The problem with a trophy...is they take up space! How many trophies can you place in a large house and still have room for other stuff?
That is why I think things should happen at intervals. Perhaps a Trophy for your first 20 kills and it lists the names of the Jedi killed when examined?
I still think you all should go for Mods rather than trinkets.( and this comingfrom a Jedi with out a BH alt.) So shhh....don't turn me into my Jedi brothers and sisters hehe.
On the flip side Jedi should get something too for surviving an attack and making a BH kill. But I don't endorse mods for them. Leave the enhancements to FRS and mining Skill tapes. I would love a Trophy of BH kills. Shoot...even a little Star Wars music celebrating the kill would be different. LOL
Totally against looting a Jedi's Saber . Forget that.

yes, saves me a few bucks. I can just buy those skill tapes now. With this system, we would get free skill tapes.

If devs actualy play a BH and a jedi on a live server, they might actualy get a clue about how to balance them.
I was under the impression this happened when SoE took the game over from Verant?
What is funny is by listening to their player base, they are killing the game. If they would have at least made an earnest attempt to stick to a 'vision' we would not be where we are. The forum is WAY to large of a commite to acomplish anything.
*edit* Forgot to say, I LOVE the idea.....wish it was in now, have killed a good handfull of full templates post and pre cu, and have just recently hit 100 successfull hunts since the CU.

LOL Ok I got it. They should make some of those skill /mods attainable only through Jedi kills. Make it worth while.
BTW...Free? I would not exactly call having to kill x number of Jedi to get a skill free

If you love it, push for these changes. Let's see...100 kills....Vader visits you and gives you a plus 10 Speed mod then chokes you and leaves you for dead for some missions you failed....of course after congratulating you. "Don't fail me now"

This really goes for all professions. But for the BH I came up with an idea that might give you incentive to go after Knights and try solo and stop calling for nerfs.
As a Jedi...yes I am a Knight...I have never called for nerfs on the BH community other than pre CU gank squads. I simply accept that you have certain skills that may or may not kill me. That is par for the course. I chose my template knowing I had weaknesses.
Here was an idea i had for the BH profession that enhances it and does not Nerf it to oblivion.
Badges. Why dont you get badges for kills?
Example of some badges:
Has killed a Knight Solo
Has killed 20 Jedi (BH given an armor repair kit for 10 full total repairs to his armor.)
Has killed 50 Jedi (BHgiven BH piece of armor perhaps a helmet.)
Has killed 75Jedi (BH given +10 Droid Tracking mod tape or one you think would be better and reasonable)
Has earned Vader honor for killing100 Jedi (BH Given +10 Skill tape for weapon accuracy)
Has Killed 150 Jedi (BH given special goggles to see a cloaked Jedi with a chance given to knock the Jedi out of a cloaked state. Make this item non-tradeable.)
Has killed 200 Jedi (BH given a Jet Pack)
Look for ways to enhance your own profession and we all benifit. Look to nerf the other players and we all lose because the Devs are dragging us all down. I always wondered why BH are not given badges for kills....
Now keep in mind that if this idea goes into play there needs to be some equal incentive for Jedi so they dont just take off running because there is nothing init for them to stay and fight.
