Its become completely pointless to fight jedi anymore.
Most jedi hate to engage fights with me cause i am all Melee.
Basically it just ends up with me chasing the jedi till i get
sick of the chasing and i just walk away.
Burst run is too limited to be of any use.. Jedi FR3 is faster
then swoops. Getting in a good Lunge1/2 is nice but rare, or
a posture change from AE3. But on a fully buffed jedi even if
he/she is on there back can usually wait out the KD/Posture
change and then do a Force heal all. Then run away.
So i am curious, am i missing something here ??
Was it the Developers intention to basically make jedi master
escape artists ?? And i wont even talk about how lame it must
be to attack jedi with ranged.
I would hate to be a BH right now.

You can't overcome Force Run 3.
It's about the same speed as a swoop on even terrain, but if there are any hills/mountains around, FR is far superior to any vehicle.

I belive an AV-21, if you watch where you are going, can just about keep up, but I doubt anyone would want to risk it. Otherwise, become a Jedi yourself.
Swoops aren't all bad though, I know a group of people on my server chased a Dark Jedi all over Rori, and poisoned him to death.

Another lame aspect of it, is if you DoT/state effect a Jedi, they can FR outside of your range, heal up, then come back at you.

AV-21's can be destroyed with one saber throw. Trust me, i know. 
Force Run 3 outruns anything, don't even try to keep up, its impossible.

I'm aware of that fact, that's why I wouldn't advise using one. But it's not totally impossible I'm sure, but if the Jedi is smart, he'll destroy your vehicles and run.

Yea...if a Jedi with FR3 wants to run, let him - or you'll be losing your vehicle at the least.
