I just want to thank SOE for the first three months of fun. Thereafter, the BH prof has become a ridiculous pattern of hoping with each new patch that BHerswould recieve equal treatment and/or restitution for the many hours of dedicated game-play. And it's evident that this is true. Any jedi who claims otherwise is doing so solely out of fear of having another profession on equal footing.
I appologize, SOE, for playing a game in hopes of having fun. My idea of fun is not clicking the mouse button 1 million times while grinding on bols. If it were soley the mouse clicking that qualified a player for dev attention, I would be the equivalent to a full temp jedi. As would many other non-jedi players. And so it goes. This computer program is warped around grinding bols and clicking the mouse button.
10 Reasons for BHers to reconsider the value of "SWG" or the previously coined game "Jedi Accademy":
1. The BH mission loot system is nowdecent howeverNOT FUN.
2. Majority of player marks are near to full temps now.
3. All a jedi needs to avoid BH is Cloak.
4.Vast majority of Jedi can avoid BH by usingForce Run.
5. KD bug has never been fixed.
6. Exploited Sabers are not sufficiently punished.
7. BH skill tree is too weak and a waste for everything other than traking jedi.
8. Jedi skill point loss is too grand, thus creating major hostilities.
9. Many non-Jedi are giving up the game!
10. Physical exercise, social environments, or other games are available...
I cannot blame SOE for streamlining the reform of Galixies into "Jedi Accademy" because it has created revenue from all jedi sheep!

cry more? Lol bh's got so much after CU it ain't fun, and it's so damn funny that you blame jedi on the pub 21. It was bh's ganking 50k padawans that got that nerf.
1. Some enjoy it, and it's not to far from other combat systems so you must think the game sucks. Why are you still here?
2. No, we were always there. It's just that now you can pick and select to gank the low lvl noobs.
3. ANd all a bh needs to avoid a jedi is roots and snares. Seriously how dumb are you? you have roots, snares, kd's ,dzes to keep them in range. Hell you could even use a pet. Just because your to stupid to stop it doesn't mean it's the devs fault.
4. Again, see number 3. It's your fault for letting the mark get away, not the mark or your devs. Your not fighting retarded npc's get used to it.
5. There's an easy work around, just use another speciel then the kd' recovery i hear works fine. I've gotten it once since CU/shrug. I think it has to do if your jaming the kd recory button.
6. What exploited sabers? Name the sploit. Oh and i guess it's okay if non-jedi sploit their weapons(pikes with 30m+ range) but if a jedi does it OMG IT'S HORRIBLE.
7. ROFL, you don't get it your meant to compilment other profs not be your own. Adv crit is the signle most dmg speciel in game with expcetion to sniper shot and maybe power hit. You ge a kd, a cone attack and when states work you get an attack for ever state in the game. Not to mention all the defense mods(which no other ranged prof gets) and all your mods are general ranged mods helping any ranged prof.
8. No, getting jedi is to easy now. SOmething has to be done.
9. Ah but who cares about jedi lol, selfish pr!ck.
10. There's always been that............Got a life?
Quite frankly it's the morons like you that keep paying for a game even though they don't like it that i think is SOE's major money, keep paying for something you hate and be stupid at it's finest!

Going on year 3 of SWG (beta tester).
Honestly the game was better without Jedi. That being said:
1. The BH mission loot system is nowdecent howeverNOT FUN.
I enjoy it more when it comes to the battle but miss the NPC targets moving around.
2. Majority of player marks are near to full temps now.
Keeping the player base even is a lost cause. The Jedi Whine FTW.
3. All a jedi needs to avoid BH is Cloak.
There are ways to defeat this.
4.Vast majority of Jedi can avoid BH by usingForce Run.
There are ways to defeat this as well.
5. KD bug has never been fixed.
The bug goes both ways. Don't like it, install 2GB of RAM and it is gone.
6. Exploited Sabers are not sufficiently punished.
See a Jedi with one report it and move along.
7. BH skill tree is too weak and a waste for everything other than traking jedi.
BH is on top of the game with everyone that isn't a Jedi. Yes they have stronger skills but they whine louder then anyone else.
8. Jedi skill point loss is too grand, thus creating major hostilities.
Jedi are just doing spin groups now so they earn 1 million XP an hour. Not much of a loss anymore.
9. Many non-Jedi are giving up the game!
Should they? They get everything they whine for, why leave now?
10. Physical exercise, social environments, or other games are available...
Physical exercise has been around for a few years, as have social environments,and other games. What does that have to do with Bounty Hunting.
Wish there was a non-jedi server. I would go there in a instant. The problem is that they would be so over crowded and all the others servers would be filled with nothing but Jedi.

true the game was ALOT better without jedi ... maybe even when the first few started popping out and it was perma death thats what it SHOULD be.. not perma death but everone should be able to attack and make the jedi more rare and actually give it a name... this whole game has gone down the crapper... CU sucks dmg v.s heal is the only thing now.. when i came back to this game i started to become fs but when the village came i notice how any jedi there were... it just destroys the game when 3 jedi are standing right next to each other at the starport..

hey, thanks for your replies. btw, i also have 2GB of RAM and got KD bugin my last hunt which cost me to burn the health buff crystal before 3hrs...
I would really be interested in knowing how to penetrate the jedi's cloak ability. My guildie said that the bomb droid scheme doesn't work. As for the agro trick, most jedi on Bloodfin hang out in Theed and other cities for PVP where it is almost impossible to find MOBs that would agro. The problem remains, in my opinion, that the devs have made it so all a low level and "killable" jedi needs to avoid any and almost every threatening situation is cloak.
Please provide info on other techniques...

as far as the ganking goes, taking away the gp option from BHers was enough. The devs added other major nerfs to Pub 21 that derserve to be mentioned again.
1 Names gone, I can no longer conduct the role playing in my BH guild where a full temp jedi becomes "wanted" by the guild. Also, I must now recieve hate tells from jedi whichinclude the" take my mission" boast and be able to do absolutely nothing other than swallow the jedi's words and complain to them about how the devs have prevented me from getting their mission.
2 difficulty indicator gone. why should I take a player mission when the Jedi that will stay and fight will always kill me unless i have taken a health buff crystal. all other jedi cloak or root and force run.

Well since you bumped it here goes ( I agree on only two points):
1. The BH mission loot system is nowdecent howeverNOT FUN.
I think it is alot of fun so it is a matter of opinion.
2. Majority of player marks are near to full temps now.
Not sure what the point is. You can kill full temps in the game.I certainly have (check sig) and I am not great at PvP.
3. All a jedi needs to avoid BH is Cloak.
It is a cool power and the Jedi invested in it.
4.Vast majority of Jedi can avoid BH by usingForce Run.
Two words : stopping shot. Works and sticks almost everytime.
5. KD bug has never been fixed.
Just type /dump while the bug is looping and try agian, has worked every single time I have tried it. I now have the /dump icon in my tool bar.
6. Exploited Sabers are not sufficiently punished.
Whatever. /shrug I also run into jedi that have crappy sabers and have no hope of winning against me, it goes both ways.
7. BH skill tree is too weak and a waste for everything other than traking jedi.
KD, ADV crit, and Torso are all main shots of mine and I have done well with them. Duelist stance is alsovery usefuland the macro you create can really make a big difference:
8. Jedi skill point loss is too grand, thus creating major hostilities.
I agree on this point.
9. Many non-Jedi are giving up the game!
Not on my server.
10. Physical exercise, social environments, or other games are available...
I agree.
