Thread: Player Structures and BH TEF system
- This isn't giving us anything. We aren't supposed to be able to go into structures right now anyways, it's just that there is a bug being exploited that allows BH and Jedi to cheat. Stopping players from cheating may help us, but it isn't something that should count as new content for BH or Jedi. SOE is simply attempting to fix their mistake so that things are the way they should have been all along.
- As stated, this isn't supposed to be happening anyways. What's to say that this new system won't malfunction as well?
- Until the kashyyk issue is resolved, this really isn't helping anyone. Most Jedi are found on Kashyyk. You can't have player structures on Kashyyk.
3. Was my first thought when I read about this fix.
2. Crossed my mind, but was more upset over issue 3 to care.
1. Didn't even cross my mind because I am so very upset with issue 3.

QFE
I can live with this patch, if the devs just fix Kashyyyk.

It's not a fix for a widely used exploit, it's a great new feature! Now be thankful and kneel down in reverence.
What's really horrible is that most Jedi are going to take it this way. Not the kneeling and revering of course, but most of the exploiters I've come across seem to be completely unaware that they shouldn't be able to enter a structure during combat.
It's almost as bad as when our payouts were "increased" from 15k; most Jedi tookit as a "help the BH" patch, even though the increase only followed a 6 month long decrease from 150k.

OK, since the TEF for the BH doesnt change (and cant be changed since he has to start combat, therefor has to attack) we only need to check Jedi side.
The bug/exploit atm is: The Jedi can (sometimes?) enter a structure even when he/she attacked the BH. He/She should only be able to do that if he/she didnt attack at all(current system) or didnt attack for 10(?) minutes.
The change: It doesnt matter if the Jedi attacks back or not: He/She will get a TEF (for now 2.5 mins?) as soon as he/she is in combat with the BH.
Check your update notes, this is exactly what's happening
---Opposing factional TEF and "bounty hunter TEF" are applied to both combatants as soon as any of the combatants attacks.
