Wow, Reddie, you are soon to surpass Jargal himself as Master of Jedi hatred! Good job!
Starting off asking for a Jedi guild, continuing over the FS board...just too lazy...hate what you cannot achieve yourself....Know thy enemy...know thy self... and in 1000 battles, you will never be in peril...
Don't be decieved my friend

shhh
he didn't say anything that deserved that type of response, you know, we're all in this together...and yes...BH's days of griefing are over...there have already been statements that more BH content is in the works...and there are alot of potentials that havn't even been properly explored. increased depth to npc bh missions is one avenue...here is another
PVP rating based named bounties
the pvp rating mechanic, with a minimal amount of coding would allow BH's to step into a larger world of pvp facing a greater variety of opponents....it would be relatively simple and straightforward....this would be an opt in system directly based on a players pvp rating....all characters start at 1200 pvp rating...to raise this rating requires killing other players, on a more frequent basis than you are, yourself killed...surely there are consequences when one takes a life....example pvp based BH missions are displayed below
1201-1250 Anonymous Thug/Dissident 2 possible missions open
1251-1300 Anonymous Outlaw/Insurgent 3 possible missions open
1301-1400 Anonymous Murderer/Terrorist 4 possible missions open
1401-1500 Anonymous Serial Killer/Guerilla 5 possible missions open1501-1600 Named Psychopath/Revoloutionary 2 possible missions openetc etc etcthis system would be self regulating as BH's (and Jedi too for that matter) would be subject to the same standards and since you have to actively engage in pvp in order to accumulate pvp rating, and you pretty much have to intend to elevate your pvp rating in order to do so, and it is very easy to get rid of, it would ensure no one was unfairly victumized. it would allow BH's to still pursue named targets...and above all...seems to me it would make senseFYI I'm >1700 pvp rating

This is not a bad idea. The problem I see with it is that you can gain PvP rating from group PvP and from 1-vs-1 PvP, two kinds of engagements that are totally different from each other. My rating currently is 1366 and I got it mostly through group PvP, rooting / dazing opponents or teaming up with other riflemen on the same target in battles of 20 vs 20 or more. I doubt PvP rating gained by doing crowd control in group PvP says anything about the ability to take on people 1 vs 1, since crowd control is not damage dealing or healing.
WOW...I guess thats why I chose the Jedi profession ...huh Hey maybe I reallyam a Jedi pretending to be a Bounty Hunter. Hmmmm......or is it the other way around?

Well, you have been around long enough to know this publish will change everything...You are no longer a Bounty Hunter. You are now just a simple, waypoint chasing, Bounty FIGHTER. Nothing more...This equals toa cut incontent. BTW,Iremember NPC bounties aswell...and they suck now as bad as they did then.
I see nothing wrong with adding content to all professions...Why not?
I dunno, I personally think that this new patch will make people Bounty "hunt" a lot more, rather than bounty gank or bounty bottom feed.

i totally disagree on mando quests. Leave the DWB/mando forge as is as it keeps mando rare. 5 jedi at the SPs is too much let alone 5 mando clones as well.
I disagree with the "quest" theme as well. Call me an elitest...but I'd rather see the DWB brought more "in line" based on the strength of non-Jedi players and make it "off limits" to Jedi. Right or wrong...it has, and always will bother me that it takes a group of mostly Jedi to obtain armor NOT used BY Jedi.
Truth be told...even if the Devs DID change Mando into a quest...THAT would probably take a group of Jedi to complete as well. No real change.
) and RIS which could be what you might wanna looks atwhat are you looking for IN a BH armor type though
when was that anounced?

Fellow Bounty Hunters,
I know that there have been many questions about Bounty Hunter Armor recently, in fact I just read a post about Mando. It is my opinion that since we are about to get an LAPD style beat down with a NERF baton, that the way in which Mando Armor can be obtained be revamped into a series of armor quests that are very difficult, but not impossible. The DWB is in fact the only known way to obtain the armor at this time, However you are not promised anything by killing thugs and braving the bunker. I think a quest could be created for each piece of armor (10 plus the jetpack) and more quests could be designed to gain bounty hunter weapons of some sort. The weapons and the armor have stats that allow us to kill Jedi more effectivley.
I feel that our profession has taken a major hit. The Jedi are getting all sorts of new items (Robes, Sabers, ect...)in coming patches. I believe we as Bounty Hunters need a little love in future patches aswell. I hope that each of you will read this post andpush forit.I think our Profession needs a boost right now and this would provide an incentive for those of us who have no interest in becoming a Jedi. If anyone has any other ways to improve on this idea...Please, Tell us what you think...ALL ideas are welcome
What do you think Tanks ? Is this possible? I hope you will consider passing this request on to the powers that be.
THANKS
It was in your forums...Besides, when have you guys not got what youwanted. The way you guys use "FORCE WHINE"...BTW, which skill tree is that in?
Well since you posted nothing constructive for us to comment on...I guess ill move on.
Good day SIR
