Thread: Great news for REAL Bounty Hunters!

I find it ironic that a Jedi could do a /duel on you and know that he's your mark even before you know it.
Oh?
I would like to see a master BH do this solo. No, I didnt catch him channeling or anything else. Clean one vs one fight.
And I only have only 4000 BH.

your crying. seriously you are. boohoo, its actually time for you to work now. instead of finding that 30k mission.
What about the opposite side of this argument. The guys who didn't fight padys? Now i'm forced to fight the low ones cuz after the hunt i'm not going to drop it. Atleast with the money system I could figure out the big guys from the small fries. I think this is going to hurt padys alot more then BH's in the end. For there are a bunch of high end bh's that dont waist their time with Padys and now are being forced to hunt them through this random system. It may be random but you get enough ppl doing it and i believe you'll be seeing more bh's then you did in the old system. Unless you were one of those who talked smacked and got on some guilds hitlist
Also with this new system I'm going to be able to do missions faster because i wont have to waste my time with /addfriend etc, i will know the faction, true i wont know the name but meh whatever i ride up on my speeder hop off blam blam, either dead jedi or dead me then i just keep going. say 30-45 minutes a hunt get about 10 to 20 hunts in a day. when sometimes i'd spend 3 hours at a terminal looking for a mark. This is going to be fun, good hunting ![]()

im crying, yes! so whats your prob with this??
and why are u flaming instead of answering the question, where the fun would be if these changes go live?
maybe u think i cant hunt, maybe your right, but everyone has another hunting style do what do u mean with "real hunt"?
and maybe i wanna hunt some challenges instead of low level paddy's, but with this system all are forced to hunt what they get, so everyone will get more paddy's which also means more whining paddy's coz of instant kills everytime they go out of their houses or something, this also kills the fun for a paddy to make his way up to knight!
correct me if im wrong, but dont flame anyone for his own opinion, coz not everyone has the same opinion about thing and u should accept that instead of trying to force ppl to follow your opinion.

Hey guys, have you heard! the Role play element is HERE! We dont know who our mark is till we get there! We can actually HUNT and take our time! we can now study our mark and find the BEST time to attack! Rejoice REAL Bounty Hunters! We no longer will get out done by the Hybrid invest 3 people. NOW they have to be masters like us! The FOTM has changed! we can now see who REALLY wants to be a BH.
How many of us were MBH when the time being a MBH sucked. How many of you were angry to see all the Invest 3 Melee bh running around doing a btter job than you. How many times did it erk you to see a Master combat medic/ Master carbiner/invest 3 bh take down a mark YOU could not cause you chose to stay true to your craft! Well now you have the rights to brag! you never dropped MBH when you knew it wasnt as good as a melee BH. you didnt drop MBH when you could have just picked up Master combat medic and done a better job. you stuck through it. And now being a MBH really means something.
Rejoice! you veteran MBH know not seeing names is no big deal. cause you have patience. You know you have first strike. you know you can find when they let there guard down. you KNOW your prey. Hunting in groups was a rareity for you. You are a REAL Master Bounty Hunter. You know and understand that these changes did nothing but make YOU more important, and make the tactics you were ALLREADY useing that much more aplicable.
Good Job To the REAL Master Bounty Hunters. You patience once again has payed off.
P.S. i am being serious. I LOVE these changes. it brings back the SKILL in hunting. Thankyou DEVS.

Unfortunately this likely means I'll be hunting padawans that I never would have gone after before. I want to know if we'll be getting names and payout info from Informants. Something tells me we won't, and that doesn't bode well for the profession at all.
Devs: Please tell me how I will be able to hunt Knights and near-equivalents in this system. Please tell me you will give us the name of the target before we get the waypoint. When I play as a BH, I ask around about the person I'm hunting, find out their styles and history. It's part of the profession, and it's part of the role-playing aspect. There are ways to eliminate griefing without stripping the logic from the profession.
Yeah, i hope there is something cuz I dont want to think that all the time spent on the jedi database for my guild has been wasted. I know i can look at it when i actually come face to face with my target but I usually like to study it you know ask the other hunters what they experienced when fighting them etc etc. Not going to get that without a name... /shrug...
Scenario 2: Jedi is not on Kash (omfg I can't believe it), you know you will not kill your mark because he is a full template knight.
Either way, Jedi wins, everyone else loses.
