Bounty Hunter Archive

I have master combat medic. All doctor except wound speed 4 and 2 crafting boxes. out of skill pts. Game has lost some of its appeal. everybody wants me in group but the challenge is gone.

I mean is there a end game? I dont know much about anything other than PvE. Lots of people must be in my shoes or getting close. I love hunting with my friends but there is no challenge left for me. No way to progress. Money is not something i crave for.

Fun. Thats whats left. Have fun with your friends. Put your skills to use.

For years now the developers have given the cryptic answer “To Live in the Star Wars Universe”. Many people get this and have wanted to do just that for well over 20 years. However “Living” in the universe is too vague for some gamers (heck, most people don’t quite understand what the “point” of living in the real world is – I’ll give you a hint “to be good to one another”).

So for the goal minded folks out there, here is the “Point” of playing SWG:

1) Learn the basics of the game for a while so you don’t appear to be a newbie.
2) Accomplish all the different types of missions, from the quick and straight forward Mission Terminals to the multi-legged and more varied NPC static quests. You may need to travel beyond your starting city to find the more involved ones.
3) Gain enough money to buy (or gain enough skill to make) a good weapon and other equipment that suits your character.
4) Finish a themepark such as getting all the way to Jabba’s Throne Room. Beat at least 1 “dungeon” on every planet.
5) By doing factional missions or joining battlefields, gain enough faction points to rise up through the ranks in the Empire or Rebellion. Make enough points to try out all of the perks.
6) Join a Player Association that fits your play-style. Help others members to accomplish their unique goals and they will help you with yours.
7) Keep tabs on your Badges. You want to get over 100 of these to consider yourself a success in SWG.
8) Spend all of your skill points to master several professions. (Be sure you surrender some skills and learn new ones to find the character combination best for you)
9) Search the galaxy to find the spot you want to call home and build a house there so you can leave your mark on that galaxy. (Be sure to furnish it as an empty house doesn’t count)
10) When you are done with all that, work on figuring out how to unlock the Force Sensitive slot. If you can do that (and very few of you will and it will take several months, at least), then repeat the process with your new Jedi character until you are able to get the Jedi Master title.

When you have accomplished these 10 not-so-easy steps, you can say you have “won” the game”. There you have it. But please note, this list is subject to change as we add new content such as player cities, player vehicles, more quests, and full expansions.

Now, of course, feel free to substitute any of the above with other activities you enjoy in the game, such as becoming a famous entertainer, well-sought after crafter, always in demand doctor or highly feared bounty hunter. Or just have fun exploring, fishing, dueling, getting married, attending parties, meeting new people, helping people stuck in step one or even hosting your own events for each other. Definitely try to Role Play (it isn’t hard, you don’t have to act goofy, just don’t bring real world conversation into the spatial chat).

maybe if you do 1-9 that is how you unlock FS?

Ok so my current skills are BH 0/2/4/4 CH 1/1/0/0 Pistoller 0/0/0/3 and Medic 1/0/0/0.

So I want more medic but I dont really drop anything, but what is the least useful at this point? Since I got medic I can heal my pet more efficently so that makes things easier. So I'm thinking about getting rid of my pistoller skills though I like the speed bonus the 15+ to aiming while standing and of course pistolwhip. Wha do you guys think?

Also I need some help lvling carbine I don't know what to do really I've been using a EE3 on seething bols in groups to get like 1-2ka kill any tips?

Thanks in advanced.

that pistoleer speed bonus ain't doing anything for ya if you've maxed BH pistol. Same with the accuracy pretty much.

Oh... well good by stances 2 and 3 then.

I've been a Master Ranger for about 2 weeks now. Hunting has become less interesting, and simply put, I don't know what to do anymore.

All I do now is administrative work for our PA, and an occasional hunt...

Anyone have any suggestions as to what I should do? (Yes, I am looking for holocrons)

Surely you have a secondary profession to play with.

You could always do what I do and find a couple fresh Noob Scout/Ranger-wannabes and take them under your wing to mentor. The game will be better for it...the Profession will be better for it...and they learn to look out for other Rangers to by starting off with the right mindset and attitude. Nothing is better than having sommeone like a big brother to help you learn the do's and dont's of an online game.

Just a thought....but things like that are contagious if you know what I mean.

You know I just hit Master Ranger 2 weeks ago myself. I am in a guild as well i use my skills to trak down and investigate imp guilds. I send reports to our Commander in my guild, I also train scout and aspiring Rangers on the do's and don'ts of being a Ranger. When we attack the imps I am the first person there always sending updates to the forces enroute. i.e. People near the imp guild at the time and other things like that. By the time the forces get there they know exactly what they r facing im invaluable to my guild> Bro all i can say is embrace being a Ranger use your skills to the best of your ability we are more than just nature lovers you know. Think Army Ranger I do!!!! Hopefully the Devs will eventually make our class more combat oriented till then use the skillz you got......
