"Bounty Hunter is a "ranged" profession...not melee...hence the three skill trees of "RANGED" combat abilities...What Bounty Hunter would want to get within melee range of their mark? Not I.

Hunting another player should never be below a Master skill...."


Thank you for making it clear, it has been geared for ranged since day 1, and before the CU I have been a MBH/MPistoleer even after the master scout pre-req was dropped and I liked the challenge against those 85% saberblock and occasionally succeeded, there's even a well known BH named Katana on Lowca that was ranged with a nice DE-10 and DOT pistols until his 350th kill then he went TKM for the next 50 kills then went back to carbineer then quit (or banned?).

Like I said earlier, you can still take up a melee class with MBH and 0020 healer which goes pretty well with decent instant stims and ruby bliel, after all most of you hunt low level paddies right?

Moving Jedi bounties to MBH is a greatidea. Back in the day when I was a MBH I suggested this and the poster reasons were exactly the ones given as to why it should not happen. In fact, my mere suggesting brought out all kinds of flames. But, and I will continue to make this argument, the "reward" for giving up so many skill points should be the ability to hunt Jedi. Having that ability in the InvIIIor IVbox only is just not a reward.



Have a nice day!

Sorry, I tried, even got into a bit of a rumble with an anti-PvP/PvE Jedi correspondent (not the Jedi corr.) that popped into my thread on this matter. The final word came down just a bit ago. It will go to Master.

You'll just have to wait for Publish 21, there is some love comin'. .

Doubt it.


Everytime SoE published Non-Jedi "love" there is always a "hiden" snag. Much like when everyone was jumping for joy about the recent Master Defender "nerf" and ignored the increase to Saber and Powers.


Any "love" thrown to Bounty Hunter (or any other profession) that is at the expense of Jedi, will not last long or will be countered in some form.


I'm tired of the talk, we've been playing this game for 2 years and all we get told is, "in the next publish".


All theCombat Revamp did was make every profession a sub class to Jedi. Each profession is "suppose" to have a "role" but don't worry because if someof them are not around, just get a Jedi because they can do it all. Better yet, why even bother with the other professions, just go straight to your local Jedi with the all important question "can you help me complete this quest / mission because I cannot do it on my own".


That is what this game is about now.

It has nothing to the with Jedi and everything to do with BH and is tied to moving missions to Master. I am trying to get an OK to let you guys know.

Nothing to do with Jedi, the Jedi wont like being excluded from us getting something......


But on a more serious note, nothing to do with Jedi means either NPC, or another profession.
High level challenging NPC missions would be lovely.
Hunting another profession.. well I dont think thats on the cards for a while, if ever.

My guess would be an End Game idea to help us combat the FRS knights.(like a ranking system for BHs). Which would make sense for the moving missions to Master.


Tanks... Did the final word come down on the Names issue yet?

Why can't the ability to hunt jedi come with Investigation 4 and just make MBH way more effective at it?

" I'm not one.. yet
But, I Really miss it.. I've seen some DEADLY Melee BH's out there.. Saw a guy absolutely school a finished template, pre-cu jedi. I'm thinkin bout grabin that template, but it will be impossible with teh MBH change."


TKM/BH were very common pre-CU and it didn't take much to school even a ranked knight, all you had to do was keep them KD'd and dizzy spam then UA3 and 9 out of 10 times the Jedi ran out of force which won the fight for the BH, I handled 3 Jedi at once with my TKM toon one time, it took them 45+ minutes to drain my mind (I'm a mon cal which had a 6500+ buffed mind at that time).
