good for a big group, terrible for one on one since you have 0 def

0 defense? So you're saying Force absorb, feedback, shield and armor = 0 defense? Not to mention intimidate...

absorb and feedback is only vs force attacks like lightning
armor does provide some protection but drains your force so be careful
all in all you'd have no jedi innate armor which is bad when fighting alone

force armor gives innate armor. At x4xx you get 40 innate armor, the exact same as a mdef, but costs so much per hit. In one on one, you'll stand your ground, but your biggest worry is force. Unless you have a crapload of holocrons, be carefull as mpower attacks alone will drain you pretty good, and as most FA users will tell you, moreso than anyone else, our force is our life. I hunted with a spinner group the other day, and our medic went down, then the mdef spinner went down. With a channel macro, I was able to hold off about 10-15 pickets doing about 70 damage to me apiece after FA and aura, but my force went down to nothing.. Thankfully, it was long enough for me to heal both the medic and spinner, and for me to burstrun /cloak to lose aggro and pull some pickets out of the war and then stop all my macros drop cloak and regin force..

Point is it works, but you will have to learn to control your force better than anyone else. You should also worry against MLS users, as force absorb/feedback does not stop any of that, just other powers attacks. And armor break slices right through that innate armor..what is it, 65% reduction?

thnx for the info, yeah i didn't expect it to be easy, but i am a pretty quick learner and this template seems to meet my needs as far as i can tell, it looks like it would be pretty good for pvp, pve and RP as a dark jedi... thanks again for your input
