Okay, last night I went to Dathomir and had to feigndeath -- but those chicas kept hitting me while I was feigning! How is it possible for NPCs to do this?


Altogether, it was a bummer of an experience. Pistols seem to do no damage At All to Nightsisters -- neither acid, stun,nor energy pistols. That, however, is an issue for another forum... At least the company was good.

Somethings sounds bugged. I have used FD many times on them and it always works. Kinetic and blast are your best damage types against them.

Same thing happened to me before when npc's got their specials back. My theory is that they were using an AOE attack.

I never even WENT to Dathomir until I was a Double master pistoleer smuggler... and I tried to fight one just for fun, to see if I could get some rad loot. I got wasted before I even computed 'uh oh I think I better run away now'.


And that shouldn't be. Some NPCs have far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far too much HAM. *cough cough* Battle Droids *cough cough*. Battle Droids should have less HAM than Meatlumps. One shot they're gone.


I know high end NPCs are supposed to be tough, but how can people consider it FUN to sit there whacking a Battle Droid or a Night sister for 5 minutes before it falls. It's rediculous and very un-fun to me.


I've said it a dozen times, and I'll say it another dozen: I don't care WHO you are, if I shoot you in the face with a Republicat 1m, YOUSHOULD BE DEAD.

You're not supposed to be able to take them on alone anyway. Find some friends and use tactics, that was fun for me.

This game is not a tactical shooter like Rainbox Six, in fact, it's not even a shooter

They probably were using AOE attacks. Back when you could FD/bleed krayts to death I used to hunt them fairly often, and if I had a pet or a friend next to me while I feigned, those stupid dragons would kick my "corpse" around like a ragdoll.

The really tough Nightsisters are practically invulnerable to anything a smuggler/pistoleer can use (though it would help if Stryker pistols weren't crap), but the mid-level ones get beat down by energy pretty well. Last Ditch with a Republic Blaster and they shouldn't be any trouble.
