-Hiks





What do you mean by "their opponent's armor goes down"?


If you're talking about a non-player opponent's damage resistances getting lower as they get pounded on, that always happens once their HAM gets below a certain percentage of the original total. I can't remember the point when it starts, but if you're watching the resists on an Elder, for instance, at some point during the battle the percentageswill start decreasing as they get pounded on. They'll even end up quite vulnerable to damage types they were 100% against to begin with.


It's nothing to do with swordsman, and nothing to do with blast damage. Blast is just another damage type, is all.


Oh, and if you weren't talking about what I described above, then I have no clue what you mean, sorry

.... no, dont need a special Hammer, all Power Hammers do Blast damage.


Maybe the guys you watched fought against opponents with little Melee Damage Mitigation, or

they were wearing "kinetic only" Composite.


Best regards

That's like when I was in a group of 4 swordsmenkilling a Light Jedi Sentinel...1.2mil ham and 95% def w/LS vulnerability. Anyway, around 600k or 700k ham the defenses started to go down and they stopped at around 47 or 48%.

Light and Dark Jedi Enclaves on Yavin IV. They don't drop any loot though, about 4 credits if you're lucky, so the kill is for the the pride than the Loot it can drop.
