Since high level jedi are nearly impossible to kill, I was wondering if suppression shot 2 is better then suppression 1. The key to killing jedi is to kite them and to kite effectively you have to use posture down changes. Suppression 1 works for me most of the time but is suppression 2 even more reliable?

To be honest with you, I don't use either one. I use Action Shots 1 and 2 for my posture down attacks. Both seem to work good enough for me. Not that it really helps out too much, but the bleed thatthey stick on the target is nice too.

Thanks, I forgot about the action shots.

Kite a Jedi who can just throw his Saber at you? Good one.

He's right. The kiting works. I use actionshot1 for posture change also, no idea what is working better though. I just like the bleed. Would be nice if someone did a test on this....cough* firehawk* cough.

most duelists I encountered tend to be surprised when I run from them to get in range, they really expect ranged fighters to stand still at their ideal range and get killed, they even called me "cheater" or "**edit**" (so I propose em 1 thing: 2 duels, first at their ideal range, second at mine, trying to explain the accuracy issue we have at 0m, the smartest ones understand)
I don't expect jedis to be smarter than that, most of em grounded professions without checking how the game works, I even saaw some who made emselves crappy sabers cause they just don't know how crafting and experimentation works along with ressource's stats (you kno, the %experimentation ratio).
posture change is a really nice shot, as most tend to take def vs KD, u can KD em with a dizzy + posture change.
try to replace the suppression fire button by the macro:
/ui action clearCombatQueue --- always help for exited people like me
/fullautoSingle2 (or /confusionShot)
/suppressionFire1 (or 2 or action shot)
this bypasses def vs KD mods, very helpfull against those who tend to dabble def vs state or eat def vs KD food.
jedis have saber block tho :'(

Wow thanks a lot that is a good macro. Heh and I know what you mean with the getting excited and spamming shots so you need to clear the combat queue

Personally I program the keypad ENTER key to clear the Queue, since my mouse thumb is right there and it has no function
