It's 2022 and this fight still sucks. I know I did this on a different toon years ago but couldn't remember how I did it. After probably 15-20k in repairs I came here. Tried the fight next to companion method, didn't work. I set Torian to tank, let him do most of the fighting and I stayed as far away as possible while still being able to shoot. Worked on the 1st try.
