A good great Bounty Hunter will stop you from running or stalk you till they win. As for paying the BH off. That is a just anohter tactic.


If you want to win against a good MCM, I have seen the power of a great Master Powers templated Jedi in battle. It's like "Rock, Paper, Sissors". Some templates win agains some, some loose aginst some.


Or we can say, I am rock, sissorsis ok, but paper needs to be balanced...... (paraphrased from someone's sig).

I guess the resolution (truly) to my statement lies in the answer to the fact....does


a MBH/MCM really need to put in that investment to beat me or not? If he does...


I guess I could live with it...because I hear MP really does do bad things to them...


but if they don't need that investment...thenI disagree that 2 players of equal


ability and skill, with inequal investment in the game that the less invested can beat


me without too much trouble....

RawNemesis, I could not agree with more.


But, I also can not leve a debate alone, sorry, its a bug. The only thing I will leave you with is this: Your last post mentions two players of equal ability and skill...... we will never know if someone has gained inteligence above us or not. It is far to easy to play it off as if they have an unfair advantage in strength or equipment than to say they may have played a smarter game.....







Blazeholiday, thank you.

And actually...the debate isn't saying that highly invested BHs shouldn't be able to kill us...but do you truly HAVE to be that invested to kill a full template as MCM/MBH








As I see it. Our debate has been brought down to two qeustions. One in debate, one a matter of "why" or "when".


When will Jedi loot be fixed? Why was it nerfed?


When is up to the develompment team. Why, well that comes with a lengthy explination. Tiggs has a post aroudn here somewere. Most do not want the why, they just want the when, so it was surpressed. Let me explain it as I understand it. The loot is generated randomly with set amount of filters. First the sytem determins whatMOB can generate what loot. Among many other filters the "quality" of the loot is based on the "level" of the MOB. Pre-cu, the Ancient Krayt Draggon was Level 332. Now, Post-CU, the Ancient Krayte is "CL" 85+. No longer close to a Level 332. Some Picket (the most used for EX grinding MOB) is "CL" 80+. The problem is that the sytem now sees all Elite MOBS as a lower level MOB. The quality of loot can no longe be generated. If the numbers were changed, then 'ALL' MOBs would drop the best loot. We would no longer have rare loot. Everyone would have the best. THIS DOES NEED TO BE FIXED. Yet, it is not an easy fix.


Can the MCM take a full temp Jedi without the use of better than average equipment?


Not such an easy question to answer. The shourt answer would be, Yes.... and no. We would first have to ask, What template? Most support role templates would be less dificult to defeat. A PvP seasoned Jedi with above average equpment (BE Clothing and an eceptional sabor) would not be taken unless he/she/it made more mistakes in the long drawn out battle than the MCM did. As pointed out before. A 1.5 times advantage over a class does not take into acount the equipment and skill. It only facters in the abilities.
