Pub 24 will be here soon. Take the opportunity to see what available and how the BHs will use it against you. . .


These are buffs that can be applied pre-attack and will remain during their battle with you. . . I am not sure of the duration on these buffs nor do I know if the SL needs to be in a certain range for them to apply. I'm sure someone out there can clarify.


Remember, we can use them in the same way the BHs can so I suggest we brainstorm and discuss the best way to use these to OUR advantage.. . the volly fire is what scares me; but at least we can use it against them in the same way . . .



Steady Aim (Strategy I) - Enhances group accuracy.


Call to Arms (Strategy III) - Enhances group armor ratings.


Volley Fire (Strategy IV) - Gives group members the chance to bypass enemy armor.


Tactics (Tactics I) - Enhances group defenses.


Blaze of Glory (Tactics III) - Gives or enhances the chance to score a critical hit.


Double Time (Tactics IV) - Reduces cooldown times for group members.


Boost Morale (Leadership IV) - Enhances group Action/Mind regeneration.


Form Up (Mobility II) - Enhances group movement speed.


Toughen (Tactics II) - Increases the armor rating of a single group member.


High Yield (Strategy II) - Increases the damage output of a single group member.

I for one will be grinding a second account to SL in order to be grouped. Not only will it benefit me but other jedi as well. ..

ok - these buffs are short lived will only stick to the BH for 45 secs or so and to do that the SL will have to track you with the BH and apply the buff just before the BH attacks - currently these buffs cant be applied to yourself - only other group members.. the ONLY time this is of real playable use is when a BH/SL/4xxx CM temp meets up with another BH who has your mission and can SL buff him during the contest.


Also volly fire is only effective vs a target attackable by the BH - his grouped SL friend cant all a volley fire on you coz he will just get invalid target messages...

hmm dont think thats true... and only one can be active (per SL in the group)at any one time...

edit -did some more research - they are 10 min duration but only one active at a time - still a single SL buff active isnt gonna be a huge change

My GUESS would be that the armor bypass group buff would be the buff of choice whereas jedi would choose enhanced armor rating or the armor bypass

An 8 man squad, with say...3 squad 'leaders'. Thats going to be pretty tough if they have 3x action/mind regen, 3x defence buff, 3x action buff...
