The 1.5 is applicable to COMPLETED TEMPLATES not padawans. Or at least that's how it's supposed to be.

They should keep it true to the star wars universe... Bounty hunters should be able to hunt in packs. I dont know how Jedi players get their names onto the terminals but there should be some way for Jedi to keep their identity concled. For those who dont keep their identity concealed then hey its their own fault that a team of BH have hunted and killed them. It only makes sense to the time that the game is taking place. Jedi were hunted and killed at this time thus any jedi who makes it known he or she is a jedi should be hunted and killed.
This may not sound fair but jedi shouldnt just be running out in the open. I dont care if they are made powerful enough to take on several BH at one time. It would make sense Jedi mastersarent supposed to be easy prey.

I will stay BH. I do the vast majority of my hunting solo, anyway. Sure, I do enjoy occasionally going with one friend, but I won't mind having to do everything solo. By the way, I don't know how many full-template jedi you guys have attempted to kill solo, but you do find the occasional mark that either 1) Has absolutely no clue how to play his character 2) Has a far less than optimal template or 3) Is in a very vulnrable position. I do die the vast majority of the time I fight full template jedi, but that doesn't mean that it isn't fun

If I was a BH pre-CU, back when we were the joke of the ranged professions...then why would I drop it now? MBH to the end.

We are not really 1.5x stronger as every BH like to say, due to many nerfs. And BHs have got upgrades. And besides, why bother about it, since you BHs are 1.5x stronger then the novice jedi you are usually taking on. And you also got the suprise on your side. Thats part of why they thinking of removing the names from the lists. Opens to too much griefing. I also hope SOE will introduce a "flat fee" for all jedi, so you actually cant see how good this jedi is before you are standing in front of him.
Devs wanted a 1vs1 fight because thats the fair thing. Its not fair fight if 5 ppl jumping on a jedi.
Many of you speak you want a fair fight, but it seems to me its already more then enough fair for you. Seen many BHs on this forum making tags saying killed 100 to 400 jedi. But scream about how difficult and unfair it is theys till do.
You say that if they implement these changes its taking out the fun of being BHs. That tells me really none of you really are interested in fair fight. you just want to walk up to a jedi and kill him, so you can claim your money and brag how good you are.
Novice Jedi have nothing but their feets to protect them when a BH comes around. A friend of mine who have played since the start of this game have always been PvP, and one of the most respected PvP players on my server. but even he gets gimped by BHs after a few hits.
Have anyone of you thought about the idea that this might not be fair to the Novice jedi? And dont come here saying this is what they risk going jedi. Thats just bull.
I really hope they introduce Jedi terminals with BHs on... But im not sure if many of you could handle tasting your own medicine...

have you payed attention to anything going on in the forums and TC???
as of right now, for example, a MBH/Msmuggler can take out a fully templated jedi, 225k one, with MDef/MLS/4004 healer on TC, so its not 1 vs. 1.5, its 1 vs .9

If a padawan is 1.5 times tougher then you are, especially after Pub 19, I suggest you drop the Master Image designer/Master Dancer/Master Tailor template.

Well 1 vs 1. You can prabably still pull if off with rifleman in your templete. Be in cover- sneak on the jedi while hes fighting mob or duels but as long as your on the radar you will have as much of a change that a snowball in hell has.
Anything 220K+ will kill you without breaking to much sweat so here goes another profession down the drain.
Yes teaming on lowbie jedis is dumb and griefing but against high level jedis its a must since solo without the proper specs your dead so fast its no point doing it.
Grats soe as usual you supply players with a profession that has good defence and offence and then you panic since your cashcow "the jedi(tm)" complains.

panic when the cash cow complains..... is that why healing is getting nerfed even though they are leaving in you stackable roots?
You know... If BHs hadnt of ganked low level padawans so much they would not have gimped the missions.
5 man gank for a low level padawan was happening alot. So talk to your respec brothers who were going around in gank squads. they are the cause of this nerf.......

You do realize that nearly every jedi has a BH alt....so what's to stopa jedi from pulling their own mission?

If thats the case, then you were never doing BH for the right reasons imho. A BH has never and should never have the advantage over a full Jedi. I remember back in the day seeing 2 teamed BH going after a Guardian friend of mine on Dath. Im not sure if you know just how powerful Jedi were then compared to now, but i promise you it makes the 1.5 power of now look very attractive. Why did they go after this target who would certainly send them to the cloner? For the challenge.
If 1v1 makes BH who dont want a challenge only to 'win' drop the profession then maybe it will do one good thing for the game.
Nah, he's simply stating that the game mechanics are so borked up that he'd rather find a more stable profession base to build upon.
