Made master over the weekend, woot. First thing I thought I'd do was go kick some Nightsister butt. Here'show it went........


When it comes to NS Initiates, Sentrys, Slaves and other "low" level Nightsisters I owned. Now here's the problem: on "high" level Nightsisters {Elders, Spellweavers, Stalkers, etc} I couldn't even scratch them !!

How do you fight something that has Medium Armor and 100% Special Protection to all damage types that Master Carbs can deal out.


So, my question: how do you kill something that is immune to all the damage typesyou can dish out?


Energy = 100% Protection

Acid = 100%

Heat = 100%


thanks, looking for any pointers you may have....

Since you can't do damage w/o luckily hitting the Armor Hole, I'd team up with a guy that can do damage and try to stick states on them. Or go Pike like I did and pick up an Electricity VibroLance. :-)

Spell weavers, Protectors, and I think one other, can't remember at the momemt perhaps stalkers, are immune to everything except kinetic, restraint, and blast.

The elder has heavy armor and 25% energy, kinetic, restraint, and blast. You can kill (at least in theory) everything else except the ones with resists the same as spell weavers and protectors.

T21 toting Rifleman are the only ones that could/can kill elders easily.

I went at a NightsisterStalker tonight that had 26k ham, light armor, and only (only? lol) 40% to energy. So I pulled out my nice new laser powered up to 101-531...and about 15 seconds into the fight I jumped on my bike andhigh tailed it out of therebecause I was doing almost 0 damage...what's up with that?

Only thing i can say is try to take a master fencer with you. They can deal out massive amount of damage with there Stun baton in hand. as an EX master fencer i found spellweavers VERY easy. Wouldnt have any advice on elders sorry. never had the guts to take them1 on 1

I'm a master fencer, and I'd never be able to kill those things with a stun baton. They are 100% resistant to stun lol. I find my vibroblade works quite nicely on them though. It has low HAM costs for me, and AP1 for them. I had to switch to it the other night and tank on 2 spell weavers and a protector to give my buddies time to regroup and heal up (one got slain and had to re-buff). I then took the 2 spell weavers while my buddies took out the protector. I'm proud to say I stood my ground well with my vibroblade.

Stalkers have 100% energy resists. Outcasts, initiates, rangers, andsentinels are the only ones you can effectively hit with a laser carbine.

yeah so i went to the night sister cave with a tka guildmate to have some fun, i figured i could harass the high level nightsisters while he and his pet rancor kick some ace. as soon as i get to the cave entrance, i get jumped by about 10 tka ns innitiates...**edit**?! as i kept fighting in the cave i realized, every npc in the cave was a tka. the nightsisters didnt even use force powers, just spitting rawl, and whatever krayt move and all those other nifty tka named moves. whats up with that?!
