OK, my template right now for PvP is this:


Master Swords

TKA 0103

Fencer 0204

Doctor 4004


Ive done ok with this template thus far, but my weakness has always been to the fast pre-CU jedi. Im useful in a group because I can tank well, and I can buff people. The problem with the jedi though is that they just hit too fast and too hardfor my heals to keep up as well as deal them good damage, so speed debuffing them would be nice.


Im thinking of changing it to this:


Master Swords

TKA 0100

Master Brawler

Doctor 4004

Pikeman 0040


I've put both into a profession calculator and I would lose my action debuff and my snare with this newest template, as well as about 50 accuracy. But with this new template I would gain intimidate and warcry, as well as gain 20 more speed I think. I would also be more useful to a group as I can warcry people and I can also tank a bit better with the higher defense this template gives. Im thinking that the lower accuracy will really hurt though. I have +50 acc in tapesand I use crispic religiously but there are still some people who I always have difficulties hitting. I can use corellian ale and nullify that, but a 60 second boost to acc for 18 fill or something is kind of a high price.


I wouldnt really lose an attack since I usually use a combo of crit/head/body... now it would just be crit/head/leg.


Any advice would be greatly appreciated on which is better for both a group and solo PvP.

I like ur original template so much I may steal it from you.


The second one is ok but I like the first one more. accuracy is vital specially if u use a speed pup onyour hammer. And I just cant bring my self to droping binding strike for the Bind/KD/cheer me combo


If pre CU jedi are your only weakness I think the originaltemplate must rock

If you're concerned with dueling and not "real" PvP, I would suggest dropping down to novice medic. Buffs should be available from others and you can heal forabout 1.2k with droid and BE clothing. This frees up a lot of skill points so that you can really make some interesting combos.

Where did I say im concerned with dueling? I have dueled once I think, in the past 3 weeks and that was with a guildie who wanted to test his jedi temp vs. me.


What I mean by solo PvP is whenno one in my guild is on, or the ones who are on are still grinding. So I go overt and run around places like bestine and theed looking for 1v1 fights.


The reason I have doc 4004 is so that I can buff my group up because I think I'm 1 of 2 doctors in my guild who actively play and can buff. I have a droid but rarely use it, and have +25 in healing efficency tapes. I invested in defense clothes as well.

lol anyone who duels someone else whose using a he droid is a dumbsh**. and if its true dueling than each player only uses skills from their own templates and their own equipment, meaning if you dont have the doc buff line your not allowed to buff yourself (since you have instead chosen more mods and abilities), but they can still use any foods/armor/spice bought from others (yes there is a difference, since equipment isnt a matter of skill points).


anything other than that is bs, not a duel.

The 2nd template is the hotness.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE WARCRY.
2nd most useful attack in melee, just behind AB. Intimidate ranks up there as well.
You also get an Area KD with that template as well, which works wonders in group PvP or fighting multiple opponents.
It's truly annoying to stick warcry on people, then KD them and watch em try to heal. Makes me smile really.

After some deliberation I decided to go with the 2nd template heh. I already have gotten to novice pikes and master brawler and the area KD rocks so far


I decided the loss of snare and 50acc was worth it for an area KD, warcry and intim.

Meh, to each their own. There are two way to fight: 1. to win, and 2. to please someone else's ego.

I didn't mean to infer anything here. I was just providing a solution to your problem of beating pre-cu jedi with good sabers.
