You guys do realize that basically any non template jedi are going to run like hell now. I mean they used to run and stuff but they are going to run like hell now.


This xp nerf was so stupid. And its so obvious whythey do it too. So now it'll take all the people who bought the game becuase of the commercials and episode 3 even longer to finish their template and realize theirs not much to do except bugged quests on kash (an expansion I bought for 30$that doesnt even work)or pvp in a completly jedi dominated game wherewhoever wins is the side with the most people. Of course they couldn't take this time to look at something like battlefields so pvpers will actually have some content.GO GO SOE SCREW US MORE PLEASE WE LIKE IT.

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.

It only screws the new players, who will blindly play for 3 months and then quit after they realize they were given the chaft and everyone before them was able to template out a lot easier before.


What really flames my butt about this is alot of people(90% of all full templated toons) support this. Not because they really think this will fix anything because they were able to template out in 1 week and now do not want any noobs challanging their position(See they are afraid of losing their power)


I think I am the only Full templated toon that things this is very very bad ju ju. But i'm already hitting the end road of this game so I'm not sure how much longer I may stick around. I've done all the interestign stuff. The Themepark,s my Template, Did the BH Hunt thing for a while. I recently unlocked FS and visited the village. There is not much more content any more. Grindng out the Village to do what? PvP in a non existant war?

Counter Strike offers more content.


I have maybe a week or 2 to finish master Imperail Pilot maybe things will be more intresting after that. Mabye I wil get bored again and then quit again(Wow, Joined IN April of 04 left in September of 04, rejoined April 05, lets see if history repeats is self)

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.

When the FRS is back in play, you will see more jedi welcome us with open arms. Practice your skills on elite marks or vs. your jedi friends. You need to learn how to take out a full template. That's where the fun will be.

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!!!!






All who gain power, are afraid to lose it!

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!

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.
