Bounty Hunter Archive

I have An idea i dunno if it will be heard but here it goes . My proposal is this progression for a weapon smith works well as we climb and build weapons at different levels takes time and effort to create the items. What I find is broken is the marksman as a basic class it's relatively easy to rise up the ranks of marksman levels as a result many people are jumping over several of the weapons easily jumping them as they think they don't need them just wait till they get the better guns inside a few days they have access to the best weapons the weapon smith by comparison is still barley able to create the dlt20a . My suggestion is this a marksman in life is somebody who knows a few weapons with good skill a rifleman is a master of rifles , why not move the gun progression to rifle man ,pistoleer etc. Just so that people make use of all the weapons available give people more reason to join the specialized weapon ranks , you can include the progression in other ranks like bounty hunter etc just to give them a slower progression like the weapon smiths slow progression .

I agree Necros......

The demand I have for laser weapons is crazy.

What I don't get is that to use an E11 rifle...u need Rifle IV....yet...a laser rifle...u need Rifle II.

The laser rifle is FAR superior to the E11. Although that may have something to do with the poor stats of the plumbum Iron in the E11.

I don't think I have ever sold a D18 Pistol since becoming weaponsmith.

My Firearms 1 weapons seem to sell ok on the bazaar tho, so I guess some people use them

You know all people do it bitch whine and cry about CHer's. Well I say if you hate me soooo much for being a CH then you surely don't need my help in a grp. Since the Holocron craze all these people who bad mouth CHer's seem to be wanting CH help I say screw'em If ya want to nerf me call me cheese and show me utter disrespect for the porfession I enojoy then me and my pets got other fish to fry so have a good life!

Btw I have Helped TONS on their Badge fights the way it should be CH help others in need to some tanks. Guess I have alot more free time

The Nerf CH crud is getting old the CH profession is getting boring more and more babies are going missing from the game. a TON less higher level pets are now gone. Pretty soon we all be fighting over durni nests for babies. Have yet to witness a pet Vit hit but it better not be way it sounds if so be hard to even find decent pets to use.

Well just thought put to words

Again If they hate us so much then why should we help them?

See what others have to say

There are non permanent solutions that can achieve the same goals as the permanent ones (killing characters permanently or forcing them to quit).

Now, I just had this idea, so it could be flawed, but it seems to me it could work with the right numbers, adaptation and implementation. Firstly everyone deserves what they work for, killing someones hard work permanently is not fun or good for anything. The problem that people have with Jedi is that they are more powerful than any regular profession combination. Due to the fact nearly everyone wants a Jedi and a large majority will get there through hard work and earning it, it does upset the balance of PvP. So with this in mind, I would make the following raw suggestion (needs developing further). What if:

Switching to Special Forces costs X amount of Jedi XP
If you don't have that XP, you cannot declare as Special Forces
Dieing as Special Forces carries an XP penalty

With these changes on top of the current system, I think it could go some way to lessening the sight of Jedi in PvP where they are unbalancing. Of course a balanced amount of XP lost in my idea needs to be found. But once the numbers are sorted I think it will serve its purpose. This way full template Jedi need to watch their XP and getting vis and killed by BH's faster than they earn XP will result in them not being able to PvP.

Sorry if this has been suggested before and was proven to be a totally rubbish idea. I thought it would be an amicable solution to the problems alot of people have with the game without going over the top.

As Bounty Hunters, how would you feel about this proposal?

so much for all those finished template jedi with -10mil

Well, of course the negative XP Jedi would need to be brought up to zero for a fresh start.

I definitely think it would impact the way jedi off set pvp atm.

Perma-overt would have to be taken out for knights tho.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to PvP, so I would also recommend something along the lines of;

Tougher XP penalties but XP doesn't go below zero

That way nobody can be completely denied from content through accident or otherwise.

Over all I like the basic idea. I'm sure there are ways to improve it but over all I like the idea of instead of limiting Jedi in game limiting their how many pvp.

Though I am still bothered by the continuety of the world being messed up when more than half the people in the game have Jedi toons. As I read somewhere this game may end up becoming Jedi Wars instead of Star Wars.

While continuity can be an issue to some people, I think that the biggest issue is that as many people can have fun as possible. Compromises need to be made by everyone and I'm sure the vast majority of people would be happy to let continuity take a back seat to all around fun. At the end of the day we're all logging in for a bit of fun, if we can't get that then why the hell are we playing

We all know that SoE has handled the way in which players obtain Jedi poorly. The answer to this is not to punish the players because it wasn't their fault. We need to find solutions and balance without denying groups of players certain avenues of game content and without placing too strict restraints on them either. The past is the past and nothing is going to change that, we need to look to the future and making the game as fun for everyone involved as possible.

If the new changes are coming out on TC, I feel it would be best if we would be able to try and get a guild sorted to systematically test what WS is becoming, munitions master or what not. This would be in order to test all facets of the new change, new experimentation and what not.

Am I going mad or is this a decent plan.

We could all just go mad and play another game or do something IRL...

Im in on that

Im not too sure how much time I can give to it tho

I want to see if its worth keeping my WS account, Im hoping something amazing is around the corner
