How can I ask my entire Guild to come help me kill an undetermined amout of BSTs who may or may not Drop what I need. Then drag them down to the DWB to find more crap that may or may not drop. Then after all that time and effort tell them to come with me and the guild weaponsmith to the bottom of the DWB to maybe craftONE piece of Mando just for ME.

I say leave the DWB as it is. I say leave Mando as it is. However we as Bounty Hunters have said for a long time "we would like some Bounty Hunter Armor". We are willing to work for it but it is not reasonableto ask that many other players to spend that much time just to helpME get one piece of armor...maybe.

It was in your forums...Besides, when have you guys not got what you wanted. 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

Our "/forcewhine" doesnt equal yours, and you are not even FS. Every day you make up a thread with your suggestions, then back down from your suggestions as soon as people say they wouldnt be viable in game for whatever reason they point out, if you even listen to the points they bring forward, that is. To me it seems as if you wanted to have everything this game has to offer within the next 8 weeks, and that you want to be as "powerful" as you think Jedi are without the grind they have to do.

Man, you guys work well together... I am sure my guild would be the same , but I would feel wrong for asking them for somthing like this...even though I would not give it a second thought if one of my brothers wanted to do it...Im there for them and they for me.

Thanks for your post...do you have a full suit?

Thanks for your post...

First...if someone has a good Idea, I do listen. If their point is valid, then what is so wrong with changing my views. So I now see the importance of keeping Mandolorian Armor rare...So what if I dont want it to become as common and cheapas Jedi are. Anyone cansolo grindJedi. No one can solo the DWB...this makes mando special and Jedi ....well....dispointing

Ifthe Jedi profession was as hard to obtain asMando Armor...it may actually mean something to be a Jedi.

My position has not changed on theone issue this thread is all about...Now that our content is being cut, we would like to see more content in the form of quests.

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

I have played for over a year and killed many BS and have gotten, are you ready, NO DROPS! Thats right not one friggin drop, so I quit hunting Black Sun, its retarded, yeah you can have jedi rather easily but you want BH armor? LOL...sure, just do an insanly difficult, long and tedious grind to get an armor that isnt really all that great.....nah.....oh and make sure you have JEDI help you! LOL!

One problem with jedi being as hard as mando. What would the bounty hunters do show off about there recent NPC kill?

Well I think we should try it out before we hate it.I do think they need to make alot of changes to improve us not hurt us.

heh I think the ppl that need the most love in the game are smugglers, rangers, crafters, entertainers, just about anyone but Jedi and bh.

I understand, but what other profession in the game right now hunts theAlpha Class (Jedi)as part oftheir job? I have said it many times, I hope things improve for all other profs. But I am here (bh forums) talking about ways to improve our content....

If by alpha-class you mean a class of players who have to use strategy and technique to beat a normal combat profession because they have a lower DPS not always true, jedi can definetly attack faster and those with good sabers out damage the best rifles and they do so at a faster rate, worse heals than the professions that soul purpose is to heal maybe slightly less , less defenses dont jedi have an ability that increases their defenses by 500, no armor force armor, and 4 bars to manage, then yes, you should be equal. Lets nerf BH to the level of Jedi, now that Jedi have been nerfed so even a level 54 respec BH can kill a level 80 knight without breaking a sweat.

Any post-cu Jedi cannot get a higher dps,pre-cu flawless pearls cost 4 mil a piece on Eclipse, times that by 4 for a saber is 16 mil, and thats hoping they get perfect tunes, then factor in resource cost, as most of our resources for sabers on eclipse run between 50-300 cpu, THEN you need 20 exp pts from CA's, that alone is 30 mil on eclipse. So conservatively speaking for a pre-cu Jedi to have a saber that is comparably to a loot-made or looted rifle, we have to spend 50 mil and hope for good tunes/experiment sucesses. Where a good loot-made or looted weapon will go for 10 mil or less.

Master Healers spend more SP's in HEALING than a master doctor, and will be outhealed by one everytime, a doctor also has rez ability, armor, melee and ranged defenses, and an area heal.

Not everyone has force-armo, and it is not a real armor, it is also weaker than armor you could purchase if certified to wear. Not everyone has defender either. A master TK with novice doctor can outtank just a master defender.

Hi Guys, I'm a Master Commando/Master Bounty Hunter, and I've gotta say, my BH half is in a lot better shape than my Commando half. I think we should be fixing broken stuff before adding content for one of the best working professions in the game. As far as Mandalorian armor goes, It isn't really a BH specific armor (though many BHs like to think it is). Mandalorians were more commando than anything, it's just that the only guys in the movies that wore it happened to be bounty hunters. But lets look at Jango for a moment. We saw him using a flame thrower and a rocket launcher. Hmmm...what SWG profession uses weapons like that? If you ask me, Jango was a MBH/MC. Face it, the armor is more for commandos than BHs, so a BH specific quest for it is not a good idea. Now, I realize you've changed your opinion and decided that another BH specific armor should be added. Hmm...I'd say you're set there, since there is a "Bounty Hunter" armor in game already. But I do believe it should be made useful for Bounty Hunters. I say make it more attainable, and energy resistant (Why on earth were BHs given armor that is not good for Jedi fighting?). And it should be BH only, not assault. Now, you can't just stop there, You have to add perks for other professions as well. Commandos have been asking for ARC Trooper or Republic Commando armor for a while nowas anexample. Rangers need something. Smugglers need something. I think the hybrid profession need stuff in particular. I see the others as basic "soldier" classes, while the hybrids are "elites" since they require more dedication and skillpoints. Commandos, BHs, Squadleaders, Rangers, Smugglers, and CMs (I hope I didn't forget any) are all specialty professions, so they should have "special" stuff. Anyway, no offense, but I think you guys are very well off as far as content goes. You have your own armor, you get to hunt players, and you have your own terminals! Geez, Smugglers have nothing to smuggle! Commandos are demolitionists with nothing to destroy! I know both of those professions are seriously lacking content. How about we fix the forgotten professions and give them some content, then start adding things for those of us that are in good shape.

Oh, by the way, I do agree with your idea. BHs should have armor that is good for bounty hunting, and some BH specific content. Idea threads are always fun. Let's just remember that there are other aspects of the game that should take priority.
