With all that's been said, my biggest and number one complaint about this whole thing is the suggestion that if BH want to hunt Jedi, we should be neutral there bydenying almost all other content worth anything in the game other than Jedi to us. That's a selfish thing for Jedi players to even consider. It goes along the same lines as those BH who say that Jedi shouldn't be in the GCW.


I understand that this gamehas an "Else Worlds" type of mentality behind its creation. I'm not arguing that point. I'm also not arguing that Jedi shouldn't be in the game. I'm merely pointing out that for the sake of Role-Playing, I can fully justify my reasons behind hunting all Jedi regardless of faction. It has been stated that BH throw RPing out the window when we hunt same faction.

I say play it as you see it and if others don't like it ..it is either tough or they socially sensure you. I know of Some Rebel Bh who were kicked out of certain guilds for hunting their own faction. Until game mechanics are cleaned up what can you do?

I would hunt any jedi regardless of faction, though I'll stay away from friends and jedi they "vouch" for.

same faction hunting is all well and good if you choose. But it's a bit odd that you're killing them one day, then asking for aid in a base defense the next day.


Whatever you may think, an imperial is an imperial. you are killing an ally if you hunt same faction, or being killed by an ally. If you are a soloist in the game then fine, but don't forget how an imperial BH killing an imperial jedi may look to the other imperial guilds of the server when they think of that BHs guild or associates.


I know MY guild wouldn't be compelled to aid a guild who allows one of their members to come after me. He would die of course, but if you're hunting same faction now, it's your intent to injure your ownfaction, since you can'tselect a particular jedi to hunt.


I wouldn't fault you on it if you are alone, but your guild's reputation will suffer from same faction kills, if they care that is.

I guess being in a guild with nothing but BH and having no faction bases... there is no problem. If anything, I know I am asked to help from time to time. But you always have that one guy... whether it's here or in game.


You see. Although I haven't been in the guild from it's conception, my guild has been around a LONG time. Every Jedi on my server knows who NeXuS is and what they do. We gain respect from them just for the mere fact that we see us hunting Jedi as us doing our job. We are respectful and we don't exploit, although we do use tactics that some would consider... questionable. By that I mean, sneaking up on them and attacking them while they are in a grind group not paying attention or maybe they just finished PvPing and our trying to regen their force. These are all just tactics that is expected of us to use anyways, especially by the pre-cu uber saber Jedi.

Too many times have I seen a Jedi post whining about a Rebel BH hunting their Rebel Jedi or Imperial BH hunting their Imperial Jedi. Too many times have I received /tells stating I have no honor and blah blah blah about me hunting the same faction. Jedi feel like the solution is to go neutral. Have you ever gone neutral and tried to PvP? Have you ever gone neutral and tried to be a part of the GCW? They want us to throw away all other content in the game in order to be able to hunt them. They say that we throw role-playing out the door.


The Emperor ordered the slaughter of every single Jedi save Anakin as we seen in Episode 3. Why do you ask? Simple. Dark Jedi are based on the pursuit of power. Another Dark Jedi would eventually pose a threat to the Emperor and eventually challenge his reign as supreme ruler of the Empire. Even Vader in Episode 5 tried to petition his son to join him... “Luke. You can destroy the Emperor. He has foreseen this. It is your destiny. Join me, and we can rule the galaxy as father and son. Come with me. It's the only way.”





the real question is....what is any self respecting Rebel doing following the orders of the man they're trying to over throw...mostly makes you stupid. It's not the Rebel Jedi or the Imperial Jedi you have to worry about when hunting same faction it's all the other members of your faction that now believe your a low life scumbag. Which you conviently protray as "Jedi whining"

I am Imperial... how much of that original post did you read? Or this thread for that matter? I am in an all BH guild. We are ALL Imperial. We hunt ALL Jedi. Oddly enough, my guild and it's members are actually well liked on our server. Most everyone accepts the fact that we are RPing our parts. While these people that think I am a scumbag come to me occasionally asking for MY assistance, I wonder at which point they will start shunning me.


So... I ask you... exactly who looks stupid?

hey, hunt who you want to hunt regardless of faction. however while doing so, remember the impact that your actions will have on your guild and the williness of other players to group with or be associated with you. also remember that alot of jedi are guild leaders (or what ever) and have a large impact on the community around you. my guild (and several others that I know of) have no same faction hunting rules. i disagree with same faction hunting, mainly because it hurts you factions cause by slowing a jedi in his progression of skills and power.


Once again, do what you want and have fun (it is just a game).. but remeber the impact and opinion that others will have of you.

Hey shaike,

Well lets see i have to agree with you mostly, but a few points mildly disagree. As the system is stupid right now and you have to choice rebel/imp to have any content beyond hunting jedi i see your point. Now also from a RP view i can see Imp BH hunting Jedi. As according to the emperor in our VERY loss timeline all jedi are bad. But on same notion, the word Jedi only applies to Light side. In the game they are called Dark jedi or whatever, but in reality that is a very bad term for them. For a Imp BH to hunt jedi of any faction i see no issues, except when it comes to gameplay and interaction with said DJ guilds. But as a RP aspect i see nothing wrong with it. Now for the rebellion it is different, as jedi are good to them, they are agianst the Empire, just like Real jedi are so it would not make sense for a rebel alligned BH to hunt rebel jedi.


Some would say that is hypicritical but all i am saying is as the game mechanics stand right now from a RPing pov that seems logical to me. Asi have a rebel Jedi and a Rebel BH, if a rebel BH hunted me i wouldent flame him, i would not be rude, but if he was guilded i would speak to his guildleader, and if he allows it then my guild would prob not assist his guild in the future. As a rebel BH i would never hunt rebel jedi for the reason i stated above. An you are right pretty much everyone knows Nexus, fear you? no, respect you? humm.. well as a BH guild who sticks to what little RP there is on this game, yes, as good warriors, yes.. but you are imps . As RP your part i think Nexus does a great job with what you have to work with.


Sadly the timeline is this game has no bearing to the movies, or books. The correctness of terms or even what is, is greatly out of wack... to try to compare this game to any of that you will come up short. I dont see the point of whinning about a BH of the same faction if he hunts me, but there will be consequences if they do. I think that BH should have a seperate faction, with their own content and quests instead of forcing them to pick a side. It would fix alot of issues.. and for the better mabye shut some people up from their constant whinning and bickering.
