Even IF FRS Jedi lose overt TEF and get BH TEF, its the BHs choice WHEN he engages. A FRS Jedi in PvP will use force and get hit - so you can wait for an appropriate moment (either Jedi is retreating from combat because of low force) or he is on low health so you can one/twoshot him. Already did that .

We are now doing the 1 v 1 jedi hunts. What are we to expect once the FRS kicks in and we have Knights and Masters? Will they be hunted and will it be at all possible to bring one down 1 v 1?

Here is an Idea. Perhaps this may be done to bring the BH and jedi Community together more. Perhaps a higher lesson is being presented here. When the Jedi is in the FRS he/she is Perma-Overt and other overt Jedi will be able to help you complete your mission as well. Imagine that BH's and Jedi working together?

BH tef overides factional tef meaning other overts can't help you.

While it will be a concern of BH vs Jedi when the FRS is implemented. We still have 2 publishes coming up shortly. Tanks hinted that the BH community will be happy in the upcoming patches. Of course he was not at liberty to divulge what it actually is that's coming up. Actually, everyone is hush about it.

If the rumors are true, and I stress the words if and rumor, then pub 21 will be an elite bh profession. If that is actually true, it will change the entire landscape of the game. The dominant class until the FRS kicks in will be BH, and not jedi. (Of course if it is true, they'd probably do something odd like make invest xp the criteria for gaining levels.)

I say, sit back, relax, and keep an eye out on test center. Right now, it's very close to being even on a master bh vs master paddy. Be happy with that for now, until they announce the FRS. (Even the FRS is a mystery at the moment. It is probably completely changed from the previous FRS. If it doesn't, then why are they delaying it.)

That would be freaking sweet.

Opposing factional TEF and "bounty hunter TEF" are applied to both combatants as soon as any of the combatants attacks.

According to this you get both which means you CAN use other overts to help you.

No thanks....plus once we have the mission noone else can pull the mission thus noone else can attack the jedi for that mission. If someone else kills the mark before the BH does, we get "mission incomplete"

If one presumes the FRS comes back in some form of resemblance to the old system. Then what we have been seeing in P20 is guiding your profession to group with knights to assist you in getting the mark. My resoning is this.
1. IF we are back to perma SF status. and
2. If terminals are reporting faction.
Then it makes sense that is how you will get help in killing your mark. Opposing factioned Knights will be able to attack your mark but not directly assist you.

Now this being said I have no belief that FRS will look anything like we had.

and I have no desire to work with jedi to hunt jedi.....

Seriously I dont think a BH should be able to take down a Master. Unless he is afk that is. They really need to explore the 1v1 system more before locking into it. They say jedi are 1.5x better so 1v1 we are at a disadvantage already. Throw in FRS mods and that 1.5x will be much higher. I know jedi who lay waste to Bh's in under 30sec. Maybe after some time with the 1v1 system they will get a better feel at how many times a BH dies vs a jedi. Some bean counter may be keeping track. If its very lopsided I am sure a change will come.

It would be cool if it scaled based on how many BH's the jedi killed before you. So if he killed 5 before you then he would go up for a 2v1 mission. Mission would be group rated and you and a partner while grouped could complete it. No need to search all over for it. Then say the jedi kills 10 Bhs in a row he goes up for 3v1 mission. That way it scales on how many kills the jedi made on the BH.

I know jedi will soon get bored when they insta kill all Bh's that come after them. At some point there needs to be more than 1 guy attacking or it will continue to be insta kill over and over.
