Top speed isn't affected, but acceleration is. And terrain is never 100% flat, so there is a lot of small desceleration/accelerations, and if you can manage to accelerate and break faster, you will be faster that someone who doesn't even if you have the same top speed

I understand what you're saying. I just think that standstill -top speed happens in a very short amount of time on flat ground and hence slowspeed-topspeed for example would happen in an even shorter time so the gain would be small, unless of course over a long time such as chasing a mark for 4 clicks or more(getting the cumulative effect).
Is it in your opinion worth it?. I had thought going for Ranged Speed and Acc, Vehicular control, melee def,and the survival tree for a little extra terrain neg.

Okay, I been hunting in MO alot since I got jedi... Today I was attacked 4 times by this bounty hunter whom had the ablity to cloak using the jedi ablities. Honestly its very annoying but what I find interesting is each time he came after me he failed...
Keep your whining to the Jedi forums about force cloak. Besides he is a Jedi now, not a real BH..

Ummmm....Everyone has been complaining that Jedi can attack while cloaked. Jedi didn't seem to care.
Now a BH invested the whole 52 points to cloak (including the 24 FS points, which a Jedi would need anyway, so Jedi are only REALLY investing 28 points,) and NOW you come here to complain?
What he said.

a.) You cannot attack while cloaked
b.) You cannot cloak while riding a vehicle
c.) He may have the vehicle control tree
But most of the things you mentioned could not be true....
Actually you are wrong on all of the above.
You can attack while cloaked due to a bug in game. You can also ride a vehicle while cloak due to a bug in game. The Vehicle control tree does nothing with top speed, it's all about acceleration.....to prove my point my friends have that line and I travel at the same speed, it does nothing.

Move Cloak to the Master Box, This will stop this kind of exploit!
Hardly necessary and it won't solve anythingsinceJedi have been known to use these exploits too. Best solution is to fix the actual bugs and make sure it works as intended. I.e. no attacking while cloaked, no ability to wear armor while using it.

The biggiest issues I have with this is he repeatedlywas able to attack me for an extended period of time while he was under cloak. (No I know what cover is.. An I was running away from him cuase he always attacks from behind) When he was attacking no one saw him, but saw the shots. Each time I was followed by the group an they said no one is chasing you why are you taking damage? These people would aslo follow for a good 300m with burst run an this bounty hunter was completely inivisible expect by his shooting.Until this person got onto his speeder then he became visible until he cloaked again.
Secondly, his bark speeder was able to move far faster then my own, I got away from himnumerous times. I had him on target roughtly 200m away, with in 45seconds he was with in 80m of me. I have a bark speeder to... Just curious how that is possible.
This bh.. was rifleman, had jedi cloak, jedi healing skills.
He is so upset over something I have no idea really other then the fact I keep getting away. He told me he will contuie to hunt my character *yes a jedi* Contuie to repeatedly take my mission to grief me until I beg him to stop. Hesaid he didn't care if he was perposly harrassing my character he just wanted to keep killing me till he see's me in 10mil dept. His words...
*Shurgs* HonestlyI do not care for being harrassed it's a very slight annoyance he is comming after me. But if he keeps failing repeatedly over an over again. Wouldn'the get on the terminals? Wouldn't he be a target himself?But he is a jedi, an he is a bounty hunter.. Amusing... Aleast its keeping him from killing weaker players..
To be honest, I told him I was half templated... ^-^
Far form it... In3 more box trainings I will be able to turn the tide an kill him. Master defender is a nice skill.. LS 4... Speed will give me the edge i need.
Anyhow.... I just need info thats why I came here... I am very surpised that the bounty hunter can attack me while still cloaked ancannot be targeted in any way. I spent 3 mins running from him an he was completely invisible completely non-targetible along with a person watching this happening. That was 30 mins ago... Amusing template.. Glad I have enough defender to escape for now. ^-^

You got some stone cahones
Take it somewhere else, bud...
Uh huh, sure. THat's why for a while it was the fad on the jedi boards to make nerf cloak threads. Quite frankly the attacking while cloaked bug is annoying for me. It always seems to happen in pve and those mobs still attack you.
I want it fixed.
