Thread: BH Fight Advice
k, im just gonna tell you what i would do, and i have been playing since launch so i consider myself a pretty experienced player and i know what im doing especially when it comes to pvp.
First i dont really like the foods you are eating. I would use Mandalorian wine for small health buff + action and mind regens, Pikatta pie is good, crispic is important also for better accuracy, Ruby bliel for 30 second stim down time instead of 1 minute, exo-protien wafers for dmg reduction (if you start taking heavy dmg then pop one of these, they only last for about 20 seconds but they are only 5 filling and you can eat alot of them), booster blue of course, and some kind of ranged or mellee defense food (depending on who your fighting) is good also. Always make sure there are at least one of all the above items in one of your toolbar slots. I keep my pvp specials and all that on the first toolbar and foods and self buffs on the second toolbar. Preperation is the most important thing in pvp so whoever is more prepared is probably going to win.
Now i could imagine it would be a bit difficult keeping in range of a bh with the template you have so you will have to use your surroundings to your advantage. If you are outdoors then try to get indoors somewhere so the bh will have to come to you and play on your terms instead of his out in the open where he can kite you all day. Also i dont think using dervish as the default attack is very wise, I would use saber hit or saber throw if hes kiting you. Using saberhit as your default attack will save you action and force and it still does enough dmg to make him heal after a few hits. If you cant outdmg his heals then try to run his mind down best you can. Once his mind is gone then hes finished. This would be easier for you to do if you had 2000 enhancer instead of 0002, you would be able to keep force run 1 on so he would have a difficult time kiting you, also you would get a root and force speed.
Other then that just keep him armor broke, use powerattack as much as possible, and after a kd it is possible to get 2 hits in while he is kd, use saber hit first then head leg or body hit (not sure if you could get power attack in there in time) Also use good timing on your kd's, try to get him right before he has to heal. Well cant really think of anything else atm, hope this has helped a little.

Don't forget too that while you don't have Force Run you DO have Burst Run... so keep some burst run food on you (Parawan Nutricakeallows you to immediately re-activate Burst Run...) and Terrain Negotiation food (Travel Biscuits). And if you KD the BH at a distance, close the distance while using saber throw to keep damage ticking so even if you don't get to him before he stands up, he'll have to heal upimmediately.
Don't worry about your template... it's still a very viable PvP template. Like any engagement, from 1v1 PvP to an all-out war between nations, it pays to dictate the conditions of the fight. As was mentioned above, BH's tend to be ranged and WILL try to kite you and/or DoT you - their big adantage is two-fold: surprise, and choice of locaation. Try to move the location of the fight to one most favourable to you. If the BH has to come within saber range because you are in a building or have some terrain to use, then you have given yourself a huge advantage - you'll be doing the damage and the BH will be healing. With your template I'd try to avoid being caught out in the open and if you are, Force Valor is your friend as you try to retreat to more a more favourable environment.
Peace.

To help with timing for KD I use Armor Break as a timer. When it goes up I know I can use it again.
I use just about the same combo of attacks.
