I'm a Master Doc / Master Pikeman, with Melee Accuracy(4) and Speed (4) Range D (4)Melee D (4)for FS.
I know that I don't have the stats of a stacker, but I'm not worried about that, I can hold my own in a fight. Even if I die.
Problem I'm having is I keep reading in here about different combo's in PVP, but I have yet to see anyone really mention LegHit3. Now I fully understand that action is cureable, but it is our only focused attack that we have. So why doesn't anyone use it?
Reason I ask is I have a Jedi friend, and we duel pretty often just so I can try different combo's and such. But thus far (even if he is being heal by a medic and his Force Heal) I've always taken him out via Action. We set up the duel Me vs Him + 5 stims from a Medic (More realistic PVP fight). After the 5 stims, the medic can no longer help him. Then he is forced to use his force for other things them smashing my face in. Anyways I have a crazy Action P DOT. But he can get rid of it with state cure (atleast till he runs out of Force). However I still always kill him via Action.
So why is it that most people opt not to use LegHit3 over Hit2? Anyadvice about any combowould be welcome
**I realise this is just one example, and it is in a controled state; and a jedi probably isn't the best to be experimenting on.**
Thanks

I use action fires/poison, and health poisons. . . especially against non - docs, b/cause the ones that have tims, their healing power will be drastically reduced...
on Jedi tho, most of the time, unless they get stuck KD for a while, i dont even get time to use DOTs, I just use the damage pike and spam area 2, and a mixutre of hit 2, both bleeds, and if he gets low action from hit 2, i will go straight to that......
the other reason most pikeman dont use leghit is b/cause they are only here for the DOTs, and could care less about the proff itself.........

it seems nowadays that mind is the magic HAM pool....i have around a 990 strength mind poison stack w/ pikes and a 100 str mind fire, but I DO use action fire on jedi
i believe kautan posted something about this awhile ago and it makes sense: most jedi dont have action heal on their hotkey bar so they use heal all which uses more force. what i do is kd+dizzy+ action fire stack around 300 str + 900 dmg LVA w/ leghit3
seems to work for me ^_^

I have a bh/pike and it can take down a lot of jedi easy i use leghit3 because it doesn't do a posture attack aside from area attack2 which i also use when they get kd/dizzy
i use 1k lvas, 550-280-277-270 action dots and basically only master healers can keep up with the heals
add in a antidecay ls psg and most dont stand a chance
I also have a jedi knight with a 509dmg ls and my basically my bh is a better tank / dmgdealer vs jedi
i just wished my bh had totalheal =P
