What am i doing wrong?? (combat question)

[Odelay]

Hello all!

Enjoying the server so far- community is amazing! I have been working on several characters, grinding full templates. One sticking point for me has been NS farming... I have a full template swordsman def stacker. 89Kin armor, decent hammer (nothing special). I remeber in Live or even on Bas i could aggro 1/2 the stronghold (without elders) and live to tell the tale. I know mobs are harder on this server but i was out there and could barely handle 4-5 at a time, especially if a protector is involved (which took 6 min to kill). I guess my question is, what might i be missing that would be specific to this server over live or the others? I am 2 manning krayts without much issue and while i can tell they are tuned up it isnt undoable. That is why i feel i must be doing something wrong with these low to mid level NS... why am i barely able to kill them and having trouble surviving?

Not a whining post by any means, more of a "how can i do the things i enjoyed doing previously?"

Thanks to all!

I would imagine alot of it has to do with force powers. Krayts are mostly kinetic damage, mid to high-end force users have a mix of dmg tools. I would look at your combat logs and see what you are getting hit with the most when attacking the mobs.
