This is something that came out at the battlefield near coronet, how do we fight at-st's? Almost half of the imperials on Kauri have them, and I was hitting the at-st as hard as a could ( on the battlefield last night), with about 5 rebel NPC's hitting it too, and I died within 30 seconds. I could barely tell that I had touched it. Also, for those that actaully read this, is it possibly to defeat a jedi with fencer? The only thing that I can think of is keeping them in states, and make sure you have cob running because as long as you DONT get HIT, your safe...
Well I know Fencer is bad at dealing damage (I've been a Fencer for 5 months)but thats the beauty of it when you fight Jedi.....they have 0 armor to defend against your attacks. Plus, if you hit them with intimidate right off the back, most of the ls damage is not that bad (unless your facing a MLS which is more than likely a knight).
Remember, saberblock does not work on mele. I have a 485 damage gaffi......usually it's not that good but against Jedi it worked really good since they have no armor. You might say they can just heal any states you place on them, well just keep spamming your states while running your COB macro and eventually the Jedi runs out of Force (trust me, I'm a Jedi too). Bad part is once they hit an intimidate/stun you are going to get hit A LOT. Which is why you.......stack your defenses (pick up pistoleers defense). There are other things you can take advantage of (like particualr armor that is bugged as well as psg's).
ATST's, well what do you expect. Medium armor, 55k ham.......I sure hope you don't kill it fast using a ap0 weapon. On the flip side, devs can't nerf ATST's anymore because as it is Rifleman or Swordsman kill it in 10 seconds.

These don't actually stack. One gets applied than the other. Makes the actualy reduction quite a bit lower. Also, jedi don't get the AR1 half damage reduction. Other melee classes get toughness AND armor,

And can just keep themselves up through continuos healing.Master Defenders that know what they are doing. Master Lightsaber / Master Defender / 4004 Healer. More so if their rich and can afford massive holos. Because they can keep themselves up, have decent state defenses, and if by some chance you beat their healing abilities, Avoid Incap Master Defender skill.I've found ways to hurt both templates, but it infuriates me to no end that Jedi can heal while KD'ed.
avoid incap? you know jedi who actually use it? I found it to be a very cool way of seeing a jedi die. nothing more.
@the atst: cmon guys, where is that 88-90 effec cold armor of you? these guys should be 'easy' to tank.. but as most fencers now, pve dmg dealing isnt really your cup of tea.
