Ok so I decided to take my first jedi mission (well scond actually but my first one was in some Nightsister caves when I found him and I couldn't go in after him). Anyways, I thought I picked an imperial jedi but he turned out to be Rebel and was blitzing the Imperial base on Talus with his mates when I found him. Needless to say I got squished bad and was left wondering what I need to do. FYI he was Jedi iniate which I thought would mean easier and I am MBH/MC/Pistoleer 0004. I used my PFT because its the bes dmg wpn I have (although my Elite Carbine & Adv Laser Rifle are only sligtly behind). I noticed that many of my attacks didnt hit him - was that because he's resistant to fire?
Note - I got the guy (MrDucky) with my first foray on the terminal. I found him at Bestine starportbut by time I had eaten some food and equipped my armor, he had gone again, and stupidly I didnt note his name (first mistake - wastewd some food - need better prep next time). Anyways, I then found him on Nabo but by the time I had got there he had gone again and I had to follow him to Talus. He took me out in a couple of hits (took half my 3000 life with a saber throw which knocked me over) and then finished me off whilst I was gettng up.
I know that perhaps I might need better SEA's, armor (I use comp but its not extra special) and weapons (haven't got any krayt ones) but I thought I might hit him for more than 500 dmg. Anyone give me some suggestions/pointers?

dont let the tag fool you. I killed a mbh wearing the novice scout tag last night. the reason many of your attacks didnt hit was the jedi probably had some defender did you notice the Jedi's ham bar? If there was an icon that looks like a hand in it they had force aura up which makes it harder to hit them. Also force valor which increases saber block.
As to the armor... comp is not the proper armor to be wearing while hunting PC jedi. High resist recon armor is your best bet, followed by energy layered battle as a less effective but still viable alternative.

Thanks for the reply Hnglka. Can you juast explain what you mean by high resist recon. My Comp armor is 7k kinetic 6k energy and then 6k everything else so its pretty high. I've looked at recon armor on the bazaar (Tantel I know but what ae the others?), but the stats for those are well below my comp armor. Can you suggest what levels of resist I'm looking for.

Recon armor typically has higher resist to energy.
I have 8k resist energy. Lightsabers do energy damage. The other stats dont matter so much, cause I only use it when Hunting jedi. Looks ugly as hell too.
I wear comp when hunting in the wild.
But its only good if you have a profession with BH that can wear recon.
Hope that helps

Jedi do energy damage with their sabers with some small amount of elemental depending on crystal choice. Kinetic resists are worthless. Get the best Recon you can afford to hunt jedi and use it only for jedi, have teh AS max out the enrgy with little regard for kinetic.

Test
Edit: Sorry about that - I had to test whether I can now use forums with firefox and now I can.
