Thread: Jedi keep talking about the risk....I THINK I figured it out..
AFK grinding on kashyyyk cant be blamed on the jedi. the blame should lie with the developers on this one.
Since the CU. new jedi know that if they wanted to grind xp then the WILL be on the terminals, most have had a choice. either grind in groups and be alert for when a BH shows up and gain a moderate ammount of experience. or go to kashyyyk and afk grind. As is human nature, many people have chosen the easy path and gone to kashyyyk.
The combat upgrade made group hunting the only viable option of gaining experience, however the old visibility rules are still in place.

Right....and THAT'S what i should tell the cops next time I get pulled over in my Dodge Viper SRT-10 going 180 in a 45?
It's NOT my fault...it's the Dodge engineers who made the car that "allowed" me to go too fast...blame them. Yeah, this sounds like the same old microwave, lightspeed, fast food, internet, play station, gotta-have-it-now, it's-not-my-fault-blame-my-parnets-on-the-next-Oprah attitude.
Honor is doing the RIGHT thing...even when no one is around to witness it...although, it IS a video game. I really don't think "honor" should be pulled into a video game>
about 2/3 of the jedi in the trail on my server are afk grinders at any given point....its pretty good cash, for now.

QFE
There are alot of AFKers out there, but not near as many as what some jedi-haters would have you believe.
And I really don't understand those people. They say "You knew the grind was gonna be hard, if you don't like it play KOTOR" and yet complain about all the Jedi.
Sooo..."You knew there were gonna be jedi, if you don't like it, play WOW"
Sheesh.

That's not Honor, that's called Ethics. And umm, Jedi aren't the only profession AFK grinding. Did we forget about Entertainers? Or any other combat class that just sits outside a city killing stuff. People just like to blame Jedi because they feel hatred towards the Jedi for some reason.
Why don't you make a video and show all the other classes that AFK grind?
That video was so Michael Moore, I give it 2 thumbs down.
Im not mutch on my jedi atm cause of the swarm of jedi that excists now, its insane. 99% of the PvP'ers are jedi, im getting sick of it. And i hope they do somthing, the faster the better.
And well risk after CU i see to be quite small, compared to before atleast, and not near as mutch workto get to finnished temp...
BH's go use the last week of the named jedi missions well i say...im a bit sad that they are taking it away...

I'm still just curious about these "risk" Jedi keep using as a justification for being so powerful.
"So powerful"? How exactly?
I just watched as a full template Jedi died after a five minute fight with some BH. In that time he landed about half a dozen hits. Hmm sounds very overpowered.
Chained delays meant he might as well have been an artisan for all the good being a Jedi did. Of course, as you don't understand how to play your class you will claim it's impossible and that no one can kill full template Jedi.
Seriously, what do you get out of your perpetual moaning? If fighting Jedi causes you so much anguish, stick to NPC bounties and leave the rest of us in peace. You contribute nothing to this board but endless whining and displays of your inadaquecy as a BH.
On topic, why do you particularly stigmatise Jedi for AFK grinding yet don't have a word to say about other classes doing the same? You can kill the AFK Jedi, as a BH I can't go and kill the BH or rifleman doing the same. However either of those people could use those skills gained by AFK macro'ing to kill me on the battlefield.
You are silent on it because you have an irrational hatred of Jedi players. Not the characters, but the players themselves. It's something akin to either racism or a form of insanity, you decide. Both are irrational thought processes based on unsubstantiated prejudices. Boy do you have those in abundance ...

VERY quickly....go back and look at the video...how many NON-JEDI professions do you see grinding AFK?
Thanks for playing/.

So if I make a video of the wookiee grind spot that shows no Jedi grinding, that means no Jedi ever grinds there?
Thanks for playing, right back at you. You have no case but your irrational hatred of other players. Excuse us if we don't really care.

lol keep your mouth shut if you don't know what you're talking about k nub? originally, when a lot of us bought this game, jedi were going to be rare and extremely difficult to level to the top. they didn't say "anyone who isn't very good at pvp and needs a bit of an advantage will be allowed to easily obtain a jedi knight and then we'll be doing everything in our power to ensure that said knight is undefeatable." the reason people tell you to go play kotor is because you either "just wanted to play a jedi", "there was nothing left for you to do in the game" or you obviously don't like losing(most people don't lose against the ai of video games very often, so people with fragile egos like yourself feel like they've accomplished something in a video game when they defeat computer controlled opponents), so by playing kotor you could easily remedy your problem without having to know what its like to lose.
