Bounty Hunter Archive

Hi long time reader, first time poster. Now I know there have been tons of posts for advice on templates and other such character building, but my post comes from a different view. I already have my template- I just need advice on making it better. I am a Master bounty hunter and Creature handler with 4000 in combat medic. I was BH 1444 way back when you could not kill the cons because they were white all the time and my race (Wookiee) had no armor, lol. Well time has gone by and I’m back up there again with armor. My question is what six attachment mods in my armor would suit me best as I have no other complimentary ranged profession? I only PvE and never PvP- just do not like it for some reason. So no jedi hunting for me.

My guess is…

+25 General ranged speed (Increases to all guns)
+25 General ranged accuracy (Increases to all guns)
+25 Rifle Speed (Pick up the slow rifle speeds)
+25 Ranged defense (Help to not get shot as much)
+25 Melee defense (I fight creatures too so this is good)
+25 Pistol defense (More defense when up close)

…I know these may not be the best so that is why I’m asking. Because the cost to gather these and the huge cost to ADK the whole set of armor I want it to be the right choice. I want to ADK the set to preserve the AA and I have a hard time finding my armor in stock, lol

Thanks for any help in advance.

I had thought that might be the next best choice. I was pistoleer before so my best gun is a pistol but I see the wisdom in Rifles. Looks like I’ll add a good rifle to the list too, lol. Some day my pets should tank well for me but the patch for that is fairly new still. So we will have to see. Thanks for you input.

New version (1.1)
+25 General ranged speed (Increases to all guns)
+25 General ranged accuracy (Increases to all guns)
+25 Rifle Speed (Pick up the slow rifle speeds)
+25 Rifle Accuracy (Pick up the slow rifle speeds)
+25 Ranged defense (Help to not get shot as much)
+25 Melee defense (I fight creatures too so this is good)

Any other input or is this just the best option by far?

One last /bump before I start shopping

if you are going after npc's, you prolly dont need any of that...

+25 Rifle Defense (one mod adds to BOTH Ranged/Melee Def when rifle is equipped)

the above poster is right Rifle Def adds both melee and ranged def....

but why not get...

+25 ranged def

+25 melee def

and +25 rifle def

?

i got two sweet AA's during a BH hunt. one had mele defense +12 w/ ranged accuracy +13 and the other had terrain negotiation +9 w/ healing efficiency +8

Plan to put these on my Jedi hunting armor

I have found KD defense is the thing I need the most.... some of those marks knock me down so quick, and i just lie there about 1 minute b4 incap. My defenses let me last awhile while I take a nap!

Don't forget about belts and shirts that can be worn under armor. They can be either armor or clothing. I'd suggest you go with clothing attachments if you can't find pre-nerf belts and shirts that allow armor attachments.

Also the new clothing can be worn to give the melee, ranged, and terrain neg +25 in 2 pieces if you get a good tailor/BE out there. then stack those with mods.

I would love to wear clothes under my armor but unfortunately as I am a wookiee a full set of armor only leaves me a bio enhanced belt

New version (1.2)
+25 General ranged speed (Increases to all guns)
+25 General ranged accuracy (Increases to all guns)
+25 Rifle Speed (Pick up the slow rifle speeds)
+25 Rifle Accuracy (Pick up the slow rifle speeds)
+25 Rifle Defense (one mod adds to BOTH Ranged/Melee Def when rifle is equipped)
+25 Defense vs Knockdown

does defense vs KD still work? Or is it one of the old crappy mods you get like battle fatigue healing.
