This should not f*cking happen! Cloak needs to be broken like /cover.





If that`s really happening then that is just not right. It shouldnt be able to be used that way imo.

Maybe you, but not the other 95% of jedi that have it. Granted, there are alot of respectable jedi that dont use it for this reason (until they run out of mind or force) and use it for spying in pvp which is fine, but 95% of the grinding jedi get it right off the bat for the *click i'm safe* button. We use a whole profession to hunt you guys. One line in jedi shouldnt save you from bh's. Either we get a knock out of cloak button or you get a cloak at master powers button.





there should be no "knockout" move on cloak, it clouds peoples minds making them believe they are not there thus torso shot etc shouldnt work on it (choke too for that matter) if you wanted to stop people cloaking so much give it a snare movement or warmup





if you want to be so movie-istic about it, tell me when any jedi in the movies 'cloaked' heh [=

That's the perk of being a Jedi.

Jedi have a way to kick a jedi out of cloak, force-choke which is a dot. Dont you think us bounty hunters should have a dot kick out as well? Like torso shot, or cm dotsto kick them out when it kicks to give us a chance against the random newb jedi that is like 0300 sabers and force cloak? I mean, I select completed template jedi, but every once and rare time just frustrating that you can take out a completed template jedi, but a brand new nub jedi with force cloak can avoid any confrontation whatsoever.


Post your thoughts [=





jedi cannot pull another jedi out of cloak with force choke.


what choke DOES is if you land a choke on someone then go and cloak the NEXT tic of choke on the victim is seen as an attack by you and will pull YOU out of cloak.


this prevents a master powers jedi from simply /forecchoke; /cloak; rinse repeat till you drop dead.


you got it a bit backwards

Seems we need to nerf the jedi back to coruscant, so our pray is entirely defensless.. What the heck, take the profession away and let the bounty hunter just have NPC missions.


Seems like some folks can't stand there are professions that have some kind of good edge they are getting owned by (how that is since cloak is mostly used as a getaway). Try new tactics or have you just getting stuck in some you don't want to change?


Nerf cloak!

Nerf bh droids -> Use rangers!

Hmm, they must've done some fighting to get past the locked doors on the way to the loot bins in the first place.


The only fix I think they should make to cloak is that it should not work on Droids. I mean cloak is a form of mind trick, clouding the minds of your enemies to make them believe you aren't really there, well droids have no minds to cloud, so therefore should always see you. So if a BH is attacking a Jedi with a droid pet and the Jedi cloaks the droid would continue to follow and attack the cloaked Jedi. Also in places like the DWB you mentioned the SBDs and BDs would also still attack the Jedi.

Just my 2 cents.






I like the sound of that.



also someone else wrote about sonic wave emitting droid. That's also a good idea aswell. Maybe increase the range at which they cannot cloak from 20m to 30 - 40m maybe.


I'm not against them having it and I know its not in the movies, but i'm sure i have read about it in a EU book somewhere. Seem to remember Luke using it on some stormtroopers or something, could be wrong tho.
