It all comes down to this basic problem --> Bounty hunters grief and waste jedi players time, so jedi players want to grief and waste bounty hunters time.

I like the OPs idea. The Jedi need some incentive to fight. Right now there is no reason to fight. I gain nothing if I fight and I lose nothing if I dont fight. If I fight and lose I lose XP and if I win I gain nothing. So why fight? What's in it for me? Getting a clean slate with visibility would be a great option!

as a full temp jedi i dislike this idea just cause it would mean less BH fights for me. I could see maybe if you beat a bh all vis is earsed and your taken off the terms but than you can say 10 minutes later be full vis and on the terms. I mean come on a lower level jedi who kills a bh shouldnt be showing off just cause they have a grace period. I would like to see a removal from terminals and no grace period (keeps from showing off jedi somewhat as well) and as a full temp when i beat a bh it would only take 30 minutes at most to be back on the terminals anyways (from npc's, pvp,)

1 problem dude, the weak jedi will be on the terms more than the full temp, fighting type jedi's . Otherwise, sweet idea,






Good Point aswell.



Actually I disagree. The fighting jedi's (full temps) will be back on the terms fast.


As far as templated Jedi's I am not sure that vis removed would be much of an incentive.


The problem is also that can be exploited. A Jedis can have a guildie/alt continually try to get the mission for a quick defeat and poof off the terms


Since the Jedi loses something by fighting an dlosing the only way to make it non exploitable by using freinds/guildies/alts is to have the BH lose something.


Jedi do need an incentive to fight though

i think about a 1-4 hour break from been hunted,


if the jedi deathblows a hunter, his mission wont go back on the terms for 1-4 hours.

Heres a Proposal, how about for every BH kill, Jediget a token. Each kill will give jedi a token worth 1 hour of no terminal time. That way if the Jedi has something important to do during a certain time, and doesnt want to be bothered they can just use one of their hour token. I dunno sounds kinda cheesy, but thought I'd throw it out. Might tempt some Jedi to fight, so they can have a few free hours here and there to do stuff without looking over their shoulder.

I love your idea. That and the removal of xp loss.
I am not a Jedi and y may never be one, I just don’t see my self killing that many pikets.
I rather kill Jedi than pikets and I bet Jedi rather kill me than pikets so lets do away with all the barriers.
Right now a Jedi loss to a BH means wasting hundreds of piket kills, more piket kills and more trips to the Flintstone’s. Why would they want to do that? XP loss sux for every one. Get rid of it.


May be give Jedi a nice little badge to put on their swoop for every BH they kill. Kind of like the ones in WWII for fighter aircraft

there will never be a reason to fight. it is all up to the jedi. if he doesnt want to fight then you cant make him. you could make it so if i kill you i would get all the xp that i would have lost and made it positive with the mission payout i still would be iffy(depends on what mood im in i.e. pvp, hunting.....

Nah i dont like this idea and i'll tell you why.4 reasons.


#1. Jedi might find a way to have their friends get their misisons and then the jedi will kill their (BH) friends and then get a free 2-3 days off the terminals.


#2. A BH comes up on a jedi mark and demands a payment and then the BH will let the Jedi kill him. Then the Jedi will get another 2-3 free days off the terminals, at a minimal loss of cash. I suppose this is kind of legal though since the BH is making out with cash as well...but i dont know. Smells like an exploit.


#3. A newb BH will go after his jedi mark...the jedi will massacre him and now have 2-3 days off the terminals and no other BH can now go after this jedi =(


#4. What happens if BH #1 and #2 take the same mission on Jedi #1. BH #1 logs off for 2 days after unsuccesfully finding the Jedi. BH #2 find and attacks the jedi and is killed by the jedi. ....now what happens to BH#1's mission? Technically he still has the jedi's mission BUT the jedi killed his BH mark as far as he knows and is supposed to get his 2-3 days free of BH visits....so how would this work?



Sounded like a good idea though. Thats just my input though, as a ex-BH and a new jedi.

I like the token idea. But I'm sorry, money or taking away XP loss is just too much. I do think Jedi should get SOMETHING, but not the ideas mentioned above. Removal of vis (whether through tokens or removal from the terms for a set time) is a pretty fair thing to do; you still don't have to fight if you don't want to, it would probably be exploited a lot less than if money or XP were involved, and it's fair. Jedi have lighsabers and force skills, and can get vis removed, BHs get money. Seems fair to me. But then again, I've never been (nor will I ever be) a Jedi, with my main character at least.

Let's say we give the Jedi scum a better reason to fight us instead of running. A lot of their ideas are crackpot (i.e. money, XP, BH XP loss, permadeath for BHs). But I think it would be reasonable for us to offer them this:
If they kill us, then their vis is removed for a certain amount of time, maybe around 2-3 days.
What you think?




A good ide, but there are still things that would happend. Picture this.

There are loads of new jedis around here and onec those got vis there aint any stopping them from getting so far down the hold that those need to call 911 to get up.
New jedi get killd, need to grind more. possible more viss killd again.
