Bounty Hunter Archive

Dude I have a Jedi on scylla server ( oh crap their gonna hunt me now) and I'm at a loss for words on this post. What do you want the BH to do send ya an Email and ask to schedule an appointment to attack you. I /bow to the BH that only needs to shoot me once because the pickets have me down on health. Its not their job to kill us from 100% health its their job to KILL US!

If you cant handle it. Sell the Jedi!! Or dont hunt on Dant. its to populated. Find a place far away to pull missions so no one is around. Set your radar to 1024m drop a house near the lair and when you see a dot run in it. But don't expect the BH to play nice its not their job! To be respectful after they kick your arse would be nice and most are unless taunted first.

Man sometimes I hate to admit I'm Jedi!

/lowers head and sadly leaves room

1. Don't be weak and follow you mark around for half a hour and wait until he is low on force or health to attack, thats just lame do your own work for your own money.

The primary advantage that the hunter has is the ability to choose when and where to fight. Aside the fact, if I see a blue dot following me around for a half hour then I concentrate on it rather than anything else.

2. With the new rules for how we engage each other there is no reason to blow up each others bikes, thats really just another form of grief.

Bull, blowing a speeder after the person is already dead is griefing - blowing it when you first arrive is tactical.

3. Don't hunt your own faction, if you want to hunt all jedi go newt, we see purple as trust.

Faction is meaningless now, the GCW is dead - it's a legitimate tactic, in my opinion, to hunt same faction for exactly the reason you just gave - someone seeing a purple dot is a lot less on edge and more unsuspecting.

4. All hunters have or should have a deathblow catch phrase, use that instead of screaming how you pwned us, spitting,vomiting or other custom emotes on us.

Couldn't agree more.

5. Give us a chance to cool down after you do succed in killing us, 400k is alot of time we just lost, before you report us even the best of us get aggrovated after it happens, please be professional and don't fuel the fire on purpose.

I was a Jedi back in permadeath days, and even then I didn't kick up a crying insult fest like most of these respec noobs do now. It's tacky and pathetic - so you lost some xp, it's a game, if you don't like losing xp, play a different profession, or run away when you're attacked.

6. The only time a jedi gets pwned is when he gets caught with his pants down or he is brand new, that isn't something to be proud of, the bottom line is we lost you won, lets doit again after we hae some time to perfect our techniques.

Totally incorrect - Jedi now is utterly, disgustingly weak. The fact that you think that a 'full template' Jedi is somehow uber is laughable, I kill full template Jedi all day on any and all of my combat toons - yet I remember when it would take fifteen to twentypeople just to incap my 4444 Guardian. Jedi now is a regular profession, just like any other - if a 'normal' player knows what they are doing it is anyone's fight.

7. Never insult us by saying its just for the money, MBH missions are the quickest way to get filthy rich right now.

Agree with this - it's not for the money, it's for the adrenal rush, just be honest about it.

8. Don't exploit it is dumb perioddon't ruin things on both sides of the of this for us.

Jedi exploit just as much as Bounty Hunters, Riflemen, Fencers and probably Chefs.

9. Unless you have a legitimate issue don't send up a csr ticket, they get so bogged down with bs that a friend of mine got killed by a hunter with a power hammer, doc buffing himself, wearing a master armorsmith tag today, and he will continue to do this and get away with this since they get more complaints in 48 hours than they can handle in that time period. As for the skills you do the math on the points.

Agree with this - too many whiny little b!tches in this game.

10. If we get away don't blame us and greif us for doing so, some of us can't win against you and understand that, if we get away using any method thats not an exploit its your fault for not keeping us there.

Again, totally agree.... you're a Bounty Hunter, not a Bounty Killer - some of the best hunts involve chases lasting multiple hours, stop crying. Most of the BH's I see on the forums saying 'waaa u run awaaaay!111!!!' are the same people that turn tail and run like they stole somethingevery timethey see me load in overt or in a guild war.

11. And lastly please understand that everytime you get nerfed they are going to or allready have nerfed us I can't stand all the complaining that goes on both sides.

Yup - there'll soon be nothing left of this game thanks to the carebears.

So there ya are, theres my rant. Feel free to comment, but as stated above keep it professional.

I hope I managed to do that.

To the OP im not gonna waste my time giving you detailed responses....

I play a Jedi

I play a Bounty Hunter

Shut up... and please do us all a favour and dont bother posting your pathetic /forcerants on a board that isnt meant for you want to whine about Bounty Hunters go do it on your own boards. But most of the jedi there will call you an idiot... just for your very first point

1. Don't be weak and follow you mark around for half a hour and wait until he is low on force or health to attack, thats just lame do your own work for your own money.

So obviously this isnt classed as work? You seem to think its easy to do this.....sheez

1. Don't be weak and follow you mark around for half a hour and wait until he is low on force or health to attack, that's just lame do your own work for your own money.

This one I feel is something we need to do, especially against full templates, you are supposed to be stronger than us, so we wait till your weak, its a necessity of the hunt

2. With the new rules for how we engage each other there is no reason to blow up each others bikes, that's really just another form of grief.

