I know most of you have already realized this and stopped hunting jedi....well who could blame you?


It's a waste of time. Who wants to fight an hour long fight to drain a full templates force, everytime? Not to mention the drain it puts on your armor and weapons if they aren't all adk'd. The cost in droids, food, buffs, and the time isn't worth it. Definetly don't give uber joe jedi the satisfaction of being hunted and killing you quickly with his exploited saber. and don't give the cloaking wussies the opportunity to stasis you then cloak and laugh at you.


Just go for the loot, I'd say completely forget the jedi, let them nerf each other to oblivion and we'll get rich from npcs.


Let the jedi die from boredom.

Thats sort of what I plan to do. Maybe if BH just stop hunting Jedi altogether they'll realize just how bad we have it in this new system.

I couldnt agree any more.


But, I belive or at least hope SOE will realise how unbalanced the whole jedi vs bounty hunter game is and make it even. Id happily sit for hours on end grinding something thats similar to the jedi village in order to improve my chances of killing these high end jedi or at least scaring the cheek out of them.


I love the idea of these new loot drops from the bounty hunter npc's but Im worried the drops will be similar crap to what everything else drops in this game even after the loot drop publish that was supposed to have fixed this. You can enhance a game by adding better loot drops, but you cant nerf the other side of it and hope this new loot will make up for it.

Its not the only way, but its the easiest. Cover makes it even easier, he won't even be able to see you on his radar. Pop some detirum pyro and crispic and crit shot him when hes got a quarter of his health left. Burst run up and DB. You probably already knew this but how hard is that?

S'like that already on my server. The chances of finding PvP that does not involve a jedi gank squad is so slim, everytime it happends I fight at a disadvantage from sheer shock of having a lone target actually trying to kill me with something else than a glowstick. 'course, last lad I ran into used a blaster and hit me with CM attacks, but he also used force infusion on himself, so I suppose it's doubtful whether that counts.


Oh well. At least loot farming in this manner appeals to me, in difference to camping the same spot over and over.

That's why I went to WoW


I was sick of it


Plus the loot system is fun (sometimes frustrating though), there is no "god" class and there's Battlefields!


10 vs 10 CTF and a 40 vs 40 Conquest (go aroundcapturing bases, destroying stuff, good stuff)


and the honor system there is for everyone!

No offense if you went to WoW, why the flock are you still reading SWG forums, if WoW is so great why even dwell here?



Sometimes I sit and I ask myself why im here, and then i realize 14 bucks a month is sure in the hell cheaper than going to the bar everynight for a month , plus here you get more fights, my bar sucks

I couldn't agree with you more. We should still take a few jedi missions once in a while and only attack when it benefits us. That seems to be the problem these days. Heck with trying to take on a full template thats MLS/MDef, just watch them and see what they do and strike at the right time. It's pointless to take on a full temp jedi nowadays because they just cloak and run and then talk trash. I've seen too many jedi duel in theed and BH's will wait until their health gets below 50. Then bomb droid, KD,crit crit ..dead. Why waste time draining out their force? It's just not worth. Wait for the right time to strike and unleash. Think of it as unleashing Achilles on the beach of Troy. You BH's are lions, take it...it's yours!

IT NOT UNBALANCED, YOUR JUST BAD. Jedi are so easy to kill, but its morons likes you who run up to jedi when they are fully fooded and ready. Here take a tip. Watch them. Don't run up and attack the first 5 mins you see them. Stalk them wait until they are vulnerable, Jedis go out and hunt and pvp and etc. Watch them kill a couple lairs so you know their force is down alot. BE SMART. Most Jedi duel people alot, wait till they have a quarter health left and one shot them. Of course your not going to win against jedi a 1 on 1 if hes prepared Unless your a MCM or theira respec Jedi. You were never meant to. In design They are meant to be1.5X more powerful then you and no matter how much you whine it won't change that. They kind of grinded alot longer than you did.But you have the power to attack him whenever you want. Use it.






Yeah stalking for hours upon hours thats real fun. No wonder why they have god complexes going on they people like you stalking them trying to get their autograph. Every single time I catch a Jedi in a duel they end the duel and have me go against him not that I mind but that completely negates the whole point of me stalking him, its happened several times. Then you have the big problem with preparing to go against Jedi is Bounty Hunters have ALOT of disposible necessities. Armor, food, weapons, buff. Meanwhile Jedi have it all built right in.


I'm looking forward to the BH NPC loot, hope they include other mandolorian armor components.
