As title says, what weapon would be best for hunting Jedi. I currently have a 440 max damage scythe, a 411 max damage executioners hack, and a 697 odd max PowerHammer. I am speedcapped, with +12 accuracy from skill tapes, so I hit pretty much all the time with my Acklay hammer. I also have +-25million to spend on a better weapon if needed. So of all these weapons which would be my best choice for hunting Jedi?
P.S. The min damage on my Acklay hammer is incredibly low, something like 220.

well, mitigation doesnt hurt you vs jedi, and neither do uber defences. so i would spend some cash on a great hammer, something 750+ max. Since you are capped this will give you the highest dps. i use scythes in situations where i might be fighting a stacker and need the extra accuracy. I suppose if the jedi is a defender you might go with a scythe if you find yyourself missing alot.

Ok, thanks a lot for the input. I'll be looking around in the galaxy trade for an Acklay hammer then. Thanks again for the fast reply.

more advice from a swordsman who has killed his share of jedi you say? ok
1. intimidate every time they arent intimidated. sure they are going to heal themselves of it, but that uses force. force that they then cant use to heal HAM or hurt you.
2. master brawler helps alot. lunge2 is a solid KD, can work when they run.
3. if you know you are fighting just a jedi do not wear armor. get some good BE clothing with stun/melee and injury treatment. do wear an imperial PSG if you can afford to. wearing armor increases saber damage, so dont wear it unless they have their non-jedi friends.
4. they cant heal fire unless they are master healer. get a fire dot weapon. even if it isnt a very good dot, being on fire will shake the jedi's nerve. so even a weak fire will be an advatage.
5. run the CoB macro and get counterattack SEAs. even at master sabers jedi do not have the best accuracy.
6. intimidate again. i cant stress this enough. its a double edged sword that you are weilding. if they dont heal it great, they cant hurt you. if they do heal it great, they are using up force passively.
good hunting!

I'm going to be using it with 4xxx bh,(so yes a melee/bh), so I can't get master brawler. I do Intimidate and I do realize the importance of that. I can't wear a PSG because I have some Speed Attachments and counter and accuracy in a Mabari Belt. I have a total of +8 counterattack(not 2h melee counterattacks) atm, and am still looking for more. Another question then: Is it true that Accuracy from SEAs caps at +25, I read somewhere that there is no *true* cap to accuracy?

There's no cap on accuracy
Get all the counter-attack SEAs u can find at whatever price if u wanna solo jedi or any other hi-end NPC

unless you are speed capped with a hammer, the scythe is the way to go. i am speed capped with the scythe and i can pound alot of jedi with it.the scythe is does kinetic damage which jedi have no protection against and is alot more accurate than the hammer. whoever said that master brawler is good is absolutely right. lunge 2 is great, intimidate 2 is great, and warcry 2 is so damn funny when you delay a jedi for 20 seconds and just sit there healing yourself and running around them

You can Counterattack Elders?! Didn't know that... And yes I'm on the lookout for all 2h accuracy and Counterattack CAs on my trade board, but they are sure expensive; 4mil for +6 2h accuracy AA...

there is no cap on accuracy. however i do believe that you can only gain +25 from clothing. maybe not, but thats how i think it works.
