Many old time BH's will remember the old method of Bounty Hunting where you and only you could damage the Mark. We just got done hooking this back up. To everyone else but the BH the mark will appear white. The intent of these missions was to follow a very cannon style experience of the solo Boba Fett Bounty Hunter vs the target. The loot quality and drop rates are too favorable to let these missions be farmed en masse by large groups. I just would like to know from the players who have been testing these if they are able to win vs the Boss level Marks.


These missions are intended to be challenging with the Mark always a few levels higher than the difficulty of the mission.

Correct me if I'm wrong, butdidn't the old system constantly fail and the mark's name was white to the hunter as well? I was under the impression that this bug was never fixed and instead theTEF was just removed altogether so that the hunter was guaranteed an attackabletarget (albeit one attackable to everyone).


So does this mean we will soon see the re-emergence of the infamous "white named marks"?

I don't think we will see that bug return. The only reason I am confident has more to do with the way NPC's interact now compared to back then. With the introduction of different NPC's on Kash having the ability to fight and then turn white, or vice versa and after they fixed the pirate quest in the Hermit quest a lot of the BH NPC mark bugs seemed to go away. Granted I'm still in the group that refuses to chase marks on endor (in fear that they will be swimming) I think we won't have any problems with this system.

i delete all slicing stuff too, and have a huge bag of weapon and other SEA's that i cant use but would benifit my hunters. Never ever ever would i sell something that can be used to make armor more resilient or able to reduce armor break, lol talk about self destructive.

I'd love to be able to tell you, but they mothballted TC-Prime right after I made level 80, so I didn't get the chance to try any missions with bosses


Many thanks for making a small, but significant improvement to our profession - and on your own time.

Well, testings so far on these new things..and so far, none have been "gold elite", has shown, that a MBH without healing is a dead or very much hurting MBH.


So..if you're a MBH, and wanna hunt? Start configuring your template to have healing..and stock up on mind regen food.




1200 pt Stim-Ds and Ruby Bliel won't suffice? I usually add in a Neutron Pixie, Thundercloud, Breath of Heaven or Swirl, and synthsteak if needed. I hope that's sufficient.






Maybe the first minute, but with healing myself for 600 every 10 seconds, I ended up with 10% health in the end and zero mind on at least 2 I've fought so far.


Some may say I dunno how to fight, or how to "template", but thats thepoint isnt it? For a MBH to do his job, should he be needed into certain templates? Isnt it enough that he is "forced" to be MBH? Now he is forced to spend his SP on Medic/CM/Doc too, just to do his job? It just shows how skewed the system became after the CU with "healing pwns j00". These marks, show that.


thats like telling a smuggler to pickup BE, so he can slice...Well..with the loot on these BH marks, a BH/Smuggler, will be rather....rich. So far, 3 boosters looted....

Kinda interested to know how I as a MBH/MR/Pistol xxx4 will fair. I have no healing, but what I do have is a 2400 energy resist psg, and 8100 energy tantel armor, I also use 1250 stim d's and ruby, along with foods.


The thing here is knowing what your mark has in the way of a weapon. If he is pistols or carb then kite outside 50 meters, root and snare to assist. A rifle wielding mark will be a tougher battle me thinks.
