Well, since the new publish where rebel faction was displayed and payouts were decreased, Ive noticed an increasing amount of BHs not hunting Jedi anymore... Seems to me like lots of BHs were in for just the money and not to actually rid the galaxy of Jedi. Thats my two cents on the situation...

to much greif at times for some people they know they are hunting a rebel and then the jedi cry about same faction hunting then the guild's get involved and for some its just not worth that 225k + bonus as for me. Roflmao if any jedi think they are safe because of their faction

I was there for money and for the PvP. Before publish 20 I knew who to attack and where, I could plan my attack so that I would always have an edge over my prey. With no/no publish I don't know who am I hunting, I don't know payout and I have no idea where is he/she. So yes, less fun in hunting them

I still actively hunt Imperial Jedi. My problem right now is the fact that all of my droids are borked and I can't get the name from the seeker droid using the seek function. But, I still hunt and I have been taking down full temp Jedi. I'm not as experienced as the most of the guys in Nexus, but I still get my marks. Here recently, I win more than I lose.

so expect the worse? expect a Full templater and if you know how to use your foods right you know not to use ALL your best stuff at 1st. i for one only use some health/action foodsif i find out im attacking a full templater i might through in some healing food then maybe some steak to down my damage in a certin bad persistion. the only differnce now is unless they are on kash you have to send an extra seeker out to get a name and then you dont know how big and bad they are.


and theres nothing more fun than going after a padawan only to find them being a Pre curb Knight. gives you a sudden jolt and keeps you on your toes. though i guess not everyones "cut out" for the new system of Bh'ing, though i dont see much differnce


Ps in regards to the Seeker problem, just throw your cursor over the group and hope you see an attack sybol then use Tab

When you complete your mission you get the same payout as would have in the old system... I.e fulltemplates yield you 226k...


And is it so bad to be in it for the money? I admit I do like the tells over the money though if that helps...

Probably true, most likely due to the BH not knowing who his mark is and probably doesn't want to fight a full template, I attacked every Jedi I caught from all the missions I've done regardless of their template- however publish 21 comes, I'll be taking a break from Jedi hunting and do those MBH "boss" missions and who knows, it might be more fun than hunting Jedi.

I have seen some known BHs in the past few days with different templates now, so there may be a definate decrease in BH population indeed.

Starting the sentence with capital letter helps. And I really don't see what are you trying to say. Provoking sentences and "learn to hunt first" type comments have no effect on me sir. Peace be with you.

Note to be contrite or anything, but it was not supposed to be about "ridding the galaxy of Jedi".... ever. It is not your place to try to force anyone else out of this game just becaue they paly a certain profession. Maybe make life a little harder on them but, not about "ridding the galaxy of them."

It was all about you having your content, and yes, it was meant to be about the credits...nothing more. If you still believe you are meant as "population control" then I'm sorry, you're living with your head in the clouds.

Though my thread may seemed to be a slight rant with a "learn to hunt first" twist it actually isnt. i trust you to remember the days of G-tef. its as good as that, you take a mission expecting it to be a padawan and it turns out to be a padawan with a Knight the padawan Fd's and lets the Knight do his dirty work so all of a sudden your simple padawan mission has turned into a knight mission. by expecting the worse when that padawan FD's youll be ready for that knight.


i know it doesnt have the exact same contex seeing that back in G-tef you could bring an army with you as well but least back then we all knew to expect the worse and anything better was a reward.

I never really seen it as population control... more like population deceleration. It is not hard for a padawan to become a full-template Jedi. The grind is "hard", it's "long and boring". Most Jedi confuse the two. With the power that Jedi get at full-template, the process should be long and hard. The only thing that actually makes it hard for some is the BH. As soon as the visibility changes hit, this will go away and the only thing that BH will be hunting is full-temp Jedi. This will give all Padawan's a free ride to the top, unless they do something really stupid.

The Money is one thing. But The Money for what you have togo through isnt worth it. And the Yime. 3 days ehh I tracked my Marks for a few days learn them wait for the Rite time. but now ehh. NPC with Unber loots and My Bh armor that can be made to what ever color I want. works for me.

Hey SOE wants nothing but Jedi in this game. I mean figure it. If I got a jedi with the FREE ALT. Heck id drop my 2nd acct. Why pay for 3 when I can have 2. for the price of one. Let them Crowd the servers and Be uber. Then when they Have the End game and no content they will wonder why. We can refer them to Pub 20 and 21 :-)

This sort of thing with publish 21 will cause Jedi that are knights and finished temps to not have many BH visit them, they've been waiting for that day for 3 months and many I talk with are bored out of their mind with this game- the paddies will probably rarely get a visit and think "cool a free ride", but when they're finished, they'll be in the ame boat as the current finished Jedi are in.

PVP and waiting for the FRS are the only thing Jedi has left to do right now, the loot is ridiculous and lacking.
