Pre-cu question

I was bored and remembering old times and I wanna ask people who played pre-cu if u think u coulda beat either of my pvp beasts and what your template was and the gear u had. I honestly believe that I was the strongest 1vs1 dueler on any server with my gear and templates. Toon #1 TAXYOU AXYOU was a master swordsman, pikeman 2004, doc 3040,with some fs meele speed and his gear was a 610mind poison (exceptional) NS lance 109% pot, 299 mind fire lance, 447/1023 power hammer, 90% base comp with 39% stun adk'd and with at least +25 meele def, +12 2h speed,+25 2h acc, +25 polerarm speed, +25 polerarm acc, +17 def vs posture change down, +25 def vs dizzy and a adk's ls resist 69% psg. Tax was unstopable and I only ever lost 2-3 duels in the last 4 months of the pre-cu and I only lost because of some wierd bug or heal glitch and 1 Jedi named Aiab could beat me fair n square but the last few duels I figured out how to beat him to. I was always the first person the rebels would target in large scale pvp because they new what kinda arsenal I was packing ).
My other pvp beast was a little known toon named Choto Iketh who was master rifleman/ master doc and he had a serious krayted jawa I cant remember exact stats but I know min damage was over 350 with no power-up and he also had a few uber dotted rifles. I cant remeber exact stats but I know the one dxr I looted from Geo caves was 200+ mind fire and I looted a 340+ mind poison laser rifle weeks before the CU. Choto had awsome mods and adk'd psg but no adk's on his armor and I also made uber cures from Jaunta bloods along with realy good stims for pvp. This toon did well against meele stackers and pretty much anything but Mdef Jedi.
So what pvp toon did u have and cherish and what kinda weopons were u packing?? Do ya think u coulda beat Tax? My server was Naritus and anyone who knew me as a pvper knew I had all the gear mentioned above so I am not bsing at all, my toon scared other players away lol.

Players who emphasized templates too much were normally the ones to die quickest.
Besides dueling might be fun, but the real battles were always with groups, where if anything over-reliance on one persons template was a death wish. We had someone like that on Eclipse, 750 mind fire pistol. It took tactics, we just brought a doc and a cm/rifleman with a 580 unpoweruped Jawa rifle and heavy dots. Since his team relied so much on him, when he was dispersed in 4 seconds, they ran like scared girls, and hence 2 of us beat 6 of them.
Give me tactics over templates anyday of the week.
one-on-one PvP never decides anything except who has the bigger ego.

I agree with u that tactics play the most vital role in victory and I was very good at bolth group pvp and dueling, u are right if I was targeted by enough Rebels then I would die fast but there was afew large scale battles where I clearly made an impact. I do think when it comes to 1vs1 dueling that Tax was almost unbeatable and I was proud of that and woulda liked to duel some of the other server's big dogs. The peak of my pvp frenzie was the actual last day of pre-cu when I loged in overt in Coro unbuffed and still managed to kill 4 rifleman at the same time! The food macro was enough to give me fighting power and I quickly stacked my dots on them while running in and out of Coro SP, I was kiting the rifleman lol and as I stood there over the DB'd corpses I was hyped up and all full of adreniline. I miss those days so much and I dont care what any SWG player says the pre-cu system was the most advanced and complex by far!

There was no levels pre-cu and even if u had an ego pre-cu u still had to aquire gear and make your template. 1vs1 duels rocked pre-cu and could last up to 20+ minutes if bolth players were good and the thing I liked most about pre-cu was every template had a weakness to it. I do think that items were a bit unbalanced but I had a few of them items lol so I didnt complain.

Back before PSG's got a lot more powerful, and stun armor only stopped so much, I had a 580 Jawa unpupped. That thing packed a nasty punch, especially when you found the idiot who wore composite.
Those heavy DOT weapons were the only real things that would drop me fast. That and CMs. I was a stacker and I'll admit it.
But I was a good stacker. TKM, 3 trees of fencer, some pistoleer, and FS trees or medic trees depending on where I was. I tanked DJMs pre CU. It was nearly impossible to KD me. I had a VK that was made from some nice NS motors and I got a sweet dmg slice on it when I had master smuggler. I think it was around 250 unpupped.
Back when fencer was the FOTM and scatter hit would bypass armor, I still tore up fencers who thought they were all that and a bucket of chicken. When they fixed that, even the fencers with their Acklay stun batons would lose to me. Tactics and knowing your skills mattered more than the uber template.

I put a lot of work into making Skin Rudenko a true pvp commando (Master Commando, 4040 Fencer, 4003 Pistoleer, I think it was). I knew only 1 or 2 other commandos that pvped regularly. I had the 40%stun 80%+base comp, sliced adk'd psgs, all the best foods I could find, but my real claim to fame was my flamethrower combo: a 990dmg 1.9spd and a 1300dmg 2.6spd.
My favorite pvp memories would have to be patrolling Naritus with <IWCS>. We weren't a dozen rifle/doc rifle/cm fencer/doc etc etc; we'd run a 5 man squad with a BH/carb, commando/fencer, carb/doc, rifle/fencer, swords/doc, and it was as if we could take on anything.
It'd be nice if we could have that all back...
I wonder if someone could set up site with a poll/counter of how many subs SOE would pick up if they brought pre-cu back, something like an online petition where you can sign your name and how many accounts you'd keep.

Skin was up man its been a long time! I realy miss the old days of pvp and yea man I remember u as one of the very few comando pvp'ers pre-cu and u were very good with your template especialy in group pvp. I mostly miss obliterating the Rebels in Carida and taking the fight to Hazzard or Asgard ( man those were awsome times when I would be loged in for up to 6+ hours a day.
