The game has changed quite alot. Especially the whole, jedi thing... I have been trying to become a jedi (other then my break), since holcrons. This was way back when becoming a jedi was a big thing. Now, I get back, and I have 2 full template jedi per grinding group. I am still trying to become a jedi, but it doesn't feel the same at all. I respeced from a TKM+MBH to a MBH/MCM, and it's very easy to get experience for grinding now. I remember when it was all about buffing, then starting a solo group. The thing is that being a BH has changed very much as well. I remember when I used to see jedi, and everyone huddled around them, and a BH attacking a jedi was so uncommon it was... well... uncommon. Usually the BH template would be BH 4/0/0/0 and TKM. I guess that's wiped now, because I don't see anyone with that template. But doing a BH mission has become EXTREMELY difficult when I hunt a jedi. I am not a n00b respec BH, I have been a BH before, but things are working differently now that the CU and some publishes have taken their tolls. The FS boxes are a pain on my template, because having them stops me from having a root against jedi. Anyway... are there any tips I can get, just coming back into the game, to help my jedi hunting go better, and is there a good chance to kill a Mdef/MLS jedi without a root?

You have one, sorta. Use paralyze and Electrolyte drain. Although paralyze is specificly a daze, and breaks on damage, it also makes an effective 5-10 second root (Depending on when your next fire/posion tick is comming).

If you feel real lost without a root, you can actually get one, by putting your remaining points into pistoleer 0004. You'll still have MCM and you'll still have MBH.

Though I would recommend MBH/MCM/Pistoleer 0040 - Which will give you intimidate shot and improved quickdraw.

With this template, your number 1 thing is control the jedi. CM gives you tons of wonderful abilities to do it with, you just have to make use of them. Namely, your most useful abilities are:

Thyroid Rupture (Lowers there combat speed a ton)

Electroylyte Drain (Lowers there movement speed a ton)

Paralyze (Stops them from doing anything)

Hemorrhage (Stops action regen - important on jedi who want to go full-offensive)

Tramutize (Stops mind regen - important on jedi who heal a ton)

Then of course neurotoxin and Durenium toss. I would not recommend either shock or Infect. There both horrible abilities.

Secondly, you can actually start the fight with a paralyze, stick a hemorrhage on em, electrolyte drain, thyroid reputure, and then tramutize before paralyze wears off. Now just run back, and as you do, be aware that they may saber throw you which will, probably, knock you down.

Once you get passed that obstical, apply your posion and fire.

At this point, simply keep your debuffs on him, and STAY AWAY. If you get in range, get armor broken, and get improved power attacked, it'll knock off 3/4 of your bar. The trick is, the jedi can't move while power attacking, which means, if you continue moving, that completely elminates them using that ability.

Secondly, when your rooted, prepare to heal, A LOT. Also remember that you have PARALYZE! And it will work mid combat! If your in a hairy situation, don't be afraid to simply paralyze, and then heal.

When your mind starts to get low (And it will eventually) stop applying fire and posion. Posion will eventually wear off, fire takes forever. Wait till you see the fire dot go off, then hit the paralyze button and BURST RUN. Your running flat out away from the jedi.

Why? Because your going to get out of combat range, sit, and regen your mind.

When you get better, you'll be able to easy outlast even MLS/MDEF - And the thing is, Jedi have a force bar, you don't.

There is however little you can do against jedi who Stasis then run, or Cloak and then run. Just drop the mission and grab a new one, its not worth your time. These 2 skills are a pain, but lucky for you there also the 2 least common.

This was very interesting reading, I have not considered this template. Doing MBH/ M Rifles/ Pistoleer 0-3-0-4 myself.

I don't have much experience on jedi hunting, but I found out this was the template used by one off the most reared BH's on Farstar server, Ajianna. I'm working on some good equipment to be able to perform well against full template jedis. I have a few questions though:

When you use CM with BH, do you actually shoot at all? I have pretty good rifle accuracy and do 700+ damage with critical shot, but I can't understand how you can hit at all? Does the CM abilities do all your damage? I even use deutox- something food to boost my accuracy with 177 for 1 minute to apply my kd and stopping shot.

I use kiwik and breath of heaven/ brandy for max action regen, but still find im pretty soon out of action. I use a speed pup on my rifle to get a good 841 dps, but it helps sooo little when I can't shoot anyway due to my action. Do you guys use damage pups instead?

Would it work to use MBH/ CM 4-4-0-0 and rifles 4-0-0-4 f.eks to actually do some rifle damage or is the cm too weak if not master?

For the orriginal poster:

-Tantel armor with 8000 energy protection, can't live without it

-Visit your local chef, vegeparsine, kiwik, breath of heaven, air cake,pixies (spice), can't stay alive without it

-PSG's now have energy protection, can't stay alive without it.

-be clothes now have +15 to melee and ranged def, makes a difference.

-bomb droids, haven't made it work just yet, but are supposed to be good

-Read up on how to handle jedis who hide/ grind on Kashyyyk, it's a pain
