Ozmos "the maker of this thread" is a NO BS kinda guy, and a guild mate and friend. He never backs down from a fight, and trains using us guild jedi as test bait all the time for his template revisions and idea's.... We let him take missions on us with out warning so he can get in practice, which also allows us to stay on the edge as well.

Many of you could learn a thing or two from oz

/salute oz!

This is weird. I am fully templated padawan waiting on the mythical FRS to come back online and i am actually agreeing with a BH twice in one week. Some type of record for me. But, the poster of the message is right. Any seasoned BH knows the nerfing the Jedi has gotten to their abilities in the last two months and the experienced BH would have expected the rest of the game to be adjusted around that. Jedi have had to make serious adjustments and now its the Bounty Hunters turn. Either get better, adapt to the new game, or quit. There are no more options. All proffesions are being steered away from dabblers to more specific orientated and to do that they pretty much re-wrote the game. or at least copied eq2. It sucks, everyone hates it but what can u do?

Couldn't have said it better myself. Being both Jedi and BH, I think the main argument of Pub 20 stems from people who like to pick on Padawans.. for everyone else, if you find a Padawan, just drop the mission and move on.

Adapt, learn, get some friggin' skills, eh? Intelligent and skillful players can take down a Knight.. so learn how to be a BH.

its hard to say that really, not everyone can learn how to kill a knight, not everyoen can affod the best wepons and armor to do it. No im not a bounty hunter and yes i can kill knights so dont say im complaining because i cant kill them eather.

Nothing will compare to the whines i saw over on the Jedi boards after publish 19, and it wasnt even a nerf! LMAO. Pls, pls, pls post something similar over there. The jedi boards are filled with enough crying for the whole galaxy. A lot of the nub jedi should take some advice from Jedi pre publish 9 who actually had to deal with penalties.

Yet again...

Also, this is just a plea from myself to the BH community for the Paddy hunters to build a bridge over there little river of tears, & get over it. True BH's will stick around, once this patch goes through the jedi will know that the BH's that still hunt are the ones that will kick your ass. Im fine with it, and I know real BH's are also. Just wish the paddy hunters would just stop crying.

wow - its bad enough that the jedi trolls accuse the bh community of paddy feeding. Now the bhs are doing it to. Most of the more intellectual bh's seem to realize there are alot of negative repercussions that come with the changes in pub 20, and thank god Tanks is one of those bh's. Exclusively hunting just paddys(by that I mean < 100k), may be easy, considered 'bottom feeding', or just plain cruel, but it is natural selection at its finest. It is darwinism and if the hunting system truly was intended to help control the jedi population, than it would be working all too well. that is not to say that alot of bh's only hunt paddys. Actually most of us hunt in that 125k - 200k range, and its only a small minority that have owned up to having never hunted anything over 100k. As I have said in other posts, I would imagine that the same percentage of paddy stompers is roughly equivelant to the amount of jedi afk grinders, since it stems from the same 'I want my game to be easy' mentality. This equivelance of perentage would balance out the afk'ers with the paddy stompers. My biggest problems with publish 20 are not from the actual implementaion of the changes but from where the justification seems to be coming from. Almost every change has been from jedi input at fanfest, with no thought or credibility given to the bh community input. Moreover, the planet Cash-ick has had the appearance since day one of being the jedi shangri-la ultimate grind spot, with every publish making it easier for them to level up there, all while the devs say it is working as intended and giving us a crapload of bs about it just being an adventure planet where people aren't supposed to live or stay. The only real reason for taking names off the terms is to keep the Trail safe. The only other thing most bh use names for is starport duelers and opposite faction guild wars. How many actual cases have there been of one specific bh having a grudge against another specific jedi, where he took that one jedis mission over and over, without hunting anyone else and not having enough evidence in his combat/spatial logs to warrant special disciplinary action from a csr for griefing? I challenge you to find evidence of one case! If the bh in question were griefing, he would have left enough ingame evidence in his logs of griefing and would be dealt with on a specific case. The bh community as a whole are not griefers, and this publish is SOE publicly saying that we are, and it really pisses me off. And if you were any kind of bh. it would burn you up to.

Honestly, the easiest way to keep patty hunting to a minimum is to raise the BH xp for regular npc missions. I suck at pvp but I tried hunting some low-level jedi for the xp (got my butt kicked but it wasn't jedi skill, it was previous template skills). Anyway, if the normal npc mission would be better xp, why would an up-and-coming BH try a jedi mission in the first place, at least not until they are up to level 80.

But I think that all the people complaining about the patty hunting (don't touch a paddy, he's just a paddy and no threat to you) is missing the point, these pattys that everyone are supposed to leave alone will just be full-temp Knights sooner than normal and then the only jedi's out there will be full-temp jedis.

Which is fine for the MBH's out there that can take them solo, and the ones that can't yet will eventually learn, but really everyone saying not to touch paddies are just giving them a free ticket to grind to their hearts content (not that they need a free ticket if they bought ROTW).

Whats funny is that 90% or so of BH's are trying to become jedi, yet they Badmouth jedi anyway cos they have a hard time beating us and they want a I WIN button. And how can a jedi not be skilled? if they arn't skilled they'll get killed by BHs all the time? kind of contradicting mate.

i like how this guy contradicts himself in his own post and then goes ahead and accuses some other poster of "kind of contradicting mate" lol
