Thread: How many RM hate Jedi?

Well, look at it this way. Did you ever see a jedi get hit by a blaster in any of the movies or comic books or anytihng? Very rarely. Just because you are a Master in a profession doesn't mean you should be able to kill another profession. I agree about the FRS/fight clubbers, but I also understand that Jedi are VERY vulnerable to melee profs and are understandably very GOOD against ranged.
lets review the facts...from books as well...
jedi masters and jedi COUNCIL MEMBERS were afraid of 2 droidekas and droidekas in general. they're shield was IMPENETRABLE by lightsaber,blaster bolts or light artillery...only a commando type in this game would be able to do any damage to one.
secondly every jedi in this game and their mother thinks are obi wan or anakin or luke or the emperor and they deserve to be godmode because "jedi" were like that. unfortunately here comes episode 3. the jedi freakin purge.
jedi will be destroyed by anakin (1 jedi) + emperor's SOLDIERS/droids... prolly general grievous in there as well..and wow..look at that..hes a freakin robot.
whenever a jedi in this game reffers to jedi and is proven wrong..he then reffers to one of the main characters in the movies who dont die because..duh..theyre the main characters....something they cant perceive it seems is that no one in this game is the main characters nor will they be...so the abilities displayed in the movies doesnt mean they gotta have them as well.
saber block should be just a block modifier and nothing else...pure and simple...they have force armor for defense. on top of that..get this ..in the newest book leading up to Episode 3 called "labyrinth of evil" which fallows anakin and obi reffers to the lightsaberas an ENERGY weapon...law and behold...no "lightsaber damage"
i can go on with proof and facts...the problem is that this game needs jedi for soe to $ in...but in the meantime most of us ranged people get shafted. im really giddy to see what the cu really brings...if jedi are the power they are now people will either become jedi or leave...either way the game going to the crapper
...that being said, I'd concur with the above tactics to kill them, even Knights. To sum up:
1) Get a tank to keep them away from you.
2) Strafe with an accurate DXR (usually, i let the tank do the health damage and I just hit Head3
).
In Episode II, Jango shot a Jedi. Also, Luke got shot on Jabbas skiff if my memory serves...

Silly question - why a jawa vs jedi? That is like handicapping yourself. Damage is all that matters vs Jedi as they can not wear armor and therefore you do not need a can opener.
