Current template: MBH, MCarbs, CM 4000

Changing to template: MBH, MCM, Carb 0400


Is this still worth doing? I've heard alot of jedi are changing their templates to counter the MCM FoTM temps. Master Powers/Master Enhancer templates are destroying the MBH/MCM templates....is this true? I know that it depends on tactics and strategy but before I don't want to take the time to make this change if it's not as effective as it once was.


I need a change but I want to go in the right direction. I think MCM could be alot of fun and a good change but I just wanted to hear some of the advice that current MBH, MCM players out there have.


Also please post whether you went with Carb 0400 or Pistol 0004 with your MBH, MCM temps.


Thanks guys.

Well, I went with MBH/MCM/Pistols 2xx1


I still get a root, but I also get warning shot that reduces defenses for a little bit.


Almost any template will work, really, as long as you practice your tactics, and don't expect to win every fight.


As for Jedi changing templates to adjust, I don't think so. Most of the full template Jedi don't really lose anything if they die, and by switching to counter MCMs, it decreases their effectiveness at PvE, or in large scale PvP, or in any PvP vs non-CM. Most of the Jedi I know just keep what they have, and deal with CMs as they get them.


As for non-full templates, most want to hurry up and finish their template, and won't do many major modifications until then.


Just my opinion, anyways.

I'd just change your CM to 0-4-0-0

Wouldn't do alot of good without some really good AAs/CAs. DoTs don't stick very well until you get MCM

I chose MCM/MBH/Carbs0400, a good high energy resist RIS (mines 7.2k energy resist) suit with 75% AB slice. Regardless of the Jedi temp, if you can't kill them with your DOT's you will run them out of force fairly quickly, unless they run. TBH, the 75% AB slice makes loads of difference, I can't do it in any other armor. That said I don't hunt too many Jedi, but I have fought Master Enhancers and Master Defenders, and the Defenders outlast the Enhancers by a couple of minutes.


As for a pistols version I would take Pistols 4000 over 0004 as against a Defender with Force Valor, you won't hit them to snare them anyway. Speed is a better option IMO.

Yea I was leaning towards MBH, MCM, Carb 0400 moreso than Pistol 0004 or even 1003 simply because of the high damaging attack of Leg shot to add to the arsenal. Plus I love using my elite carbine although I have a double capped featherweight FWG5 pistol as well.


As the only CM line I have is 4/0/0/0...I wonder how long it will take me to become MCM in level 80 gurk hunting groups.

Hmmmm I may be tottaly wrong here but forjedi changing is out of the question....no force skill is ever surrenderable as I have been told....so there stuck with what they took unless they are the altra-hacker or want to spend say 6 months on a new jedi alt.
