I usually use power attack with master speed. One of the best combinations.

 

Regular attack with master speed is an excellent combination.

Ok, least used feat for me would be Power Attack. Don't really know why, might be due to -3 penalty to hit rate. Besides, its knockback effect only occurs when damage is tripled.

Critical strike is good since you may be able to stun your opponent, thus leaving them helpless.

Master flurry is without a doubt the best. C'mon, a free attack? No penalty? That does 150% damage without using force speed, 125% with. Either way, it rocks.

 

And it's just cool seeing your PC do the spinny slash of death.

it depends

 

master force speed + 1 weapon = 3 attacks

 

master force speed + 2 weapon = 4 attacks

 

now with flurry you get rispectively 4 and 5 attacks or 4 and 5 times base damage.

 

master critical strike doesn't add any attack but it multiply by 4 the chance of crit (x2 damage), a normal sabre with a nextor crystal (or some components that add crit) have a base chance of 17-20 so with master critical you get around 80% to score a crit.

 

so with 3 attacks you should get 2 criticals for a total of 5 base damage and with 4 attacks 3 criticals for a total of 7 base damage.

 

on top of that the opponent have to roll to resist to stun for each crit.

 

sure, it still have drawbacks on to hit and def, and you have to put some +crit components, but with master speed (and a decent str) is quite deadly.

Flurry works even with unarmed attacks with against Handmaidens when fighting in Hidden Academy on Telos and even with Mandalorian duels. Tried Power Attack with unarmed fights, but most attacks were misses.
