I stand a bit behind and to the side of Gorc's swordarm, and whack at
his back. He can't block the shot and goes down pretty quickly.

Pic, on the other hand, is a badass. I haven't figured out how to
beat the munchkin yet -- and it's made even worse when he cloaks.

Besides using the cheats<g>, try to back Pic into a corner after you've got a
few licks in on him (it?). It took me about a billion tries, but I did
finally kill them.

Now, just wait until Jerec, and Boc. Sheesh! Boc just bounces around and
generally makes himself imposible to hit, especially with him using two
sabers, and Jerec keeps pulling your weapon out of your hand, and
replenishing himself in the force "ball", until he's beaten you.

Boc was the biggest pansy out of the Seven Dark Jedi. I'm not saying
he's easy, but look at his fighting style! Hopping around like a
rabbit on speed, and uses two lightsabers insteadof one, and cackling
around like a madman. Stupid Twi'Lek didn't stay still for me to hack
him...

Really, from the FMV to the pansy/unhonorable combat style, I just
really didn't like Boc...

Hey! I didn't say I liked him, in fact, I agree, he is probably the most
annoying of all the Dark Jedi. That hopping stuff just drove me crazy until
I decided to stand still and let the moron come to me.

I thought all the Dark Jedi were easy except for Pic and Jerec. Sariss was
a little too easy. I beat Boc by turning invisible then hitting him from
behind.

The big guy is pretty slow and stupid, just keep whacking at his back and he
goes down quickly. For the little guy use Jedi Seeing (or whatever they
call it) and his invisibility doesn't work. I never needed more than 1
bacta tank to finish him off.

Too true, for me picking the appropriate territory for each was key: I
tackled Gorc down on the open plain using speed & focused on his back
side. All that space lets you run around and evade him and avoid that
damn Grip he likes so much.

For Pic I retreated up to the little confined room with the Bacta
reups. By restricting where he "can" be when he's invisible, it made
it easier to nail the little sucker (I figure my light saber swing
covered at least 40-50% of the floor space up there, cut down the odds
of missing him substantially). Finally managed to beat them both on
the 3rd try.
