why not there is going to be 1000's of jedi and i didnt say give to every one just the vet bounty hunter with 2 years service.


How many of them is there on each server.Not alot





Enough to make it cheap. You have every right to not care, I do not want you not to voice your opinion. However I just want to make sure my opinion is heard in hopes of getting others to rally to my side.


Also, anyone with a token respec who has 2 years service (or just any fast grinder) could switch to MBH now. He'd be an MBH and still have 2 years service, so he'd get the armor too. Anyone who met those requirements could do it. Like a 2 year entertainer vet who respec'd now, and had never been in pvp.


I also dislike any form of elitism.

All I am saying is that some of had a4-6 month grind for MBH...We just want the recognition we deserve as veteran players.


I think player bounties andor some other significant reward is favorable in this case. After all the Jedi are getting some cool stuff.








Now, how many of us have said for how long now how much we hated Jedi for getting everything they wanted, and how cheap it was?

Now we want to be just like them?

Sure, the blue glowy is cool, but it's cheap. Cheap will make it boring after a while, when every Joe Jedi'dude is out there as one. Besides, it's not like we should expect vet rewards to ever be useful. Most of the time it's just a trinket. I'd rather have them pay attention to improving the game than cheapening something cool like Mandalorian armor.


Thanks for the attention Sam.

Elder Master Bounty Hunter sounds kinda hinky. Why not ask for Jedi Hunter?

I skimmed most of this thread lol. But this seems like a cool idea as well. Elder X or what not the jedi's get will be to remind them and new jedi of the power they used to have. Jedi Hunter or whatever (as long as it's cool and fitting to the prof like elder/master is for jedi) would do the same for bounty hunters.


I'm not saying not to pursue any of the other options listed, but the title would be cool for ya bh's.



'Forced pvp' is gone!!! All it took was removing the TKM, Brawler, Pikeman, Swordsman, Scout, Ranger, Carbineer, Pistoleer, Rifleman, Marksman, CH, BE professions. Nerfing the crafters even more. Nerfing jedi and turning them into a starter class. Destroying the ability to change professions. But hey, least the carebear jedi are no longer hunted.

That's precisely my point


Jedi didn't want bounties. Now they won't have them. I'm not ever going to bother with that topic again (unless specifically approached by the Jedi community)


Smugglers have been clamoring for an opt-in system for months. We've wanted to hunt them for just as long


Something that two professionssupporthas a better chance of being implemented than something that is onlysupported by one

Not sure if the idea's been brought up because there have been so many opt-in schemes around, but...


What about an opt-in system that's not predicated on profession?


Another thought I had about it, and it'd require some work to iron out the details, but...what about a reward to the hunted based on how long they were able to avoid capture/deathblow? You'd have to do things like make sure the reward doesn't increase if you're in a private structure/private instance (think Avatar vs Ryatt Trails) or anywhere else that not every one has access to. Basically the more time you spend in public areas/adventure planets/etc, the higher your rating goes. Unsure of whether this would include space or not.


This would encourage people to take part in the system, I believe, and in a manner that-at first glance-doesn't appear to be exploitable. The longer you survive being vulnerable, the higher the reward. Should be an exponential based increase rather than a linear one. That way someone who evades capture for, say 40 days, is rewarded more than someone who got killed 10 times in 40 days.

I just chose Jedi Hunter because of the era that's coming to a close and, well, because it'd be a groovy title.

actually, why not an opt-in for everyone and then finally make it like it is advertised from Tiggs


Bounty Hunter = Boba Fett


Bounty Hunters chase the worst foes in the galaxy. You will learn to use whatever dirty tricks you must to bring your prey down.

When someone needs an enemy taken care of, they hire Bounty Hunters to do their dirty work. Tracking down and eliminating people are what Bounty Hunters do best. As a Bounty Hunter, you must learn the tricks of ambush and assault so your prey does not escape.



it should be possible to place a bounty on everyone partaking in the opt-in system, so everyone that likes to be hunted, can get hunted then.

If i dislike someone and he is in the opt-in system i can then go and place a bounty on his head, like described by Tiggs.
