Using armour on Handmaiden

[limitedwhole]

Here is a good use for armour that typically goes unused. Not all your jedi need all the force powers. Moreover, a high strength Jedi, can kill an enemy in one round without the enhancement from master speed. I suggest, doublebladed lightsabers for the potent damage and extra attack. One nice armour is an upgraded Electromesh with Ablative IV and Armourweave V. It has...

Medium
DB: 8
Max Dex: 6
-1 DEX
Damage Resist 15/- Energy
Damage Immunity 60% Energy

This is perfect if you are the type of player to always have force valar up. She will be fairly invincible with this rig.

Available and good Force powers for lightside are
Heal: Nice maybe just one rank
Energy Resistance: Let her take the hit and select these force powers. It works for your whoel party and adds an extra 20/- to her resist.
Force Barrier: Descent for a tank.
Force Body: Could be if you intend to up her CHR/WIS and use lots of powers or throw lightsaber.
Stun: She should have descent CHR/WIS
Stun droid: An important power I usually don't select myself.
Force Push: Best power in the game bar none and you can use it with armour!
Throw Lightsaber: Always connects. Steady distance at range. Probably not though.

BAo-dur can likewise use this armour and do something similar. Also you can switch out your robe for Jal-Shey to get 60% immune to energy for Duels with the jedi bosses. Since handmaiden can't use Force Resist, you will want to give her force resist gear.

I think that would be the perfect combo for a character that you would just want to run in and hack all the enemies to pieces. With a double bladed lightsaber and lots of protection against blasters this character could stay in front while you stay behind while shocking them all or knocking them out with your force powers.

I usually use an upgraded Mandalorian Assault Armor.
