Bounty Hunter Archive
Thread: Whats the point if all the jedi stop playing?
Player bounty's would be ALOTmorefunI agree. I wouldn't mine at all if jedi were taking out of the game. As it stands they get alot more then us. A second toon, and all those nice jedi powers and buffs. While jedi are getting nerfed its not like its the end of the world they are still stronger then almost all normal templates. I been playing a long time and do I get a second toon? No.....seems SOE thinks jedi should only.
While they agrue that, "OH I it took me a long time to be jedi, and I earned it!". That is still not a good reason..... its just too easy to become one now that goes right out the window. They get more then normal vetsjust for turning jedi. I think that a second toon should be a vet reward, not just for somebody with ALOT of time on thier hands for grinding. Its not like it will overload the sever if vets get a second toon....we can only log in one at a time. As it stands now the end game for this MMORPG is going jedi or Bounty hunter...which also sucks. That needs to change also. It isfun to hunt jedi, howeverI would love other player bountys.
Grained not everyone likes to PvP but, smugglers are bad guys also. I know some that would love to get hunted. With the new Ranger revamp they could also get placed bounties on them since they are "spys, and recon fighters". They could make smugglers a bit stronger to at least stand up to bounty hunters. These are just some ideas, while jedi keep pouring in I don't see jedi going to get stronger then they are now. Moreplayer professionsto hunt would take a littlepressure off the jedi at least.

Dunno about that. Plenty of other people BH's could hunt besides Jedi (Rebels, Smugglers,etc.). But yeah, if SOE is trying to thin the numbers this has got to be the clusiest way to go about it.

Its my belief that the Devs find themselves in the situation of having been stupid and allowing 1/3 if not 1/2 of all the players to be Jedi, which is completely ridiculous according to this games time period. That being the case, the only way they can reduce this number is to nerf Jedi slowly but surely, and HOPE that instead of canceling, people will take up easier to get proffessions that are more powerful and get back to the GCW. It makes sense in a twisted way, and its really the only solution to thinning out the numbers of Jedi(if that is indeed what they want to do), as they cant just delete people's characters.

That may very well be true, but it may turn around and bite them in the ass. People that are long term vets are quitting, and people that have 2 and more accounts are quitting. This publish sucks (and if you think that BH'ers won't eventually get nerfed from this you are delusional), and if that's what they are trying to do, then they truly are stupid to think this is the way to go about it. So they honestly think that I would give up my Jedi that I took so long to grind and get like I want to take on another profession just because they have screwed up the profession. I'd cancel my account before I'd do that, and the other 2 accounts I have too, and go to another game not owned by SOE. If I cancel I sure as hell am not giving SOE any more money,and I'm sure others feel that way too. *shakeshead* Didn't thier mommies ever teach them 2 wrongs don't make a right? You don't fix something by breaking it more.
Hey, dont disagree with you there, but how else can they remove the ridiculous amount of Jedi? There really is no good way to be honest.

It just amazes me that when I go over to Theed I see endless Jedi PvPing. For me itwould be nice to participate in that, but for all the visibility you gain it is not worth it to me. At this point the only thing Jedi can do is stay in hiding and do whatever it takes to stay off the terminal, so they will not be hunted.That is my 2 cents and I have spoken my peace here.
You would be a worthy prey im sure. Elusive and prob hard to get in a Position to strike. /tiphat to you.

BH is the most played proffession in the game...
you gotta be kidding me with that last comment, there are just as many bh as jedi, specially with all you respec n00bs. The thing i dont get is there is so many flavor of the month professions that soe has created, such as bh, rifleman till they nerfed the loots, etc....that there are always too many of one profession when theres a FOTM proff. The thing is, who the hell cares if theres "too many of one profession" . Does this really really bother people, and if so, why? Why cant people just play the game and have fun, and the answer to this is because of stupid ppl whining about things that shouldnt concern them, then the damn devs who listen to this crap and try to do something about it. This game has turned into a big joke.

Yes a game without jedis is lame. Right now the rate of jedi to non jedi is rediculous to. Almost half of them are cocky. I had one jedi that said quote "i would kill you, but it wouldlower my combat rateing."I just started playing again and a year ago pre cu the rate of jedis to non-jedis was great. Personally i think the devs are trying to turn jedis into a regular profession. Its just because so theres so many that they are getting nerfed. and debuffs,snares, some with bh your unless knight+ jedi a beating at chance no stand professions that.Regular hit they when money most the has who first healing mlightsaber mdef to get can justwho theres Now on. build possiblitys many so where there because wasfun Pvp quadrupled. jedispopulation before begreat used game This anyways. doing devs be>
Jedis are just to enjoyable to play. The thought of weilding a lightsaber turns most people on. While the few and the proud bhs try to keep the game in balance.
