Just a general warning, he mentioned something about a heroic area. Maybe he just wandered in to one by accident? I played a Shadow through Hoth some time ago and don't recall any trouble, but it's been too long for me to remember the mission specifically.

I haven't done the consular storyline in a while - but isn't Valon basically the whole reason you're on Hoth to begin with? Him and his invincible/legendary armor? Don't they mention his supposed "invincibility" over and over?

OP, if this is indeed the guy Andryah referred to, and the one I'm thinking of, then you just have to keep hammering at him. He has a reputation of being unkillable, and there's a reason for that. If I remember the fight correctly, there aren't any particularly weird mechanics - you simply have to "kill" him multiple times. If you're truly doing zero damage (and it isn't that he's healing up after taking a lot damage), then as everyone else has said - level up a bit or grab a buddy.

If he's level 37 and the mob is 39 it's entirely doable. The problem sounds like the whole invulnerability thing. I've leveled multiple toons spending the whole time 4 levels behind as I mainly just pvp.

OP, try looking at the bosses' buffs and read the text there it might give a hint.

IIRC, that boss has three or four charges on his armor that heals him for a ridiculous amount. Run out those charges and you should be able to win.
It's "elder game", guys. The day this game gets an actual "endgame" is when BW pulls the plug on the servers. MMORPGs don't have an "end".

Can someone please shed some light on to this,its doing my head in!!
Cant you see the enemies are way higher lvl then you ?, and fix your armor after dying.You should be lvl 40 atleast
when doing last part of Hoth.Basic logic, what lvl is the enemy you are fighting and what lvl are you.

It's doable at that level, but you need the best equipment you can get, which generally means crafting via multiple alts.

Artifice craft purple crystals and hilts
Cybercraft craft purple armour inserts for your armour.
Biotech craft the best implants for your character and his companion.

Please note Purple refers to the rarity of the items not actual colour so your lightsaber crystal can still be a colour you can live with.
You will also want to outfit your companion in the best equipment you can get for him/her.

Finally the secret of defeating Consular bosses is mastering your interupts (Force push, stasis, even lift if used right), use these when he's about to use a massively dangerous move, and it should give you breathing space.
Peace can be found, above all passions. Through passion, I may gain strength.
Through strength, I may gain power. Through power, I may gain victory.
But for every enemy fallen, a new foe rises.
For every chain broken, new chains bind me. Only the Force can set me free.

2 words ... gear up

If you think about your stats and stay in at least blue gear you can easily run the game from anything up to 4 levels below recommended, tho I'd suggest keeping it to 3 as 4 levels under can be challenging.

Alternatively just over level by doing bonus quests, flashpoints ect, but to me is much more fun to be underlevelled.

If your struggling, its all about your gear.
