Ding ding! THAT'S the reason why they are making this change: because of this gank squad mentality.

Gank squad mentality? You need more than one bh to kill a 225k jedi how are two of you supposed to take one down it there is no name on the mission? What do you do, take the mission then go home because the jedi is a knight? Jedi are the ones who gank squad and rule pvp not the bh.

Agreed. Looks like back to Counter Strike and Empire At war when it is released.

I've killed many 225k Jedi and it's not about brute force to take one down. The Jedi's advantage is brute force. The bounty hunter's advantage is first strike. You choose when. You choose where. It's a matter of timing and striking at the Jedi when he's weak.

bh will lose its role completly. the 2%ers of bh that can accually take a knight will find themselves looking for paddys on kash all day rather than hunting knights... and theres no way in hell im going to track a jedi for an hour and kill him only to find out i just made 30K... this is the most ridiculus thing i have ever heard from soe, gamebreaking for bh.

It's really quite simple why they're doing this...
...the devs love reading all the remedial "cry more noob" replies.

Gamebreaking how? You have all the advantages, in your favor at the moment, 1/5 the time if not less to *attain* the profession mastery, (because you were a BH for 2 years doesnt mean anything, it just means you were a BH for 2 years), you choose when where how to fight, and can wow bring friends! (try using some creative coordination, when finding people who also have same jedi, hell you guys post enough info about instances), you also get this, earn money from killing us, yes thats right make a gain for an hour or so of searching, us on the other hand lose *hours if not more* of work in the same hour it took you to find us. This also adds to the idea that Bounty hunters are nuetral mercenaries for hire, no selective hutning, if you spend the time to track somone down find out they are a friend oops your loss, your judgment call.
Once finding said jedi, most Bounty Hunters(not some good ones out there) then proceed to either lose or win, usually win, upon losing proceed to send hate tells.. yay fun like i need that for defending myself, (yes some jedi b*tch aswell about being killed).
I like that fact you cannot be choosy about who and what your hunting, we sure as hell cant pick who is after us, so adds some *wow get this* risk to you! in the chance you get a knight.
Please people try not to equate months of playing a profession to months or working to attain it. Its not the same, you have all the tools you need fairly soon, barring weapons, special items that may take time. We however need to start off as a worm..having 1/10 of what we will have at full template having to deal with you people. Give me a break, and solo is pretty much a dead issue.

First, I am not here to defend afk jedi grinding (if there is such a thing). I do not have the expansion, nor do I plan to buy it until I am complete template so I haven't been to wook planet and seen this so called "safe haven". However, in defense of Oxala, I know him and can testify that at no point did he do ANY afk grinding for FS or Jedi. He was at his keyboard the whole time. I (also not doing afk grinding in case you didn't catch it the first time) think it is silly that I have 13 bh in a 3 day time span because I am a weak paddy and an easy target just because you can't grind group w/out becoming vis instantly. I do not get an attitude with the bh that come after me unless they are a jerk to me first. In fact, I often compliment them on the kill, or at least the effort if I win, because I know it takes a lot of time to find a mark, track, and attack. With all that being said, this patch is not for complete template Jedi or the afk grinders, even though it helps them as well, this patch is for somewhat weak Jedi, such as myself, who get attacked every five seconds because they aren't yet strong enough to grind by themselves without it taking an hour to get the same kind xp you get group grinding in 15 min. I'm sorry if you aren't happy with the patch but personally, I am hoping that the attacks will slow down a bit. BH hunting Jedi is part of the game but it gets frustrating when you can't go anywhere w/out being attacked.
