Thread: My night of Solo PvP. 25 Kills 3 Deaths. It can be done. There is Hope.
Ha! Last night I was able to knock off 3 Imperials and come away without any deaths.
1st: A cheap victory, but a victory none the less. I was checking the Bazaar and saw a red pop up on the radar. Quickly I powerboosted and let my stats heal to full. Then I busted ass in there to find 2 Imperials, but they were split up. One was buying a ticket so he was my first target. An easy victory.
2nd: His friend comes running down the hall to try and take revenge, but I used the close proximity of the halls to my advantage and suffered 800 points of Eyeshot mind damage before taking him down. He complained of lag and that he couldn't find the starport again, to which I informed of /find starport.
3rd: Imperial waiting for the Shuttle. I loaded and waited a few seconds. I changed from my pistol to unarmed and waited a few seconds. I then ran to him (standing next to ticket guy in Kor Vella Starport). He still had yet to move so I started wailing on him. By the time he stood up and started to run away I broke out my pistol because I didn't feel like chasing him around. He was the only one who complained.
My death: On Dathomir I got killed as i was auto-running back to the Science Outpost. Fortunately as a TK dieing in PvE bears little consiquence, so I went ahead and let myself die. Funny how things work out because I was 200m from the outpost, and when I came out of the Cloning Center with my Covert Status reactivated I see an Imperial with an At-ST and 2 other pets just sitting there. Heh.
So TK's are in fact effective in PvP, but you have to know what game you're playing, what your strengths are and what your weaknesses are.

The reason ppl came close to me i think is my title=)
You do realize that the bounty hunter title is impossible to get with the combination of skills you mentioned. Unarmed 4 + Master TK + Master Medic + Master Doc uses up almost all of your skill points, and you would not even have enough left over toeven make it topistoleer, let alone BH.
To the TKA who said he praticed pvp for 4 hours then died countless times when he tried to pvp, this post is for him/her
Hehe. I needed this, too. Tonight was another bad night of pvp for me, kept getting smoked by... er... everyone! Got pretty down after awhile, but I'm not about to give up. Only way to get better is by practicing more.
Do have a question though, you say that you used a pair of speed sliced vk's. Do you put them on once you've gotton your prey down on the ground? I've been going without vk's b/c my targets always seem to be moving, and it seems to me that having as much range as possible is crucial.
I do have 1 encouraging vignette though I was hanging out at my tailor's house, waiting for some be synth cloths on production at the factory, and this guy comes in and stands on top of me (i was sitting at the time). I say to him ''get the hell off of me or i'll put you in the ground'', pretty rude, but I was in a foul mood from getting my arse kicked up and down the block all night. About 2 minutes later, he challenges me to a duel, then puts on a scatter pistol, i guess trying to intimidate me showing off how he was a bh. Now, I'm not wearing a title (as i usually don't) so I walked right up to him, typed /duel, then proceeeded to pound the crap out of him. He hit me twice then was incapped. Mwaha!
I know what I'm capable of if i can just get close enough, and that's what keeps me going.
I dont usualy solo, but then I do to some degree. What i do is not declare and group with usualy some ranged weapon users, like a bh or somthing. they usualy run around in theed next the the water fall killing people as they see them. I try to stay near buildings and wait to pick targets that are either engaged on some one else, or just plain dont see me. after each kill i run out of town twords the river, and if i get anyone following me depending on the numbers i usualy burst run, or fight them using lunge +kd +uh3 combos.
my best run was around 17 kills before i died, my worst run has been 8 straight deaths before i killed anyone, that was when i was corvert, back when comandos would average 20 kills per death.
now with power boost things help out alot.
On the other hand my guild GM is a master doctor, and we have basicly owned moenia (im an imperail) for hours with just the two of us, because of his buffs. THe buffs in his orginal post is w/o a doubt the main reason he did so well, w/o em he would have lost half those fights, exlcuding the ones were he was fighting afkers etc.
