blending melee and BH is on my list of issues.
it seems like it makes sense to me, but it would take some major work to get it done. still i think it would be fun.
On that note.......
I am running into more and more enhancer jedi as a bh, so I am thinking about going MBH Mswordsman on my alt.
I am going to respec to master BH, but grind master swords (you can't learn a proff by respecing to it)
any suggestions for weapons? (might as well start looking now)
Actually, the thread over on the Brawler boards isn't about melee/bh templates, it's a proposal for a new profession that would be the equivalent of the ranged bounty hunter we have today. It would allow melee to play as a BH and have investigationabilities and missionswithout spending points in ranged skills.
No I think you misunderstood me or you didnt follow the link. I didnt mean TKM/MBH as a template. I meant that they want/need/ proposed the idea of a Melee version of the Bounty Hunter Profession, which as of now is strictly ranged. Got what Im sayign now? If now follow the link provided.

By "decent" healing are you talking about getting points in CM ?
Seems a ton of BH's have points in CM these days
That topic was very old, but there were many peopel who agreed with it as well as the peopel who had the topic pre cu on the BH forums. I dont think we should let this idea be forgotten, it is very important and with alot of work would be a great addition to SWG. But who do we talk to to see if something liek this would be possible?
Would it be a good idea to create a rough draft and get everyones ideas and put them together as if it were a proposal of osme sort.
I just want to see what you all can come up with to make this profession prosper, kinda like a challenge. What do you say? Up for it?
Wanna make up an imaginary profession, who knows maybe the DEV's owuld liek the idea too?
yeah, right now melee BH is a joke specially with the MBH needed now. could be fun to see a melee BH profession.

same set up as ranged, same skill point cost, same basic idea sept melee. just gotta throw a few specials and mods in there
what people are asking for is a bounty hunter profession that uses a melee line (like the last line of the brawler tree) and gives melee specials.
this would make a MTK/MBH far more effective because you aren't "wasting" skill points on ranged lines that you are never going to use.
i like the idea personally, and think most everyone involved (melee classes, and jedi) would like to see the variety it would bring to the jedi vs. bh content of the game.

mbh requires ranged support i believe, and the specials it gives are only able to be used with a ranged weapon equipped.

it would be cool, either using the 0004 from marksman or 4000 from brawler. i used to be a melee BH about a year ago when all you needed was invest 3000 to hunt jedi (but all missions were 25k no matter how good the jedi
