Thread: (SAMOUS) So...What is our vet reward?
ShaikeRamjet wrote:Yeah... hehe, the old days for me... we didn't have mounts, vehicles, blah blah blah... The really old ones will remember the fact that investigation wasn't the only hard skill tree for us. For the first 3 months or so, our Light Lightning Cannon was broken. It did a max of 100 damage. Most of my weapons grinding was done on Endor... try using a broken LLC on Arachne Webmasters... back when they still had medium armor.
The hologrind happenned after some of us became MBH. Some of us really old ones, it actually took us 5 months to get MBH and that was only after they fixed the LLC's and somewhat fixed our marks, even though they would still not be there half the time. All of you guys that think it was so easy to grind 29 professions before you got Jedi... didn't do MBH when these guys are referring to.
Yup, not to mention the fact that it was 10 min shuttle waits, and if u had to hop 2 planets, your looking at 20 minutes just to get to the other starport, then 20 minutes running to the mark, just to find that its bugged, (sometimes it even planet hopped on you once u got there), then 20 minutes to run back, then another 20 minutes to get back to your original starport, with about 200 BH xp if you were lucky
The only reason im bothering asking for something, is that most jedi had an easy grind and are going to be running around blue glowy. Pre9 Jedi should be the only ones getting glowy skillz. But since the postcurb jedi get cool stuff, wheres mine?
Anyway 4 months to grind 1 normal profession this is what we are talking about not 77 days to grind 30 professions and then 2 weeks to get to knight AFK grinding in the geo caves DWB and any other dungeon you exploited to get there with you macros and carebears to help you.
i say give us battle worn mando with jetpack that works and helps you on these new missions with gadgets also ,space bounties where we can hunt and kill in space ,and can land and take off on any planet any where now that would be cool.
cos the devs are not going to give us player bounties that is for sure/cry
I think not.
Myself and my guild have worked our collective @sses off to get the mando we wear. If you earn something, then you have the right to wear it. Paying $15 a month and not working on getting your mando armor is nobody's fault but your own.
Earn it, then you won't have to cry for it as a free bee.

They've already given it to you. It's in the DWB waiting on you to earn the right to own it.

Let me guess, there isn't one.The Jedi are getting some nice things, why not us?I say we should get a full suit of Mando and a Jetpack. If not then,give somthing...anything!Some of us have worked very hard to get to where we were in the game. Please...give us some compensation.
Giving away free Mandalorian armor and/or jetpacks would undermine the effort of those who actually did the DWB in the past
A new item that is purely for show? Maybe. Personally I think the +10 CL you'll have over the neophytes is enough. But if you want me to push for a wearablespecial Bounty Hunter Guild Medallion or something along those lines, I could see what I could do
Then again, which would you guys rather me push for right now: Free Mando or Player Bounties?

GET OVER IT!!!
If you had to unlock BH (which I had always wanted, to make it special) I would agree with you, but BH was handed out to every Respec'er in the CU...
Beat another Dead Horse please...
Oh, and before you flame me, I've been a BH since launch, my current Alt's a BH and I'm REALLY going to miss hunting Jedi.

Thats a good theory, but just because you worked your @ss off getting that, whats to say other people havnt worked their asses off doing other things? Just because the devs didnt nerf the thing you worked for, doesnt mean we shouldnt get something. When CURB was announced I worked my @ss off getting a total of +25 AAs and CAs for all my mods, including Carbines while standing, carbines while moving, pistols while moving and pistols while standing, dodge etc. When CURB came, they were never even converted, complete junk. I sought those items to become a better BH, and thats no different to working hard to get mando armour. So who says which effort is more important? Im a BH through and through and im just as entitled to something cool.
Bring on the player wipe i say.
Hmm...seeing as DJM's dropped +25's for how long after the CURB? It couldn't have been that hard. Sit in the DWB for hours...days even and hope that the .1% chance a BL or PLC drops finally comes around. Oh, then lets not forget doing the miners quest for alum minerals.
Woah! Guess what? I was in the same boat you were in with the +25's while moving. Seeing as how +25 attachments are a dime a dozen post CU, that's not even in the same ballpark for comparison to getting Mando armor. I've been a BH since I'm willing to bet before you've been playing, and even I wont jump on the *Free Mando* wagon. Hell, I did it before speeders and I dont care if I get compensation or not.
SOE's compensation to me can be giving me a good game. I think thats compensation enough.

I have been playing since launch + the 2 weeks it took to ship the box. Ive also been a BH on that account since my first day. Likewise i ground BH without mounts and speeders. My point is not against other BH, it just happens that mando is an iconic BH symbol. If post pub 9 jedi get something, i want something too. Especially since theyre the ones who borked the game for so long. Giving them a blue glowy is just going to make them feel special again and want to be uber, yet again. Then the whinging starts, then SOE listens, then the game goes down the toilet. Theres no way they can take away the blue glowy thing, so give everyone something uber, or give me a new server to start on so i dont have to deal with blue jedis running around
