...what kind of armor is 25mil...
25 mil is armor on the cheap if you are serious about Jedi hunting.
A good set of Tantel (8100-8200 Energy) will run about 2 mil. That's 9 pieces of armor, 7 of which need to be ADk'd at 8-14 mil a piece.
Its not the Jedi population out of hand its the BH, so they should bring death penalty in for BH as well, i would agree to anything, even perma death, saber tef waht ever as long as it was balanced , ie u can lewt my saber i can lewt your corpse, i get perma death so do you, saber tef, you get a tef as well and any jedi can kill you, just keep things balanced.

10's of millions ooh scary, Tell you what though, I would even suggest teh jedi get to salvage a ADK if he has one on the sabre. Although I doubt all would be so charitable.
Ive spent 12 million on knucklers, my 25 mil armour has lost 1/9 of its condition in one days hard content hunting. Credits in this game come easy, plenty of Jedi out there seem to find 100's of millions on ca's and flawless pearls etc. They have a free alt, with which they can make plenty of credits.
Over saturday \ sunday Ive used up 5 mil of equipment as consumables exclusing foods, no deaths just normal content. Why should Jedi be alone in not losing their good equipment. The whole idea of this is to discourage Jedi getting visibility.
The only Jedi who lose out will be those who are indescreet. Dont many Jedi have a couple of light sabres? Too many Jedi are far to arrogant, and duel with impunity in public places, this would be a big discouragement to such behaviour. If you cant behave with it the bounty hunters get to take it away. If you play smart you have no risk.
I dont think it would be long till the jedi started carrying cheapo sabres with them for regular use.

Too many Jedi are far to arrogant and light the glowsticks up in starports, especially Theed. I completely agree - take away an expensive glowstick, take away the arrogant Jedi's want or desire to be dumb about using it. This is suppose to be a rare profession, not one that is more common than a Master Artisan spam advertising or a Master Dancer AFK dancing in a cantina. This, without the perma-death they are all so worried about, would put them in hiding more. No more 8 man Jedi spin groups on Dant either. No loss of the toon, just the loss of the expensive glowstick . Besides, this would take care of the problem of pre-CU sabers that are so much more powerful than anything we have. Eventually the arrongant Jedi would lose his prized possession! It also fits with the movies - remember Grevious taking dead Jedi's sabers?

Firstly - It's not about Jedi being arrogant - it's about having fun playing the game. This is a multiplayer game - I play it purely to play with my friends. If I wanted to be solo all the time I'd be playing KOTOR. I do not generally use my saber in starports unless I am PvPing, but I do use my saber around other people all the time because we play the game and enjoy the content together.
I played Jedi during STEF, skill loss and permadeath days, and I loved it. And yea, I still used my saber in front of other people because it was still a multiplayer game. I knew the risks involved, and I accepted them - I would not accept the risk of losing 100 million credits worth of lightsaber just because I want to play the game with other people --- why is it that I accepted permadeath risk but would not accept this? Because back then, Jedi was actually good and as a 4444 Guardian I was extremely difficult to kill - now I am soloable by anyone with halfdecent PvP skills and a good set of equipment. You are clearly new to this all because you seem to think that Jedi is still uber - WE ARE NOT. You comment about our sabers being 'better than anything you have' is absolutley ridiculous and shows how much you clearly do not know. My best saber does an average of around 950 damage using improved power attack on a knocked down, armorbroken opponent --- or I can log in my swords toon and with my powerhammer do anywhere between 1200 and 1600 depending on landing with my powerhammer using Improved Critical Strikeon an opponent under the same conditions - AND, my swordsman wears a full suit of armor loaded with attatchments, heals for 6-7k health every6 seconds as opposed to my Jedi healing for 1500 every 6 seconds AND she has intimidate and warcry.
My swordsman, who took about 2 weeks to grind and about 30 million credits to equip, can tear through a Master Defender/Lightsaber Jedi in a matter of maybe2 minutes - and that's IF they last long enough to find thier avoid incap key.
Conversely, even if I win at all,it will take me about30-40 minutes to kill a Master Swords, 4004 Doc, 0300 TK, 0040 Pike templateplayed by someone of equal skill to me,using my Master Saber/Master Enhancer 4040 Healer Jedi - or maybe an hour and a halfusing my Master Healer/Master Enhancer 4004 Saber Jedi -- IF I even get that far before my force runs out and I can no longer even swing my weapon using the defualt attack.
You need to get the hell over the fact that Jedi is not good - regardless of template - we are jacks of all trades now and masters of none. When I was a 4444 Guardian back in the day I could laugh off and murder groups of 5,10 or even 15 people ---- these days, if I run into more than 2 at a time and stasis doesn't stick on the first attempt thenI might as well either lay prone or hit forcerun3.

Thanks for a well thought out post - while I disagree, you made some great points for the Jedi. While you may not be arrogant, some of your bretheren certainly are. The point of the post was what to do to make this profession "rare" again. In otherwords, not seeing 20 Jedi dueling at the starport. Do we se 20 MBH dueling there? Not at all, and our profession is not supposed to be so "rare". While I understand and appreciate your points, you must agree that to be timeline correct, in this game, Jedi must be rare or not exist at all. As a roleplayer, anything that will stop the glowsticks and robes in places like Theed is a welcome change. It makes the game more consistant with the movies. Cheers for a well thought out post, even if I disagree.

OK Im gonna get flamed for this one, but heres an idea I've came up with for a new Jedi discouragement \ BH incentive.
First of all get the pearls dropping again, maybe from something on mustafa so dangerous that 8 jedi are required to kill it, and then its not easy.
Second give them different robes with different effects.
Third give them somewhere to hunt out of the way of the rest of the game population where they dont get visibility.
Fourth SABRE LOOT, anyone killing a jedi in PVP, BH or otherwise gets the to loot the jedis sabre - it will of course be "broken" and pearls are unretrievable, so no one can profit, but you get a nice trophy for the effort. MY theory goes that less jedi will be out getting visibility if their glow sticks gonna get conviscated for their actions.
Fifth if the above alone doesnt end duelling at starports, and reduce jedi visibility, bring in starport sabre TEF any Jedi iwith a ignited LS within 300m of a starport is instantly attackable by any bh in the neighbourhood.
I for one would love a collection of Jedi light sabres for display.
I think there would be a lot less full template uber sabres getting visibility.

Sabers are worth about 30 mill + considering all the effort and loot that goes into the crystal/pearls/resources.
So no basically.
saber bodies are a dime a dozen and take nearly nothing to make.. if im geting just a "saber body" off the jedi that would be cool.. let him keep his pearls/crystals.. thats fine.. the saber body is the reward not the weapon.. personally as a jedi i go through so many saber bodies.. but i keep the same pearls/crystals .. i use 1 adk kit and when i get sick of the saber and want a new one i just craft one.. i have access to a ls crafting suit and the resources.. most places you can buy a ls resource kit for 750k and easily make 20 ls from..
