You know I have been seeing this a LOT lately since publish 20. I was wondering why the last few bounties have been hanging around faction bases lately. Hmm new exploit by the jedi huh?

Now my issue is this. Devs stuck tef in to stop jedi running into private strutures to avoid death. NOW they just run into rebel or imperial bases and say go overt if you want to kill me. Yeah like a lone bh can take on a whole base and a jedi.

DEVS sort tef out to stop jedi running into faction bases its impossible to get them out and get our kill. They just fight lose and run inside.

Fellow bhs bump this as high as you can. Maybe then this issue will be resolved. Well probably not but tanks at least have a word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Factional Bases are for PvP. No tef can apply to them or it would break the GCW. Sounds like what you need in that case is to go combatant or special forces and have some buddies come along to take some of the mobs. Be aware thought htat since factional bases are indeed designed as military structures you'll lose your key ability to kite and the Jedi Melee template will be at its most effective.

The bottom line is the Jedi doesn't have an obligation to kill you or be killed by you, all the Jedi is required to do is survive. It is your job to kill him/her.

who cares if they run into a faction base. As another poster said go combatant and hunt same faction only, simple solution. I often use bases to hide out in while I am stalking my mark and go combatant for that very reason. I am Imperial, but there is no loyalty there, simply another tool I can use to get my mark. We may have first strike and jedi may have signed up for forced PvP, but nothing says they have to stay and fight, why would they. Especially when jedi have no earthly idea what kind of player is after them. For jedi it is all risk and no reward, other than getting off the terms if they lose.

If that's the only way, so be it. Or go neutral or better yet a BH faction. Whatever, do what ya have to do to get the kill.

There is nothing wrong with a jedi running into a faction base.

Vtg, that's one of the consequences of becoming a Jedi, the game design allows you to be attackable at any given time when you have a bounty on your head, forced PVP is up to you by letting yourself get on the terms or staying off it.

Don't like forced PVP, then either don't play Jedi or stay logged off til your vis wears out. Jedi that are finished or near finished are exactly the opposite, they're LOOKING for PVP and wait for BHs to visit them.

Oh and harassment is slim now with the new BH system, you can't pick and choose a mark anymore, it's all random- and I noticed a single Jedi running around cloaked all day today hopping planets, and noticed 3 BHs chasing him, if he thinks those BHs will just give up and go away, he's wrong because more BHs will pick his randomly listed mission on the term and he'll be chased some more- a total waste of HIS time.

Now since you seem to be good at giving advices let me see if youre good at taking advices:

Don't like it that jedi don't wanna die? Then dont play Bh or stay logged off.

Use common sense and think about what you can expect when hunting a jedi. Stop whining, start doing something.

I have always been against that, but you know what? It may just be time to hunt my faction Jedi since I have run into the faction base problem twice.

People are correct, you can't change the TEF system, it will ruin the GCW, so while Jedi can and will use that to their advantage, it will be smart for BHs to take that advantage away and hunt the same faction.

---

Now of course you can hunt what you want, but you should consider the fact that you might be ruining the gcw for you. Unless you wanna go solo

ah well nvm...

You have the only sanctioned profession in the gamethat can harrass other players and force them into a situation they did not want or expect and inflict a penalty that takes a typical jedi player a couple weeks to recover from, simply because you want to and it pays well if you succeed.

You may not want it, but you explicitly agreed to it when you became a padawan. Don't like it? Then you shouldn't be playing an optional class.

Where did I say that I didn't like the Jedi to run away to avoid dying? Only problem I ever had lately was some bozo using a LOS bug and hopping into an AV-21 when he was at 0 mind? I don't care if the Jedi runs, I eventually get them again sooner or later, I'm very consistant.
