All of which could have been avoided if you knew his name. When visibility changes there wil be less Jedi on the terms and the chances of the example I just gave are going to skyrocket.
if some one is constantly afk in a structure...wait...they will come out...eventually....then get em
if your saying sitting in a house is wrong, then by allowing you to bypass them punishes those who don't do wrong.
truth is, nothing wrong with sitting in a house, and when you decided to play BH you knew kills against real players wouldn't be handed to you...there is the GCW and duels if you just want pvp...if you want to hurt people...you gotta put in the time

Don't let the Jedi know you're after him.I know it's tough

If they're close enough to /duel you, then you shouldalready have him or her targetted, and shouldknow what to do.
It's not a marks responsibility to make him or herself ready for you to attack them.
These extra steps will make me feel like I'm actually tracking and hunting someone down, instead of just being handed a name and location. I think it's a great change...

You can't stop people from going afk in a house. You have 2 options, guy.
Either:
Suck it up, and wait it out.
OR
Suck it up, and go hunt someone else.
That isn't even a problem with the no-name missions. That's you having a problem rolling up on AFK marks.
Jesus...
Why do I even bother...It was an example of a possible problem , "guy". How is that my problem ? FFS
You dont think it would be nice to be able to avoid that situation ? I guess not because you are just so elite things like this dont matter. I dont know whats worse...the shear amount of Jedi in the game at the moment or the idiots who defend these retarded new changes.
There is no way in hell that a bounty hunter would take a misson on a target he or she knew nothing about. Just the idea of that is totally outlandish. A known and wanted criminal would have the face and name plastered all over the damn place.

frist think to all the jedi trolls get of this thread second plz tanks tell the mods about jedi trolls
second Nyracasso
please use your grey matter and try to kill a knight now because most if not all of the jedi on the term with all the changes in pub 20 will be knights and we dont have all the trick to are disposal,
we will get killed every time or fail ,
so in that case what it the point in even trying

*You dont think it would be nice to be able to avoid that situation ? I guess not because you are just so elite things like this dont matter. I dont know whats worse...the shear amount of Jedi in the game at the moment or the idiots who defend these retarded new changes.

*Sure, that'd be nice to avoid, but knowing or not knowing your marks name isn't going to stop people from sitting in a house AFK. The droids will take you to the same spot, name or no name. If you're talking about maybe sending them a tell to see if they're afk, that's absolutely retarded.
**This isn't a reality issue. It's a balance issue. Directly targetting Jedi over and over was being abused.

I agree with you 100%
I solo hunt myself. And if you read my first post I would really like to see a better resolution then that proposed by the DEVS. Removing names no matter how anyone trys to justify it is just stupid.

JC stop reading only what you want too !!!
I dontcare if people AFK...maybe they needed too !
My whole point was if I pull a misson on an afk player now and wait a while.....then think meh waited long enough I'll try a new mark.
Head to the terms and see that AFK jedi's misson again I can avoid it...because I know his name !!! When the changes happen this will not be possible.
After publish 20 comes out yes alot of low level jedi will get off terms. U say theirs lots of jedis with their glowysticks in theed, then their should be lots of higher level jedi to hunt on the terms.
u trying to justify how it is stupid is plain out retardededed

Yep I want it easier then AFK grinding on Kashyyyk.
when I turn on the news, I rarely see "the police are looking for so and so in connection with the double blah blah blah" accompanied by a photo...
it's more often than not, a composite sketch, and an officer asking for anyone who has anyinformation regarding the incident or thepotential suspect to please call their tip line.
I currently know at least 12 jedi who are "shielded" from opposing bh's by friendly bh's....the fight clubbers of the old frs abused names quite easily, and as it stands now, due to named marks there is quite alot of abuse of the system by bh's.
names and payouts....it defies logic to even attempt to justify allowing either to remain given the abuses on both sides of the mechanic.
