Which truely protects better? Obviously Master Defender takes a lot more skill points, but is it worth it? What are the thoughts of the Jedi profession board?

I hear that a mix of the 2 is awesome, but to answer your question with Force Armor vs Master Defender...


I pick Master Defender. You get a lot more out of it for defenses, but that is just my opinion.

If you want pure protection, get both, that should max out your innate armor. Mdef is better because all the defenses are passive (FA has a huge force cost), and also has AI which is a powerful ability. If you want nice defenses but you don't wanna tank a lot, go for FA.

I recently dumped master defender, in fact defender all together to go for a FA template with cloak and master sabers. I really miss master defender, not even for the AI but because the deffenses were a lot better. I really enjoy the dammage im doing with master sabers now though. I would prolly try a master sabers master def healer template if given the chance.

You don't need Master Defender unless you're a person who needs Avoid incap.Just grab Aura tree in Defender & Force armor.If you really want to go 1 better,then hit 4040 Defender & x4xx in enhancer.


Yes,having Master defender was great(had it,but dropped it during our respecs to try out templates),but took up too many pts.I would only suggest Master Defender if you just do strictly PVE.

could i ask why people say 4x4x Def. why exclude the ranged defense line? is it for when the FRS hits and your main care = other jedi?

Why do you even need the ranged def line when you have the aura and FA already,PLUS,tons of food or drinks to use with spice?Are you fearful of any BHs because with the above mentioned,they are no threat if you know how to play the game.


I wouldn't need to throw more def on myself when it comes to PVE either when friends have M.Def in the group.I'd say over 70% of the jedi right now are the FOTM anyhow,so finding M.Def amoung friends isn't hard to do
