lunch table and talk to them some day.

You guys... MLS is what is killing you... If a jedi lands a ADV. Armor Break he will hit you for 800+ everytime. if he uses power attack 2 he will hit you for 1k+ during armor break. These are not bugs. Even with crapy armor and a crappy saber(525-644 damage) I can hit for these numbers.
ram
I have 75% reduction to armor break on every piece of my armor. I also have 240 melee defense before foods.
The reason I can say these guys are using "illegal" ways in their fighting because I have fought these same Jedi within the last month and they were not hitting for that hard then.
