Ok, I don't PvP, mostly PvE...

so, Can I get along with just a T21 and DXR-6b and my trusty laser rifle?

I would think so, unless some creatures have too large energy and acid defences. But still T21 or DXR's damages are pretty high, so yes, you can get along without Jawa if you don't PvP.

The Jawa can be useful at times, especially when you're a Nov Rifleman and the best dam type for a creature is stun. It helps out when you have a real slow T21 or you're not qualified for the DXR-6B. It's always good to have as many damage types as possible on hand.

As a Master Rifleman who doesn't PvP, I have not used my Jawa in months.

I would trade my Jawa for a kenetic Tusken so that we can return to how it is in the movies. As it is now the "types" are cooked up so that my group can die, giving the devs a "warm fuzzy", when suddenly only the TKM or Swordsman in the group can only damage something that jumps us. Reason to group my arse...

...sorry, it's my day to be grumpy...

Ok, i've done the Darklighter missions and the Tusken King Rifle is still kinetic, right?

so if I reset Tat quests will I be stuck in Naboo/Corellia, since you can't reset naboo/corellia quests yet? or will resetting the quest cancel the whole quest line out?

as for buying a Kinetic Tusken, that's out of the question at this point...

I think they should replace the jawa with a kinetic damage rifle.

I still prefer the Jawa over any other rifle when doing missions on Dant. Just about everything there is vulnerable to stun instead of 50% to acid or energy. Tested it against my T21 on Mokk and the dps was the same but the HAM cost was much lower. No need for entertainer buffs with the Jawa.

Jawa has its uses, jumping unexpecting TEFd players, and tearing through enhanced Kwis and crazed geos in the geo cave and things like that.
