New Jedi. Need HelpFollow

I just respeced from Smuggler to Jedi once I hit lvl 90. I reached 90 in less than 3 months thanks to my guild leader who is a pre-NGE player, but since he has never had a Jedi toon, and I am still fairly new to the game I am pretty much in the dark about how to become a strong Jedi. I am thinking I made a mistake by not just creating an entirely new toon. I have created a 4th gen 1 handed LS, and have "Robes of the Storm Caller", but am unsure of how to proceed from this point. I am on the Valcyn server, which is sparsly populated and help is hard to come by. I have heard rumors of two LS that are looted off 90+ elites(Old Republic LS and Jinsu Razor), but would be impossible for me and a guild member to complete on our own. What is the best aproach to take in order to become stronger? Are there quests I can do to get better Cloaks? Is it still possible to get the Elder Jedi Robes post-NGE? I allocated my path points to be a light Jedi since I am Rebel, what is a good general setup? I know this is a lot of questions, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I am feeling over whelmed. Thanks in advance.

hello. I am from valcyn also.

currently lightside jedi are more powerful than darkside but that is going to change it might already be on test center but darkside is gonna be brought up to par.

right now lightside jedi stack up on defense like block powerups, parry, or glancing blow increase. this makes them real tuff to beat.

i know jedi who don't buff up a whole lot but are still hard to beat. these ones use cloak effectively which pisses alot of ppl off but i don't care. the whole goal is not to die anyway, at least from a spy point of view.

they use cloak in combination with saber block and force run, they know when to time things and that just comes from experience. the best way to learn how to pvp is go out there and get your *** beat and after a while you get better and start kicking ***.

if your lucky you could be in a guild that duels alot thats a good way to learn to but IMO the best way is just go pvp and don't worry about dying at first- you have to learn somehow.

most on valcyn are pretty cool like they'll give you a /bow when you loose. we just like to see any rebel with balls to go on the battlefield because currently on valcyn it is imp dominated. If I kill you with my spy and you don't hate tell me I usually let you be after 1 kill unless its a group PvP forming. Or I will reveal myself on your radar and if you come at me we fight again. Stealth ganks just get old sometimes.

we definately need more SF rebs tho and our server would be fun again. hate to see you leave smuggler. You may have been lied to and told smuggler was not good for PvP, which they can be very good but is a difficult prof to get down, and our smugglers seem inactive right now. We had some way killer ones tho in PvP. Your either really good at smuggler or really bad- theres not much in between.

Thank you Jarok for your descriptive reply! It helped me a lot also.
