Thread: Regarding House-Jedi (Updated 10/14)
jlutz11 wrote:All of you BH that are crying about jedi in houses are missing the point.Until jedi have a reason to fight you, we will continue to avoid you. There is no point in me fighting you whatsoever (this point has been made countless times before). I gain nothing, but have a lot to lose. I don't see any of you crying about making it worth a jedi's time by giving yourself somthing to lose. If Jedi knew that there would be equal penalty to a BH for losing, I guarentee that we would be much more likely to come out and fight. As it stands now, most of us use our houses as a protest. We are not afraid of you. We are not afraid of losing xp, after all it can be made up. We are just sick and tired of being your game content when we dont want to be and when we have ABSOLUTLY no incentive to do so, and NOTHING to gain from it.Someone Please give me 1 good reason to fight a BH. There are none. When the game is changed and you actually have somthing to lose and there is actually risk involved then i will come out and fight, until then expect long waits while i am in my house AFK playing X-BOX..By the way....In the movies, when a bounty hunter attacked a jedi, he always had something to lose. He had to risk his life while trying to take out his mark. Where is the risk in what you do?I'm not coming out of my house, until i have a good reason to. And i don't really give a crap that it waste your time, droids, money, or makes you have a bad day.
QFE...
And in the movies, BHs certainly had quite a bit to lose by attacking Jedi. They could get their heads chopped off (Jango) or lose a hand (Zam Wasell) or even worse, if they failed sometimes they would be killed by another BH (Jango killing Zam when she failed on her mission).
So in the game, BH's basically have nothing to lose... they don't have to worry about being beheaded or losing their limbs... or being killed by another BH to *silence* them.
And if you are doing it for pride well here is a hint for you is a game and you are not killing a real jedi. ALL of you get a grip
And if is for the credits well you have the option to get the best loot in the game. enough said there
And if is to cause grief you are in part responsible for this "so" called problem

Whu not go preach this little lecture to the smuuglar community... you know, those who have nothing to smuggle and no way to smuggle it...
Go preach it to the entertainers who had their purposes stripped, and now serve very little role to anything except a minmal xp bonus....
Even without player bounties,with all the high end NPC missions which drop some of the highest loot in the game which have turned you into cash cows, you would still have an infinate amount more content than many other Professions.
The BH profession's sole purpose is NOT to hunt other players. It was a privaledge given a long time ago when SoE still wanted Jedi to be superior and rare. But SoE's views on the Jedi has changed drastically since then, and this player bounty system (one that has been the feeding fire to some of the most astounding amount of hatred between strangers I have ever known) is truly outdated and needs to go.
I don't think you are correct on this, however, I don't think you are 100% wrong. Its outdated and needs to be updated and by this I mean we need to have the long awaited player bounty system, so Jedi arent the only Players being hunted.

Well jedi/BH bounty system seems to cause more trouble than good to the game why would the rest of the player base would like to get involved in it?
hah, you were not misinterpreted. You have to remember over 60pct of the posters here posing as Bounty Hunters are just alts of Jedi. They have their own motives for doing what they do. Tanks picked up on those individualsquickly...and in time you will as well,

A recent post was made regarding removing Jedi from their houses if a Bounty Hunter is after them. I replied and was mis-interpreted.

I will proudly continue to make it my personal mission to waste the time of any bh that decides taking xp from me would be fun.

no, just no spike, please refrain from ever giving ideas again. how many times do i have to **edit**in type this jedi do NOT have to fight you ever. they CHOOSE to fight you. you dont choose to fight them
First of all, I will post any idea a fricken choose, whether you like it or not. It is your perogative to not like it, and mine to post it. Who the heck do you think you are? If you don't have a last name of Lucas and live at Skywalker Ranch on occasion, then you are equivilant to the smoldering heap left in the grass when the cows move away.
Secondly, why do you think there are Jedi Bounties to begin with. Why were Jedi Knights made perma overt in the last FRS? Why was Feighn Death nerfed and eventually taken away? Why are all these previous things you pansy Jedi abuse taken away and you made more accessable? BECASUE YOU ARE MEANT TO BE HUNTED TO EXTINCTION. You perform endless hours of grind to PROVIDE BOUNTY HUNTERS WITH SOME MOMENTARY ENTERTAINMENT.
There is one profession that has ever been told from the very begining they would be hunted, and it wasnt Image Designer. Any Jedi that doesnt want to face a Bounty Hunter is in the wrong profession.
So get one thing into your empty skull - it might not be my idea, but eventually your hiding places will all be striped away. You wil go into a house to hide and one day it wont help you. All your flames will do nothing to prevent it. If you threaten to quit the game, then you will just be one of the many Jedi the Devs didn't want playing the game anyway - which will solve the "too many Jedi" problem. We shout you right out of hiding in the water, we ripped FD out of your aresenal, and we will smoke your spider holes.
AMEN!

Darth_Spike wrote:I think someone else might have posted this, becasue I remember reading it somewhere, but I will re-state the idea here:What about some penalty in the way of additional XP loss to the Jedi for every minute they are within a structure AND withing 64 meters of a BH holding their Bounty. This penalty would accumilate over time and between Deaths. I don't know how much the OP stated, but enough so that the Jedi would really regret not facing and fighting the BH. We may not have anything to lose, but they would have even more to lose by delaying the inevitable...just fight and get it over with - win or lose.
Come on man read again what you wrote and tell me you dont think is stupid
the simple solution is click ctrl+D click the mission and abort it then go back get a new 1 see how simple it is

We may be meant to be hunted to extinction as you put it. But I can guarantee you I didn't grind for 3 months PreCU to give you momentary entertainment. The only entertainment you'll get from this black duck witl be yourself cloning.
BH's hunt Jedi, Jedi accept this, but us fighting you is OPTIONAL.
BH's will NEVER be able to enter a Jedi's private house. and BH's will NEVER be able to TEF a Jedi inside a private house.
Yes I have a BH alt, and I still don't see whats so hard about launching a Seeker when you get onplanet and monitor the Jedi for a few mins, if he doesn't move more than 10 metres in 5 mins then he's in a house. Dump the mission and get another one.
I remember the last time somebody in an important position in the world said that. Look how that's turning out.
