BH has nothing to do with jedi xp, if the BHsintent for hunting jedi is to make that player lose xp then blatant griefing, before it is argued otherwise, yes intent is very important, if you set out to be a BH with the idea that your going to make a jedi lose xp then youve got some growing up to do. as a jedi all i have to say is bring it
I agree but the developers disagree. That's why they are going to drop the prereqs so that more people can hunt you down and make your life hard through experience debt. BH is the control to Jedi, and it appears to be the only reason we are even getting looked at right now.
As for me I have no desire to bring it to you. You can go play with the other Jedi from now on.
some of you Bounty Hunters are lol the way you change your tune.
Break out those profession calculators comrades !

Ok.... I'm very happy that BH's are getting this change made for them; I really really am happy about it from a purely BH point of view.
But what about the rest of the game? Isn't this going to be a bit imbalancing? Already a Master Pistoleer with BH Pistols can be a powerful force, but now you've give players the ability to make a Master Pistoleer with BH Pistols and Smuggler Dirty Fighting, and even that only takes up 222 skill points! Super speed, great accuracy, dodge, and both Eyeshot AND LastDitch?!? That's just craziness.
Again, this is a good change for BHs, but is it really wise to put this in before the CB? This will allow for an already powerful template to become even stronger.
God...it hasn't even been put in game yet...and already someone is crying nerf...GO AWAY TROLL.

... There are many many things that we can do to help out your profession, given time.
Some of the things will be addressed bythe ol' "Combat Balance" mantra ... but not soon enough for you I am sure.
Other things are proving VERY difficult for us to track down. The 0 0 0 waypoint issue is quite a bear andwe are putting in still more logging tomorrow, but again, not soon enough for you I am sure.
The Jedi XP issue is requiring programming time which we don't have. We are trying to work it in, but again not soon enough for you.
We want to help out your profession as soon as possible. So that being said, as soon as we can get it through test ...
We are going to remove the Trapping, Hunting, and Survival Scout lines from the Bounty Hunter prerequisites.
This should give you and additional 48 skill points to add to the 33 you had left over for a total of 81 additional point to spend as you please.
This is something that we have been considering for a long time, and wanted to do as part of the CB, but we need you to be as effective as possible against Jedi as soon as possible. This is a start.
Your other issues are known, and in varying stages of development, but we want you to know that things are going to get better. Hopefully rapidly.
This change will be hitting Test Center tomorrow afternoon, and should be Live by Friday.

Are you TRYING to be a smart-ass? You act like we are the cause!!! HOW Fvckin dare you act like WE ARE THE CAUSE!!! You make it sound like WE have control of the profession!!! "Not soon enough for us?!?" This profession has been FUBAR for far too long, and YOU ACT like its OUR fault?!? You promise fixes...say we should be able to "control the Jedi population", and we COMPLAIN when you don't follow through on your promises, and then you throw it back in our faces by this **edit**ty ass response?! You don't expect people to complain when you ignor the eintire profession publish after publish?!
Get a clue man-
oh, and i'd rather be able to make a tent than have the BH profession nerfed to all hell when you figure out this band-aid wont hold.
*Hands Annius a cookie*...shh. Freaking out doesn't solve anything. WE understand, your perceptions and frustrations...and how JustG's response could seem to be sarcastic...but he isn't. They are bumping up something they were going to do in the combat balance...you know the one that isn't happening for like 4 to 5 months from now...to...FRIDAY...so cut them some slack in that regard. I am still pissed about the Jedi xp "oops" response...but at least they are giving us a cookie with our roofie as they screw us...so...be happy about that. Be more tactful, and less **edit** and you will see better results...although I do admit that **edit** does help at times so...
/eats cookie
Sorry I freaked out. The way he worded the "but again not soon enough for you". really pissed me off. And of course they deleted my post.

Once again I state. This change will happen, the only solution I can see is Moving Jedi Hunting to MBH. This will remove the worries of BH 3000 and prof x issues. SUch as master CM + BH 3000
I agree. Hunting Jedi should remain a unique part of being a Bounty Hunter. With this change, the only way to preserve this uniqueness is to move Jedi hunting from Investigations 3 to Master Bounty Hunter.

Amost EVERY post from the BH'rs has been FIX ME NOW! FIX ME NOW!
If you guys constantlyact like awhiny little brat, then they are gona treat you like one.
If you dont like being treated this way, then you BHrs might want to act a little more mature in your posts to the Devs, instead of flameing and trolling if you dont get your every liitle wish attended IMMEDIATLY.

Monroe you are naive. Why do you think MBH exist? Its to kill jedi. We want them to lose xp. Call it griefing if you like, but the simple fact is its not nearly as much fun as killing them with perma death would have been! We dont get money atm so what other point is there.
I repeat.
WE ONLY GET 15K ATM WHAT OTHER POINT IS THERE TO KILLING THEM. EVEN IF ITS FOR THE JOY OF KILLING JEDI, AND NOT TO HAVE THEM LOSE EXP THEN YOU WOULD CALL IT GRIEFING.
If we were doing it for the money we would be stupid. Watching you guys die is what brings me back everday.
...Master BOUNTY Hunters exist to bring in the Bounty moron...it just so happens Jedi are the only, er WERE the only Bounties worth collecting on. After the Smuggler Revamp, there will be more Bounties out there...
your last statement IS a griefing statement whether you admit it or not. You hunt them purely for the joy of watching them lose xp...THAT is not what Master Bounty Hunter is about....get a clue...

With requiring mbh for hunting jedi you first remove the risk of having CM as bh. Im scared of that.
Secondit helps us for the moment. I know many of you are saying that you would rather wait until the combat rebalance. If we wait that long there will betoo many jedi at too high level for us to stop. This will aid in killing them now!
It really isn't our problem that there will be to many Jedi at higher level to stop. Personally I think we should go on strike and not hunt a single Jedi until they add some real content for BH. The only reason they are opening it up is because of Jedi, it has nothing to do with us. End result is if we are able to mix and match more that means our skills will get nerfed in combat rebalance because to many templates without investigation will be using our skill set. And I mean by nerf is that it is very unlikely you will be seeing anyone able to template defense and accuracy over the 100+ mark.
