FYI, I've watched BH sit in there too, don't get too high and mighty about it.


It's not the class, it's the player.

Yes, so now everyone get on the CSR report band wagon - report the jedi who rest there between sets of wookiees or who log their cause it's safe and easy. report them all. LOL. People wonder why BH think kashyyykain is ruining the pvp aspect of their profession and a lot of the fun of the game.

You will not hear me.

Thought I'd throw out a bit of irony here to lighten the mood.



You always hear about jedi running to the LoS bugged spot to avoid a bounty. This week I had my 2nd bounty hunter run to that same spot to avoid being downed by my saber.



I figure I'd throw in with the "Fix that LOS bug!" crowd.

Read my post further up in this thread - I said BHs use the same exploit when fighting Jedi and the fight doesnt turn out to their favor, or to lose aggro from the NPCs chasing them burstrunning down the trail.

My template currently is LS 0200 / Healer 2000 / Enhancer 0002 / Novice Defender / Master Rifleman / Pistoleer 0034 - to answer your thinking of me being a BH. I have an MBH badge in my bio, though.

LOS = Line of Sight
CSR = Customer Service Representative

Ok, can someone explain to me how to contact a CSR???.. Keep in mind I'm on Bria.. What is our CSR's name?
If you create a ticket, it can take days to answer. Launchpad chat csr never help..




I dont think a CSR gets assigned to a specific server.
Harassment ticket would be one option, but it will take some time before anybody even reads the ticket you file.
Another option is CSR Live Chat, should be able to get into that from your launchpad. If you find a nice CSR, he might jump into the game to witness it in person. There have been reports of CSRs warping exploiting Jedi into the DWB or making them follow the CSR toon and walking them out of the LoS restricted area.

Couple things you should know


#1 Most CSRs, dont care about that LOS thing, you got a nice one

#2 That /duel thing does nothing whatsoever, they can still /duel you, however you cannot /duel back, that is it, doesnt help them at all, just lets them think it does.



You accused me of! you accused me of!

To make it painfully clear - REPORT ANYONE WHO STANDS IN THE LOS SPOTS.They are exploiting if they walk over there with agro and quit. They are exploiting if they go there to go afk and go potty. Theyexploited if they log on there. Report them if they are a CL1 artisan or a CL80 BH-Jedi afk grinder. Just report them all and let SoE sort it out.


As for BH death on Kash? LOL - who cares. You don't get decay on kash. no insurance cost. I am fairly sure all your wounds and battlefatigue get healed on top of that. Maybe BH pride will be hurt a little. Get over it, learn from the experience and maybe next time you can get a nice lamp made from your jedi mark.


Although, carefull reading of the OP doesn't prove anything about a CSR warning a jedi or anything. It's hear say. Not 'proof'. What should be obvious is it's an exploitable bug.

Would you care to test out a 400 year old sword to see if it's decayed to condition 0? All the prior testers have no comment. Perhaps a gun which was used in WW I and still fires with high accuracy upto 1km?

If that doesn't get you, then start reading current military specifications for combat equipment.

what? are you saying if a Jedi /duel s a BH, that has his mission, does nothing? they just guess? It tells the Jedi that you can duel soandso because they are attacking, meaning they are attacking the Jedi. something like that

I don't know if I'd go that far. A disturbing amountof terrain on Kashyyk is bugged this way - its not just bridges. A person could suddenly have to go AFK due to a RL emergency and end up being reported for innocent behavior.


Lets not start yet another witch hunt just yet.

Nope, if they cannot attack the target they dont get the message, only people that get that message are those that can allready openly attack the other. IE, if you /duel your mark it'll give you that message. Have you seen when they cancel the challenge? They wouldnt be able to do that unless they succesfully initiated a /duel challenge.
