Hero of the people - IA Class quest line....

[Brundhila]

This mission is confusing, how do I trap Darth jadus in the ships internal ray shielding? I try to fight him but its impossible to beat him. Any tips are appreciated.

[Kahzard]

Basically you fight him he goes dormant. One of the computers will become an active blue click. Click it and but heal up first because he is going to be ready to fight. Then you have to beat him again...another clicky and then beat him again another clicky then run to the reactor.

 

Honestly it is a really hard fight soloable yes I did manage to kill him once but was not prepared to fight again. It was late and I did not have the time to waste trying I just invited a friend to help me out.

Since my Kaliyo wasn't optimally geared at this point and the fact she sucks as tank (lololol 5 shotted). I went with Vector which worked well. My general tactic was to send him in first (Jadus bugged a ton though on the pulls), letting him do some damage and then start dishing out he pain, this way I took over aggro before Vector dies and Jadus is at 60-80% HP.

 

From this point on its a combination of fast attacks (snipe+Followthroughs), keeping armor penetration up with Scatter Shot; and rotation defensive abilities.

By using Shield Probe / Evasion / Flash Bang / Diversion(I LOVE diversion) and interrupting his strong casts with Distraction you keep the damage on you a lot lower.

By using a smart rotation on Cover Pulse, Leg Shot and Ambush (with reactive shot up preferably) you can try to keep him out of melee where he'll tear you up. If he does come in close use Debilitate and gain distance again.

 

If you have Biochem thats another useful thing, the level 32 (iirc) medpack packs a punch at that level.

 

The fight isn't extremely hard, but its really challenging. You really have to use ALL of your tools though.

I found Jadus to be fairly easy as a healer operative, using Kaliyo as tank and majority of the damage. However, after whittling his hp down for the first time, there was a small glitch in the consequent fights. I could not target him while he was on the bridge (a slightly raised platform at the end of the ship). Even doing melee tech abilities was difficult as it would say "Unable to Target" or something similar. Eventually I was able to hit him by running around him and spamming my skills; annoying still. Also, midway through the battle Kaliyo would have a "wounded" animation, still with near-full health, and blink near me as I moved around. Another weird glitch. Oh well, cool battle though.

[Noblemartel]

Seriously I am stuck on this fight and I cant continue my story quest because of it, and my problem is that Jadus is totally glitched out and I can't start the fight properly because of it. It's really annoying because up to this point I was really enjoying playing my imperial agent.

[DenimSamurai]

Not your fault. Don't get frustrated. Bioware dropped the ball on this fight. He is LoS bugged as all get out. My advice is just respec concealment for this fight and spam your melee abilities while running around like an idiot trying to get LoS on a guy RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU JESUS CHRIST BIOWARE ***.

[AntoniusDelitan]

Here's how I beat it as a sniper:

 

 

Use the bug-man.

 

Put your companion on passive. To start the fight, run up to The Boss, and hit him with your Debilitate. Then run away like a scared girl towards the computer consoles just off the isle towards the bridge entrance. This should draw The Boss off the command platform and totally out of the LoS issues.

 

Take Bugman off passive, let him go get CC'd.

 

First, CAST THE MOST IMPORTANT ABILITY IN THIS FIGHT!!! YOU WILL NOT WIN THIS FIGHT IF YOU DO NOT SHOOT THE BOSS WITH SHATTER SHOT RIGHT FREAKIN' NOW!!!

 

Now, you MUST interrupt EVERYTHING you can using everything you have. Use your Cover Pulse first. Then use your Distract. Then use Ambush knockback if you're Marksman spec. Then your Cover Pulse again. Then your Debilitate (I hope). Use ALL your defensive cooldowns. Use your shield. You need to literally use every tool in your disposal.

 

This is a DPS race. You will NOT tank The Boss's damage in ANY way shape or form. Interrupt all you can, and POUR ON THE DPS LIKE A MADMAN.

 

Good luck.

jadus unfortunately starts in the most bugged position possible, you have to be RIGHT UP ON HIM, seriously, like 2 inches away to aggro him. i literally spent about 50k credits in repairs trying to bring him down.

 

the closest i got w/o help involved using kaliyo to pull him down the stairs. by that time shes almost dead. stand around all the computer terminals on the right(as youre facing his starting position) and dance in and out of them LOS-ing his casts, i took him to 10% this way each tiem but he ended up killing me anyways. i ended up just taking a friend with me. if you go this route, have your friend meet you at the imp station and have him enter your ship first otherwise it will port him out when you take off.

 

this fight is a huge pain in the butt, but it SHOULD be doable even w/ the bad LOS problems. if you cant get him by los-ing his casts around all the computer terminals then just bring a friend:)

Thank you for the strategy...I made this quest attempt to many times to count. I even submitted two tickets to request help due to the bug...Bio deleted each ticket with no response (which angers me).

This stratagy worked great and I have completed quest!!!

Since my Kaliyo wasn't optimally geared at this point and the fact she sucks as tank (lololol 5 shotted).

 

*sigh* Another person who doesn't know how to use their companion. I use Kaliyo to solo champions. Nightly I solo the Heroic 4 [Lord Raxxus] Belsavis daily with Kaliyo.

 

She is an awesome tank if you know how to set her up, keep her geared and micro manage her little bit. If you aren't willing to do that, stop trash talking an amazing companion because you simply don't know how to use her or are simply unwilling to use her properly.

I'm sorry, but the text in red is simply wrong.

I did beat him without dieing once i figured out what to do in a straight run, without scatter shot. The key is to keep moving around the consoles to break his los. Interrupt him when he casts and use corrosive dart on him as much as possible. That way you keep on damaging him when when out of los. Not even Vector died in those fights.

[Sivlar]

Or you can just side with him and avoid the fight altogether.

[Lord_Libor]

invited a friend to help me out.

 

How can I do that?

[Riggz]

When I fought Jadus the fight was terribly bugged and I had no idea what to do (I'm a level 50 full columni geared now)

But all I did was ask a level 50 powertech guildy to come with me and he did and I just watched him do work.

 

My advice is go find a level 50 player and have him/her do it while you eat a hot pocket and watch

[ZaraGrace]

I just did the fight last night... I died 4-5 times - partly because the quest is buggy - I could not attack him when he was standing at the top of the stairs. I read to move down to the other set of stairs and let Kaliyo pull him and then bring her back to you so he moves - so that worked.

 

You need to make sure to interupt anything and everything that you can....use the ability that throws the green gas on the floor (can't remember the name of it), use your personal shield ability, use evasion, and when you're low on ammo or everything is on CD, kite him around.

 

You end up having to fight him 3 times, but the first time is the most difficult.

 

For me the key things were to get him off the stairs so I could actually attack him and to keep him interupted. Like someone else posted here - use all your abilities.

This stupid quest is still not fixed. I get an "invalid destination error" when I try to fly to Artus to help my friend because of the hard time she's having.
