Thread: threatened hyprid nerfs?

Say since I got my LVL80 MBH grinded out and started hunting jedi I have always been in awe of many of their abilities; by far for me was the mysterious, 'cloak.' Then I was thinking; what rule prevents me from being a MBH/jedi?......sure I got all the advice that I was going to sux as a hyprid etyc etc etc, but the far most disturbing was the runor that after the new CU upgrades hyprids would be a thing of the past simply because none of the abilities would work if you had anything, but a sabre equiped.....for instance if you had a blaster equiped you couldnt use a jedi force heal.

I since I am still a bit short of the 6 rows I would need to turn myself... So I need to ask the hyprids out there if this doom n gloom prediction came to pass? I am quessing not since I think the rumor starters that it would ....would be all gloating over your miss-fortune, but wanted to ask that question that did that change come to pass?

Yes, you need to have your saber on to use the Jedi specials. At least from my limited experience grinding a friend's Jedi. It's not much, only afew days thus far, but it gave me a unique prespective on the BH vs Jedi debate. As far as your template with a Hybrid.... You will need:


MBH: 121sp


6 Trees of FS Skills: 24 SP


That leaves you with 105 SP to do with as you will for Jedi.


That will leave you enough for 4xxx Healer, and 4xxx Enhancer for Force Run2 (you'll need it)


You could spend the remaining points in 2 rows of Lightsaber, or if you drop the enhancer, you could spend them in 3 rows + 1 box of Lightsaber.


I doubt that you will be able to take down a Jedi with this type of a template. You will not have aura, shield, or armor. FR2may be enough to run away from a Jedi (certainly from a BH),but the 4xxx healer probably won't get it done either. 2 trees in LS MAY be enough, but you'd have to spend millionsupon millions of +25 GMS and +25LS speed of your fancy.


Melee Def with the above: +95


Ranged Def with the above: +125



Still though... a template like this has got to be fun, since you can hunt Jedi and fight BHs who come for you! Imagine being on a mission yourself, and fighting a Jedi when a BH shows up and attacks YOU.

right now offensive force powers can't be used with another weapon. Unarmed and with a LS you can however. Also heal, aura, cloak, basicly anything but offensive moves can still be used with other weapons equipped.

There was a bh/jedi hybrid who took down many Jedi on naritus, his templete was like some healer and force drain. he'd drain us to death, heal using stimpacks, and use the force to heal..

Now he could still do it, but he'd have to unequip his weapon to drain

lol, I read that wrong....



Same... because it's an Elite profession that uses 2 minor professions as a base, it's still 16 SPs available.

Thank you for the post..... especially cause I havent sat down and did the math yet on how many points exactly I will have to spend on the jedi tree. I met a hyprid on Bria and he was really having troubles fiquring out a temp to become lvl 80, and keep MBH; I mean such a hyprid plan is worthless unless you can hunt other jedi and I may be wrong since I am too lazy to calculate it myself, but105 SP's really wont get it done. Damn was looking forward to uncloaking and seeing the utter suprise reactions as I unload on a jedi tanking a kryat or Kimo....granted I probably wont get the DB but it sounded like good RPG fun....the fact that any jedi would have to constantly worry about you litterally being in the shadows and unclaoking next to them. The more I learn and study jedi tatics there actually a very onguard group...at least the live ones.

There was a force usingBH that really managed to screw me up good. All I know for sure is he was MBH & 0400Pow. The fight didn't last long enought for anything else. He poped out of cloak about 45m from me just as the 1st wave of a picket lair was really laying into me, andgot me with a KD & a Crit. That's really all it took. The pickets had already been at me pretty good, but the damage from his attacks & the bonus damage the pickets were getting from the KD pushed me way over the top. He walks up, gets his DB, does his bow, and jogs off to cloak again.


The cloak let him get close to me without giving me any indication he was there. Rifles could do that too, but not soon enough to catch me as the 1st wave of a lair is really digging in. I don't know how well that exact tactic would work against an MDef, (or how likely you are to find a full template Jedi spinning a picket lair), but it sure worked on me.
