Im not much of a blaster but I find when I do play my blasters, the best bet is to have some range on your shots. If you mess up at short range the mob will target you and its open season on the blaster. You have to be part of a team that is privy to what pulling is all about. One clown in the group will ruin the session for the team. A technique I use regardless, that seems to work well, is positioning yourself at an even proximity of the mob so you can see the closest foe. Target the closest foe. Toggle to the first minion. Do not pull LT.s or bosses who are usually in the middle anyway. At a distance, that is out of range press your shot so its ready to fire. Hit follow so that you run to the target and time it as you withdraw. It will look like you are going back and forth , back and forth ever closer. It takes practice but if you hit it right you should be retreating right at the moment you come into range and your shot goes off. The foe gets the bullet and you retreat out of his range as he tries to go after you. His buddies will sit there not even batting an eye that their friend marched off to a waiting ambush. Sometimes if you whittle the mob down enough your team can overwhelm 3 or 4 leftovers. You do not have to pull every single foe.
