Ok, i left the game once because my house up and vanished for no reason, and SOE said tuff nuts. Came back and then liked it again then i found out more new content (JTL) was being added rather then the CU. Finally the CU is done, so i come back to check it out since star wars is my favorite universe (although no RP server still makes me sad) and test the CU.


I know back in the day thier were alot of BH Fotms, and for the most part i defied them all, no TKM no fencer no fotm for me. I beat Jedi the old fashioned way, with a pistol, man did that tick them off.


Anyhow, im back, and im just looking to have some fun, and i still have my respec but im not entirely sure what to do with it. I worked hard for my BH boxes, and although the respec seems to have allowed anyone to grab them, i still hold them as a badge of honor, and id like to at least keep the investigation tree for when i see jerks abusing the class i can go after them.


Now with the CU fixing alot of classes i always wanted to play im tempted to do alot of funky templates, like BH investigation with smuggler slicing and unarmed and TKM, wierd stuff like that.


But before i go throwing my eggs in one basket i wanted to come here and ask everyone some advice. Not neccesarily an FOTM or what i should do. Although i suppose your opinion (based on experience please) couldnt hurt.


What im really looking for are the must haves, and the must not haves.


I know back in the day i used alot of the must not haves, but i knew the game well then, and had the most top of the line equipment so I could get away with it. Now not so much of either, so id like a relativley easy ride while i learn the game.


Like, i couldnt figure medic out for the life of me, i kept trying to use a stim and it wouldnt work, but when i used bacta shot it didnt use a stim, i was confused...


But anyhow, i wasnt sure if a certain amount of medic was needed, if maybe a certain class/weapon just simply didnt work on jedi, if certain armorers were pointless agaisnt them, stuff like that. I still have to rifle through my droids for alot of stuff, and scrap some things that are pointless like stun based armor. But any help i could recieve in my proverbial ressurection would be nice.


Thanks alot guys. (and gals)

Weapons- high max damage / lowest SAC you can find


Armor- highest energy resistance you can get as lightsabers now do energy damage


Meds- use of meds is now based on your level, just 'examine' and it'll tell you what level you need to be. Using the drink Ruby Bheil (sp?) cuts time in half between uses. Handy when a Jedi is doing big damage.


Specials- MBH has Advanced Critical Shot, one of the best in game ATM and my personal favorite. Improved Body Shot is nice too, from Pistoleer I think.


DOTs- Combat Medics have the only DOTs now. Though Improved Torso Shot does bleeding damage, it's not enough to bother with vs. Jedi.


Hope this help and welcome back !!

Wait so let me get this straight....


you dont need medic at all to use stims anymore? All you need is combat levels which everyone pretty much has?


Whats the point in medic then?



Also do ranged/melee defense/accuracy have caps? If so what are they?


Can pistols pack enough to kill a jedi or do you need to go carbine or rifle?


Would a TKM/BH be able to take down jedi or do you need range?


Would something like a squad leader BH be able to take down a jedi?


BH/Smuggler?



Thanks for the help again

Here is an idea, not sure if its been done to death, because i dont know how good/bad or useful anything is in the new system.


How effective would a master BH/Master combat medic be? Mastering both classes allows you to have 37 points left over which could be spent randomly into things, or is enough to grab one tree of any ranged master list, with two points left over that id probably just put into hunting.


Would that be effective over all?

PvP effective?

Dueling effective ?

Jedi hunting effective?


edit-new question

It also gives me the ability to take one treeof creature handler, a class i always found to be fun, but not sure of its usefulness if i can only take one tree. Would that be worth it?

Or is it that the combat medic and MBH is enough. and it doesnt matter what i spend the points in.

Or should i just take regular medic skills to get some of the lower level buffs.
