You need a character with the ghost perk as well as the alpha predator with the assassin perk. The weapons are the katana ( as the lightsaber ) and the set gun ( as force grab ). The gears are healing kits ( force heal ) and motion detectors ( as force sense ) then audio decoys ( as the force presentation ). The perks are fearless, adrenaline boost, as well as clotting. (If you were wondering clotted has more time for bleed so more damage per second)
jedi/sith pred build
@TheSenate Iām pretty sure did this a while back but glad to see so much new blood trying to revitalize this community šš I miss the weekly challenges and the comradery of the before time here on the forums, also what about clotting? Aside from making you bleed less I was unaware of any other side effects it had towards damage.
Fearless was of course for more melee damage and adrenaline boost is for more time for damage sense katana uses a lot of stamina. The net gun is for making people not shoot for more DPS ( so more time for DPS ) and the katana is just for lightsaber uses. Then as said clotted adds more time for the bleed so making more damage.
Then gear is just there to be honest.
Clotting extends the intervals between your blood splats as the predator. It in no way affects the bleeding damage parameter. In other words, its useless.
yeah, I have never, ever seen a fireteam player follow a blood trail to track a predator. I mean, Iāve done it as fireteam like 2 or 3 times, but nobody does it enough for it to justify a perk.
Exactly, if theyāre on offense chasing youā¦ theyre probably good enough to not need to see your blood trail to keep up. I think OP just didnāt read what the perk actually did though.
Oooo Iāll raise you on those perks for more difficult and more rewarding classes. However I think the Katana is no longer a safe option anymore.

even if you try to hunt the pred and follow his blood, youāll probably lose the blood drops in the jungle, and if he leaped you can no longer rely on the blood trail. If you canāt see him running, it is improbable youāll catch up. If you are chasing a pred, I use orbital scan (i think thatās what itās called) when they are in second wind, making it less difficult to hunt them.
Free tip, do not repeatedly spot the pred, spot where he is near so you don;t give him the suspision that someone is chasing him. When he pops a heal, imagine the surprise on his face when he realizes heās been followed.
honestly, the katana makes sense with how a lightsaber works, but If i were to make a jedi pred, i would use elder sword besides katana if i were to be aggressive which is my play style. The katana is for hit and run tactics, not for firefight full on battle tactics. I usually use the katana for the samurai (because duh) and scout, i feel more comforatable with at least one melee weapon on the scout, i rarely have a melee on scout though, i usually use the bow and smart disc, but when you are screwing up your smart disc ranged attacks, your effectiveness is lowered significantly.

I do agree if you are using a Jedi or Sith like build and wanting to use a melee attack then definitely the Elder sword is the way to go.
BUT combistick is also good for a duel bladed sith/jedi lightsaber, plus combistick is my favorite weapon in the entire game. MY second favorite weapons are tied between net gun, and bow,
my third favorite is the alpha sickle, I love the attacks on this and damage, but itās way to easy, I like a hint of challenge, okay now that i think of it alpha sickle might rank up with the number 2 spot.

The combi stick was by far my favorite weapon to use for my Sith build with the city Hunter version being much more visually appealing to looking like a lightsaber.

yeah, but if i were to make a jedi temple guard build, i would have the default look. But if your making any other lightsaber, use the city hunter variant.

oh yo i had fun with that build you gave me, chur budduh
I have done some research and a bad source has some questionable history, and to be completely honest I didnāt even think about the others. Starting the new Jedi pred build is the weapons. The starting weapon is the elder sword (which has more DPS potential and better damage output) then as the net gun of course for that force grab. The perks now include fearless, impenetrable ( for force protection ), and finally energy cell. ( the energy cell is faster regeneration for the force ) I say the best option might be for the alpha pred with the assassin perk for more damage. Then the gear is healing kits and bear traps. I might still be wrong but Thatās why I have your guyās help as some of the perks are a bit hard to understand the perks. Reply to the post or @ me if you have a better suggestion.
