Lastnight saw my second attempt to take down a Jedi since becoming a Master BH. My first attempt was against a 222k Jedi Knight and I'll leave the result of that attempt up to your imagination (I was solo, and it was not pretty). For my second attempt, I found a nice 90k mission and figured that I would practice on a less powerful Jedi. I stalked the Jedi for a couple of hours and finally found him grinding with a group on Tatooine. The Jedi was already down to half health from the mob on him so I engaged. I was able to incap him relatively quickly. I ran up for the DB, but the timer for his incap ended before my DB timer and he popped back up. Immediately he popped off a heal and was back up to full health. At this point, I knew I was in for a long fight. I am also a 4000 CM, so I wasn't too worried, the battle went back and forth and I must say, I was impressed that this Jedi was holding his ground. His friends started running down as well to watch, and I thought for sure that I was about to get spammed with /duels and /offerride, but much to my suprise, this did not happen. I continued to battle the Jedi, almost getting him Incapped and then a full heal. Finally, he ran up with his dual saber and KD me. This is where I got %@#$ irritated. "Cannot KD Recovery while KD." Now, I am confident that the fight would have gone my way, I was outlasting his force. But no, I had to sit and watch as the Jedi incapped and DB me because of this very annoying bug. Needless to say, this does not encourage me to continue spending the time hunting Jedi, but I am looking forward to taking one on after Publish 19. All I can say is that I hope the Devs do something about this very annoying bug soon!

Thanks, I'll make a macro and test it out tonight. Would have been handy to have that during the fight, hehe.

yeah its a bug in the system where the server thinks you are still standing so it rejects your kd recovery request. I have yet to have this happen to me, but several people have posted this fix works.

Good to know. Thanks!
I do not play a BH and my main is a Jedi. I have this problem ALOT. I occasionally get a system msg that I'm unable to assist target when attempting to heal myself. My favroite was "invalid target" when trying to heal myself.
Now, only to find a work around for those two...

were you actually doing heal self or were you using a heal command without yourself being targeted?
PvP kinda screws with the whole assistance bit in the new system, best way around it is to keybind some macros
/forceHeal self
/bactatoss self
stuff like that. Keybind them to your numberpad.

yep the invalid target while healing is due to "passthrough healing" stupid idea. if an enemy is targeted im healing myself if a group meber is targetted im healing them... DOH!! *hands the devs a cup of coffee and smacks them upside the head*
