see subject. I'm assuming that if you are grouped with a level 80 that you still get the defensive bonus in BH/Jedi encounters?

CL does not affect PvP, only PvE. A CL 80 player will not get any benefits from attacking a CL 63 player.
Or did I missunderstand your question?

You are incorrect. The benefits of grouping do not apply to PVP, only PVE.
And to the person who said that CL doesn't apply to PvP....you're DEAD wrong.

Are you sure about that in PvP? I havn't tested numbers but it always seemed like lower cl's were easier. Maybe just cus they had lower Health bar.

This is dead wrong, the greater the difference between the 2 characters, the greater the disparity in damage is. The higher level person would hit the lower level person for more than an equal level person.

Also, to the OP, youd do so little damage to a jedi that the stacked defence just wouldent be worth it imo.

right, but its is not because of the CL number disparity, it is because a lower cl will have fewer defenses (and hit for less because of lower accuracy also)
JUST the cl does not matter in PVP, only pve.
the difference in pvp is the lower max health, lower defense and accuracy.

CL doesnt apply to pvp the only dissadvantage is lower health.
If you have 1k melee def and enough speed and acc to make it viable i'd give it a try.

Thats so wrong....did either of you 2 read the link ?
edit - ill make it really simple for you
"Youre dead wrong. I just dueld my friend(lvl 63) i hit him with melee hit for 705, THEN i grouped him to artifically raise his level to 80, same atack against a lvl 80 and it now does 406 damage. "
See? the greater someones level is than yours, the more damage they will do. and not because of defence mods and such. its just like any other mmorpg in that aspect.

Ok I did a little testing with about 950 melee defense. I was hit by a lvl 80 double master (bh/rifle) with adv. critical. When I wasn't grouped I was hit for around 600ish, when I grouped with a level 80 I was hit for 355. So the CL can be ignored if you are grouped.
