there will never be a reason to fight. it is all up to the jedi. if he doesnt want to fight then you cant make him. you could make it so if i kill you i would get all the xp that i would have lost and made it positive with the mission payout i still would be iffy(depends on what mood im in i.e. pvp, hunting.....

2-3 days is too long. With that kind of reward people would be inclined to abuse it more. A simple 6 hour (or so) would make it worth-while to the Jedi, yet not to the point it would be worth the time to abuse it.

I don't really care either way lol, I fight to the death (1 exception since I got jedi, pub10, because I wanted to log and go to bed). Thats part of it to me.

All in all I think its a good idea, but I'm also for faction TEFs and PvE XP loss on jedi again /shrug.

Let's say we give the Jedi scum a better reason to fight us instead of running. A lot of their ideas are crackpot (i.e. money, XP, BH XP loss, permadeath for BHs). But I think it would be reasonable for us to offer them this:


If they kill us, then their vis is removed for a certain amount of time, maybe around 2-3 days.


What you think?





or we could insult them and that would give them a reason to fight

Every 10 bounty hunter kills the jedi is rewarded with a lightsabre pearl or crystal, this could easily be implemented, and maybe the tempatation of getting a good tune would bring them to fight more

I do have both a MBH and a Jedi agree the time off is a good idea but would be abused...I think somthing as simple as giving Jedi a status badge or somthing by surviving "x" amount of bounty hunters would be enough make it like a status thing. You see it bios all the time on Jedi I am 45-3 vs BH's blaa blaa you all suck noobs blaaa blaaa. This way when you examine the jedi you can see his/her record or make a rating just for Jedi and BH fights maybe ( like PvP rating but just for BH vs Jedi fights )

Just get rid of exp loss, it was implemented so that Jedi would not be farmed for credits, and now that names are off the terms, it wont happen.


Doing this, horever, would easily be exploited. The mark would just say something like, I'll give you 300K if you let me kill you.. and most BHers will do that.

I think xp loss is used now as a grinding buffer. keeps you (or is supposed to) from waving your LS in public. Mabey just tone it down though by about 50% and then there would be MUCH less of a reason to run.

./agreed I like a fight with a BH, but sometimes I get annoyed with them. I especially favor the BH's who come to the DWB while im in the mines, and expect me to come out and fight. The endless tells cussing me out because they forgot to use their head before traveling 5km outside the smugglers outpost for a dead-end mark.


Heres a Proposal, how about for every BH kill, Jediget a token. Each kill will give jedi a token worth 1 hour of no terminal time. That way if the Jedi has something important to do during a certain time, and doesnt want to be bothered they can just use one of their hour token. I dunno sounds kinda cheesy, but thought I'd throw it out. Might tempt some Jedi to fight, so they can have a few free hours here and there to do stuff without looking over their shoulder.

How about if we beat a BH their heads fall off and they come out in spots and rashes?

Give me something worthwhile for enforceing me to be a BH's content.

Whats important to a person who plays a jedi? The same as every one else. Money. " You have looted the corpes of "Insert name" 100k credits

or simpler if a jedi kills a BH he gets the mission payout... not from the BH's bank account cause BH also dont get money from the jedi.. That wouldn't be fair. But we could get it from the BH guild for some reason..... For example for eliminating a BH who wasn't worthy of the guild....... Or if the BH is imperial and the Jedi rebel we could get it from the allience for eliminating a known imperial BH. stuff like that..
