Here is an Idea. I dont know if it has been mentioned. way to many pages for me to catch up on.

Have the Jedi just go on leave. Which means they cant fight cant use force powers cant gain xp while on leave. 15min timer, so if they try to avoid a bounty they will have to wait 15 min. allow bh to enter house.

While jedi are on leave the bounty comes off the boards. But if mission is picked up before jedi goes on leave. Bh will have 15min to find him.


So while a jedi is on leave make it so they cant fight at all, or use force powers to sit in theed all day and show off. But they better watch out if a nuna attacks them. While on leave stay in your house and your safe city, or where ever its safe for you.

If a jedi is chronically house sitting then they are a "weak" mark and you are picking on someone lower than yourself. (lower in fighting abilities that is, no one gets lower than us lowlife bounty hunters) . Seriously, there are plenty of jedi out there who welcome the fight. Some they win, some they lose, but they go on about their business and fight when the fight comes to them. Jedi are no different than any other player in the fact that they wish to have a fun time playing a game they pay money for monthly. To my knowledge it is easier to go force sensitive now, but you couldn't respec into jedi padawan as many respeced into MBH. I'll admit, i did a small ammount of respecing, but I was bh3444 before respec with all the apprentice points needed to go master and halfway to invest 4 when the great respec hit. I used respec to drop the scout and marksman skills i no longer needed to maintain bh and used them to pick up a few more ch skills to master that. But i would like to know if the ppl complaining about house sitters are respeced bh or old school.


Every player needs to have a safe haven. Kinda like a "Highlander"holy ground. Snipers wait for days in the jungle to catch their targets when least expecting, follow your mark, learn their habits, and take em out with craftsmanship. If you're lookin for the quick kill there are npc's out there. Leave the house sitters alone, and find a jedi worthy of the hunt.





They say you should never hit a person with a closed fist, but on occasion it can be hillaroius.

Stop making me lose time and Ill start logging out. Hows that sound? Problem solved.






And that of course really helps BHs to empathise with Jedi. It's that kind of attitude that gets people wanting Jedi kicked from houses.


A fine spokesperson for the Jedi profession.

Well. BH, its not going to happen. You can make this thread as long as you wish. but it will never happen. the farthest it goes is these threads. thats it. its the truth.


however, there does need to be a device that allows for bhs to see if they are in structure or not. from there, you must decide. but that code will add a degree of cpu time being used by the servers aka added overhead and quite possibly cause much more lag.


See if they are in structrue or not. thats the extent. you will not get to kick em out.

3 days is nothing if youtake the hunt seriously. It's hardly enough time to learn the marks habits or decide when to strike. You are essentially forced to attack as soon as it looks like the right time, little oppurtunity to learnt the Jedi's healing patterns, or attack preferences. Luckily most people are extremely repetetive in their actions and you can predict after an hour or two stalking.


3 day decay *and* name removal was overkill. I was quite happy with the removal of names but the decay removedthe RP aspect for a lot of us.


If a Jedi runs is not the issue, they're escaping. If they are decorating their house because they are a player and they like to collect rare items or whatever is not the issue. Going AFK for hoursin a house is the issue.


What about the casual player who gets some time here and there to play? That afk house sitting Jedi is wasting the BH time.

make bountyhunter a jedi like class... not reachable by normal grindin...
then tis bullcrap here wouldnt even extend that long




Personalyly I agree, the Boba Fett style/Jedi killing BH *should* be a counter to Jedi, but that would make them an alpha class also, and as a 'balance' would need to be equal to Jedi.

I'm sure the Jedi would just love that.

Speaking for yourself, you still speak as a Jedi.





But Im not a spokesperson for jedi profession as you suggested. I dont claim to speak for any other player, jedi or not, than for myself. Im sure there are thousands jedi-players that dont think or do as I do. So dont blame them for what I say or do, ok?


What about my point that since Bh's waste my time, I want to waste their time. You dont think thats fair?

I say remove recursive macros as the devs have repeatly stated they are going to. The only people that affects is the afkers. That single action would solve a lot of issues in one go and would have been a much better solution than, for example, all the entertainer nerfs that were intended to remove afk grinding. It wouldnt harm the afk Jedi in any way, just log them out after 15 mins.


The Jedi decorating his house or chatting to friends is not affected in any way and the Ryatt trails is no longer the place to rapidly level a Jedi for sale on e-bay (and dont laugh, just do a search - e-bay Jedi and credits are cottage industries now).

You are a Jedi, you speak on Jedi issues, people will associate what you say with Jedi. As this is a BH forum what you say will be associated with 'Jedi'.Think before you speak.


No, because deliberately trying to waste a BH time is simply griefing, BH killing Jedi is part of the game, or don't *you* think thats fair?


And the answer to that will simply bring up again an argument that has been here a million times before.
