Thread: Pub 20 Get Marks name from Seeker Droid Petition

Following hot on the heels of the 0 xp on Kash petition, I think this is the other major issue from Pub 20. If your mark is in a busy city, finding him without knowing his name is going to be a real pain. Surely the seeker droid can report the marks name without opening up any griefing issues?

Although I am a Jedi, and I do not agree with petitions, fat lot of good they do anyway, I have always said this should be the case. I mean by the time you have launched the seeker on the planet, you are usually well away from the spynet operatives. Cancelling at this point would be a real waste of time, just a little less that actually getting to the mark.


The only thing I would suggest is that the name be given on the 3rd or 4th update from the droid. Kinda gives the feeling that the droid was stalking the mark for a while to get these details...

Forgot to mention that if seekers still don't work on Kashyyk, Jedi would still grind there, as you are never going to know who they are.

I think it would bemore appropriateif you got it froman arakyd droid. You woudln't beleive how many times I have shuttled into LOK or another starport to have the mission waypoint 20 meters from where I'm standing. Also, after you launch an Arakyd, and it returns back the fact that they are on Kashyyyk, would you really launch a seekir once you got to Kashyyyk knowing that it isn't going to work...


I can see launching it just to get the name of the target, but it doesn't make any logical sense... *shrug*

All problems with kashyyk disappear if they make it a NO XP, NO HUNTING planet. Leave it there purely for quests and loot. Sure, some jedi would be there, but no longer the majority. Anybody wanting xp would be elsewhere, and seekers would work.

The arakyd should give us the name.

Personally I don't care if it is the arakyd or the seeker, so long as we get the name somewhere along the way to avoid the whole 'tab...tab...tab...' business, which is pretty stupid.


Please SOE, please let one of the droids give us the marks name? It won't allow griefing/grouping so the objective of the nameless bouties will still be achieved, but the BH knowledge of their mark can still be used.

"When Sony and Lucas set out, we said, 'How can we do this and not make another EQ?' We didn't want it to be all about Luke, or combat, or lock our players into a class. So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change. If you want to go from architect to scout we've created a system to make that happen." - Julio Torres
