Thread: AFK Ryait Trails Jedi Grinding is Back...
FYI, there's a post n the Jedi boards praising this new change/bug/BS and how "Hooray! We can grind the trail again!"
Another reason why every time I go to the Jedi boards I get nauscious. Jedi borads actually peeve me off more than BH boards. Maybe it's cause I was a MBH longer than I've been a Jedi. Not sure. I just wish people would realize this whole BH/Jedi thing needs to enefit both classes before the Dev's remove player bounties altogether. IMHO that would NOT be good for the game.

Dont know if its a bug or "working as intended" but just killed a jedi on the ryait trails and sat and watched the rest of his group die. Here is the odd part - You can use unstick it just bounces you to a few meters away from where you are and when you die and clone you clone in the same spot you died at.AFK jedi recloneing and getting triple incaped over and over till they come back to ther computer. I only wish they were loosing xp each time they died that would really be funny.
If a bh kills them, they are losing exp. If the wookies kill them.. well.. whatcha gonna do.
I refer you to my first post in this thread, they need to set it back to the way it was last week.

And now when you die on the trail, you spawn right back in the spot where you died. You can not /unstick to get out of there either. So if you are an afk jedi andyou get killed, you can pop right back up where you were and continue fighting. Sure, you suffer decay if it was PvE, but you don't have to run all the way back down there.
IMO the whole thing stinks and the devs know this. That's why the changed the marks to elites and that's why they dropped CL500 DJMs on the spot from time to time. Kash is "supposed" to be an adventure planet and seekers do not work there so that players can adventure without interruption. Grinding there is another issue. I really hope that the devs put the elites back.
The reason that this impacts me as a BH is that when I take a mission, I keep getting Kashyyk missions. Since the last patch, about 70% of my PvP mission pulls have been on Kashyyyk. The fact that these players are grinding NPCs makes their visability so high, that it hard to pull other missions for non-kashyyyyk grinders. There are two choices for the devs; 1) make droids work or 2) restore the elites.
a third option would be to leave the wooks at 8k, its not a bug, the devs changed it back on purpose..... c-ya on the trails 
ps kill me all u want, u wont slow me down 1 bit, c-ya at the starports while im waveing my glow stick in your face.....

My point is this, in a few weeks time the afkers will be showing off at a starport near you with their glow sticks out. They'll gain vis, and they'll get a visit off a BH or 2. Then when the die, because they don't know how to play the profession, they'll be in the Jedi forum screaming nerf the BH's/CM's/RM's/SL's. Thats MY point.
So they wont be any different than most respec bh's losing to jedi right?
Hypocrisy sucks.

that's missing the point. It's not the fact that they afk, its the fact that they are afk in an area where droids can't find them and an exploit exists to shield them. Therefore its different for jedi because they are suppose to be hunted and instead alot of them hide on kashyyyk afk and or use an exploit to be unattackable.
God forbid you have to take htat extra ten to 15 minutes and run each instance.... wow that is harsh!

DUH, but it's not as easy to AWAY FROM KEYBOARD grind at Dantooine since there is no set spawn. If they AFK grind while they are at work or school every day of the week, and they happen to get an unlucky roll and get killed twice... they will still come out ahead on the xp table.

They can get way more xp in dant groups and they can avoid vis.
that is the gamble though...they are betting that most BHs will not accept missions on Kash since the driods do not work their...I look at this as more of an opportunity to make some creds...BTW...even before the elite fix most jedi there were not AFK...you would get the occasional ones who were...but for me it was few and far between....

Noobs like you give all us Jedi a bad name. Go play KOTOR if you want to use cheatcodes to get an Uber-Leet Jedi.
