Im thinking its the Kashyyyk Bladed Staff, cause its kinetic and I havent seen anything that does more damage (kinetic wise) yet.
You?

Kinetic IS better against Jedi usually. The Bladestick fits that bill, but is a little light on damage compared to a Vibrolance. If you have a Kaminoan Greatstaff, that's much better. I usually drop to my Powerhammer to be honest.. but yeah a Bladestick can get the job done.

It shouldnt matter what damage you use against Jedi. A Jedi has from 20 (Initiate) to 70 (MDef) innate Armor. Thats 2000 to 7000 resist in every resist-type. So, get a pike with high min and max damge, good speed and low SAC= Best weapon against Jedi (and TK).

I don't understand exactly why.. but I've had a number of Jedi with Master Defender tell me that they block energy better than kinetic.. Dueling with them with my Vibrolance vs. my Powerhammer has supported this almost consistantly. The PH has a litttttttle more max damage, but not so much I could realistically blame the different results on it.

Some people may be thinking that kinetic dmg > energy dmg because if the Jedi wears a psg (since PSG willabsorb energy dmg), but as far as I know, a PSG only works versus ranged attacks? correct?

Hmmm, maybe its your higher accuracy when using a 2-handed weapon?

Kinetic vs Energy matters not to jedi /wink.
They both work the same since defender inate defenses protect against both the same. The best weapont o use would be the highest damage weapon you have, and adding a powerup to it.

A nice damage and low SAC in close range, then a Poisonspike when they start running.

Check out the listings in the Core Systems> Quests and Missions Board. The Bladestick is from the "Lost son of Chatook" quest, not looted...
