It seems like you are ignoring BHs that show you how to hunt a jedi. There are good answers here that show that it isn't 100% weighted towards the jedi. Consider that a BH can attack from 70m or more. With roots/snares it is VERY difficult for a melee profession to get into range. The jedi always runs when you see them? Do you expect anything different when the jedi is the ONLY one in the equation that has ANYTHING to lose in the fight? Most non-templated padawans realize that their chances of winning are pretty slim.
The OP says it's a problem because he hasn't killed a jedi in two days? How long did that investigation line take and how many bugged missions did you have? (I had a ton grinding a PvE only BH on Chilastra) That alone shoulld teach you the patience to not freak out about a two day inability to get your goal completed. Also, please consider that AFTER a grind that took as long as your template, the jedi player had to grind out the equivalent of 120million more weapons XP (this is considering combined weapons XP converting at 30:1 plus combat XP converting at 3:1. I can give the exact calculation if you need it), THEN there is the 36.5 million XP jedi template grind (at 1/5th the XP per kill and a "Long-term limiting factor" of the force bar). How fast can a player grind out the equivalent of 300 million MORE XP? I'll tell you that it takes far more than two days.
It appears that about half of the posters here are realistic and understand how difficult the jedi grind is (oh, and I realize that it's probably a lower percentage than that in the Jedi forums). It would appear that the rest expect the jedi hunt and kill to be an easy, fast and nearly guaranteed event. Considering that a death to me means losing 418k jedi XP, and that I attain jedi XP at the rate of about 30k XP/hr, this means that the kill takes 14 hours of my grinding time. The tracking/kill should take somewhere around that amount of time if there is to be ANY amount of fairness to the system.
Does anyone else think that costing a player 14 hours worth of time should be a guaranteed event that takes half an hour? Would it be more fair to just take the mission, launch a droid and have it return with the mark in carbonite?
I really have little problem with the XP loss system in the game since jedi isn't supposed to be easy. I DO have a problem with bounty hunters who expect their hunt to be EASY. The jedi suffers from the effort to regain the XP loss. You should at least have to work for the kill.
(oh, and please note that I posted here and in the Jedi forum stating that names on missions are not enough-Kashyyyk needs to give names as well.)

yeah, impossible so lets just b!tch and moan about it instead of learning or looking for post that might help. in fact why not just drop BH and pick up dancer.
Woot im dancer 1243 already!
Its not easy...
Honestly... I've only been successful against full temps by ganking 'em when they're engaged with something meaner than I am.
I've gone toe to toe with a 179k paddy who did ran then /unstick'd away from me on the Ryatt. I /unstick'd after him and he decided to stand and fight at the gate. With CM2xxx healing, I was never in much danger. But I got soundly spanked by a 212k in a similar situation.
It can be done, butluck and the template of your mark have a LOT to do with it. And you have to realize a lot of your marks are gonna get away... and when they stand and fight, you're gonna die more often than not.
