it also limits everyones ability to change templates.
Well most of the Full templated toon's don't care about chaning tempates now. They have what they want and will stick with it.
People really need to get over the jedi thing already and look at the bigger picture.
Yes this change will hit bh's and jedi hard. But think of all the poor docs, cm's and squad leaders who now can't get into any group to earn any xp from their skills simply because this nerf has put everyone off grouping completely.
If you do manage to find someone to group for xp, who do you think they'll want... another high level combat profession to speed up the kills or a doc to buff and heal them occasionally? Get a bunch of food and stims and those 3 professions listed above are effectively dead.
Apparently this change was pushed to live (after being pulled from publish 21) to slow down jedi levelling. Instead of them fixing stuff like afk grinding on kashyyk a month ago they hit everyone with the nerf bat. But i guess now we all know why publish 22 went to live with less than 24 hours testing, and was so full of bugs it crashed most servers, and has completely screwed up Bria.... so they could get this ridiculous xp change to live before we could mount any sort of protest.
Hopefully they'll revoke the change before its too late, people are already quitting in droves... i will wait until i can test combat with a droid before i decide whether to keep my 3 accounts or not ![]()

Totally. Xp is too valuable now. I'll never stay and fight. It was never worth it to fight a BH before Pub. 22, now it's not even a question.
the best way to defeat a full template jedi, is to catch them napping. With low force or under attack by mob that dont use auto DB.
Why i say auto DB, HELLO!!!! BHS!!!!!! dont attack a jedi that is under attack by a krayt, if the jedi is smart, they will let the krayt slain them, and then the jedi know that you are after him, but you (BH) wont get any credit, for that, you dont get cash, the jedi dont loss xp, and the score keeper doesnt change a point. The only good thing is that the mission continue, so you can keep pinpointing them, but now the jedi will get ready to fight you or they simple log out in the cloner.
So wait until the jedi finish the krayt and then slain him like a pig. Or wait until he fight several krayts, and then wait when he is resting, when he is sit or meditating, PAWN HIM!!!!
Ah stop being so pessimistic about the nerf. I love it as a Bounty Hunter. Now when I kill a mark it is going to be ten times harder for them to regrind the xp. This is a much sweeter kill to me. Jedi are going to run regardless; we may as well make the stakes higher and give them a reason to run. This is how xp used to be a long time ago when we didn't have endless numbers of jedi roaming the server. Hopefully they will stick with this. A lot of damage has been done already with the Kash grinding; I saw people go full template in two weeks there! No more of that crap! Woot Woot!

guys i think the xp nerf was to stop all the peeps from getting to jedi all the time all i see nowadays are peeps grinding their heads off to get jedi and im kinda sick of it .i admit when i was lvl 10 i wanted to be jedi too lol so thats why i think they had the xp nerf
It wasn't a true NERF they fixed a definite problem that THEY created. I still think that the xp FOUNTAIN was in response to all the negative feelings that the combat upgrade caused for the player base. This thing about this game being about the grind... and not content does stink but it isn't the end of the world. What is fun about being in a group shooting an animal / npc and then sitting down until the rest of the group has shot there one shot to get full xp (I know gross exaggeration). Now at least there will be a sense of accomplishment again.
