If you are hunting el cheapo missions just for thrills, at the very least do it solo. There is no reason a bounty hunter needs help for missions under 150k.
Unfinished template paddies have a very hard time right now getting ANY xp and staying off the terminals.
In a week or two, a balance pass will probably change things a bit in their favor, and all bets are off.
Does the big game hunter kill every elephant in the jungle? No, he only kills a few and lets the babies grow up so their worth fighting.

That actually makes me want to hunt Jedi since I do not want Jedi in the game:smiliewicked:
Other than that, I will not hunt the jedi........

So when its balanced in the favor of the Jedi then its all fair? But now that its balanced towards the BH its not fair.....hmm i think not. If they manage to get thereselves on the terms then they are fair game. I do agree that mission under 150k shouldnt need more than 1 BH. Tho sometime it just so happens that more than 1 BH show up on a mark at the same time.

well they shouldn't be logging in until it is fixed. there are 150k and underJedi out there pwning ass as well. I am in a BH only guild and I think (not speaking for the others) I will only hunt the big game in groups until the paddies can grind again. was in my home town today and 6 paddies I know are dueling and showing off. I dueled one and he could handle me fine until another BH came along and opened fire. my friend was 50% force left and still killed the other BH after a good 10 minute fight. they aren't completely helpless but if they need fixing then why log in?

Don't listen to this BS....Paddies want to level, and that's all. 150K can give me a good run for the money. I will go after whomever, whenever, however....as it was the player that got on the terms who made it possible.

I would agree with this, but I happen to have a Padawan that I saw on the terminals today for a 226k payout. He only has 0-1-0-1 in Jedi skills, yet he's got the same price on his head as a full template, double master Jedi. I can't say I agree with the price on my head, whoever comes for me is going to get an awful lot of money for a short, easy fight.

I was honestly willing to think about it until this post.
I've been keeping my hunts to around the 200k range to try and practice and learn the new system, but if crushing a padawan gets under the skin of asses like this, then all bets are off.

I'm not talking about the relative balance between BH&J . . . I'm talking about the Upnerf being very, very hard on unfinished templates finishing and/or getting out of an xp hole. I don't care about Knights, I wouldn't care about fight-clubbers if the FRS was online.
daz007 said: well they shouldn't be logging in until it is fixed.
That's a valid point, but they're just as curious about the Upnerf as you are and want to test their skills. All I'm saying is to give the unfinished templates a week or two for everything to settle down after a few balance passes. Will a few days of NOT ganking paddies really hurt you?

This is also a valid point. Paddies want to level. But if they can't level this week or next week at all, and/or they lose a zillion xp, THEY WILL QUIT THE GAME JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE and our game will die because there aren't enough subscribers. It's bait and switch, Tucheck --- let them get fixed, let them think they're going to be OK, then when they ARE balanced a little bit more, THEN you can gank all the paddies you want. I'm not going to mix threads and make this personal here --- I just refer anyone who is curious to Tucheck's "Force Infusion" thread for Tucheck's story.

No, I don't think you would. You're not going to get rid of the Knights (eBay, anyone?), you're just going to "grief" the paddies. If they're afk-grinding in the Warren, fine, jeez, kill 'em if they're that stupid, but the jedi haven't been completely balanced yet, so your "victories" are hollow anyway.

Ooof. That would suck to be you. I would come after you if you were 226k. I was unaware that that was possible. Yikes.

Well, at least you didn't get the mission together and go kill a paddie.

Ok, if there's some assclown who's being obnoxious, fine, go kill him. But please remember that there ARE care-bear players who just want to swing a 'saber around and be able to defend themselves who DON'T grief people or threaten them.
All I am trying to accomplish with this suggestion is to keep SW:G alive. If the next week or two gives paddies a reason to quit, as well as the crafters and entertainers and doctors, then in about six weeks, not only will there be no jedi....there'll be no servers...
Please think about that before you grief every n00b on the terms . . . only for the next week or two, though . . . if the devs can't get it balanced before Sith comes out, all bets are off

?
Is there an element of the "Upnerf" that somehow magically gives visibility to Jedi so they end up on the terminals even if they don't do anything to cause it?
