I am trying to get to Jedi and desperately need help in developing a template to do it. I am getting my butt kicked by the Sith encounters to unlock my Force skills slots. Please help me!!!

If you're master all I can do is laugh at you......... master swordsman is all you need, hell most 0-0-4-0 brawler's could kill them with ease

I am not refering to the Sith that come from the FS / Old Man thing. I am refering to the Melee Acc Force skill quest. I could take them if they came one at a time but I get 6 of them and if I try to run their range kills me before I can get out of range. Oh and again I am looking for advice on templates. Not for you to laugh and give nothing useful.

I tried it grouped with a Swordsman/Doc. We still died. And everyone says if you have more than two you don't get credit.

i havent done it but... if 1 person does it you get the special colored LS crystal. if 2 do it you get the mind buff crystal. so maybe only 2 can be in your group. get some more people to tag along (guildies) but dont have them grouped, just get them to run dmg control while you and your partner get the mission done.

Guys... template advice. TEMPLATE ADVICE. Not tactics. I've tried many different tactics. I die in seconds. SECONDS. It's not the tactics

yes it is tactics. any temp can be destroyed by those guys. they are all 50k HAM 70% resists to my knowledge. thats not template its all about tactics. i could probably kill once with 0040 brawler, would take a bit of doing but i could do it by tactics alone not template cuz i would have none. what you think you are wanting is teh swordsman "god template" that can solo anything. THERE ISNT ONE! the people who can solo elders and krayts do so because they use tactics to outperform the enemy and become the victor.

dude you dont understand, no template will guarantee that you beat them. just cuz you have a template doesnt mean you will win.
but if you really want one: swordsman/doc so you can heal yourself.

I am not looking for a godlike template that will guarentee I will win every time. I am looking for a template that I won't die in 5 seconds while fully buffed and in full armor and PSG with 52% dodge buff and everything else I can think of. Got it? I died so fast REPEATEDLY that I couldn't even heal myself nor could the doctor who was helping me both times I had a partner.

You could always do Swordsman/Doc, or Swordsman/Rifle, or Swordsman/TKM..basically anything that would give you decent defenses or the ability to heal. Ranged isn't so hot against Jedi, since they more or less block everything, but melee (and defense stackers) seem to fare better against them.
I picked up Swords/Brawler/Pikeman/1-0-4-0 Fencer/4-0-0-0 TKM because the defense is fairly good and I have access to a range of damage types. Basically, if you can get them alone and have decent speed, defense, and attacks, you should be okay.
If you are fighting against Jedi don't wear armor, they slice right through it, and without, your regen is better.
Since you are asking about the Sith spawns, I'm assuming you are trying to do the melee accuracy quest this phase. Best thing I've heard is to draw them one at a time so you don't get swamped, then intimidate, warycry, etc, etc, making sure your doctor friend heals you when you need it.
