Alright guys im new to this game, im level 16, have almost got all boxes filled except two for brawler and marksman, have all 4 exploration boxes filled in scout and have experience as a surveyor and mediocre experience as a medic.


I was going to be a commando before, but based on how people don't seem to like them I've decided to join the crowd. I was either thinking about becoming a commando, bounty hunter, or teras kasi artists, all of which i am capable of.......as soon as i get enough combat experience points... i was wondering if you guys would help me out in determining the benefits of each of the three and if the bounty hunter be good for me.


I want a high paying job most importantly or one that will involve good pay with moderate work load


Please leave your input, i would greatly appreciate it!

BH is more of a playstle/lifestyle than a regular profession me thinjs..so if your wanting to do it for the sake of thehunt then by all means. go for it..but you wont get rich..not even on Jedi bounties

Hopefully that will change. The Devs are so utterly naive if they think players won't figure out the easiest way to haul in massive amounts of loot in the most efficient method possible.


Novice level loot farming will be the death of the MBH's generous loot drops. The markets are being flooded with so manyhigh-end attachments (at least on Ahazi), the generalpublicis wondering wth they're all coming from.


Won't be long before every toon with a ranged weapon in his hands spends 35 skill points to become a novice lvl BH and start bringing in the loot.

I don't so much have a problem with the ppl whoacutally spend time to become -real- BHs (mbhs)....it's the ppl who just pick up novice so they can run 10 missions an hour out of Bestine or Corellia and get the ph4t lewt.


Off planet missions are time intensive and until the Devs realize that players will never aspire to MBH if they can getthe same types of loot from running the -easy- missions thenI fearthe nerf cries will get louder until they're silenced. Hurting thepplwho this new system was designed for.

well, what I really was trying to say was that you shouldnt become a Bh unless its for the hunt...not the loot, no matter how much money you can make...i've made my fair share since the BH update...

but hopefully soon MBH will be more exclusive to this particular content and the loot maddness will slow a bit. few people will grind through to master just for loot...

I did MBH cause I always loved it..master four times on different servers since launch. never respeced once. do it for the love of the hunt...all i'm sayin'

Yeah, getting loot is always cool...but off planet missions is one of the greatest ways to see some very cool unknown locales.

I do it because it's a guaranteed way to get some quality PvP without getting load-ganked


Did a bunch of NPC missiosn to see what all teh fuss was about, got some pretty decent stuff, but my looting luck seemed to fizzle out so im still mainl hunting player jedi.


BH is a quite fun and versatile profession, so if there werent 3478950357 other hunters out there then I'd recommend it as an occupation

Who cares what people like!Almost everyJedi hate Bounty Hunters, so maybe you should go Chef then.


More seriously, go Commando, if that's what you wanted.
