I like the Idea... making the Jedi Blue Glowie might also help... make them one with the force and they need to vist a Force Shrine by walking to it... that would be a pain rofl! plus the Force cost buff... that would make any Jedi fight to the REAL end!

(read before flaming - this is a legitimate post)
Jedi need more Bountyhunter vists.
The current issue is the animosity created with the concept and idea that another player is intending to kill another player with the vision that a death on a Jedi will cause them a terrible loss which equates to greifing.
Bountyhunter and Jedi create a nice aspect to the SWG game and more should be implemented to encourage that a Jedi will actually stay and fight the BH.
The recent changes to the Entertainer caused for the removal of Battlefatigue based upon "players go to entertainers to get rid of something bad..." and that there was a direction to develop the game to encourage a visit to base an experiance upon "...visiting the enteratiner to get soemthing good" which allowed for the new inspiration buffs. There needs to be a similar approach to how BH/Jedi missions are processed.
The problem is a Jedi has more to gain by running and hiding while the Bountyhunter player is attempting to complete a mission. Experiance loss is not the best determent to gaining visibility and there needs to be an associated penalty that resolves around "force" and not exp. A change like this will allow for a Jedi to maintain the desire to continue to gain viz thus allowing for more missions for a BH.
More importantly, the Jedi need an honest gain from defeating a Bountyhunter and this should NOT be something that is associated with the force ranking system. The best thing I can think of off the top of my head would be:
Jedi defeats Bountyhunter ruining mission agasint them =x 0.8% forcecost buff for 45 minutes.

Any positive reward (other than not losing XP) would be welcome... anything at all...
