They are not impossible I had a double gold as my first mark with 36k health.Yes they regen like crazy and they never lose action or mind which is BS.

I did however defeat him after 15 minutes.The bad part was I got smuggler loot and the all famous jar of foraged bugs.Your best friend is mando wine and thyroid burst and use your fire and poisons to negate half their healing.

Hard but not impossible.Just wasnt worth the time spent killing it.




Some of us are not CM. So for us it's SOL I guess.

I understand not everyone is a CM but the post I responded to was a CM .I also have friends that are MBH MP 4000 CM and they had a hard time but eventually killed the mark.I guess some people are more up to a challenge than others.The only complaint I have is the fact these marks regen way faster than we could ever hope to its like they were buffed with plus 2000 to all regen pools instead of the 200 that is possible for all toons.

Necrosis is now useing choke and lightning and hits way harder than any real player powers jedi. He has turned into instant death now that he is ranged. Krayts now are 1 hit incappers and so are many other high lvl stuff.
Kind of looks like being forced to be in a group has taken another step to removing anyone who wants to play alone.
Also seems even some of the grinding mobs are hitting with diff attacks and also are much harder to kill.
There was a few of us online who logged in diff spots so we could check the NPC changes.





Thank God, now maybe all the loot campers will find something else to do instead of killing the same thing over and over so they can get a Jedi CA and sell it for 25 million ohhhhhhhh you have virtual credits your so cool.

Actually I will have next to nothing to do now I play at times when few people are online. What am I to do now what exactly is worthwhile? Nothing really all it does is make it so I have what ridiculous quests of poorly done themeparks. I can go dungeoning but ninty percent of dungeons are pure garbage, and likewise camped.


I am ch and now see no reason to work on that anymore because with the npc buff my pets are basically reduced to garbage. Expensive garbage none the less. You guys think its cute now wait till more people leave. Back to the days of ghost towns and nobody on.

I have no healing in my MBH template and as a result, silver elite marks with 25K health are about my absolute limit, provided everything goes to plan. If things wobble in the middle, such as lag, or intereferance from other mobs, then anything with 20K or more health is just too much for me to take on.

If the AI are going to be so good, then they need things like massive health and regen taken away from their arsenal. The fact that they now use all specials and can respond instantly (no hesitation whilst rethinking a strategy unlike humans) is just going too far. Its not so bad on mobs that are mean't to require a group to take down, but as a Bounty Hunter these things need to be soloable to templates that don't have any healing.

I just had a Boss NPC double gold, that his health regen was faster than I could shoot.

This was one of the isues brought up time and again during beta.

The SWG Team has essentialy said Solo Players don't count.

Much-To-Far is a Grouper's Paradise, forget it if you like to solo, though the house is nice....

No space zone either...


I will likely spend the 30$ for the house, and might try to cash in on the rush of people who will be questing like mad thier, but solo play... there were maybe 3-4 missions a solo player could do. Though you can hunt jedi there... If a Jedi is nuts enough to go there.

At this point I am just fumeing if they were going to pull this nonsense then the mark needed to receive a level cap at 80 or have the regeneration reduced this is not smart AI its cheap AI like shooting through walls and other nonsense. We shouldnt be punished for doing what we are supposed to be doing. Not all templates are god mode. If someone out there is lucky enough to have a template that can take these guys down good for them. The rest of us have been barred from doing them.


I know there is a term for this what is that term oh yeah GAMEBREAKING. The real joke here is on the jedi. Now all the bhs barred from this content are going to take their frustration out on you. Your going to have fun because with the introduction of the loot our numbers swelled. We cant get money from powercells chances are we are going to get it out of killing you over and over and over again.

Not a jedi: Give me a break m8. Most Bh/Jedi encounters end the same way as your encounter with the NPC. With a dead BH. If anything if BH activity towards Jedi increase the result will most likely be less BH in the game either to frustration over 1) Being killed or 2) Never being able to find their mark, or finding them afk in a guildhall or house. This is not gamebreaking by any means. The previos BH marks were boring and weak. Now that they have made them a little more difficult it may be worth going back to BH. Two weeks ago I dropped the profession cause I was bored to tears running all over the galaxy just to fight the weakest cl82 in the game.



You know that scene, the one where Marlon Brando did that little hand wave right before he died. Yeah. That was beautiful man.

I wrote this before the NGE, now I feel like Brando
