Thread: I am still not getting names

Okay, I realize I am dumber than a box of rocks, but please someone help me out.

I have yet to get a Jedi's name when I hunt them. Regardless of wether I use probes, seekers (track or seek).


Now granted I have only hadsix hunting experiences since pub 20.4 on Kashyyyk, 1 on Dant, and 1 on Dath.


Am I just missing the name (I assume it will be a system message), or am I bugged?


I should point out the pattern I have:


Get the mission.

Get the Bio Sig.

Launch a seeker on Track to see if the mark is on Kashyyyk.

If Kashyyyk go and launch a seeker (track and seek) to get name: no avail.

If not on Kashyyyk launch probe and get planet.

Go to planet and launch seeker (seek) to get name: no avail.

Launch seeker on track to get to my mark and fight until someone clones.


Also interesting side note: Three of my Kashyyyk missions were the same AFK Jedi in the anti-los place on the Ryatt Trail. AAArgh! What are the odds?



Quitters never win, winners never quit, but those who never win AND never quit are idiots.

you won't get them on kashykk, you will have target the jedi and check the radial menu to see if you have the attack option. This tactic works fine as long as you click or tab fast trhough the targets.


Sometimes you have to be within 500 meters or less ot get name some times you don't. Also if you track a mark to endor as an exmaple, and the mark is in teh deathwatch bunker, you have to go inside the bunker and launch a droid, at that time you should getthe name. tracking also works while the mark is in space (seems ot sometimes, I have tracked marks in kashykk space and gotten a name)

Based on my experience from hunting jedi since publish 20,


You don't ever get the names. You get a waypoint with your seeker droids. You have to figure out the name for yourself. My missions never got updated with a name. Hunted jedi on Tattoine and Naboo.

I have gotten names but only after repeated seekers. I'm hunting a Jedi on Kashyyyk right now and I've yet to get a name. I've tried both seek and track commands on the seeker.

Your chance of getting the name seems related to your distance from the target.


Try stopping 1000m out and launching one in "seek" mode. You'll never get one in "track" mode, that's in the patch notes.
