Jedi Template - Dodge +25 or a Box in Melee Defense

[kithsyn]

If I'm hunting jedi and you had to choose between +25 dodge and +10 melee defense (+pistol speed), which would it be?

I'm assuming since most of the time I will be using the LLC and not my pistol, that melee defense wins out no matter what....but could there be times when I would want to use pistol to apply states?

Right now I'm thinking
MBH
Scout 44xx
Pistols 4043 (or might be 3044 can't remember right now)
Nov Brawler

Melee Defense > Dodge, especially if you're not even using a pistol/1h and also intimidate kills Dodge. So any Jedi running Powersxx2x, will shut that off completely.

If you're already at 125 melee defense, then take the dodge. Otherwise take the +10 over a potential +dodge+ roll.

Agreed, I wouldn't even worry about dodge unless you plan on using pistols.

Dodge and melee defense does not work when fighting a jedi. Tested against a jedi blinded with no accuracy food. Hits with lightsaber everytime. I would take the melee defense line for the pistol kd. Fast blast better than bodyshot3.

Narrk, I always appreciate your insight on BH matters. Would you mind if I contacted you in game with a few questions?

Thanks again!

I haven't been on Narrk for a while. Send me mail with your questions. I will log later tonight to check my mail.

Sorry I missed you and today have been out of town (looks like it didn't matter anyway). What are your other toons?
