Oh and rebels are stinky With what Brainplay said:
It is not a far-fetched scenario, but let me break a few things down:
The jedi is fully templated and has the forcebar to do continuous heals. Not all can do this, not even all the jedi I know can heal poisons/diseases. A full jedi template isn't too hard to come by, but certainly someone without that high of a forcebar would be able to continuously heal in a prolonged fight.
The CM was not master, I'm "guessing" 4004 or 4404 (I can't remember if it was that Cm that had the healmind or Brainplay). It also sounds like they were not spider-enhanced poisons OR the CM wasn't stacking the poisons like he/she could have been. It they were stacked or 700+ point ticks, you DEFINATELY would have seen the poisons do more damage than the swordsmen. When I stack my 900-point tick and 750-point ticks on someone, you'll notice it. 800 points or so every 5 seconds is hard to ignore.
It just goes to show that every encounter is unique and how it should be handled is different nearly every time. It makes it exciting, at least for me anyway.

In the beginning one of the swordsman (there were 2) was a partial CM. But their combined attacks were beating his poison easy.
In the end it was me who is the MCM. My poisons were spider venom but only 90 power. 323 area and 398 single, not the greatest but no decent fiberplast over 900 this year I'm afraid. The swordsman was keeping up and I swear doing more damage than my poisons. Maybe thats an oversight or an exaggeration. Either way though the Jedi was keeping up on the heals. He was human and MIND buffed as well.
What I posted above was no scenario. It happened.
The purpose I was trying to convey was that while yeah my poisons would normally have taken down a regular non-Doctor player template it was not the hugely deciding factor but rather the use of both poisoning AND healing abilities. If I had been eliminated right after I stacked both poisons the chances of the Jedi winning the fight grow substantially. Actually, no. I can say without a doubt that the Jedi would have won the fight. Their were way too many times when a stim landed when the swordsman needed some serious healing.

As long as our forcehealing is so crap as it is focus on all cm's becuse it takes 3-6 heals to remove it then the dot users and last the ranged
Wow even a Jedi knight is totally blind to the truth of the matter. Once again, it was the healing that won the day. The poisons didn't have much of an effect on the outcome.
I give up......
