Thread: Bounty Hunter Wishlist
Marc-Anthony's Wish List Explained, and Extended
1. Bounty Hunters NOT being visible on Jedi Radar.
What good is our first strike ability if Jedi see us coming 300m away, before we can even target them! Bounty Hunter should not be required to be Riflemen or Jedi
Hybrids to retain their first strike ability. Oh and one more thing its not like I am asking for a BH Cloaking device like other BHs, just something that will still allow us first strike and not make us insanely over-powered.
2. Mission difficulty rating be indicative of Bounties progress in Jedi.
As it is now all missions are difficulty 100, I believe it should be changed so that it gives a number based on how many skill points a Jedi has put in Jedi skills, not
including Novice boxes in the equation unless they are given a much smaller point base as to prevent padawans from inflating their difficulty artificially.
Some may argue that this brings back padawan griefing or some nonsense like that but with the changes to group visibility it will be much easier for a padawan to
grind and stay off the terminals, I see no reason why Jedi can not stay off the terminals and grind efficiently now.
3. Force Cloak/Force Run reuse timer be extended by ALOT, Like 10 minutes... or Jedi not being able to Cloak while Dizzy, Blind, Stunned, or whatever other states we can put on them, Rooted, snared, etc.
If a Jedi wants to run away and not fight the BH thats after him, I am fine with that. But to run away regen come back run away cloak come back cloaked dance
around and make emotes at BHs is stupid. They should have to choose to run at the begining of the fight, or at least only get one chance at it.
OK so that one is a big N-O, but maybe the devs could do something about AFK house sitting? Some possible way so that Hunters don't waste their time? Just a
thought.
5. The /duel bug fixed would be nice.
Sooner than later please.
6. +25 Healing efficiency in the Master Bounty Hunter Box.
Let me clarify this, I don't want Maste Bounty Hunters to get bacta shot or any type of healing move, just the bonus to efficiency so if the Bounty Hunter does wish to
include medic in his template it will give him a small edge.
7. Names of Targets on Kash
8. Location of Targets on Kash
9. A caring and responsive CSR that enforces SOE policies.
From rob0t:
1. More droids. If grouping isn't an option, at least give us the option to have a somewhat powerful droid to back us up. This would help the BH community *AND* the DE community (which, btw, is in dire need of some help).
2. More BH specific gadgets. Traps that work against PC's would increase the need for Rangers. More armor options for Bounty hunters, more bounty hunter weapons (perhaps ones that have a percentage to cause states). This would help the AS and WS communities.
3. A BH faction. One that ignores imp/reb faction (though you can still be imp/reb and be in it). Make it have a ranking system. Your rank would go up if you completed certain missions (a random Jedi mission), and go down in the event of failure. You could award faction points that can be used to purchase single use schematics for the items I listed above. I think it would be cool.
I REALLY like this idea.

Wish List
1. Bounty Hunters NOT being visible on Jedi Radar. Use Rfileman Cover or Grind Jedi XP for Force Cloak
2. Mission difficulty rating be indicative of Bounties progress in Jedi. Please elaborate
3. Force Cloak reuse timer be extended so that Force Cloak is only a one chance escape move and not part of Jedi combat. Not a bad idea but I don't see them taking this out of combat. Extending the cooldown would be a compromise.
4. Bomb Droids being able to actually enter houses. You might be on to something with that. But the devs would have to implement code for it ot only work with a BH/Jedi tef or some poor overt Crafter is going to have one hell of a surprise.
Any more..
Geaux Darkcloud and allowing bomb droids to enter private houses may seem to be a goood diea for you but there would be no safe havens which isnt fair really

Uberchief: Wanted renegades dont have any safe places. Being on the terms is cause you have done something wrong, and you should pay for that.
The only safe thing should be to stay off the terms.
Marc-anthony: All of them very good ideas! We who dont want to play rifleman/CM temp-BHs should have the possibility to hunt jedi too without risking running into a full temp knight. Today BH is almost unplayable as pistoleer/cabineer - too much of russian roulette.

Healing in the BH skill tree that compete with jedi healing.
That's kind of pushing it, don't you think?
This is not a signature.

/agree
Healing in the BH tree would be both ridiculous and uncalled for.
My personal wish list:
1. More droids. If grouping isn't an option, at least give us the option to have a somewhat powerful droid to back us up. This would help the BH community *AND* the DE community (which, btw, is in dire need of some help).

and bomb droids were never intended to break into someone house last i knew of

Great ideas, especially like the third faction one, I had that thought before too, it would be awesome to have a BH only faction, that we could spend faction points on Faction gadgets and other goodies that maybe could allow us to kill jedi easier... we would also suffer a penalty not being able to participate in the GCW.
