That's odd. I haven't had any trouble tanking them at all, and I'm only Master Swordsman and Novice Doc.
With buffs and ubese, the only ones who have even been able to do any damage to me are Spell Weavers and Elders.

When I first went out there, 2500 Buffs, Dancer and Musician Buffs, 3 Brandys, a Synthsteak, a group of 5 stalkers decimated me and I ended up needing to use a Pixie, and use Equilibrium. My armour wasn't the best at the time, so I think we're going to need 90% Base to be good, and avoid the Stun Batons. The thing that hurts with them, is their numbers, you have to draw one or two at a time.

As a speed capped master doc/swords, I was able to take 2 weavers and 3 sentinels at once. Used a dizzy stimtwice and a stim E once, 2 brandys and an azira (sp?).

You can't tank 5 at once like you used to..2-3 tops should be your focus, not the whole group. I'm sure the Force choke from all5 of them was quite pleasant. If you take the time to draw 1-2 at a time, you'll be fine. Just takes a change in strategy, and in the mentality that you can solo everything.

Yep, I'm aware of that now, this was before anyone had really done any testing.

So...............instead of being able to kill them quickly, you're going to kill them much slower as they chew you up with force powers and LS specials?

OUCH!! man I have no problem with the NPC's being able to do specials, but maybe they should be limited in the professions they can do!!!
I am waiting for the fisrt NS to pull Feign Death!!
