Hunted 7 marks yesterdays.2 were Elite (1 chevron 35k Health).

Im lvl 80,MBH MP CMedic xxx4.Fights last for 2-3 minutes.I healed few times, but never been under half of my H pool.


Mobs hitted 100-150. And KD me often.



I d like to see those "Big Boss". It seems to be a real challenge.



PS: loots were smuggler stuff

PS2: if those mission are pain for you, check your inventory: armor with good enrgy? Personal Shield Generator? BE clothes with ranged/melee def? Use food/drink and dont forget to use DUELIST STANCE if you re Pistol!!

I love it when people say the marks are "easy". I wouldn't characterize them as "easy", but I wouldn't say they are impossible either. They are just about right. I took out a CL82 double gold chevron with 86K last night. There is a certain amount of learning, patience and skill when you take any of these marks on. I seem to do best when I force the mark to melee. I wear my high kinetic assault armor and have plenty of time to plan out heals and stay in control of KDs and duelist stance. No macros here, I like to be in control of my actions and reactions. Despite what my signature says, both of my accounts are bounty hunters and each of my characters have entirely different templates. With different play styles, I can take out high-level marks...but sometimes I get incapped once or twice.


So far, I think the system is fun. The marks are a bit more intelligent and getting some good loot for an activity that can take around 1/2 hour from start to finish is a fair payoff.

i had a mark today, 36k ham, with my armor on he was hitting for 500. i am a master doc. i had to run, let my mind heal, use both my health crystal, and mind crystal(bugged?) did a bunch of food, went back and tore him up. got a nice skem and some power cells for the effort. fight took 20 - 30 min and would have never done it without being master doc. armor is like this 5600energy, 2400energy PSG, 200 ranged DEF.

Well I would agree with poster... except I came across one I couldnt!


36k ham. doulbe gold chevron. it was using an fwg5, and was hitting for 600 dmg past my 7k kinetic armor (yes the first time I died i was wearing energy armor, so i got smart and switched when I went back).

I'm a MBH MRifles, got a trando hunting rifle, with my ca's aa's, pup etc my dps was 687

I got him down to 12k ham before I dropped. simply couldnt heal fast enough...


Usually I agree with the poster. I RARELY heal during any bh mission.. this guy was definitely an exception.
