I read the part about paddies no longer getting vis... That will only benefit new paddies, and that is only IF they are lucky enogh to never have a sentinal being pop out of no where on their heads, which is how most of us got on the terms pre CU.


Point being though, is you like pounding on classes weaker than you, making YOU the alpha class in your own right... I smell some hypocrisy , dont you?

As many of the other previous posts have mentioned, the Devs are probably lining thier ducks up for the jedi FRS revamp. Making BH mission anon sets up a perfect way to counteract the fightclub exploit the jedi were using to gain FR status. Makes perfect sense to me now that Jedi "get something out of a bh vs jedi fight" otherwise why not just FR away, or /cloak escape.

The so called "bh gank squads" and specific jedi targetting "griefing" is just a side bonus effect in thier mind i am sure.

The sad thing about 1v1 hits is it virutually forces all bh to take up some or part of CM/doc in order to adapt rather than keep a template they want.

However the Devs MUST change giving us a name at some point in the stalking process--OR remove that /duel exploit




I agree and thats great for jedi, but what about the means for us to be able to take down a full template Jedi?

The fights AREN'T supposed to be close! That's why they allow you up to 5 on 1 odds! The problem became that 5 on 1 was supposed to be a random occurance, but instead some BH squads organized and made it very one sided - so they removed the ability to do so in the next patch.


I honestly believe some of you have absolutely no clue what its like to havesome new fool shooting at you every 10 minutes when you're just trying to shop for furniture.


They key to taking out your target needs to remain your heads. There are BH's who've figured out how to get the job done no matter what - they're very good at what they do, and deservea small bit of the hype they receive.Those who can'thackit should get a real job - hunting bounties is not a forgiving profession, and there isn't room for the inept.



Maybe MBH will get a resist force powers skill?

ROFLMAO!!! HUH?!?!? Are you bounty hunters or wizards? You have the tools that you need to do your job - moreso than that. With bomb droids and tracker droids, bounty hunting has become enough of a gimmick profession.









wow, i was really tempted to rip you open for this idiotic post, i'm referring to the drivel in green by the way. but then i decided that each day you live is probably punishment enough without some guy on the internet reminding you of your limited mental capacity. every single point you bring up i could insert the word jedi in for bh and it would almost all apply to jedi

no, i actually happen to have a jedi that is full template - and i'm not an "alpha class" jedi - i'm not Mdefender, nor do i even have novice lightsabers


and how will this only benefit new paddies? - once the paddies that are already on the terms get killed - they can continue their grind un-abated...this helps EVERY jedi



Full templates will get more BH's coming after them


jedi that are still grinding will be able to avoid visibility


jedi that mess up and get on the terms have a less likely chance of getting hunted than they do now



there is no checks and balances system any more


padawans no longer will pay the price they used to when they got on the terms (as readily anyways)



and...jedi are stronger now (relatively) than they every have been (Assuming you have the fotm template and/or pvp skills) - so it's a win/win/win/win/win situation for the jedi


and a lose only situation for the Bh's

jedi are suppose to be 1.5x harder





Thats the problem and thats why everyone is a Jedi.

It's why no online game has 1 single alpha class, its why there needs to be more profs that are equal so you dont force everyone to be the same, so until they have multiple alphas, no they shouldnt be 1.5 better

by making it so that group members no longer give jedi visibility, it will be very very easy for jedi to stay off of the terms now


this means that 99% of the jedi that will be on the terminals will be full template jedi, or jedi that are very close to full template




How is this different than pre-cu, when Jedi could solo grind, and stay off the terms just as easy?


I think the problem is, alot of BHs got fat and lazy, because the CU forced the jedi into having to group just to gain exp at a reasonable rate. Now that some have seen how easy it *can* be, they want it to stay that easy.


The no group vis thing is only going to make it like it was before the CU.


The only really legitamate gripe about Pub 20 (IMNSHO) is the no names till you see the jedi. That is...well...not good.

that would be fine and dandy - if there were still NAMES on the terms



no group vis would be GREAT with no names


no names would be OK-ish with group vis still in effect



the devs should implement 1 OR the other, NOT BOTH

That wuld be great if not for the fact that if you are an even fight for a full template, you would kill a new jedi in about 15 seconds.


And I don't care how many people say that wouldn't happen, I have seen the 5 man gank squads come after lvl 50 paddies. I know for a fact it would happen.

like i said earlier


either give us names and implement no group vis


OR


remove the names and bring back group vis so there is something to hunt other than full temps
