What the heck is wrong with the CSRs? Hello, CSRs????? The jedi down there are exploiting the line-of-sight issues to be invulnerable to both PvE and PvP.


You're supposed to ban exploiters.


It would be SOOOOOOOOOOO easy to catch these people in the act. BAN THEM! We don't want exploiters playing Jedi anyway!

Red= Aggro and attackable


Blue/Purple = Unattackable


Major advantage a BH has: First strike


If you don't know these things, I fail to see how you could be anything but a respec BH...well maybe a PvE bh, bit if you are one of those, why do you even care about the Rryatt.


I also never implied that your ignorance in any way excused anyone else of anything.

EXACTLY. If we're blue/purple we shouldnt get the disadvantage of being a red dot to a Jedi. With the duel exploit we are practically a red dot to our mark.

Its not just jeedai unfortunately. On my many trips down lately, any BH that begins to lose a battle with his enemy instantly goes to the dead zone as well, so blaming it on jeedai anymore isnt the end all to it. Sad that BH'ers have to use this as well, it just makes it acceptable by even more jeedai to use it.

Just report any jedi that does this there. i had these LOS exploit happen to me last weekend. A friend and i hunt together and we took a mission that led us to kasshyyk, after we found em we attacked but he got to the LOS exploit spot before i and my friend could incap em. I reported em to a CSR on saturday, it look about a day to get a response and was told that they are aware of this and that they would be contracting the individual in question. I was told that what ever happens to him is betweenthe offenderand SOE. I have not seen em online sinceso not sure if he is taking a break or something happened like a temporary ban.


Who knows, just keep reporting it and something will be done eventually. either they will punish the offenders or they fix the LOS issue and prevent it from happening the first place.

There cannot be an online game that doesnt have some kind of bug or exploits. Without them the devs wouldnt have anything to do. Also, do u want us to stand in the open with a big sign over our head saying "COME GET ME BH AND MAKE ME LOSE ALOT OF EXP AND HOURS OF WORK." The LoS bug is practically the only thing that keeps us alive, and what does it matter to u... you dont lose ANYTHING at all in the trails, not even decaying items. If there is an expoit out there u can be sure that someone will use it on all sides, BH, jedi, TKM, etc.


BTW, im in the 3rd screeny

Fixed.


Here in lies the problem. An exploit is an exploit, no matter the profession. Personally, i do not condone any actions such as this LOS bug under any circumstances. Every single one of these posts turns into a flame war with both professions pointing fingers saying, "you did it first, it must make it ok for us to do it."


My take on the issue? Let the jedi have their full templates. As soon as 90% of the population has their jedi, they'll be nerfed faster than you can shake a stick at. Besides, the "honor" of being a jedi is meaningless now (in most cases). I'll admit, I had a lot of respect for those first few unlock-ers. But these days, it's just another jedi.


As for the bug itself, I gather no one knows what the hell they're going to do about it (aka, they can't fix it). I'm fairly sure they're aware of it, but hell, half of the population are jedi; and since Jedi have the most to gain by completely eliminating factors that were designed to make the game more challenging, we hear about Jedi using it the most.

Maybe its just me. But it looks likeall you did was further justify the fact that something needs to be done about Kashyyk.

OK, I know all this LoS stuff is bad, I don't condone it, and I think it is pure wrongness. The DEV's really do need to fix it yes, but think of it this way. The xp in there is slower than dantooine or any other planet, and when a BH comes, who wants to see hours of work go down the drain in 3 shots and a deathblow? It's discouraging (tho part of the jedi process). And yes I unlocked right after the village initially came out, so I did have to grind in solitude for 4 or 5 months.


Anyways, what about when the BH uses it? I had a BH use it on me when he was nearly dead while I was helpin out some grinders. It isn't just one sided ya know. Sure it seems like (and probably is true) that more jedi use it, but it is not just us. BH's use it too. The only difference is jedi don't makes posts about it so you don't notice it.

It has been posted many many times that Jedi are not the only ones who use the LoS bug. Everyone is well aware of it wich is why so many people are pushing the issue of doing something about Kashyyk. It is overly abused.


And as far as all the Jedi's "Hard Work"...its not. Ive been down there, Ive watched and listened and hung out with the Jedi down in the Trails. Its not Hard Work. They dont even have to drive to the next mission, much less go to a town to get one. When they get ready to log, they move to the Bugged bridge and log. And log back on with free and safe exp for the taking, while climbing the Jedi ladder faster than ever before.

You know it would be nice if they could do something about the AFK macroing jedi down there. Just my 2 cents.
