As a Zabrak Master Rifle, what is my best option for attack against a jedi? Should it be a certain shot that leaves state?

A rifle equipped against a jedi withanything over about a 1/2complete LS template = death. You can prolong it using Ithorian mist, thakitillo and other foods that keep you off your back and if you have intimidate, warcry and dot weapons you can do even better, but you can't kite a jedi with force run and face to face you'll have a million and one states on you before you can say "boo". If you are only connecting on20, 30, even 40% of your shots, a decent jedi's regen rates and damage output against you will be enough to put you away.


Turn that around and get master tka with no other skills and you can walk up to a jediknight and start whacking and your melee toughness, accuracy and damage output will be enough to at least make it a prolonged battle and often times end the winner.

I appreciate all the insight. I have been slain by many different dark jedi here on Intrepid. I have lasted a bit and even killed a padawan or two by coming in at max range with my CM skills also. I just wanted to know if there was a better shot combo to go with to affect their states and slow some jedi powers.

The CM on the side helps too I guess

Aye, the CM will be your best aid - diseases especially so they can't be healed mid-battle. I recommend starting with flushingshot till you land a stun and then strafes to get the pools going down - don't waste your time with headshot as they can heal mind as easily as any other pool so you just want to do as much damage as you can as quickly as possible. Without intimidate it'd be very hard to hold out for long, but if you have intimidate and warcry, start with a warcry, and stack intimidates while they're warcried (doesn't break the warcry). Toss a disease as the warcry is about to wear off and then try to warcry again. Then I'd run circles trying to stun and deal damage with strafe. Doing that you'll do alright against the non master sabers, but against master sabers I don't think it'd be enough to hold out for too long.


Equipment:no armor of course if you can, the extra encumb will just make you drain faster. If your speed SEAs are in your armor, I'd probably still leave it unequipped and just use speed powerups - the slight reduction in damage is better than the extra encumberance. I'd recommend using your best range modded dxr6 so you have the best chances of connecting and possibly citros snow cake if you have room in your stomach as well as synthsteak, a brandy, ithorian mist, thakitillo or corellian brandy, deuterium pyro, durindfire, and if you have room a vegeparsine. I'd also recommend having exo-protein wafers hotkeyed for when your synthsteak wears out - the 5 filling, +26 damage reduction mid-fight can be priceless.

there are some uber t21's an i seen tusken rifles...(bria :S) they are like 500-2k dmg..(vary) but u can tear up jedi in a few hits with that to there head... just land 2 hits , or maybe just 1.. but they dont stand a chance to a master rifleman wit 1 of those.. so grind ur assoff with missions or killing ns

TK alone still has a hard time beating a Jedi. Get some pistol or fencer dodge in their and you're golden


Its amazing how a lightsaber can block 85% of ranged shots but against some Bruce Lee wannabe they can't block anything. You'd think the first thing he'd do is chop off his hands.
