I realize this is a lame question but i just got novice bounty hunter and i have no idea how to find the people i gotta hunt down for my BH missions, since i dont have investigation 1, it seems as if i cant use droids yet because investigation 1 says it gives "Droid Find" but not novice BH. So im actually just curious as to how i get Bounty Hunter experiance since it'll be extremely hard to find the bounty without a droid helping.


if anybody can give a few pointers out about being a novice bounty hunter, i'd appreciate it.

Thanks

you have to find an NPC in town that knows where he is(talk to him he'll upload WP to your datapad) once you find one make note, because he can be used for all of your lvl1 BH missions...

Actually i have another question now, because i found the informant and got the location of the bounty. But now the problem is that i get to the location, see the mark but he's red to me! i really dont understand why i can accept a mission so tough, i figured maybe they would give missions closer to my current skill.


Anybody else have this problem?

Marks will always be red and even if you take the mission unarmed, will have roughly a 10k HAM.

I am an equal opportunity bounty hunter, I do not discriminate, if the price is right I will kill my bounty.

Ok, I just got my novice a couple of nights ago, and decided on my path to MBH I was gonna head up the Investigation tree first. So while I'm doing the missions (currently working out of Tyrena)I notice that for my marks, im getting about 140-170 BH xp...Mind you I haven't trained investigation 1 yet, so I took a look at the boards here for the post on "Guide to the Investigation tree" and it says I should be getting about 60-70xp per mark. So my question is, should I train ivestigation 1, and most likely get more xp per mission...


Heres what I'm using when I look for my missions


My LLC Equiped (Got it from the bazaar for 3k)


1.Greater Sludge PantherLvl, 23 / Cowardly Gurreck lvl 15


2. Toxic Merek Battlelord lvl 24


For my tree stats, its Novice BH, and CH 3-3-0-3


Any Ideas?

It used to be 1% of the payout so for your 6-7k missions it was 60-70, but they increased it.


With thoose pets you should have a fairly easy go at it.


If you train invest1 you have to use droids (adds to the cost) and the marks move, so takes longer, most people cap the exp at 10k and train 1 and 2.


After you do that, you get the marks off planet that move, and the real frusstration begins.

To save yourself some time and hassle, you should stay at level 0 (novice BH) bounty missions until you CAP Invest xp at 10k. After that, you can train past Invest level 2 and be 4k xp into level 3.


Novice BH missions are only located on Corellia.


Level 1 and up is off planet and requires you to use droids and the painful shuttle waits. Save yourself the agony.


The post that said 60-70xp is the pre-patch xp. That has changed so you will go up faster in the Invest line.


If you want to be effective against your bounties, you may want to get some or all of the pistol/carbine/LLC styles. They help in controlling your mark. Then again, you are using pets so you may be ok.

Oh yes haveing carbine one defiently helps, if the underhands stick, but with the two pets tanking you can sit back and fire at your leisure, so no real need to knock them down, atleast untillyou have to surender some CH skills to advance in Bh.

I became a novice BH last night and went on only two BH missions so far but have been having fun with all LLC and Scatter pistol. I also enjoy the BH missions they are fun and pretty good on the wallet since I can do most solo with only a helmet and boots for armor. But I was wondering if there are missions to go against jedi that aren't player jedi? If there is what stages of BH should I have, should full composite armor be worn or is there a way I can get by with lower armor, and if I have pets with me that are level 25 or higher is that good enough to defeat one? Thanks in advance for answering my questions and if there is any advice I can get for starting out I would very much appreciate it.

I am now ready to do some more boring Grinding to master a profession that I will hopefully keep. But the investigation part I dont understand. I have bought Seeker droids which I dont know if its correct or not to complete the missions. But I cant use them. I am currently at 0-0-2-0. But it says I dont understand how to use them when I try to click on them or drag them into the data pad on the mission. So how exactly do you use them. I dont know if I have the wrong droids or if I cant do it yet cause im not skilled enough or what. And while im at it, is there a certain place that anybody knows of to get the XP a little quicker then 119 xp per mission? Or any tricks you can teach me as well. IM on the Sun Runner Server with the name as Fuzzy-Wuzzy. Contact me here or on there if you have any helpful tips on how I can learn the proper way of doing the Investigation Part of the BH Tree.


Thanks and Cant wait to be among the other Master BH out there.

Check out the sticky FAQs.


At invest 0 you don't use droids just get the WP from the spynet. You get higher missions based on your invest level and your xp with the weapon you are holding.
