I think this can work, we just needsome dedicated members of theBH community across all servers to test this theory. The rumoris thatit is possible for us to revive the days of the BH group hunt, we just won't be able to select a jedi by name; rather, faction and online status: but we can still (multiple BH's collectivly) get the same mission at the same time. Remember folks, there are still 5 missions generated per Jedi, so the mechanics stillexists in game for us to do this!


Here are my small results thus far.


Mission 1:


Myself and a fellow hunter decided to grab a rebel jedi mission. The mission had a random generated name, i.e. Anaxi Darklighter, with the same theme, i.e. vicious Jedi Murderer. The flavour text was also the same. " A Naboo farming family was slain by a Jedi....blah blah blah..." They payouts were also close to each other; both were 47k. We accepted the launched our Arakyd droids, and they came back with the same planet: Lok. We went to Lok, launched our seekers, and the same name and location was returned. We headed out, killed our mark with a two pronged attack, and collected the bounty.


Mission Success!


Mission 2:


We tried again, this time with an Imperial mission. Everything was the same but the payouts were different. Launched the droids. Mine was Rori, his was Kashyyyk. No luck.


Mission 3:


Same as mission one, but once again, with no luck. The Arakyd's returned with different planet locations.


We both then had to log, but I'd thouhg I'd come here and share my results. What we did not try were Jake the Fixer missions. and we have not tested this theory for long.


The first mission could have been simple luck, but to be honest I'm not so sure. I think we may be on to something. What we need are people with their guilds and fellow BH's trying and testing this theory, and work out a system for us to once again huntin groups, and take down the harder marks.


Please, try this on your servers and postyour results.


Regards,

Well now since the terms only have online jedi, the chances of getting the same jedi are higher now these days. Say it's that time of night where there is just about nobody on but insomniacs. Say there are about 20 jedi on, 18 are IMP and 2 are REB. You both get REB jedi missions and the chances of getting the same jedi are very high.


I know these are crappy numbers to work with but o well.

Yep. You can even make sure you both get the same mission by having one BH hold the mission while the other keeps trying to get the same Jedi. If you have a few friends and a little time, you could even have a group of 5 BHs with the same Jedi mission.

thanks for the current responses so far. Has anyone else tried testing this?
