the jedi have a reward /doh there vis goes away Vis doesnt go away unless the Jedi dies, nooblet. Fighting the BH just gives you more vis.
bh get decayed armor and weapons unless they want to spend about 80 mil on adk's
im sure asada will kill the person in less then 30 minutes you dont know asada with all his sploits j/k but he is good
and most bh dont run when they are about to lose like all jedi even happened to me when the prson is full temp
but im going to sleep to many noob jedis and stupid ideas people talking about stuff when they dotnknow what there talking about Yes, you going to bed will lower the number of people talking about stuff then they dont know what theyre talking about by exactly 1. (I mean you, nooblet).

Most BH don't run when they're going to die? DUH! Why would we? We don't lose anything. Jedi vis does NOT go away when they kill their mission holder, it GOES UP. And a full-temp Jedi would have no reason to run, unless they wanted to keep a PvP record, which is worthy of running, if you're serious PvP. Honestly, you say stupid ideas, stupid people talking about stuff they don't know. Read up, kid.

ROFL. As if there weren't already enough disincentives to hunting Jedi these days...

LOL. This is the EXACT reason why my proposal is needed, and why the Jedi have a legitimate complaint: they have A LOT to lose, whilst the BH "(doesn't) have anything to lose" (paraphrased using your own words). They hardly lose anything, give me a break. BH killing a Jedi aren't even a speed bump in their grind anymore, more like a bug splatter on their windshield.
Bounty hunters have no penalties for losing. They should have some. The penalties I propose are very, very small.
1. BH Gaining Visibility and getting on the terms: If you get on the terminals from losing to a Jedi then so what. You get hunted by another BH and are inconvenienced for a couple of minutes. There are no penalties for PvP death and you do not lose XP. This pales in comparison to the Jedi's penalties for death. This is just stupid IMO. Why would I hunt a "loser" BH rather than a Jedi? I would be more inclined to *help* the "loser" BH.
2. BH Debt: If you lose to a BH and incur BH Debt then all you will get is reduced payouts for one or two missions until you dig yourself out of debt. This pales in comparison to the Jedi's penalties for death. Bring back perma-death orsaber TEFor permanent SF status to all Jediand I will take a penalty when I die to Jedi. Make it so *anyone* can join in killing an opposing faction Jedi...
3. BH Maiming: a 10% debuff for 24 hours doesn't affect the typical combatant -- he won't even notice it. The only ones who care about being at 100% combat readiness are the elite hardcore PvP'ers who most likely will not die to a BH anyways. Why should only BH vs Jedi death result in a debuff when no other form of this penalty exists anywhere? BTW, you say your penalty recommendations are small, but this is a stickler with me. This penalty is excessive. For 24 hours I have reduced HAM and regen? You'd be required to get doc buffs (if you can find them) just to go out and hunt the NPC boss marks and not be assured a death. Basically you give me 24 hours of a gimp character that can do nothing but lame single chevron elites or grind bol mission, or well go into space. You sure as heck cannot fight another Jedi or NPC double chevron during that time because if you lose it would just make your life that much worse for 24 more hours.
What if you lose to an NPC mark? Do the same rules apply? Are they cummulative? Can successful NPC mark kills count against BH debt?
If you want to get rid of Jedi losing experience, get rid of PC Jedi on the terminals. Make the entire game carebear. Then the ongoing flame war between the two boards can stop and recommendations like this can forever be forgotten.
I'm sorry that I am not the super duper uber Jedi killing BH that several of you claim here on the boards, but I'm just not in to getting my butt handed to me by full template Jedi just to receive a gimped character that has to dig out of a hole to be back to square one.
FRS is the 800 pound gorilla in the room right now when it comes to future BH v. Jedi interractions. As such, it's pointless to suggest or speculate until it's known how FRS is going to play into all this.

did Mace Winduget paid when he killed jango fett? NO i think not.... and even if mace was offered money,
because he killed him, im pretty sure he would have turned it down. jedi down kill for profit.
/thread /idea
Mace Windu also wouldn't be stealing +25 SEAs off of DJM's he kills then auction them off to the highest bidder. Yet there are no shortages of Light Jedi who do this.
Here is the only reward a Jedi should get.
Visability brought down to zero anda 24 hour grace period on visability (meaning no visability can be gained in that 24 hours).
Nothing more.
