How about only being able to see the persons Health bar.... So in other words hide the action and mind... as well as force if you are a jedi.


That would be really fun now I think.... I dont really understand why force is hidden... seems to me that if I can see your 'mind' I should be able to see force....


So I say we should only be able to see the other person's health...







Action and mind can be replendish 10000000000000000000000000000x easier and faster than the force.


It takes a double master approximately 15-20 minutes to regenerate his force as opposed to what? 40 seconds on the mind? And 10 times less on action?


Besides, Jedi uses action and mind too. We're already at great disadvantage, not to mention we've been nerfed to hell. Like some of the veteran and experienced bounty hunters said, learn your profession. You guys have it better. Much much better. I know because I'm also a bounty hunter.

As I said since I am not a jedi I dont really understand why it is not shown.... I still think only being able to see health would be cool.

As much as I would love to be able to see their force bar.... I don't really need to ....I can't see this happening anyway... the jedi would cry like they usuallydo and everyone knows they always get their way... or well get nerfed again...


But on the other hand it would be helpful for jedi for when their fighting / grindingthey would know when someone needs force... and could give it to them...

Yeah I'm sure...


For example: Names on terms taken off... which kinda makes sense so people don't getsingled out... but honestly who take a missions to kill someone without knowing who their after... I've only had the droid tell me my marks name once... usually it just gives me a waypoint.. and I gotta go see for my self and ended up finding a guildmate ... if i would have gothis nameat the term I could have saved my self alot of wasted time & droids and dropped it at the term... but I guess we do what we gotta do ....

I know what you're going to say to this.... but from an immersion standpoint, that would make it too easy to identify any player as a Jedi. They are supposed to be in hiding at this point, thoughmost of them rarely are hidden...


Also, it would just create another issue and drive the wedge farther between both communities. I understand your argument: That the Jedi can see everything that the opponent is on.... foods, buffs, crystals, etc. However we can see all of that on a Jedi. The UNIQUE characteristic of a Jedi is their ability to use the force. Having the ability to "see" the Jedi's force bar would create a paradox where non-force sensative characters are able to sense the force. That simply cannot happen.


The only way that this would even remotely be a theoritical consideration is that a.) you'd have to be a Jedi yourself first (not just force sensative, an actual padawn/Jedi) and b.) you'd have to be psyically grouped with the person.


THEN and ONLY THEN could I begin to entertain such an idea.

Simple reason why this will never happen: There are Jedi that actually live in hiding, not showing many people that they are Jedi. You will never see them on the terms, and when you walk past them, you will not recognize them as Jedi. And now you are saying those Jedi should get an "Look here Im a Jedi" tag?


Well they do wear a robe.. Can have a jedi tag (jedi padowan etc).

And I only wanted to see my marks force. And only for a split sec with a mbh only move.

Yes I do not have a jedi nor do I wan't one. I am not screaming for a 1 shot kill move etc only for a move that would make mbh feel like you realy have a ''elite'' prof rather then a side prof.








omg... do you know how much of an advantageBH have already? you get the good loot that you can sell to buy anything you need, you get perfect weapons made, you can get perfect armour with armour break slices, you get to make the first move,you only have to manage 3 pools and you have modded speed that actually works.

What could be more elite than that.


what do jedi get... good and fair crystals... oh yay lets make a perfect saber out of that. most new jedi you see will be lucky toget into the 200-250 dps range. which is about 60% of the capabilities of a lightsaber

and they get the nerf bat with each and every publish.


honestly if your a bh and their is no way you can kill a post cu jedi, either look at your tactics/equipment or go be a dancer...


and before you flame me for trolling im a BH first, jedi second.

jedi arent meant to be easy beats. they are bh content.


they are supposed to be really really reallllly challenging.

Adding the ability to look at their force bar would just be stupid. and very unbalancing

If you get to see Jedi force bars... we get to know when someone has pulled our mission and when you land on the same planet as us and when you are within 200m of us... seems fair to me.

most bh are jedi alts, btw, as it's the biggest moneymaker next to crafting, so we dual post to both forums, and we realize when an idea is completely one sided.

No, my force bar is mine. Noone should see it, jedi or BH alike. If your smart you can judge anyway. See the mind and action bar take a nice dip? Or our max health suddenly go down 300 points? yeah, that's a channel.






You beat me to it. Every decent BH that has been around a while has a Jedi alt, and nearly every Jedi has a BH alt now, including me. So that might be the reason for alot of Jedi posting in here.

lets just make sure the mark doesn't move also. I'm sure if you ask nice, they will just stand there for you while you collect the bounty.

No. Why would you need to see it? you can easily tell when a jedi is out of force they start to go down REAL fast.
