This really goes for all professions. But for the BH I came up with an idea that might give you incentive to go after Knights and try solo and stop calling for nerfs.
As a Jedi...yes I am a Knight...I have never called for nerfs on the BH community other than pre CU gank squads. I simply accept that you have certain skills that may or may not kill me. That is par for the course. I chose my template knowing I had weaknesses.
Here was an idea i had for the BH profession that enhances it and does not Nerf it to oblivion.
Badges. Why dont you get badges for kills?
Example of some badges:
Has killed a Knight Solo
Has killed 20 Jedi (BH given an armor repair kit for 10 full total repairs to his armor.)
Has killed 50 Jedi (BHgiven BH piece of armor perhaps a helmet.)
Has killed 75Jedi (BH given +10 Droid Tracking mod tape or one you think would be better and reasonable)
Has earned Vader honor for killing100 Jedi (BH Given +10 Skill tape for weapon accuracy)
Has Killed 150 Jedi (BH given special goggles to see a cloaked Jedi with a chance given to knock the Jedi out of a cloaked state. Make this item non-tradeable.)
Has killed 200 Jedi (BH given a Jet Pack)
Look for ways to enhance your own profession and we all benifit. Look to nerf the other players and we all lose because the Devs are dragging us all down. I always wondered why BH are not given badges for kills....
Now keep in mind that if this idea goes into play there needs to be some equal incentive for Jedi so they dont just take off running because there is nothing init for them to stay and fight.

Very cool ideas.
I've always thought jedi should have some incentive to stay too.

problem is if we stop, and decent jedi stop, there will still be 500 whiney respec jedi crying their hearts out for nerfs every time a BH kills them.

I think for the most part people are in this whine trend and have not given consideration how to strengthen themselves. Of course...the Devs penchant for ignoring the community does not help and the player base grows frustrated and the whining grows in direct relation to frustration levels.

we need to have devs play the damn game imho, constant upgrades fueled my message boards are what ruined class balance in EQ, made that game a joke compared to what it was originaly.
If devs actualy play a BH and a jedi on a live server, they might actualy get a clue about how to balance them.

Yup. You go tthat right. Well off to see Fantastic 4. I hope you guys really think about this. Perhaps it could give you a single voice and something to aim for?
Have a good day!

*cough* Ithink I know a dev who plays bh occasionally.... and he may have been instrumental in many of the recent changes. Maybe I'm just chasing shadows though. /shrug
He hasnt logged on in some time.

I wish they'd do enhancements over nerfing.
Everytime I see someone with an idea to enhance on the BH forum two lines down I see a Jedi begin a large flame war. Does this happen on the Jedi forum too?
