Thread: Mls or no Mls
Why MLS when you can get +50 Speed and Acc through tapes that makes you equal with MLS and knowing that every point above is almost useless cause of diminishing return ???
Futhermore advanced saber throw is totaly stupid ... when I kd someone I want to be near him to inflict the max dammage while he's on the ground so saber swipe is better...

This is why I prefer LS 0404, also. You can use your KD much more tactical since you dont have ranged attack and KD in the same attack. If you want to catch kiters, +root+ / run up while Saber Throwing / Power Attack / Head Hit / KD / Power Attack / Head Hit is much more devasting than KD / run up / face 30 sec KD immunity timer.

Advanced Saber Throw is not useless. It's a very utilitarian attack that not only performs a ranged KD, but also actually has decent damage. If you cannot see how this is useful...well....
...sure Jedi have snares/roots from Enhancer and things like that, but how are these any less "stupid"? They still require you to physically run into melee range, don't they?
And why MLS? Simple really. More attack options means better combat flexibility/speed (yeah yeah yeah, speed is supposedly broke...I know. That's why I know afew non-MLS's who suddenly went MLS..even thought they had their +50.../shurg). I love chaining combos together..something that is not as easily accomplished with say... x4x4.
The other reason: Not everyone has 50+ million credits to spend on attachments, nor do they have the uber sabers needed to compete. Master Lightsaber is very viable to newer Jedi as they don't have the resources that more established players have.
I seriously hate the "MLS is dumb, go buy CA's argument". Not everyone has that luxury, but many are misled into thinking that it's a viable alternative. x4x4 is fine....IF you've got the equipment. However, even with the equipment, I'd still never give up MLS.

MLS in my opinion. I have spent time at alot of other combinations, but I perfer MLS for the options you have. I have the saber, I can afford the CA's, but nothing is so satisfying as to hit someone for 1600 damage as they are on their back, then hit them with Head, legs and body hits as they are standing up and trying to heal too. I never macro any attacks, nor have I tried to bypass any timers. I have never had the need to cheat to win.
You add foods to your stats and you block an awful lot of shots, your accuracy as well, and you don't miss much. I also actually earned MLS long, long ago, in a game far and away better than it is now, so it is something I look to with accomplishment and pride.
Oh, and a ranged KD is kinda nice for those fleeing BH's so you can root and snare them to catch up and kill them faster.
