Bounty Hunter Archive

I am relatively new to the Smuggler profession 0-3-3-4

I wanted to know what the general consensus is on those among you who would be willing to have a bounty placed on them by a PC or NPC.

I ask because it seems like this would give us instant content...increase immersion....add flavor.

I'm a scoundrel...and i'd like for the Empire/Jabba/Val to treat me as such.

Me too, but only if they inroduced extra content for us along with it - ways of avoiding detection by BH's for instance, disguises, fake ID's, that kind of thing

Hey this is kind of off topic but it would be an AWESOME thing.. Ok instead of the pointless brawler req or smuggler why not have image design in the entertainer tree to 4, same "speedbump" but it would actually help a smuggler, like a disguise for example. Sure it doesent work on NPC's but hey, the blue twi'lek who low blowed you in the cantina could be that green twi'lek slicing your weapon the next day. hehe justa thought

i'm all for it

Now that sounds like an ace idea. Seems obvious that a smuggler would work hard at not being recognised in open society so why not in game.

Image designers already feel that role....and there is still that small little problem of your name being placed right over your head.

You still have the TEF problem. Unless they implement it differently from the current Jedi bounty system, the BH will ALWAYS get the first shot. If I knew I had a bounty on my head, you could be sure I'd shoot anything that looked suspicious. There's no way I'd wait for it to come around. Or is it common knowledge that Greedo got the first shot on Han?

I agree with Enigma,smuggler bounties would only work if the smuggler could attack the Bounty Hunter without waiting to get shot first.

Having someoneblue on the radar walk right up behind you and start shooting would not be fun.

yeah it would be awesome, but then again....I see eye shot spammed enough in PVE....

I want a bonty on my head sooo bad. It would be soo fun

another possibility for this, to ease the danger of the smuggler is the ability to slice these terminals (ONLY WHEN TARGETED BY A BH) to either confuse the bounty hunter to his location or to possibly change the target with the slicing skills

Course you realise that if the smuggler is targeted a lot, it could affect the slicing market, but I think it would add some flavor to the profession

This is true, but I think the best part of having a bounty on your head would be the anticipation/cat and mouse of it all.

I think the development team could easily iron out the TEF issue...or simply have it so that both parties are TEF'd.

Sure you'd have to keep hitting TAB...but TAB in this case represents your awareness of whats going on around you.

The Spam aspect of the game will change anyway...the new combat system will change all of that.

Yeah, I hated that scene with the remastered "A New Hope" where it looked like greedo got the first shot off and missed.

Han shot him under the table, point blank, first. Period. I have no idea why they changed that.