I agree completely

3. Don't hunt your own faction, if you want to hunt all jedi go newt, we see purple as trust.

I agree, I too would see it as a friend, that's what the GCW is about - but some people will never stop that

4. All hunters have or should have a deathblow catch phrase, use that instead of screaming how you pwned us, spitting,vomiting or other custom emotes on us.

I've got a simple one, non-ridiculing, just like a "Well done" or "Good fight" but with a more elaborate saying of course. I used to offer to rez too

5. Give us a chance to cool down after you do succeed in killing us, 400k is a lot of time we just lost, before you report us even the best of us get aggrovated after it happens, please be professional and don't fuel the fire on purpose.

I can get some huge grief from a Jedi, I stick with the "You chose Jedi, you knew what it was" if they bother me constantly - but mostly - i never respond unless its a compliment.

6. The only time a jedi gets pwned is when he gets caught with his pants down or he is brand new, that isn't something to be proud of, the bottom line is we lost you won, lets doit again after we hae some time to perfect our techniques.

this one goes against number 1. If thats the only time you die, then thats what we look for.

7. Never insult us by saying its just for the money, MBH missions are the quickest way to get filthy rich right now.

If you can manage to finish the missions. And sometimes it is just for the money, I need it to buy some new armor or somthing - I never would say it as an insult

8. Don't exploit it is dumb perioddon't ruin things on both sides of the of this for us.

Agreed

9. Unless you have a legitimate issue don't send up a csr ticket, they get so bogged down with bs that a friend of mine got killed by a hunter with a power hammer, doc buffing himself, wearing a master armorsmith tag today, and he will continue to do this and get away with this since they get more complaints in 48 hours than they can handle in that time period. As for the skills you do the math on the points.

Agreed

10. If we get away don't blame us and greif us for doing so, some of us can't win against you and understand that, if we get away using any method thats not an exploit its your fault for not keeping us there.

Eh.... ok - I can follow that, but - you do understand how frustrating that can be. Its like your paycheck blowing away in the wind and you cant catch it. /tear

11. And lastly please understand that everytime you get nerfed they are going to or allready have nerfed us I can't stand all the complaining that goes on both sides.

Ive noticed that as well.

I would never hunt the low level ones if I could see the names again on the terms. I wish I knew who I was hunting - because there are a few that when I get there its like... "oh - its you.... nvm" - Frequently I give them the opportunity to buy their way out of it. Im not as loyal as The Fett - I work for the money - no matter where it comes from.

Overall - agreed with most. Its pretty much only number 1 that wasnt solid. I wish there were more Jedi like yourself you can understand and calmly discuss things.

can i SSjedi's corpse and post it on Image Dump and put a link to my page in my sig??????

KAYTHXBUHBYE

Waste of a post dude. Most of those ideas are alright, butthere are some crapy ones.

1. Don't be weak and follow you mark around for half a hour and wait until he is low on force or health to attack

6. The only time a jedi gets pwned is when he gets caught with his pants down

Lol, use your head dude.

Stalking your mark is part of the profession.

2. With the new rules for how we engage each other there is no reason to blow up each others bikes, thats really just another form of grief.

Leave it out, it gets blown. Not leaving an escape just waiting for you. Besides, it's funny.

3. Don't hunt your own faction, if you want to hunt all jedi go newt, we see purple as trust.

Bounty Hunter's personal choice..I don't, but that doesn't mean I won't ever. I have switched factions to same faction hunt. It's really funny getting a member of a guild to give you faction points so that you can join their faction, and enter their base where their guildmate (who's mark you have) is sitting afk.

4. All hunters have or should have a deathblow catch phrase, use that instead of screaming how you pwned us, spitting,vomiting or other custom emotes on us.

Does a Curtsey count?

5. Give us a chance to cool down after you do succed in killing us, 400k is alot of time we just lost, before you report us even the best of us get aggrovated after it happens, please be professional and don't fuel the fire on purpose.

If you cuss at me, you get reported...along with any of your friends who cuss at me.

6. The only time a jedi gets pwned is when he gets caught with his pants down or he is brand new, that isn't something to be proud of, the bottom line is we lost you won, lets doit again after we hae some time to perfect our techniques.

I hunt you when I get your mission...bottom line

7. Never insult us by saying its just for the money, MBH missions are the quickest way to get filthy rich right now.

You want me to say it's because I enjoy ruining your grind? Nope...it's just the money.

8. Don't exploit it is dumb perioddon't ruin things on both sides of the of this for us.

I don't exploit

9. Unless you have a legitimate issue don't send up a csr ticket, they get so bogged down with bs that a friend of mine got killed by a hunter with a power hammer, doc buffing himself, wearing a master armorsmith tag today, and he will continue to do this and get away with this since they get more complaints in 48 hours than they can handle in that time period.

10. If we get away don't blame us and greif us for doing so, some of us can't win against you and understand that, if we get away using any method thats not an exploit its your fault for not keeping us there.

I hunt...you run. I will eventually catch you and the outcome will be decided then.

11. And lastly please understand that everytime you get nerfed they are going to or allready have nerfed us I can't stand all the complaining that goes on both sides.

Nerfs are bad...if everyone stopped whining, the nerfs might stop....might.

So there ya are, theres my rant. Feel free to comment, but as stated above keep it professional.

Mage

a jedi on server thats not gonna tell you which one so you can hunt my ass

huh?
