good hunting
I was Master Smuggler/MBH/Pistolsxxx4 for a long time, and whilst it worked it just lacked that little something to stay in a fight for long against higher end stuff. I have recently dropped the pistols line (kept nov pistoleer) for Novice Medic. I then bought a BE Shirt with +18 Cure Efficiency and also acquired a +7 cure efficiency tape for my gloves.
I have not looked back, the extra mods give me the equivilent of medic xx4x which means I heal for 780+. With this healing a some nice high power stimm Ds I can now stay in the fight soo much longer. Even managed to solo a Gorax last night thanks to snare and low blow.
In all my time in SWG I have rarely had healing...I used to me triple threat in the old days and didnt have the points....since getting some extra healing I havent looked back....highly recommended.
My alt is Master Smuggler/BH and does just fine against the boss marks. I open with Stopping Shot, then Overwhelming, and then I start laying in the states and bleeds.
I also use the BE-enhanced drink that gives me over 100 in ranged accuracy, which increases damage. All in all I think I need to use an instant stim twice duringan encounter.
Root 'em/Shoot 'em/Loot 'em.

Call your friend the combat medic to heal you the whole time. Easy as pie then.
Exactly what ive done a couple of times but i dont want to have to count on this because i love the idea of a 1 vs 1 epic fight one fight i even had to use last ditch to finish the guy off which was a cool fight but this was against a silver elite mark with 19k health.
NEVER let low blow wear off, or dueling stance. get a combat droid, ya they ain't uber, but it will melee attack the boss for about 95pt every 2 sec, not shabby with the length of battle you get from these guys. Also it will get his attention from time to time which means you ain't getting shot. Also if you get incapped, the boss will turn to the droid instead of violating your dead body, so you get a round two.
Food, dStims, booster, buffs, ya need it all if you have no medic.
If the bosses ranged weapon is really eating your arse, get in melee with him. He will change to a blade of some type and it may be less painful. That has done it for me a couple o times.
However, after the you get it licked and do a few, you'll start blowing em off...cause you spend 20 times the time, money, and resources on these marks...last two gave me a jar of bugs
