Thread: A word from a Jedi...
2 BH´s onone target: Not too difficult...seems kinda random, but count on somewhere between 10-30 minutes to get the same mark.
3 BH´s...Very difficult. Coming close to "too frustrating to be worth it". The thing is...if the jedi isn´t a newcomer on the terms, then he probably has some guildies/alt who has his mission....which makes it impossible to find 3 open slots on him/her...
4 BH´s....Havent even bothered to try....
A simple solution would be to allow any number of BH to take a Jedi mission. Which ever BH/BH Group attacks first gets the agro. If the BH fails the Jedi mission fails for everyone. This would prevent BH from continually attacking a Jedi one group after another.
If the mission fails no other BH can take that Jedi's mission for 45 minutes to give the Jedi breathing room. The BH that attacked and failed would not be able to attack the Jedi for 48 hours.
If the BH mission is a sucess then mission fails for everyone else. The BH/BH Group gets paid and the Jedi visibility is reset.
Simple. Effective.

Would it be prefered to have Bountyhunter missions fail after 2-3 days thus preventin Jedi from having their alts or guildies sit on the missions?
That wouldn't solve anything. Just go pick up the mission every 2 days.
Then make it 20 minutes. I know most BH think that Jedi have all the time in the worl d to waste. But they enjoy playing the game like every other players. Even now most Jedi don't have 5 BH friends able to camp missions. Even if they do there is a huge difference in camping someones misison and spending game time fighting every 45 minutes. Which of course each BH would only be able to do every 48 hours.

easyly exploitible jedi's alt picks his own mission up his jedi kills his alt hes got 45 min to freely grind then ask a friend to do it (some jedi have over 3/4 bh alts just for the fun of it that and they use to FC)

Keep in mind we're not looking for the golden egg here. There needs to be a way to dump missiosn that players are sitting on thus reintroducing them back to the terms.
ABH should be able to "hire" 2-3 mercs (other BHs in their group) to up there firepower.

personally id say who ever has the richer alt would win this system go to kad ask a bh to pick up your mission pay him some $$ and then kill the BH. the differnce between this system and campers is those BH's will need to keep that mission (no biggie for jedi alts) but the BH's that do enjoy takeing missions and hunting. and depend on it for a majority of their crds will have to wait a long time before being able to go hunting again (jedi huntings addictive i tryed to stop 3 times for breaks and i keep getting withdraw
.)You planning on splitting the payout with them too?

Rating the difficulty for multiple BHs to get the same mark from a terminal how hard would you say it is to get a group of 1,2,3,4 or 5 BHs after the same jedi:
The Padawan Jedi who cry that 5 BH's ganked him is more BS then anything. Yes the potential is there but how often does it happen? So far I have not seen one screen shot from any Paddy's who claim this rare feat.
The other night the 3 of us attempted to take the same Mark.We tried for over a hourat the terminals,refresh, refresh, refresh, and refresh.... We just ended up giving up and picking our seperate marks.
i was able get a group of 4 after one jedi (like you said after an hours full of refreshing) then the g1t logged and we decided to go raiding
