Many old time BH's will remember the old method of Bounty Hunting where you and only you could damage the Mark. We just got done hooking this back up. To everyone else but the BH the mark will appear white. The intent of these missions was to follow a very cannon style experience of the solo Boba Fett Bounty Hunter vs the target. The loot quality and drop rates are too favorable to let these missions be farmed en masse by large groups. I just would like to know from the players who have been testing these if they are able to win vs the Boss level Marks.
These missions are intended to be challenging with the Mark always a few levels higher than the difficulty of the mission.

No one will be getting rich off of anything. I don't think you folks are using your heads.
If you were a jedi, and you had an alt, it would probably be a BH. Now, using what little reasoning power you have, answer this question.
Would a jedi pay 10 million for a LS acc+16, or would they log in with their alt and hunt NPC's until they get one, and in the process get several other drops that they can sell themselves? Seems pretty logical to me.
I'm not sure that you've ever been to the caves on talus, but they don't drop quality CA's and AA's like this, bud.
I'm not saying 'nerf the lewt', I'm saying remove jedi SEA's from the mix. Problem solved.

this may also be a way to decrease the amount of jeds that are on at one time, if they can make millions of credits for a few hours of playtime on a non jedi alt, especially with the draw of good jedi loot, this will definitely decrease the visible jedis as they are out hunting for money and loot.
i dunno just a thought i had

Thus making it even LESS profitable to be a bounty hunter.

Having hunted the Double golden elite 82's, I can say they are extremely refreshing. The threat of iminent death is thrilling and I wouldn't have it changed for anything. So many things in the current publish of this game are dumbed down.......please ........please do not change this vibrant profession to suit thewants of the under-achievers.
As far as the loot goes. Its not overly great. Some is good (SEA's) but I'll tell you what....the first time you reach into the pocket of a 40k ham golden elite corpse and pull out a jar of bugs...well...lol, its a real shock.
Have fun with this my brothers. Its better than ever and life is good.

Well, testings so far on these new things..and so far, none have been "gold elite", has shown, that a MBH without healing is a dead or very much hurting MBH.
One target, at wich I actually had 0040 medic, gave me such a beating, I ran out of mind, hid behind harvesters, ran to the nearest group of NPC's in hope the mob used a area attack..and more..before I could claim the bounty.
So..if you're a MBH, and wanna hunt? Start configuring your template to have healing..and stock up on mind regen food.
wow. These guys sound tough. Put all your training from hunting jedi to practice, you must. High quality armor, psg, and fast gun you must have to complete the mission.
Rifles with root? Are these guys mostly using pistols and carbs? Just wondering if kiting is working.
1200 pt Stim-Ds and Ruby Bliel won't suffice? I usually add in a Neutron Pixie, Thundercloud, Breath of Heaven or Swirl, and synthsteak if needed. I hope that's sufficient.
