FYI, 1K+ attacks in PvP has always been there for both sides, either Armor Break + Power Attack with a good saber or Sniper Shot with a good weapon. Of course both of these attacks are rather slow.

Yup, but the tables have changed sir. Speed snares will overrun buffs, and action costs for healing are increased greatly. So, SL / BH snarekite >>> Any Jedi including the best sabers. I can see MANY Jedi deaths without even touching the BH. Ranged has an incredible advantage over melee now.
This comes from a Jedi, me, who has only died 3 times to a BH / BH group in 16 months of living on BH terminals.
Yeah, I've been paying real close attention to the MBH/MSL/CM4000 combo in the beta and on TC myself. It generally looks like you've got a pretty good handle there on the all-around utility of the upcoming Squad Leader enhancements. Not gamebreaking, but definitely a force to be reckoned with in the hands of a knowledgeable player.

I guess 1 hit incaps and 1000+ dmg attacks in PvP are not gamebreaking
I hit incaps are impossible now that they "fixed" the damage buff from 257% to 125%.
is there some law forbidding a Jedi from having a SL buff?

Yes it's called first strike which allows the hunter to engage while fully buffed, or is every Jedi supposed to carry an alt SL in his pocket now?

Is there some law? Yes, Murphy's law. No BH worth his weight is going to hit a mark when the mark is buffed with doctor and/or SL buffs. He'll wait and pick his moment of advantage. Once Teff'd, only the BH will then have the opportunity to take advantage of these buffs. Unlike food, spice, skill tapes, and most other benefits which can effect the balance of a fight, jedi often don't get to prepare for their fight.
Because of this, I don't see many templates where BH's pick up squad leader. The BH's will have a buddy carry squad leader and bring them to buff them right before the strike, leaving all the template for BH's devoted to more firepower and healing.
Oh yeah like you can powerattack every 1 or 2 seconds, instead, as a Jedi you do 500-600 per second or two then a powerattack for a lucky 1000-1200 while that rifleman over there dishes out 1000-1300 per second or two and an occasional 1600. I've done 2100+ dmg snipershot to an enhancer.
I suppose the devs' intention of these average high damage attacks is to shorten combat and duels with just 3K health unbuffed, buffs are as critical as they were pre-CU, and now every daily PVP group that roams the galaxy every afternoon/evening will have a SL or two and if the opposite faction PVP group doesn't have one then they won't live long.
