I've been hunting black sun on Yavin for the past few days (all ranged and they do kite but will go melee if you get them in nice and close) and I've found that the best way to fight them and keep them from using ranged is to aggro them and then sit behind a rock (they can hit you thru trees which I find to be interesting) until they come to me. Lunge 1 doesn't work often on upper lvl mobs and burst/follow doesn't work too well when you don't have terrain nego. and this may be the lazy man's solution but it works. GL with your template, I have also considered going this way as I miss TKA but love being a doc. Also, master doc does make a difference but you can get +25 wound/injury treament bioed clothes and add a hit of Bivoli to increse your buffs

Happy hunting to ya!

Actually, it works great on upper level mobs. What it won't do it knock them to their knees, but if you spam it a few times, 9 times out of 10 it will get them to stop and turn to fight you.

Well, here is what I think I'm going to do. Swordsman doesn't give much ranged defense, but fencer does, so my template is going to be:


Master Sword


Master Med


Doc 0044


Fencer 4030


That will give me alot more defense against ranged, plus some dodge abilities. But I will have to drop my Scout terrain abilities, which helps with the extended Sprint skills, but I don't know if this will help or not. I will try my template, and if it does not work, I can always dump Fencer and get back my scout skills.







I dont believe you will be able to buff yourself with this template. You need enhanced wound treatment to buff.


So maybe Doc 0/2/4/0


That gives you the ability to buff and MU 90. And you can do what most docs do and just buy your buff packs.

Your going to need master doc to make money selling buffs. You don't get the schems for all the good enhance packs until you hit master.


Resources are **edit**te right now anyways. I won't even buff right now b/c the profit is so low.
