Bounty Hunter Archive

You simply cannot pack out enough damage as one lone BH to drop a master defender. It's impossible. You miss 50% of the time. You cant state the jedi 75% of the time. You simply cannot kill that individual on your own. Combine defender with force infusion and / or force valor and then they jedi player regenerates faster than you can damage him/her.

Through the combat upgrate lvl system SOE has yet again polarised professions favoured by gamers. Master Defenser is one such profession. 70% of jedi on Bria are Master Defender.

If SOE is going to institute the changes suggested for publish 20 where we cannot see who we're hunting, we need to be able to share the BH mission with a fellow BH.

It's not about one bounty hunterbeing able to the majority of jedi out there. My gripe with this suggestion is that one BH can stand 20 meters away from a jedi, unload constantly with a55 SAC scatter, without losing any action pool and the jedi will not even have to expend force on healing him/herself because of force valor / force infusion.

You need to take this idea back to the drawing board SOE and consult a few more players.

Alternativly you could just keep the current system and introduce a bounty search tool to save BH's wasting so much time.

Result: BH posse turns up and kills the Jedi. Jedi dissapears off the terminals. BH's cannot hunt jedi anymore as visibility is reset.

If the jedi insists on grinding in a public area / high vis area, BH's are free to kill the jedi again.

Im sorry if you consider this greifing. I consider this population control.

It will bring a hard edge back to the game thats been missing for a long time.

Jedi as stated previously should been low profile and remain hidden. A player chooses to play the jedi knowing full well what to expect when he/she first crafts that lightsaber. Allowing BH's to search for their targets will force jedi back underground.

Think it through.

Jedi is grinding in high Vis area.

Jedi is singled out by a group of BH's and killed.

Jedi vis is reset to zero

BH's cannot hunt jedi till jedi gets vis.

n.b. griefing is defined as repeated harrasment of a player.

The jedi now has a choice. He'sbeen killed and lost XP.

Jedi can either a) Go grind in a low vis area. b) Go back and grind in a high vis area again.

A) No vis = no BH's will be able to track a jedi

B) Jedi is stupid enough to grind in a high vis area, and the same BH's pick up his mission again and kill him, those BH's cannot be accused of greifing.

This is exactly the same thing as kicking a wasps nest and wondering why you got stung.

Prehaps to help jedi, a meter showing them how much Vis they will gain by using their lightsaber in their surroundings would be preferential allowing them to make informed choices as when it is / is not safe to grind.

back to point 3, if you are going to have a nameless BH mission system, we BH's need to be able to share those mission with other BH's.

Else the CU have a lot more rebalancing to be put into effect.

Ive been preaching that same point all over these boards.

The long and short of it is, you know what your signing up for when you become a jedi. But people dont care, they want all the power and no disadvantage. They dont care about the continuity of the universe, and the fact jedi should be KOS every, except maybe rebel bases.

I dont think SOE is going to care, the fact Droids dont work on kashyk is proof enough they want jedi to be able to get away with murder, because they want people to continue to pay for thier product.

Right now, i have the game until publish 20 is released, ill see how that goes, and ill probably end up quitting the game for a third time.

Its just not worth the aggrivation.

Dont you guys remember in Return of the Jedi when Yoda said to luke
"luke, you must kill 1000 ewoks to become l33t !"
or
"Luke, the force is only to be use for knowledge and defense, never for attack, unless your slaughtering defensless ewoks for force crystals"

This is my crafting account. I usually dont let this account get caught up in emotionally charged arguments but im so insensed after reading this horsehockey (polite phrase for SH**). Someone needs a slap in the face. Have these people even played BH, fought a master defender running force infusion / valor?

GET REAL HERE GUYS - SERIOUSLY.
