instead of flamming each other left and right why not get both communities together and try to figure out a logical solution that both groups could submit to the dev and maybe having bothprofs united would get us all a better chance of fixing this game.

Exactly, everyone agree there are too many jedi and bhs. This issue will kill the game if it is not resolved soon, and with the discussion here i fear it may already be too late. We need to work together to create a plan which pleases both sides.

My feelings are that if there are less jedi, there will also be less bhs. Now, how do we come up with a plan that doesn't outrage the whole jedi community which would destroy the game. That is the purpose of this thread. To come up with ideas to solve the problem we have on our hands. That is why we need some feedback on what jedi would do to fix this problem.

Alright, to fix this problem imo:Remember this is not to be construed in anyway possible but for the sake of this thread.

1. Make Lightsabers alittle more poweful. yeah ok they are already powerful enough but for this thread ill go out on a lim and say more

2. The FC on Heal and stuff could be lower, make the heal lose 1 second Cool down timer

3. Make jedi skills cost more, therefor making it worth to grind

4. Make it a minimum of 5-6 months of normal non FS play. then you can be FS via badges and whatnot

5. LS block upped to 50% at master. 25% is lame

6. Make jedi not need defender.

BH fixes

1. Add more Defense. Mabye add better attacks to the proff too

2. Adv Critcial Shot hits for more dmg and more criticals

3. like you said earlier. 1 for a padawan, 2 for a knight, 3 for a master and whatnot

4. Add a root to Bh that way you dont have to pick up xxx3 Pistoleer for Root

5. Mabye Bh could access higher energy resis armor that other profs cant.

6. make the BH grind similar to the jedi grind. but different.

All I have to say is . . . wow. This is by far the best plan I have seen to solve nearly all of the BH/Jedi problems. It is amazingly well-thought out, and I salute you for that, Caelo.

On the BH side, this solves:

1) Not being able to get a Jedi mission because the Jedi's friend/alt is holding it

2) Their complaints that "xp loss is not enough." (which I agree with)

3) Knowing whether their target is online or not, could possibly add faction. (although supposedly this will be fixed in pub 20 . . .?)

. . . to name a few. I know I haven't touched all of them.

On the Jedi side, this solves:

1) Griefing - you can't get the Jedi's mission mulitple times in a row over a few days.

2) Ganking a low-level Paddy, or ganking in general.

3) Allows you to hunt with other Jedi without gaining vis. I agree with you, Caelo, Jedi should stick together. SOE has said that the new combat system is based on grouping, which just cripples Jedi. They should be able to group hunt without gaining vis if they want to. If you are a Jedi who likes to PvP, just do what you always do: sit in Theed/Coronet with your Jedi powers macros running, equip your LS, and wait.

Otherwise, it "hurts" Jedi in that it will now take them longer to become Jedi, which I don't even consider a hurt to Jedi. And it makes them more rare without killing them off completely. Plus, both Jedi and BHs have 50% chance of beating the other . . . assuming neither are eBayed.

By the way, here's me not flaming you. Good job, and please, for the love of God and all that's holy, pick up an application to become a dev.
