Since most of my guild is busy grinding Jedi I sometimes have too much time on my hands.
Yesterday I decided to go out hunting recycler parts.
Bear in mund tht my template is Novice Scout with hunting 1, Master Marskman, Master Smuggler, Master Commando, and FS ranged speed 1. I have no other combat skils or any healiong abilities at all.
The first stop was the CAnyon Coursairs base on LOK. I managed to get a small power motor before a whole bunch of them handed my my hat.
This is where I should have noticed something wasn'r quite right... but I didnn't think anything of it.
Now being the resntful fellow that I am I went back accompanied by a rifleman. He got his hat handed to him and I got a piece of wiire and a bushel basketfull of rigfel barrels. Barely got touched.
Since that trip seemed to be a bust I decided to pay a call onFT Tusken.
On the way I toasted several Tusken snipers, captrains, commanders and their pet Banthas.Thers were also a few stupid npcs that managed to get in my way.
Still didn't think anything of it..
When I arrived at the fort I went i throug the tunnel.
I was met by 3 tuskens which I charbroiled them.Then I proceeded to go through the entire tyunnel and the fort wasting every tusken I meet.
I was beginning to smell something was upbut not sure what.
AS I left I went back down the tunnel..
This is what I can't figure out..
About halfway down I ran into a pistoleer having a shootout with a tusken captain and (I thnik) a sniper.
Not wanting to interfear with his killing pleasure I stopped to watch.
Ocf course not wanting tosit on my hands I checked the pistoleer's ham it was about half gonme so I applied a little shot of FLS2 to the sniper and peaced out.
Teh pistoleeer finished off the snipe and then went after the captain.
I took a look at the captains ham which was hardly being touched and then the pistoleer's ham.
Since the pistoleer's ham was quite low I thought I'd pester the tusken to draw his fire so the pistoller could recover some of his ham.
I also cionsidered the trip to the cloner a faster way home.
I managed to irritate the tusken bya FLS2 and stepping on his foot.
I snuggled up to the tusken and spamed peace while the tusken beat on me with his gaderfi stick.
the tusken must have been really ticked off at me becasdue he ignored the pistoller and concentrated on samking me up side the head.
I had been buffed but that ran out during the fight and I was on brandy but nothing else.
It took the pistolleer about 5 mijutes or so to kll the tusken and all that time I was peacing out.
The Pistoleeer didn't heal himself or me the whole time but I noticed that my ham was not being affected very much.
I've been to Ft Tusken several times and I usuaslly have to bailoput to recover or I get croaked in short order.
I should hve been croaked in under a minute with the guy beating on me but that dfiodn't happen.
I have no idea whyI survived but I did and with very little damage.
This is the fist tiem I've managed to take on anything that examined out to be instant death or a tough fight and not been nearly incapped or outright killed.
Maybe it was a dream. I'll check my inventory for the 3 crystals I picked there. If I have them then I didn't dream the fight.
Regardless I had one heck of a good time.
I just found an announcment the thwe mobs, including the Tuskens- were reworked. Me thinks they were toned down quite a bit instead of beefing them up..

On Wanderhome 2 months back my wifes Toon Master Sowrd/ Master Doc and my self went to Ft Tusker. We had all the buffs and food/drink. Near the end of the evening we were near the Pool and were jumped by4 Warlords, 2 Chiefs, 4 Captians and a few Snipers. We figured we can take them with ease........ I flameconed 2 then and set to TK thier lil Hinnies, my wife was laying heavy into them. But here is the Kicker even with the Spl and DOT on us and them. The Tuskers and us were taking no damage. Even when our Buffs ran out. The big kicker we were in the pool area so long those pesky tusker respawned a few times, so I lost count on what we were fighting. A few other ppl came in and got there butts handed to them...even a Jedi. After the Jedi died we burst ran out with a few chasing us until we were at peace. We must have been in a glitch, I feel sorry for the other ppl that thought they could take this small army of Tuskers.

I dont know what's up with the game lately....possible another Armor bug or something. Check this out. I was on Yavin4 hunting some Black Suns. Low and behold I found some! YAY me! And then I notice that I am being both Shot (ranged) and stabb'd (melee) for roughly 650-1,500 a hit! I was wearing full armor, still in great condition, PSG, Buffs, Synth Steak. And there were not using Stun weapons.......so need less to say I started running to the lake so they couldn't DB me (works sometimes) but didn't evenmake it to the beach. I have fought Black Suns quite a bit, NEVER have they done damage like this. It is my belief that there is some sort of "free floating" Armor Bug out there ready to strike. Later that day....on Yavin, was at the Geo Cave with a Guildie, we split up to get some loot while we waited for another guildie to come. All of a sudden his Mind was gone....in about 2 hits. I realize that Stun is going to be doing full damage....but he had Melee mitigation2.......Whats up? Anybody else having issues like this?
