Most the bounty hunters in this day are only bounty hunters for the good loot and not for the fight and challenge. I would like to keep them in but have better chance of the good loot if you do kill them. I play for the challenge not the loot and having a chance of getting a missions that is way overpowered is fun.Everyone just want to give up when they are killed and cry nerf the missions. I enjoytrying to find a way to beat them.A lot of today's bounty hunters don't think its rewarding enough to warrant using all there foods, best armor, best weapon, health crystal, droid/ pet, BOMB droids andIf we are meant to be able to group with Squad leaders use them the squad leader buffs to kill them. Even though they don't mind selling there loot for millions when they get it for killing something they can AFK macro kill.


Atleast give a option on the terminals 1 forloot collector/sellerand another for bounty hunter. I don't even care if both options have the same chance for the good loot. I want high risk when i play others want no risk. So with an option we both can be happy.


With the new A.I. i can have as much fun taking NPC missions as i do when i hunt Player Jedi with 1 major difference. The NPC's don't sit in a house afk only to grief us wasting our play time.


Not all players think everything should be soloableand easy.

It seems alittle more dificult. But not as nad as they were saying. Course those crying were also the ones that said the others Pre 24 were too hard aswell. And I took them in less than a minute. But ehh I do forget we have Jedi alts in our profession. If its hard gotta nerf it.

Personally I havent had a rush like that since I started bounty hunter and got my first Boss mark. I threw everything at him last night includeing the kitchen sink.


Let me keep them...that was more fun than hunting a Jedi. Because after i killed him..(took fricken forever)...i didnt recieve any hate tells.


Oh and a tip to the MP/MBH/Cm4xxx get 2 ranged cybernetic arms and use a rifle. The root keeps him far enough away if he gets close KD/root and run out of range and kite him.

A Ranger is a more elite soldier who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by land, sea, or air. I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster and fight harder than any other soldier.

oh well i hope they're difficult but it seems like not by much the npcs prior pub24 were very easy for me even the double chev bosses. but if its not that much more difficult there are still jedi who hopefully this snare thing didnt hurt them to much i still like the challenge. i dontlike to go out and be like i can beat that, if i can go out and do that then its a waste of my time wheres the fun if you know the outcome before you start. well and if the jedi areeasier i can also goand trythe krayts muahahahahahaha.

One thing I would note is that there is a /huge/ difference between the 16 - 30k HAM <<Boss>> marks and those at 34k+. Although I do use a bit more kiting on the lower HAM ones, merely as practice for other situations, I wouldn't have to, and they are still quite easy, affording 1, maybe 2 minutes of fight.


The 34k+ HAM ones are quite impressive, and take me quite a while to beat. But I whole-heartedly agree with the premise of this post.

How about we put the NPCs back the way they were fools? You aren't helping.

id like a challenge for marks when i master bh but when im grinding investigation i dont want a challenge, it was hard enough finding them, now the hardest part is killing them while they use specials and wave that 12k health in ur face, my action bar bottemed out and the only time i had a break was when they knocked me down, and when i knocked them down they got up right away, no more point in having underhand shot anymore... and then half an hour later i finnally kill him and i loot one measly mandalorian inteframe :/

I definetly agree we should keep these boss marks the way they are. Before Publish 24,I can finish a boss mark with no armor, just BE clothing, a regular pistol (no pup, no slicing), no foods and no strategy or challenge, the healing was minimal. All I needed to do was spam critical shot and in 2 min the mark is dead.


Now i actually have to think, what to do next and how should I do it. I like a challenge, spaming critical shot and finishing the misson in less than 5 mins is not a challenge.


This is what the NPC missions should be, if you want make it harder please do. The more challenge the better


So what if the fights take longer, a fight with a Jedi will take just as long if not longer.


Devs, you did do the right thing. You have no reason to change it now.


For the others that complain that the NPC marks are too hard they should try another proffession, nothing comes easy.


If the nicer lootwill drop more often on the boss marks that would be nice, it is better then the damned jar of bugs.

Not trying to help you.Trying to help the ones who enjoy risky and challanging. You know there is no risk in Dancingyou might want to try that or even AFK DOC. They make good money with out even being at the computer.

When i mastered bounty hunter almost 2 years agoyou had to be bh 0444 just to kill the novice bounties. So in todays game that would be like being a master carbineer / 0444 bounty hunter.
