Not really. I got BH to grind up some FS points and not worry about the nade game. I can grind 900K in weapon XP in a two buff sessions contrary to the expensive nade trick. SoI convert every 2 to 3 days once I cap combat. Don't get me wrong my alt is a MWS and makes high end grenades and occasional creates of c12. I also enjoy the hunting part that you get from scout. It provides an interesting feature to PvE and still affords me the ability to earn credit from needed meat and hide. The jedi hunting is ok, can be profitable but requires a lot of patience and quick tracking ability. At present I dabble lightly just to test my skills. This part of the game is pretty much broken in that jedi want to be invulnerable and bh want to be bust the door down mercenaries. As for the CURB changes the first document looks like a WoW clone that will ruin the game in my view. I would prefer that we don't have wind ups, interrrupts, and cool downs. Combat should be quick and decisive. If it is protracted then all the more tactical. That means two opponents came prepared. Just my two cents worth, give it no stars or all stars. WGAF?
they said only some specials will have the warm up and cool downs, for example /aim. i would think that some of the more powerful specials will have warm ups and coold downs and that many of the commando specials will have them as well b/c of the heavy damage they do.

OK, I sleep at night in the belief that all these folks who are JUST now going into BH are doing it because they have JUST entered the game. I really hope they are not of the caliber we would call FOTM. I dont know why but it irratates me to no end to have folks join just because "its cool" where are all the dedicated "stick it out" good or bad.
/sigh
I honestly don't understand why people care.

When I was thumbing through the player's manual while the game was installing for the first time (almost 2 years ago), I read the list of professions/classes. By the time the game was updating for the first time, I had decided on Bounty Hunter.
To this day, I still run NPC missions. Jedi missions are fun and exciting, don't get me wrong. But NPC missions are quick, easy, don't require a buff, and now that JTL affords me free transportation, cheap. I make roughly 23k off a mission, and all it costs me is an araky and maybe 3 seekers. Usually just 2. I could go out to dant or dath and make more money, and I often do for the XP. But Bounty Hunting is my character's way of life. Kakherot hasn't been in his home town in 2 weeks.
It's what I like to do. Plus I find it a little more stimulating than setting up a combat queue and sitting here.

Agreed...there is nothing I like more then logging on cracking a beer and collecting on NPC marks. Plus the loot can be nice as well. Don't get me wrong i love taking on jedi as a challenge but that may be once or twice a month (i'm a casual player).
On a side note, has anyone thought of becoming a jedi with invest 4 after the combat upgrade since prereqs will be lowered? I have been debating this..at least i have the stalker tag so hopefully if i'm hunted and the BH see that he may just wave and move along.

i see the jedi hunting bit going to master imho, but jedi doing bounty missions that would be silly, but then swg dont usually think about these things unfortunately

So what is the FOTM going to be?
What are you leaning towards after this day of crash to desk top! Me I am still undecided.
I am currently 0044LS 3004Healer 4444Powers 2000Enhancer with enough xp to get Master Powers.
The question is do I take it or use the xp in a diff skill! Any thoughts?

im strongly considering Master Saber/Master Defender 4400 Powers. With the new stim system you can get 1200+ heal stims that are combat level 60 jedi is combat level 80 so dont need 4000 healing. States for the most part have been nerfed to nothing. Knockdown you just push knockdown recovery and you stand up dizzy or not. so 0004 healing less important. force cloak would give a nice advantage if things get too hot for you get some distance then cloak and hide

I don't know what the new FOTM will be but I'm going with what I wanted since Publish 9.
MLS/Mhealer/4004enhancer
Probably will suck but I'm going to play something that I will have fun playing, don't care if I'm "uber" or whatever.
Another idea I had was 4004 LS / Mhealer / Menhancer but not sure because I would like to have dervish

I know I can respec. Guess I am looking for opinions. With the apparent sp to sp conversion wouldnt it be better to spend that 3.2mill xp in another tree?

I always wanted to be MLS MEnhancer Healer 4004 or MLS Mpowers Enhancer 4xx4.
I am sure that thx to the respec possibility i will test them both good before i decide on my move.
BUT AGAIN PEOPLE!!
Play what you LIKE best not what somebody say it's best.
This is a game. N'joy it your way.

oh, i thought you only had one more skill to get. sorry
yeah i'd probably spend that xp in more skill points rather than just the ONE you get for master. If what they say is true, you'd be far better off
edit: but take what they 'say' with a grain of salt, devs could change their mind at any minute

Well I have been waiting one heck of a long month for Powers to have its day. Even toned down which our testing on Gorath and Bria are pointing to. The balancing is just now being started from what is being bantered about on the forums tonight on TCEP3.
But from what a previous poster put I may trade off the healer lines for either enhancer 4004 or defender 4004 just not sure.
