ok everyone its time for a little honesty here about what you feel about publish 19. As I see it lowering the action and force costs on jedi attacks and abilities was needed, but why on earth did they increase the amount of damage done? Before publish 19 I was very sucessful as a MBH, winning at least 75% of the battles I got into with Jedi ranging from 120k up to 226k. Mind you I always hunted alone and tried not to jump my mark when he was engaged with some sort of mob.


Post Pub 19 I have only managed to win 10 -15% of my battles, my tactics havent changed, I still use the best weapons , armor and food and drink available when fighting my mark. The only thing that has changed has been the damage, force and actionspecifics ofJedi in general.


Tanks wants facts and data to take to the devs to try to at least get the playing field lowered to a jedi being 150% stronger then a full temp BH - when all he really needs in common sense. If I went from a 75% win ratio to a 15% win ratio after pub 19 then my friends something is unbalanced here and needs to be corrected asap.


One soultion to this would be to either take jedi damage output back to pre publish 19 levels but leave the force and action costs as they stand. The other would be to lower our action costs and increase our damage output so we can get at least a

"I have a chance" button and not a "I win" button. And for god sakes make our "First Strike Cabability" actually useful in a tactical sense - sure we can choose where and when to engage but we lack a "First Strike" punch.


The term First Strike is a cold war term that means delievering a knockout blow to your adversary there by either elimateing him as a vaiable threat or at least dimishing their ability to mount a successful counter attack, neither of which we have at the moment.


So I would like my BH breathern to post their win/loss precentages for pre pub 19 and post publish 19 so we can get some data on just how these changes have adversly effected the BH community as a whole. Also if you have any suggests as to what a good first strike capability should be for a BH (other then orbital nuclear bombardment) when fighting Jedi.


Thanks for your help

post pub 19 as a BH vs full templates 2W-0L


post pub 19 as a full template Jedi vs BH 0W-0L


I expect my wins column to fill on both sides post pub 20

i have been having the same problem. pre pub19 i loved solo'ing jedi and i did fairly well. now, since pub 19 something beyond my knowledge has happened. i am hitting for 40-300 points of dmg while i am taking 800+ dmg every second. this is with duelist stance,melee def food and intim all going. my template was never meant to be an all out dmg temp being mbh/mp and cm 4/x/x/x. i always considered myself a force drainer as i would slowly get the jedi to use up force via means of states,kd some dmg, roots, etc.


i feel that there is something not being calculated into the def/acc/dmg areas against bh...not too sure but something definitely happened and i don't think it is just the damage output on the jedi end.

Pre-pub19, armor break and elemental damage didnt work, so nothing was changed per se, but fixed. Also bear in mind, with no exaggeration really, that because armor break didn't work, I'd say at least 80% of the jedi were master defenders and I ask you, how many people have the patience for 1+ hour fights ? Or otherwise said, is that a sign of a healthy combat system ? It's like trying to break down a TK/doc or some variation of that now as a ranged fighter. Go ahead and try that if you're a pre-pub19 nostalgic
