Bounty Hunter Archive

I still have to say it would be silly to put a bounty on a failed BH mission.

Bounty hunter goes after jedi, jedi kills bounty hunter, jedi logs on bounty hunter alt, and kills bounty hunter again.

Now, if you could not pull up a name it would be harder to run that , but it could happen.

When a Jedi is DB'd they have Vis go down / wiped (because They are dead).---this still needs fixing too.

Putting a bounty on a dead Bounty Hunter would be dumb ( because they are dead).

Mabyeif a Bounty Hunter killed alot of Jedi / players on the terms...She'd make it on them.. Getting alot of successful missions

couldearn you a higher PVP rating like regualr players. This would also make other BH's wary, because they'd know that it wouldn't be an easy target....Be like takeing a bounty on Fett, you know he is skilled, and you'll need to be well prepared.

tell me that one is a joke

this will make the terminals worse than they already are

how is this possible when jedi are supposidly 1.5x as strong as anyone

i think wish list is a seriously bad word, none of the above mentioned ideas are an improvement

( yes i am a BH )

QFFE!

1 vs. 1 with a Master Def....Yeah, this sounds GREAT for the BH community.

Bounty Hunters hunting Bounty Hunters? For me that would be a waste, I would NEVER EVER hunt a Bounty Hunter....even if I was hunted and killed by one.

Terms...faction and status? I hunt all factions and have a "freinds list" to check online status. As for BHs that don't hunt the same faction...it doesn't take THAT long through networking to rememeber what Jedi is which facton.


You know what I WANT TO HEAR from Fan Fest...I want one of those Big Wig Devs, Producers or whoever the hell calls the shot to announce to the entire community that the "BH - Jedi" TEF system is totally borked right now. I want to hear confirmation that Jedi are in fact eploiting the system EVERY SINGLE time they "counter attack" a BH only to shuttle away or run into a house. Don't be blinded by this new BS content that is so far away from going live that even "light speed" couldn't catch up to it.

FIX, RESOLVE, OR CONFIRM existing issues BEFORE trying to take the focus off of the incompetence or complete abandonment of current issues.

Great Change! Makes it more "star wars" - if you get that good, somebody is going to pay attention.

• Successive failed missions getting BHs on terminals.

Great Change! Makes the "hunt" actually dangerous and more interactive.

• Eliminating Jedi names and bounty amounts from terminals while listing faction and online status.

Great Change! Never a big fan of "friendlist", makes the use of droids worth something. Also, I never hunted same faction, so this is an added bonus. I would imagine my mark would be "bright red" on the radar, simple to move cursor over the dot to get the name of my mark. For all those BH's complaining that they might be hunting guildies/friends, since when does a BH have friends? I thought the hunt and the credits were what everyone wanted?

• Making BH vs Jedi missions one on one somehow.

Interesting, but I can see this as a tough road to travel if not done right.

• Adding Smuggler missions.

Good change of pace, but how long before crys of "nerfage" come out?

However, all of the above are more of a wish list at this time and are not on any schedule that has been revealed by devs.

Wish someone would ask at fanfest if this game is going to become a Jedi mmog they just go ahead and do it now instead of this slow progression to it, rename it Star Wars:Jedi Galaxies, let people choose to be a Jedi on startup, change all combat classes to Jedi, give crafters the ability to make Jedi gear, and those not wanting to be Jedi have SOE offer them another game like EQ2 free with one month free playtime to compensate and prevent many from going to non SOE games.

Would make things just that much easier for everyone.

Bad bad bad.


Forcing BH's to 1v1 Jedi is a very bad idea.

Currently the only way for most BH's to take out the large bounty jedi (200k+) is to group.
This is intended, as Jedi are meant to be better than normal proffessions.

As has been stated by the devs Jedi are meant to be ~1.5x better than current proffesions.

Why force it to be a 1v1 fight when Jedi are already better than BH's? It makes no sence.

Either balance Jedi to be only as good as every other prof, which WON'T happen, obviously, or let BH's continue to group to take down a target.

Jedi better hope they don't do this or I smella nerf coming their way.

BH vs Jedi 1vs 1 is way it should have been all along.

Raora

That would rock....hope it happens

Possibility of combat rating getting one on BH Terminals if the combat rating is so high.

Successive failed missions getting BHs on terminals.

I like the sound of that one. Anthing to add variety to what I hunt. Plus might add a bit of excitement to be hunted myself

Eliminating Jedi names and bounty amounts from terminals while listing faction and online status.

I agree with elimintaing names, but unless I have a chance with a full templated jedi I would prefer mission payout to remain so i at least know what my chances are. Online status andfactionIs adeffinate must. I hate tracking my mark round the galxies just to find out he's imp.

Making BH vs Jedi missions one on one somehow.

Fair enough. I normaly hunt alone anyway but for ones that dont you would either need to give a better chance against high leveledjedi or alow the marks mission payout to reamain.

Adding Smuggler missions.

Again variety to what I hunt is a deffinate ok.

However, all of the above are more of a wish list at this time and are not on any schedule that has been revealed by devs.

This idea I like. Would be a nice added bit for the BH's.


• Successive failed missions getting BHs on terminals.

This I also like a lot. Gives BH's a reason to successfully complete their mission. Sort of like a 'reputation' that the BH builds up. The more missions you fail, the lower your reputation goes. And Im also sure that your 'employers' wouldn't be too thrilled with your repeated failures.


• Eliminating Jedi names and bounty amounts from terminals while listing faction and online status.

This I'm not too sure on. While the faction and online status listing would be a welcome addition, I think that either the Jedi's name or bounty should still be listed.


• Making BH vs Jedi missions one on one somehow.

This I disagree with. Perhaps implement it so that lower level padawan's can only be attacked by 1 BH at a time, but I think a group of 5 should still be able to hunt FRS ranked Jedi.
So in essence, 5 BH's can take a low level paddy's mission, however only 1 can attack at a time (through a TEF I suppose). Where as 5 BH's can take a Jedi [insert FRS rank here] and all attack at the same time.


• Adding Smuggler missions.

Again, this I like a lot.

However, all of the above are more of a wish list at this time and are not on any schedule that has been revealed by devs.

the day i can solo a Master DEF is the day i will agree with one on one missions.
And would a BH getting onthe BH terminal be hunted by only BH or by jedi as well?

But you are not supposed to be able to solo a MDEF.

Not sure what the first one means, maybe if your getting a high PvP score?

i like the BH's getting on the terms

They should leave the bounty amount, add add the faction online/offline bit. then give you the name once the droid starts tracking

BH Vs Jedi 1on1 er how we meant to take out a full templete Jedi like that.

Adding smugglers "AT LAST"

only my opinon

my two cents...

- BH getting on the terms to be hunted by other BHs seems pretty retarded.

- Smuggler missions is a good idea, and far too long in the coming.

- Anonymous, 1on1 bounties is the right way to go, however unpopular it may be among certain segments of the BH community. It solves lots of problems (misusing the system to grief particular players, using friends/alts to hold missions, jedi fight clubbing w/ BH), and doesn't actually hurt anyone. Lets just hope the "Waaaa! Its not possible to solo a knight" whining doesn't wear down the dev's resolve on this.
