Ok, it was posted by Tiggs : Bounty Hunter Profession: Signifcantly altered NPC Bounty Missions NPC's and Loot.

Well, that is great. I believe they did this since majority of the time we bh's try to locate our bounty they are not online. If our bounties are not online, they are on Kashyyyk. We are supposed to get jedi names from the droid right? Doesn't work if your target is onKashyyykl. Please explain to me how in the heck am I supposed to find out the name of my target.

I honestly believe that the devs are increasing our loot and npc lvl's to keep us awayfrom low lvl jediso that they can grind away peacefully (while AFK) on Kashyyyk.

It just shows you whos side the devs are on.

From the bottom of my heart. Here's to you Dev's /rude

There are people like myself who have taken up the Bounty Hunter profession just because it provides the "Tank" component for ranged professions. I am not interested in Jedi PvP. The LoS issues on Kashyyyk are irrelevant to me on both my characters since Publish 20.

What the developers are doing is long overdue; the PvE component of Bounty Hunting has long been in need of a revamp. The developers are making the PvE component of Bounty Hunter a viable option, and I'm sure that this will be very welcome to those players who are working their way up the Investigation tree, as well as those of us who don't mind taking PvEmissions that pay out *very* well relative to the other mission terminals.

Take off your self-imposed blinders and you'll see that this move is a good move for Bounty Hunting in general.

so you'd rather get 30k for an npc mission that works we'll say 70% of the time and requires you to hop to different planets, as opposed to over 36k for a mission that doesn't require the use of droids and works 99% of the time?

I could get with a hunting group on dant an make as much if not more in the same time as it takes to do npc bounties and I have less of a chance for building spawn or water spawn npc.

I guess you didn't get the memo: bounty hunter is for Jedi alts to farm glowstick innards.

so i guess if they don't totally screw all jedi then they're not on your side... It's called making the game fun for more people then just you... With the CU we've ALL had to make sacrifices.... Grow up... deal with it and play on.

NGE sucks.

Actually, there're a lot of former Inv3 Bounty Hunters out there who have to grind to Master now...

If they were gonna fix up the NPC missions, nowwas a very good time to do it.

I gotta say, if u are halfway decent u will make much more on NPC bounties than hunting on Dantooine...

I think the prob. w/ pub 20 is that there are still a massive amount of jedi on the terms that are not online, it's gotta stop. Other than that they did well. But 'that' happens to be a big time drain, and really slower than the old way of findfriending them....I am happy that faction is finally on the terms. Hopefully the status will be switched so ONLY online jedi have active missions. Ill never understand why devs still keep BHs at terminals all the damn time, i just want to be out hunting, dont care if its a surprise full temp, i want action!

( have to admit , wish i hadnt used my token respec

, BH just too much hassle right now)

Now that we have player ships and have cut the costs down by about 3-4k per bounty on the remote planets, as well as the loss of the incredible waits at the old starports, I would say this is true.

It's just my opinion as a pvp'er. How can bh's hunt their target on Kashyyyk if we can't get their name from our droid?

Basically, a jedi can grind all he wants on Kashyyyk without the worry of being attacked by a bh. Since Kashyyyk is a quest based world. I say remove exp pts from the quests. There are plenty of other planets to grind for exp.
