Its a sad day to see these changes to BH.

My rule for missions was I only hunted knights. But I also hunted anyone with a dumb name, regardless of payout.

Now I will be forced to kill paddys. So far I am 12 solo full template knight kills, and 4 knight deaths.

Will be a rough time for the paddys on bria after this patch




LOL, that's so funny - here I thought I was the only dumb name hunter heh

Not Everybody wo takes Bounty Hunter does it to hunt Jedi. I have Bounty Hunter in My template for the sole purpose of enhancing my Rifle/Ranged Skills. I only hunted a few NPC marks, I've never bothered picking up any investigation boxes. Bounty Hunter does provide some nice combat skills and Ranged bonus for the Ranged Marksman.

if you will, take a look at the clicky in my sig. that is me as Master Bounty Hunter / Master Combat Medic. I took up Bounty Hunter for the unique ability to unlock the 'mini-game' of hunting NPCs and ended up mastering the profession for the sepcials and abilities it has. i FULLY understand taking up Bounty Hunter as a profession ASIDE from hunting Jedi. i never hunted a player character even once as a Master Bounty Hunter.


that having been said, i was referring to the experienced, patient, extremely skilled players who will hang on and make the Bounty Hunter vs. Jedi dynamic much more scary for Jedi. i FULLY expect to have my arse handed to me by these players and honestly don't take issue with it. in fact, if the player is respectful and / or a good RPer the experience can be quite enjoyable even if i end up losing...

you know who that leaves?


the REALLY SCARY Bounty Hunters. the Hunters with the skill to take out a Full Template Jedi solo more often than not. the Hunters you always HOPE don't pick your misson.


Post Publish 20...when i hear that music and know i have been agroed...THAT is going to be terrifying






I agree with this sentiment. I think that one of the game's problems has been the sheer number of bounty hunters. I think the weak will fall to the wayside, leaving only the determined, the relentless.


Determined can be really scary.

Not to mention that the patch notes will be revised frequently before going live. Who knows what may happen.

I've been a Jedi for a year. I have faced the hard core BHs. I am still not scared, and am still glad I am a Jedi BHs only imagine that kind of power.

And it's this arrogance that proves your profession is imbalanced and is gamebreaking. I can take down Knights, so i am not bothered. I know not to jump off my speeder and immediately run in guns a' blazin'. Last night, I nearly got a Guardian. It was in a big PvP battle, but for a minute it was him and me... and 2 enemy turrets... those damn turrets...

while i don't agree that the profession is imbalanced or gamebreaking... i don't think that arrogent statements help the dynamic of the game any. it is arrogance and flawnting of what power we have left that makes so many hate Jedi in general, and not just those who bring the profession a bad name.

You mistake me not being intimidated by the "will make you wish you never got your Jedi statements" for arrogance. It's not. I have just heard those kinds of statements before. There are a few BHs that make me nervous, but for the most part, no.


And there are no guardians.
