Thread: Friends DBing exploit

He was already dueling the guy...so what your saying is that if a jedi is dueling another jedi and then a bh attacks him then they are automatically exploiting which is pure nonsense.
No, what he is saying is that the act of the db from his buddy was the exploit. His buddy could have /endduel at anytime, yet he did not. Plus, you don't "accidently" db someone.
OMG, do you read these before you post? I rarely agree with Jedi, but in this case I can find fault only with the logic of the BHs in this forum who are crying exploit.
IF the Jedi was in a duel when the BH attacked, the person the Jedi was dueling has just as much right to the DB as does the BH. Where in the rules does it say that if you are dueling a Jedi, and a BH shows up to collect the bounty on that Jedi, that you must /endduel andlet the BH and Jedi have their fight? Oh right. NOWHERE.
If the Jedi was already in a duel, this is NOT an exploit, merely a BH who was pissed about his bounty being taken away. It sucks, yes, but it's not in violation of anything.
If the Jedi was not in a duel, I would still say it's not an exploit. A cheap tactic on the part of the Jedi and their friend, but that's all.
Which begs another question that several others here have raised: Why is it ok for us BHs to use cheap tactics but not Jedi?

face it, you got beat. your tactics were not profitable because of the time you decided to strike.
You hold their mission for three days and it is up to you when to strike, you chose poorly.
It's the life of a Bounty Hunter. Not all of your marks will be there sitting in the kneeling position waiting for a soldier's death.
He got away from another DB. SO? don't cry, get another mission and now that you have learned from this experience. You will not do it again. You now have more experience then you had prior to this event.
Everything is an exploit when it doesn't go someone's way.
it is NOT an exploit. plain and simple. You can call it what you want but you just have to deal with it.
Get up, brush yourself off, grab another mission and do NOT repeat the same thing. You may be lucky and gat their mission again.
The Jedi did nothing wrong. In fact he preserved his assets.
morally is it right? I wouldn't do it personally but it happens.
getting angry about it only hurts yourself.

trust me, nobody is suposed to be able to intefere with a BH's mission after he gets TEF, this is an exploit if used on purpose. Otherwise its just a bug that WILL be fixed.
This is a very valid point, but until the CSR's or Dev's say otherwise, it's just lame.

I'm not sure how you read that post and not conclude that his friend DBd him to stop the BH from doing it.
its good they got what they deserved, there are too many lame cheating jedi out there who have little skill.

yes if you are in a duel it should end imeditly the same as when you are in a PVP and are special forces and a BH attacks, suddenly you are TEF'ed and out of the PVP fight and into another one.

The battle between a jedi and a BH is intended to be 1 on 1. Anything done that disrupts that 1 on 1 is not working within the intended process. Doing something intentionally that is not within the intended process of the 1 on 1 is an exploit. If he DBed you knowing he shouldn't (we know he knew he was in the wrong) then yes it was an exploit.
Rule of thumb is this. If you have to ask if its an exploit...it most likely is.
Now that's not true at all!!! The devs don't even consider jedi vs. bh a 1 on 1 deal only. If that were true then 5 bh's would not be able to get a mission for same Jedi. I don't consider it an exploit, but on the other hand I do feel for the bh, cause it's not like a regular mission where you can go knock it out in 5 minutes.
