I m a jedi, and don't like the fact that we get :
-no vis in group
-no name in term
-random payout
The 3 at the same time ! Isn't that extreme ? I expect jedi to be nerf more. I will bow to BH that will continue to hunt me, really this is too much change at once without step back experience.
kaashik must be corrected for seeker to work there. It has to be with soextrem changes,
Make no mistake. It WILL swing back the other way and we'll get hit. And of course the BH's will gloat.
As long as SOE makes minute adjustments with a sledgehammer, this cycle will be repeated.

# Jedi missions all display a payout of a random number between 45000 - 52000 credits on the terminal but may pay a bonus amount based on level and time since the Jedi was last killed
hmmmmm
One question with this:
How will this affect jedi XP loss??
Will they lose XP based on the random 45-52k amount, or will it be based on final amount awarded??

Good question. My belief is that xp loss will remain the same as it is now, and not dependant on payout.

Her you go Auro.
And yes you need to take a look at a lot of the issues that concern us. Read ALL of the notes carefully.

I want to know how they expect us to locate a Jedi without a name to go along with it? Are they expecting us to go tab happy until we happen to find a player that we can target? Is the name given after you speak with the SpyNet or when you deploy the probe droid?
I have a feeling that we will receive the name one the bio sig is received. But until an offical word it is anyone guess.

I have been wondering that same point. Would really suck if it shows your target in a heavily populated place like MO with no name.

From the Patch Notes:
Updated
All mission terminal missions will auto decay from your Datapad after 3 days (Destroy missions, Bounty missions, etc)
NPC Bounty missions will now work properly. The Mark will be of appropriate difficulty based on the difficulty of the missionMoved Player Bounty Hunting to the Master Bounty Hunter skill Box
Jedi missions are only created for online Jedi, the Jedi may go offline after the mission is created
Jedi missions display Faction instead of Jedi name
Jedi missions all display a payout of a random number between 45000 - 52000 credits on the terminal but may pay a bonus amount based on level and time since the Jedi was last killed
Reduce Temporary Enemy Flag (TEF) timer to 2.5 minutes.
Combat between a bounty hunter and a Jedi for which the bounty hunter has a bounty mission will result in a "bounty hunter TEF". No other TEF (such as factional TEF, for example) is applied. The "bounty hunter TEF" will prevent both the bounty hunter and Jedi from entering player structures, and will eject the player from a player structure if the TEF is received while the player is in the player structure.
Opposing factional TEF and "bounty hunter TEF" are applied to both combatants as soon as any of the combatants attacks.
Group members no longer add to a Jedi's visibility
Players that are using the ability "force cloaked" will no longer be targetable
