Ayusaru's Guardian/Duelist w/Pet (Hracca, Revanite - YES) (12/31/25)
-
This is a frustrating build for me to come up with. Jedi lacks dps in my opinion compared to general melee classes. The goal of this build was to get higher Strikethrough for PVP. But kept running into needs more damage, needs more damage, needs more damage. I am running out of ways to get that more damage. On my general melee dps builds I can get 29k before mitigation, while jedi only hits 19k. I still did manage near 20k peak dps with the build. hope you enjoy the build.
Overview: Tankyish Jedi capable of switching to Guardians Set for more Tanking ability.

More StrikethroughsCon:
Still lacking max Critical ChanceForce Sensitive: Taking a bit of Stamina, occasionally in testing the build was lacking Action. Taking Saber Throw because the build seems to lack attack abilities. Would like to take Luck but the build needed to shift from Luck to Strength to get high enough Strikethrough.

Jedi Battlemaster: Jedi saber abilities in my opinion deal very little damage and regardless if I take additional points in damage. Need Master Battlemaster to get Duelist's Jewelry Set, which does provide a nice cooldown improvement for Saber Flurry, which if each land hits with a strikethrough your looking at a hit that deals 15k to a player in PVP. Exacting Strikes is very beneficial as it gives the Jedi a large increase to Critical Chance, and while in Shien Form you lose alot of Critical Chance, so it compensates. I do not take Riposte, I think it is garbage because the likely hood of actually receiving a miss is low especially now with the 4.9 Update you largely Block more then receive misses.

Jedi Guardian: Jedi is especially good at getting Damage Decrease and boosting its RAW Energy and Kinetic protection. Evasion Value gets capped while in Shien Form. The 5.7 Update comments that Force Alacrity has been fixed to apply to Parry, you could treat it much like Saber Block now. Saber Block provides +10 Parry Chance, with 3 Points in Saber Reflect you get +9 Parry Chance. You get Master Guardian giving you access to Guardian Jewelry Set if you so choose.

Jedi Sage: Soothing Aura provides the punch that healing needs. Beyond that its always nice to have additional Healing Abilities. If you wanted to you could wear the Sage specific Jewelry Set.

Jedi Forms: Shien Form provides the best in defense Form I can think of. +15 Parry Chance, +15 Evasion Chance, +36 Evasion Value, at the cost of -10 Critical Chance, and -10 Strikethrough Chance. Ataru Form is another good alternative but will cut your defenses significantly but hard to pass up 35% more damage with Lightsabers.

Beast Master: Just the bare minimum to get the Pet Debuff removed.

Final thoughts:
The build looks good on paper, just lacks in dps, can improve the dps further with Ataru Form gaining more damage but suffers then for defense. Can switch out the Rakririan Burnout for Vercupti of Agazza food to get a trade off of Damage with Strikethrough Chance for more Critical Chance with Parry.
