are charge shot and underhand shot (both kds) on separate timers? Im a bh/ch and am wondering if I should get charge shot in carbineer instead of going up a different carbine tree. Thanks for the help

The KD Immunity Timer if that is what you are referring to is based on the target and thus even other people can not land a KD until the Immunity Timer is done.
I have not tested the Immunity Timer yet but it shouldn't matter what special does the actual KD.

Timer is at 30sec for KD, Root, Intim, Snare
Good to know but is that from the moment they are put on the target, or from the moment the effect is over?
If it's the first, i'll set me up some macros which inform me after 30 seconds, that i can put it again... *grin*

Should be as soon as the 2nd one drops, but i think there is a personal timer thats longer that prevents this from sticking.... After ive KDed a guy he gets up, and 30 secs go by and i try to KD him again and he wont fall but if a friend trys to KD he makes it=)
Think there is a 45sec-1min personal timer or something

The only advantage i ve seen with underhand compared to carbine KD is you dont look like a clown when using it

Charge shot can't be done while kneeling. At least thats the message it gives me MOST of the time. I play in groups alot now and it affords the oppurtunity to kneel more. SoI think underhand is better overall, it seems to use less action too. I just wonder why SOMETIMESI can use charge shot while kneeling but most times cannot? Seems to be a bug.

From my experiance there is two types of timers. The targets immunity timer, which seems to be 30 seconds against melee/ranged professions, and the targets immunity timer against 1 attacker which I believe is 45 seconds against melee/ranged. One thing I have noticed as a BH when hunting jedi who have a knockdown, my immunity seems to be 10 seconds (unless we were bugged that night). I fought a jedi in a duel and every 10 seconds I was knocked down, so I hope this is a bug because it's a pain when fighting a master defender
