tonight i dragged my msl alt with me on all my missions and the result was, well sucesfull in part, i was using the single buff high yeild and the group buff blaz of glory (50% chance to crit on any type od shot) i had 6 fights tonight. the damge im doing is extreme to say the least, over a 1k hit on a mdef on a crit shot, none of the jedi i encoutred clould live with the damge and 4 ran (so much for snare) 1 died and i crashed in the middle of the last one.
In conclusion if i was a jedi and i saw me comming with my sl in tow i would run.
on a side note only jedi that did ok where ones with psgs, so i had to swich to my kin rifle which sucks.
my sl dueled a jedi i was doing 800 damge to, but he used paint target blaze of glory and called shot with a crappy scatter and hit him for 1800 after armour
yay for Squad Leaders
man, this is bogus on both sides of the fence. a BH should NEVER be able to be assisted when hunting a jedi mark.
i just cannot believe the devs did not see this happening? are they all so narrowminded?
Take some skillpoints and grab novice SL, I think to get the really high numbers you need "called shot". Maybe even the x.4.x.x line since SL buffs stack. You and your alt could both use the same buffs.
If you try it, tell us how it goes.

This post made me smile. Quickest way for unbalancing things to get fixed in game is for the ppl using them to brag about it. Keep em coming
Well first as someone that has unlocked jedi, and uses both his characters for BHs I don't have a problem with the changes. All this argument about the 3 day grind vs a year grind really isn't even a valid argument. The person that goes Jedi has to live with it, the reward is being a jedi, and you get all kinds of cool colors and powers other professions have to rely on docs or cms for. To me there should be no alpha class period, as it totally takes away the skill factor from the game. And as far as extreme dmg everyone knows that alternating saberthrow and head hit is deadly..add in a power hit and jedi have massive dmg attacks as well..on top of that what stops a jedi from having a sl in their spin group? I think this has a lot to do with the GCW being dead. Maybe they're trying to slowly bring back the roles of "normal" professions into pvp.
The dmg on the SL specials may be a little harsh but ifa BH is, say MSL/MBH/Carb0400/Medic0010/senses1000 or something then see no prob with a bh using blaze of glory on himself(or whole group I suppose)and call shotting a jedi. I dunno if draggin the alt in tow was intended but its smart and it works, gotta hand that to you.

awesome...i can actually win finally....especially now since i have been given another gift from the dev team to make it so my toon which took 3 days to grind can pwn a toon that took someone a year to get......what a tool!
amazing how "fair" the bh community sees this.
Not all bounty hunters exploit this. I think it is unbalanced and needs to be fixed. atleast untill i come upon a jedi with a squad leader in tow doing basicly the same thing. Im sure the days of jedi exploiting it will be coiming soon to a server near you.
