Bounty Hunter Archive

"First off, you say "ALL Jedi" wich is a HUGE generalization... there are plenty of Jedi that stick to their own little corner of the galaxie that you probably don't even know exsist. Some of these Jedi, however, do end up on the BH terminal for reasons partially out of their control."
__
I doubt it, i strongly do. SMART jedi, stay the **edit** out of town, they dont do missions where they get recorded and they dont ever use force powers for no apparent reson. I have guild jedi than we're never killed before, one of my guilds jedi has never been hunted by a Bounty Hunter...ever. Because hes smarter than your average dumbass out there who thinks he can own the world because they're Novice Padawan.
__
"Second, no amount of Bounty Hunters are gonna keep the Jedi poplulation down. To a Jedi a Bounty Hunter is simply a speed bump on the way through their journey. I have never met a Jedi who quit the game because they couldn't handle the Bounty Hunters lol."

Then you don't pay enough attention;

Thats just one. He posted a PETHETIC whine and threat to quit. I've seen some of these where a jedi was clone camped and he quit, a guild ganked a jedi so many times he quit, and combat medic killed a jedi in the squil caves and he quit."
__
"And even if they did quit is that what you want? To completely suck the fun out of someones gaming experience to the point that they would quit after months and months of dedication?"

"All of your examples are just generalizations and cookie cutter things that you hear ranted on the forums w/o any specific examples. "

Nope, i play the game. I've been in a position since day two where i watched the Jedi from a neutral point of veiw, take over, the day i saw 3 Rebel Jedi in Theed (pre patch) slaughter 50 Imperials and then laugh at them was when i knew this game was going to hell. I saw their behavior getting worse and worse as time progressed. If you say you've never seen or heard about a Jedi being a complete **edit** to ANYONE, weather it be a Bounty Hunter or a Doctor who buffs them, then your either a Jedi yourself or your just plain stupid.
__
"How is it that Jedi abuse there power? Sure there are a few bad seeds, but that can be said for any profession."
_
Last time i checked Jedi just got two patches while we got jack f'in **edit**, you can't say we abuse our power when most of our power is broken. The Jedi are now the voice of the people, since most people now are, are going, or are considering to go Jedi. The devs think that what they have to say is always important, some stuff is, but sometimes they just complain and take GREATLY needed attention away from the rest of us who aren't glowsick weilding freaks who were only one of our proffesion for a few days.
__
"In reality they are very cordial with the rest of the player base, considering they are the fall guy for just about every problem in the game according to these message boards."
__
Not every problem, I never blame the Jedi because my Flamethrower doesn't work right, or that my Light Lighting Cannon needs more Accuracy, or that Smuggler has Zero content, or that the Galactic Civil War is a complete joke...Oh wait, i do. Because if Jedi never existed like they're supposed to then my Flamethrowe WOULD work, and Bounty Hunter specials WOULD be fixed, and Smuggler contend WOULD be added, its all just delays, delays, delays for the Devs...Why? Jump to Lightspeed and Jedi...their two "Favoirte" children. Their #1 Monymakers.
__
"Also, if you want to read some "OMGZOR we suck we need better powers" check a few months back on the BH boards... It was for a time THE primire board for whining, complaining, and genral hatred of everything in the game."
__
The farther back i look the more bitching i see, i remeber the forums to be a place where you could post your ideas and get FEEDBACK from the devs, thats how the AT-ST got nerfed, thats how the Creature Handeler got nerfed, thats how Commandos for their 4 nerfs. Then they stoped checking for things to nerf. We scream nerf, we make pettitions, we vent all our furstration on eachother because nobody will listen. If the devs listened to US maybe we would be a little nicer to you...All of you.

Now i'm tired, so if you have a snappy responce then save it, and post it a few pages back tommorow morning to i can continue to defend my beliefs.

Its the ultimate end game. Hunting down a more powerfull profession that may be protected by several FOTM template stackers is my content. I do nothing else. Ever.

1) I like being the underdog

2) I like the thrill of hunting a mark who, most likely, will kick the crap out of me.

3) I want to humble Jedi. Not grief, Humble I like taking the arrogant types and knocking them down a peg. Most Jedi I know are the type 1, "Whoopse, got on the boards!" Jedi who accept whats going on. But those #2 Jedi... thems are fun to kill. I like knocking jerks down a peg.

4) The thrill of the hunt itself. Chasing a highly mobile target is challenging.

5) Jedi who pretend to be BH's so they can come to our boards and whine about being hunted, because they think saying they are a BH will make us accept their ideas and not call them what they are, whiners.

Another thing to note is that in the Jedi forums he said he is about to become a Jedi.

I am a long time player that is currently working on the Jedi quests to open up my slot. I'm getting closer every day, and a couple day ago I started putting together a template that I really want to persue.

My first question is, will Master Saber / Master Healer / 4/0/0/4 Enhancer be a viable template in PvE and PvP? ...

My last question is in regard to Jedi Healing and visibility... It seems kinda unfair for a Master Healer to gain visibility by healing commrads and such.. I mean the powers are built directly into the tree. If someone could varify that they do gain visibility from using any of their force heal specials on another player, that may be enough for me to rewrite my template.

A simple question that I am very curious to see answered by the BH community...

First off let me say that I am a Master Bounty Hunter and have been so the better part of a year.

A few months ago when the droids started working and what-not, I started taking player Jedi missions... I have a list in my bio of all the bounties I've collected, but lately I am starting to wonder why I ever did player bounties at all.

Recenly a very good friend of mine, and the person who got me involved with SWG in the first place unlocked his Jedi. This made me think. I thought about all of the Player Jedi that I have hunted and it really put into perspective how pointless and just plain mean taking player bounties is.

The way I see it there are really only 2 reasons that someone would want to hunt a Jedi.

1) They are a hardcore Roleplayer and are simply playing the role of a ruthless Bounty Hunter. (However this, at least on my server, is not very likely seeing how almost nobody roleplays in any form)

2) They are a pure griefer, and take pleasure in physically causing unrest in other peoples lifes and gaming experience.

I flat out stopped hunting Jedi for this reason alone... It's not going to "control" the population in any way to hunt Jedi and cause xp loss. People who play Bounty Hunter under this guise are fooling them selves because anyone who is playing a Jedi went to the extreme lengths to reach that goal... Simply put, I am not going to participate in this act any more because it involves another players personal time, wich is something I have no right to intrude on in such a large fashion. There are a lot of good people out there playing Jedi just to have fun, and the grind is already bad enough for them that they don't need some random BH comming to add hour apon hour to that grind.
