That crystal is probably a premium. Get a Jedi to read it to confirm it, then sell it for big cash!!

anything is possible really, ive killed elderswithout the need to heal once, ive also used 40+stims other times, there very fical women so be weary
IMO they are easiest to kill when holding a standard ns' lance, and hardest to kill while holding a PH, cause ive killed em with both 
(oh and have yet to feel stunbaton wrath) but they are possible to kill w/ PH it just hurts a lot, and yes you do need some medic for that

The toughest battle is an Elder with a Stun Baton, as I only have a Stun Helmet lol.But soloing an Elder isn't my best achievement with this toon. That would have to be fighting 5 N.S. Stalkers at once and coming out on top.Unbreakable110
Try 4 stalkers, 2 weavers, and a protector on you....then a noob comes and draws some more to me! One of them the guy lured to me must have had a bat cause I died in like 3 seconds after the 2nd set agroed me........

Sorry to post another temp question. But as aMaster Swordsman, 4440 fencer, 4004 TK, 2340 medic, and fs melee speed I should be good to go right. This gives me60 dizzy defence, 75 kd defence, 60 posture down defence, 151 melee defence, 90 dodge, 71 defence acuity and I have a 4.5 spd 616 dmg PH. And should I use my 70% base 30% stun armor, or my 80% kinetic 65% base armor, and should I use a PSG? Again sorry for the templete question.

don't waste your stun armour on them - if I spotted an elder with a stun baton I'd run a mile ...

Yeah thats a great template to take them. Thats what I used for a long time and would notice the Mswords/Mdoc's having more of a problem due to their lack of defenses. But now it seems they have nerfed the elders. Me and another guy who have been hunting them for a long time have noticed a big difference in the damage outputs of the elders and not just the one's with the sb's. It has become very difficult to take one down solo.

is being speed capped a must? I am Master Swords/Master Brawler/Novice Fencer (for now) and have trouble with them. I get all the buffs and stuff and don't even make a dent in them.
