Bounty Hunter Archive

So...how ARE you going to know who u are hunting on Kash? There are tons of Jedi and u have a mission for one of them... How do u know which it is if u don't know the name? Oh yeah, and no WP from ur seeker droids.

I highly doubt most of this idea will ever make it to live. I can understand online status, but removing the name and bounty price totally takes away from the Bh experience.. This is what I mean.... I wouldnt accept a job from anyone without knowing who Im dealing with or knowing how much it pays...........................................

itsragtime...you comment is the exact reason this is going in. when u have the ability to pick and choose, you know you will take the 40 to 180k missions. this practice of just selectivly picking jedi is why you are getting this. you cant blame this terminal adjustment on jedi. this time the jedi are the ends to the means, not the means to the end.

tell me the point of bhs hunting jedi other than to decrease the population...there is none. SOE realized longagothat they have too many jedi in the game and they're not going to just take jedi away from people, so they implemented bounties right after the first few jedi came onto the servers. There used to be perma death,it wasn't easily controlled so it was taken out.

why should i go after a knight that i know will either a) kick my ass or b) run away when i can kill a paddy with ease. and i can run 2 or 3 100k mishs in the time it would take to run a 240kish mish.Knights are best ganked, and its more of a trophy thing, than a money thing.

and to repeat what other people have said, im not going to accept a bounty on someone when i dont know who they are, if they are on or not and how much i will be making on it. this will never go live cause we all know Tanks will never let it happen

For all BHs sake I hope you are right!

The idea is asinine. A BH takes a bounty on a mark. Not knowing any information on your mark is suicide and stupid. What's the work around for Kash going to be?

If this is even remotely true it's a lazy quick fix implemented by an incompetent staff. The problem lies with visibility and that Jedi Factory called Kashyyyk.

The original poster is TROLLING. The only mention of anonymizing Jedi missions came from fanfest where the Devs said they were "considering" it as an option to get Jedi vs. BH encounters one on one.

Yeah....don't feed him or bother responding. He is usually misinformed and is so caustic hegets flamed by Jedi on the Jedi boards even though he claims to be one himself.

I read the forums everyday for updates, and upcoming changes, Publishes, ect. An I havnt seen anything where it says that this is going to be implemented in Publish 20.

It is true that the idea has been tossed around at a few meetings, and it even made it to the forums. But there has been no decision wether to Implement this or not.

This won't happen, period. If by some slim chance it does, the BH Profession as we all know it is dead.

Get a hold of a TRE reader. Patch 18 already had some of the files for the new BH system in it. They are not complete yet, but there were penalties for not completing the mission within the deadline and mission failure.

You wanted Jedi weaker, I guess it came with a price.

from what i gathered its supposed to be pub 20 or very close to it. as a jedii am looking forward to it. i am so highly templated that i scream pick me pick me when i see a bh. i love a good fight win or loose. and i know alot of jedi, both fully templeted and not, are looking forward to this. I wish that they would take it a bit further and instead of you guys having to grind low level missions all the time till investigation 3 x x x, they would let all bh from novice up have a random shot at live fire with jedi. would be a great learning tool for both sides.

Then you won't get many visitors, because w/o your name on the mission they won't know who they're hunting.
