How about Bounty Hunter Defenses? or Offense? I just saw a Master Bounty Hunter get killed by a Sniper. Is this normal?

I haven't taken any missions since the patch, but I was on Dantooine at the Agro Outpost and saw 3 different BH Marks spaw while I was waiting on the Shuttle. They all spawned at the same place with in seconds of each other, different names.. and then attackedme


The BH's whos missions these were arrived shortly afterwards, as I was picking my busted carcass up off the ground.


So NO doesn't look they fix'd the problem with Marks attacking people, or it was just the Systems way ofletting me know I am still it's B10tch.





This sounds like a faction "problem". The marks probably all were of a faction you have -5000 in (from BH missions probably). Yellow (on the radar) marks will aggro you just like any other faction members (except Rebel and Imp, ironically), if you have less than -3000 faction with them...

Only did 5 investigation II missions yesterday, and the 3 that were on endor ALL were "no marks". It could be noted that each mark was within 20m of an aggro creature's lair. Perhaps that has something to do with it?

I did about 6 NPC missions last night, 2 of them nothing at waypoint. Launching another arakyd droid (which usually updated the waypoint) just put waypoint at same location. And target could not be found anywhere around the area. All missions had been run out of kaadara. The no shows were on Lok and Talus and were both around 4000m from the starports and no where near water.


I had this on few missions before the patch, so don't think this is just due to the patch.


The one Bug I get now that I never had before the patch is the slow seeker droid updates.


At invest 3 was about 20 seconds


At master before patch was about 80 seconds (slower but usable).


At master after patch is around 2 to 6 minutes. But update timeseems very random and have usually got to the waypoint before the first update. Not sure if this could be causing the problem of waypoints not updating.

I thought about that too MuLepton, but I thought they were going to fix it back to the way it was before, where the BH mission Mark was White on your screen if you were not the BH doing the mission. So it would keep the Mark from being attacked or attacking anyone regardless of Faction.


I think that is what is cuasing them to attack most of the time anyway.. bad faction, but they should set them to be the way they were before. White Dot on your screen if your not the holder of the mission and Yellow Dot on your screen if your the BH with the mission.


At least thats what I thought they were fixing. If so.. it's not, if not.. then I haven't a clue what they were fixing.

I got Investigation 3 ..So far I have had 1 succesful mission out of 5..Marks are all invis to me...I stand at the Waypoint my driod says he is at, nothing there. I launch another driod and stay in the same location and get the same waypoint returned where im standing..nothing there. Abort mission . Over and Over and Over. 432 exp for 3 hours worth of playing time is pure crap. Either fix these missions or raise the exp to 1k each completed mission. The reward for the amount of time and credits spent is worthless..oh yeah speaking of credits the 22k missions keep me at the same amount of cash due to all the shuttles to borked mission locations.

I took a mission in Kaadara, got a pc name and went to use the probe droid...nothing. Seeker....nothing. Not even the player is online message when he was though cause I added him to my friends list. Went to Dearic, Talus and the same problem happened. Went to Coronet and then onto Bela Vistal for the bio sig but yet again, same issue. Took an npc quest and it worked fine although a couple people in my guild were complaining cause the marks were white instead of red/yellow (attackable) I just got MBH tuesday with the intention on hunting jedi but now it seems hopeless. Just another profession to get a goofy badge to I think cause this profession seems more broken than Carbineer now.

I have read several threads on this. So, please give me the specifics; planet, proximity to town, whether ranger tracking was used etc., so I can take the info to the devs.

Ive done about 5 since the patch. One was an empty waypoint once he was finally tracked down. I did ranger areatrack and it said that he was 2m away from me....but he was invisible and unattackable. I've had two that were stick inside the walls of spaceports on yavin. This is the 4th time that has happened
