alright dear god thanks guys, i used level two lightning a few times and a couple swipes with my 2x lightsaber(purple haha!) and i guess my problem is he would cast like choke or kill on me, and then slice at me with power attack. i am a jedi consular(or sith something i think soon

)which means i get very little vitality points, i think i have 70 something. and almost 200 force points.now im prospering well on korriban, and thanks very much for the advice, though it took like 7 tries. i was about to start over.
