2) Name is only given with SEEKER droid use, not Arakyd Probe Droid use. Therefore, you must be on the same planet as the Jedi before you get a name.
Is this for sure how it works? Names will not be returned by seekers if the jedi is not on that planet? Can any BH's on TC confirm this? Otherwise, the other poster was correct, nothing has changed except you need to get a biosig first.
Yes, I have verified this on TC. You must use a seeker droid using the 'seek' option (formerly find, not find and track). If your mark is on Kashyyyk there is no way to get a name.

Except that all it does on TC is say 'too many lifeforms'. You still don't get a name.

Well technically seeker droids CAN be used on Kashyyyk, they just don't give you a possition on your target. You can however send them out and they return with a message saying that there are too many life forces on the planet to pinpoint the possition. I figure when it comes back with this message it will say, "There are too many life forms to pinpoint "jedi name here" exact possition. This is a very good fix imo.

Hmm, well record that as a bug, maybe they will fix it. I still think they should make Kash a loot only planet that doesn't offer xp, that would be a perfect fix for everyone.

Congrats guys. It almost seems like the cancellations they had from the CU prompted them to listen to the players.......probably not though.

There's a ropeadope going on here. First they completely remove the name, then throw a bone back by putting the names on the seekers. If they first did the names-on-seekers there'd still be an outcry, but doing it this way it now looks like they're making some grand concession.
