Your missing the point, do away with the xp loss and Jedi would come out of hiding. Plain and simple. Lower it to a acceptable level rather than the 900k loss which takes several hours to recoup and the hiding out on Kashyyyk would stop or at least come way down........

I do agree that respecers were handed "freebies", and those BH 3000 templates as well, I'll tell you how I hunted Jedi pre-9 when droids didn't work, I waited at starports such as Theed or Coronet and it took days, sometimes weeks before that Jedi showed up (and sometimes drawn his LS causing a TEF) and I believe I caused one to permadeath as well, even after pub-9 I did not log on and randomly pick a mission and track them down, I knew where many Jedi would be or go and what they did.





Im sure we dont need to go back down this road but these were the days. A select amount of jedi were around, and you actually had to ask people and do some research to know the jedi's locations, and coming across one (even if it was a few days apart) was THE biggest rush to get out of this game!

Commenting about Kash, the LOS bug, and other things not in this release is off topic. The question is not "what should this patch have been", or "what needs to still come", but "what do you think about what was in the patch."


It's unfortunate that there are bugs, and they need to be resolved. That aside, it looks like the responses are indicating that the dev's hit their mark. Jedi's who were somehow (I think we all know how) avoiding getting no the terminals are getting hunted. BH's who were perhaps fond of gank squads and preying on less than challenging padiwans for easy money are quitting in frustration. Devoted BH's are reporting success.


I give this release high marks as a step in the right direction for reasonable minded folks on both sides.

Nope, YOU are missing the point behind the whole Visibility system. The visibility system and BH missions are there to PUNISH you when you "come out of hiding". Plain and simple.


They want you to grind Jedi. No worries. But gaining visibility should come with severe penalties. At the moment, WE (and the exp loss we bring)are IT.

The rant is Jedi are grinding on Kashyyyk and the BH's can't find them and want them to come out of hiding. Thus, if you lower or drop the xp loss that will make Jedi come out of hiding. I'm 2 Boxes away from a complete temp So, I really don't care.



I would also like to say the Jedi watch the trail coming down and a BH will have several NPC's on them before they even get a chance to Kill a Jedi on the Ryatt trail.

No, the rant is that we don't know our target's name on Kash. Given the size of the zones and the predictability of grind points (Feral Wookies ftw!) we don't need to track 'em. We just need their name. Hunting 'em is part of the job.

If you know the names then how is that going to help? Targeting Macro? Or you don't want to hunt guildmates or friends? Probably both anyway, why do you have an opposition to lowering xp loss? I guarantee everyone on Kashyyyk would rather grind on Tatooinee where you can get 2 times the xp....
