Too cool, soon I will be full template and my content becomes loot chasers. Oh well, I will wait and let you guys stalk me, and I will be ready. Bring your droids, bombs, and disposable armor. I can help you buy more, hunt me please.

I've had the same thoughts. Let the jedis die of boredom.
The main plan with publ. 20 must have been to make BHs to become content for full temps jedis. Don't let them have the fun killing you, its always better to abort the mission if it's a full temp. Theres nothing to win in a fight with them, the time and costs for decay and foods areso high its not worth hunting them. They won't loose any xpby getting killed of you anyway.And furthermore it only gives them content to continue playing.
Let the jedis keep growing in numbers, go hunt the low paddys for some content for your own sake now and then. The faster the jedi grows, the faster will we get a non-jedi/timeline correct server for us real SW-fans. Then the jedis can mingle by themselves, but there will be noone to show-off for.
I'm one of those who would easily pay 100 bucks to get rid of jedi and get a timeline correct server.

I know most of you have already realized this and stopped hunting jedi....well who could blame you?
It's a waste of time. Who wants to fight an hour long fight to drain a full templates force, everytime? Not to mention the drain it puts on your armor and weapons if they aren't all adk'd. The cost in droids, food, buffs, and the time isn't worth it. Definetly don't give uber joe jedi the satisfaction of being hunted and killing you quickly with his exploited saber. and don't give the cloaking wussies the opportunity to stasis you then cloak and laugh at you.
Just go for the loot, I'd say completely forget the jedi, let them nerf each other to oblivion and we'll get rich from npcs.
Let the jedi die from boredom.

You know this is exactly what SOE expects you to do, right?
1) ROTW is released and droids don't give the exact waypoint of the Jedi. Was a bug at first, but eventually got enough positive press to make it a feature. Eventually the droids are disabled completely on Kashyyyk because SOE doesn't want "content" (read "grinding")being interupted my mean ol' BH.
2) SOE reps at Fan Fest state that the BH/Jedi relationship needs some looking into.
3) Publish 20: names and payouts are removed from the terminals. A) Makes it impossible for Bounty Hunters to avoid fully templated Jedi they know they can't defeat. B) Removes the Bounty Hunter's option of matching names of previously seen Jedi to instances when they scan the terms. C) Remove group vis
The above means that every Jedi will either be C) Off the terms, B) on the terms but untrackable, or C) on the terms, trackable, but undefeatable.
4) Pub 21 introduces new NPC content.
Even if you can defeat a fully templated Jedi, you have to admit that the entire system of visibility, bounties, and XP loss has been made null and void. The bulk of full template Jedi don't give a damn about any of the above and the non-completed Jedi are either off the terms or where we can't get to them very easily. We're basically being turned into content for the big Jedi, while the little ones are being handed a BH-free grind.
So not only has the current BH/Jedi system been made ineffective, but now they're giving us new NPC content to fill the gap.
No one sees a connection?
Vcarrdosk: Some got the cash, some dont. Yes, I got 100 bucks to spend to get rid of jedi and i sure would use it for that. If 15 bucks is too much for you for this game, stop playing. And jedi duel show-offs outside SPs are totally not SW! That regular professions duel in towns are not any problem for me. It's like the old Wild-west duels. But jedi are supposed to keep low and stay honorable. That must be a part you have missed with jedi.
lol you have any idea how many rifleman/bh run up within 10m of me and open fire. Pretty much all of them which I never understand after I'm done killing them I usually tell them they should try attacking me from max range to start the fight

IT NOT UNBALANCED, YOUR JUST BAD. Jedi are so easy to kill, but its morons likes you who run up to jedi when they are fully fooded and ready. Here take a tip. Watch them. Don't run up and attack the first 5 mins you see them. Stalk them wait until they are vulnerable, Jedis go out and hunt and pvp and etc. Watch them kill a couple lairs so you know their force is down alot. BE SMART. Most Jedi duel people alot, wait till they have a quarter health left and one shot them. Of course your not going to win against jedi a 1 on 1 if hes prepared Unless your a MCM or theira respec Jedi. You were never meant to. In design They are meant to be1.5X more powerful then you and no matter how much you whine it won't change that. They kind of grinded alot longer than you did.But you have the power to attack him whenever you want. Use it.

Dathomir, I've only seen the newest SW flicks a few times, but where is Dathomir given any definitive qualities in the movies?
In the book of ROTJ it was mentioned as to explain where jAbba got his rancor. Also has been Apart of the SWEU. This game Has little to do with the movies.
You do all realise that if the loot is any good at all we will never see a Jedi again as they will all be on their alts looting the NPCs.
/whisper ...pssssst there I told you I could post that without using the words "lewt horz"
That's what i'll be doing
