Thread: Is this right??? Jedi can run and hide in factional base?

Oh and another thing....I'm pretty new to BH and PvPing in general but the strangest things happened on this particular mission. 1) the Jedi was constantly KDing me...I mean if I wasn't rooted...I was on my back. I was never able to clear 30m and I could never KD him back.
That's the key right there. If you're rooted, you can't take any action. If you're knocked down and then rooted, wait for the Jedi to hit you before you try knockdown recovery. You can be rooted, knocked down, and then rooted again. Last time I thought weird stuff was happening in PVP, I checked my combat log and everything worked the way it was supposed to. Jedi are usually quick to get back up because they're expecting the BH to use the knockdown shot every chance they get.
And then there was his "popping" up in front of me when I was running. I have a Dell XPS Gen 2 notebook and cable and was fighting well outside a city on Lok...so lag shouldn't have been an issue. From other experiences on missions...I have never seen this "popping" behavior. (Even when fighting a mark in the middle of PvP action on Theed on a Friday night.) Just wondering if there aren't some other issues I'm not aware of. I don't mind losing (I onlykill about 20% of my marks) but there seems to fishy with this one.
Are there a lot of player-placed structures in the area? The worst lag I get is going into player cities.
