Since you bumped, I'll say it again for emphasis: Figure out if you want Powers or LS.Taking a little of each is just diluting your power both. I guess you don't want to hear it, but then don't ask for advice.

I feel your pain - I've been struggling with my final respec the past few days as well. MDef, MLS, with dabble in Enh and Heal is just so...generic. It's not a *fun* template, which is what you seem to be looking for. And the aforementioned one is almost like playing a TKA/Swordsman instead of a Jedi.


I decided to drop MDef and take MEnh. It gives me a LOT more fun, Jedi-like powers to play with. Since I don't have to dabble in Enhance, I get a little more to play around with in Healing, for States or Sap. The downside is, no more Super-Tank.


Maybe, if you are looking for straight-up fun, you wanna go MPower, MEnh. Tying up your points in Defender may be what is holding you back.

This is what my template is, pretty close to what it was before the CU...

Master LS, Defense 0040, Healer 4000, Enhance 4000, Powers 0404


I sort of chose these skills based on what powers my Jedi would have if it were in the movies...
The Powers are basically a throw away (And I wonder if 48 Points is a bit much to throw away for fun) but I just HAD to have Force Knockdown and Force Throw (I only wish FKD better resembled the Jedi Force Push). Then I originally had the Animal Controlling Powers, but the idea of Force Cloak kept me in that branch... plus I always liked the idea of mindblast. Now I see Force Cloak as actually being a possible escape mechanism, so I guess it's not all for nothing.

Some Defense was necessary so I figured I'd grab a line with both melee and ranged... plus Aura is excellent.

Healing, for me, is just a necessary evil in video game fighting... to be honest, aura plus force infusion so far works wonders for me.

The Master Lightsaber were the fist skills I ever picked up as a Jedi (After the Revamp of course) and I was orignally going to go for Master Defender (A Jedi uses the force for knowledge and defense... never for attack), but then I based my decision on the fact that it was really much greater in the old system and more importantly, sometimes the best Defense is a great offense... as Obi-Wan proves time and again. So, I earned Master Sabers with no other Jedi Skills and decided I could not drop it after CU... plus I believe it will get some love and that I'll be happy with that decision... I already am, really.

Finally Improved Force Run was another Jedi Standard I just had to have. Both for fun and for possible escapes (Not so easy or great now though).
The big thing I am missing is channel and meditation.

If I could convince myself to drop one of my Powers Branches, I suppose I would go Enhancer 4004, but it would have to be the Force Knockdown Branch... and it's just my favorite move in the movies... too bad it's so poorly represented still.


Hope that wasn't too much rambling!

May the force be with you.

I am not a Jedi yet, in fact its 3 AM here and I'm waiting for the Old Coot to show up. But I was wondering if you all think this template is good for PvE and light PvP...

Defender 4440
LS 0404
Enhancer 4004
Powers 0400
Healer (of course) 4000

I could, however not pursue the Cloak device and just get master Defender. But I just want to see how you all aprove of this.

Well after fighting some BH yesterday i thought about a different template. I am 0044 ls, 2100 healer, 0020 defender, 2000 enhancer and novice powers atm.
My problem is not standing the fight, it is more that i can't deal enough damage before he heals again and then finally running out of force (My CL is 80). My 4th lightsaber is a bit high on FC (24),
but all crystals are above 120dmg and using sunriders destiny. With a modified dps of 630 i thought i should be able to kill a bh with just one full branch in the ls tree (besides from defense and healing abilities).
What am i doing wrong? Will improved force speed help me more?



I was thinking of an almost pre CU template, like MLS, MEnh, 3000 Healer, 0020 Defender.


Will i be competitive in a duel without defender? Then i would think of spending the points in healer instead.


Thx for your advice.

greetz,

The weaknesses in each speak for themselves, but I could see how both could be fun to use.


Def 4042 / EnH 4404 / Hea 4040 / LS 0404


or


Def 4040 / EnH 2402 / Hea 3040 / LS 0404 / Pow 0400


Master of none, but looks fun, and gets kudo's for survivability, although not sure about how offensive it could be.
