with the new chef foods/drinks, power boosts, moun, and the stun helms, everyone can get all their mind stats above 3k very easily... bleeds are pretty worthless after the patch...


so its time to look at our other options... we have a dizzy but no KD, we have a stun shot (good for fighting zabraks), and we have our SS2... all of these are random pool shots...


i'm not all that experianced at PvP, but i've been around a time or 2... and if you have a good group, flurry shot 2 that sticks on a couple ppl let someone else KD them spam SS2 withthe jawa (nobody wears more than an stun layered helm)...


i've been useing SS2 more and more in the last couple of weeks, it kills almost as fast as the HS's do, sometimes faster espically if there is a brawler class also beating on the target... everyone is so worried about their minds (rightly so) that they leave the rest of their bodies vunerable to stun...



so take care in the next week or so after the new food becomes easy to get... the HS, HS, HS, DB might not work as well anymore, be prepared to change your tactics...


if you can find a master carbineer team up, between the 2 of you, you get the dizzy/KD... if ya get someone on the ground SS2+cripple shot spams= instant death...


any one else have thoughts on these ideas????

I can just see a "Wait for the Combat Revamp" and "Wait for the Smuggler Revamp" quote all rolled into one.
"Wait for the Smuggbat Revamp"
Smuggbat, I like that

I found myself in a PvP group the other day. I'm not a master, so I hesitated to, but I'm a MSL, so what the hell.


Anyways, the tactic I used was thus: When the brawlers or pistoleers were pounding someone, I used FS2. When I was soloing the jackass, I used HS3. One person definetly had a stun layer of protection, but it only took a fiew more shots. Next time, on a person like that, I'll use SS2, though. ( almost master )

Suppression shot from marksman ranged support tree is a posture change down attack. Works just as good as KD to keep someone on the ground.

Yes I know my enemies. They're the teachers who taught me to fight me
Compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission
Ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite
All of which are American dreams

ok anyone that doesnt wear a full set of stun comp is kinda stupid if tjhey r heavy pvp'rs. its costly but i only wear the best. now. flurry2 and supression r a ok match. BUT su[ressio 1 doesnt land 3/4 of the time. er only 25% of the time it will stick. and they can easily recover from that while dizzy. a better combo owuld be flurry2.supressoin (if it will stick) and flushing 2


so u dizzy-lower posture- raise posture


the stun layer ocmp is key for master fencers. trust me they cut right threw normal comp. but my ranged and melee defense r so high it doesnt bother me cause they cant hit me lol. keep the armor just incase

Whats the point of the flushing2 in yourbetter example? In my experience flushings hotposture change wont causea knockdown on someone thats dizzy, only the persons own posture changes (ie stand or run while kneeling,will result in a knockdown.

Careful with AoE attacks in PvP. Whoever isn't actively engaged on someone else will imidiately start autofiring on you. AoE's are a good way to get 3+ people all on you.
