Give the Jedi a nice fix. Don't nerf 'em, make them better. But just let me bring my friend. We'll see what happens.

What we all have to realize is the PvE Jedi that whined and whined until Jedi was watered down to the point the profession had to be nerfed. On the Jedi forum there was this huge thread about making Jedi a PvE profession, I asked a question stating would they continue to ask for Jedi to be more PvE oriented if it meant that the profession was nerfed hard......the answer was they didn't care if Jedi was the worst profession in the game as long as they were able to play like they wanted (PvE).


Devs of course the genious group they are decided to go half way. They made Jedi easier to unlock, easier to grind, removed almost all penalties BUT they kept BH's able to hunt them 1vs1 (can still be exploited to be 3 vs 1) while nerfing them to the point it makes more sense to play a non-Jedi than a Jedi. All in all, devs just gave too much to the whiney carebears. I for one hate PvP but understood it was the way of Jedi, I learned to live with it and found it was enjoyable even when ganked by 5 people using TEF lol (and I was ganked like this). Overall it gave me a warm fuzzy feeling that it took that many people to come take me out, now you have a single player fighting to the point neither of us wins..........fricking carebears and their whines, I hope they like what they've done because I spit on all of them.

When will all the super fan movie buffs realize that we are playing a game, a game set in George Lucas' Star Wars world, but it is a persistent world and the entire community including Devs need to realize that Lucas gave us the tools, how we use thos etools and what we build with them will determine the direction our persistant world takes. I'm sure if Lucas goes on to make episode 3628, you might see a jedi cloak or a BH completely pwn a Jedi, or even a jawa being raised to the knighthood, who knows who cares, its hard enough for alot of us to seperate SWG from our daily lives, why would we want to dwell on such great movies as well. If you want to reinact th emovies find a good single player game that does that, I got 1 on MAME does a good job, maybe you should see if that fits more to your liking

Its not impossible for multiple BH to take a mission...just time consuming. Also... I like the challenge of hunting alone... its much more gratifying to toast your mark by yourself...although to be succesful requires alot of gear

I don't remeber seeing a bh kill any jedi in the movies, and Bobo and Jango worked solo or hired some one because maybe they could not move about, unless when jango knocked that jedi off the balacony in ep 2. But the soon to be empire showed thier true cowardness when the ganked all those jedi in ep3 lol


I been a master bh for a long time, solo always solo, to me is more fun.. you win somw you lose some..

i don't remember anyone being tef'ed and unable to get on a ship either...

seems escaping a fight by getting the heck out of dodge on a ship is a pretty integral part of the movies....

i'd LOVE to see Jedi get "fixed" and BH get to take the same mark easily..


But while it WOULD fix the Jedi/BH dynamic, it would create more complications in GCW PvP.







So take the Jedi out of the GCW equation, give us Light /Dark Faction (make us perma overt to eachother), and incur serious FRS XP loss for dying in a GCW fight (IE Loss of rank),

I dunno if Jango had the guy's mission or not, but it sounds like a SWG BH mission; he waits for the Jedi to get into a big PvP fight and then waits for the cheap shot. Conclusion: SWG is accurate according to the movies.

to the op: are you a jedi and is this your way I trying to get jedi buffed?


I'd take a guaranteed one on one EVERY TIME over the stupid gank you want to go back to


and don't make jedi more power FFS, jedi vs. BH is NOT the only pvp

Think of it this way...in the movies there was a Jedi Academy...there is no such training facility after the Emperor takes power. As they explain the village, to my best understanding, it is a group of force seneitive people that were outcast...not ex-jedi masters. The Jedi we are hunting in the SWG timeline could be thought of as the Jedi 'noobs' if you will (not meant as an insult:smileytongue in that they have no formal training in the ways of the Jedi.

So.......


Reinstate FRS, don't bar jedi from GCW but make it a move only the completely done or completely foolish people do. As for the village I think most of those quest are just wrong, Health crystal for 1 Driving between village and endor for 4 hrs is not a force related excersise, make the village a more formal training in FS ways, make the village much longer with more rewards that actually help a player, revamp almost all village missions, or just leave it alone I'll be happy with FRS and Pearl drops...... hehehehe
