Bounty Hunter Archive

maybe he left his best weapon in the bank, didnt have the right food, had his parent or significant other yelling at him, maybe he had to go to the bathroom, maybe...why does it really matter? It doesn't really make him a coward. There could be any number of reasons why he left you there.

but, if a jedi runs away or cloakshe's a coward? this is the point i am trying to get across to you. i have read endless posts calling any jedi smart enough to leave himself an outlet from the fight a coward, newb, ebayer...but when a bh does it, its a stratagy. why is it a double standard with most bh?

A bh named Deenos from the SEA guild comes to my house. I ask if he is looking for me, he says yes, i come outside and he hops on his bike and rides off. I give him a tell i am ready to fight and i get nothing back. Are most respec bh going to be this much of a coward? I dont get it, i did what a true bh would want me to do and nothing happens. What do u real bh think about actions like this?

I hope he puts you down when your afk on the Ryatt trail or if your a full template when your half health ganking people coming Theed. I applaud this guy for making you scratch your head. Keep your enemies confused.

I drop any mission I do not have surprise in.

I drop any mission where the jedi is buffed and unengaged with an NPC creature, MOB or dueling or PvPing

I am not a coward I consider myself a BH.

Hope this helps.

I'd drop a lot of missions if i was BH/CH as well

Oh and somebody said something about a jedi master... ATM, jedi master= full template padawan (no FRS)

If I were an employer and if the bounty hunter I'm paying was cancelling every contract he finds too "easy" for him, I would not keep this employee. Bounty hunting is about satisfying an employeer before having personal enjoyment.

One of my major rules of BHing is NEVER fight a Jedi when they are ready. If I track a Jedi to their house, I don't even get within their Radar range. I don't want them to know I'm after them. If I went to their house, they'd know I'm after them... they'd get all hyped up on food and crap, and make them harder to kill.

So in the book of BH strategy, him riding off into the sunset wasn't exactly a cowardly move. If he was a seasoned BH, he probably rode of and set up shop somewhere else to wait for you to forget about him. If he was a respec, he probably just dropped the mission thinking you'd never leave the house. Either case is a smart move.

I dont consider jedi who run cowards. I consider jedi who stay and fight to be risk takers. Whether that makes them brave or whatever who cares, it is just a video game. Jedi risk losing XP in a BH confrontation why fight. Death means little fora BH other than the chiding that may follow. The real problem is posts like these that are really nothing more than people stroking their egos with regard to making their opponents look weak or cowardly. It comes from both sides, and on this forum there are a lot of BHs that post about how the jedi run from them. It is one thing to vent here about cheap tactics like the LOS bug, the run/cloak/fight gag, spamming startle/disarm, chaining roots, etc, but this post is just meant to make yourself look better by belittling another player on the forums.

so you are saying a jedi that has about 1/4 of his skill points used on jedi skills is greater than mbh? so a jedi just starting to grind at a level to get on the terminals is greater than a mbh? what a noob statement. you have those guys, out gunned, out healed, out armored, the list is endless and you call him a coward because he runs for the same reason you just stated. The obtusness of some of you bh is amazing. so a non full template runs he is a coward not just because he doesnt stand a chance...hmmm....you just stated that a mbh runs because a jedi is stronger.....this seems the same to me...that makes the bh a COWARD! enough said?

mmmeh who cares about the padanoobs
