Thread: New NPC Elite Marks Impossible!! Hardly....
i guess ill say it again ..
if you cant kill a double elite mark ? youre NEVER gonna kill jedi ..
you should respec to sword / doc IMMEDIATELY
I think the difficulty is just about right.
Too many people useworthless armors and weapons andhaven't discovered food-buffs, end then there is those who have no idea what CL is, so many of those who complain is probably one of those people.
In defense of the people saying they are impossible. First, i was one of those people last week, and yes, i was not properly using my skills. I have been a DE for a while and decided to drop the skills and grind a good combat profession. I did not respec, i grinded all of my skills, so that is not it. I did notice one think. In the beginning, when i was a cl70 and pulling the elite marks they were dishing out 600 to 800 damage every hit. I was unable to keep up with them when healing. Now that i am a cl79 i can take out the boss marks with no problem. They are only doing about 250 to 400 damage per hit. I dont know why this has changed, becuase the marks are still 3 cl levels above mine, but they have become easier to take down. Therefore i think this is one of the reasons some have more trouble than others.
A good example, last night i pulled a cl82 boss mark, i am only a cl79. I figured i was done, but took him on anyway. I killed him easily. 2 days ago when i was a cl77 i got a cl80 boss mark and got incapped within 30 seconds on two different attempts. So i got a cl54 doctor to help me by healing me, pulled out the cl30 tanker droid and started attacking again. # NPCs jumped in and started firing. It took all of us 5 minutes to kill the guy. The doctor even got into it when the mark hit him by some chance. I believe it has something to do with the cl level of the player. I have made a few purchases since then, but i couldnt believe that is the reason
Just a thought

My wife is currently grinding out MBH and was taking out the BOSS 82s as a CL 72 with no problem. Its all about the foods, armor and weapon. Tactics are also important. It can be done as a lower level just has to be more to it than swopp in and start shooting.

There is a damage multiplier depending on the difference in lvl between you and the mark. I think its about 10% extra damage per lvl so its npt strange that lvl 80+ NPC's kicked your ass when you were lvl 70

I now understand why some people think Jedi = Godmode. If they can't even kill in PvE, that answers a lot of questions rofl.
Well this might have somthing to do with it?
