Thread: I Don't Want to Hunt Full Template Jedi!

Well as we all know, we are constantly hunting full template jedi since the patch. Ninet-five percent of the Jedi I have actually been able to find (due to bugs)have been full temp. Bounty Hunter must now be exclusively Full Temp Jedi killers in a general sense.


I do not want to hunt full template jedi for these reasons:


1) MyPERSONAL MISSIONand goal as a Bounty Hunter is to slow the grinding process for padawans and simulataneously slow the jedi population of full templates. Once they are to full temp Jedi, I could care less about them. They have done their time and overcome the challenge of getting to full temp. I respect that.


2) There is no XPLOSS that the full template Jedi truly cares about, mainly because they have already completed their temp and do not grind. Therefore, who cares! No biggie if the Jedi loses, which takes the intensity out of the fight.


3) When I hunted previous to the patch, I would hunt 100K Jedi to 224K Jedi. This kept greatVARIETY in my hunts and was very challenging at times. Now when I hunt, I expect to have one type of fight. A fight with a full temp Jedi (likely Master Saber/Master Defense) that lasts forever and makes me expend great quantities of high priced food/drink/drugs. Dont get me wrong. I like a challenge, but the same exact challenge each time I take a mission that typically ends up in stalemate for some of the best BHers? Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. LOL God help a Bounty Hunter who isn't elite now because there is no reason for them to stayaround.




*****Before the 80 jedi that post on this thread starting crying and screaming "You don't want to hunt full template becuase you suck as a Bounty Hunter and are weak!" I would like to say this is not the reason. I can in fact take full template jedi and I have. I have just simply lost general purpose as a Bounty Hunter and I'm not for sure if I can find a purpose for myself in this new system; I hope so, because BH is the only thing that attracts me to this game currently. Bounty Hunting currently feels like grinding and this is not a good thing

Ummm compromises usuallyinvolve a little give-and-take from both sides - Not giving one side more, and more, and more. Sure, the mission terminals got a few enhancements that are nice for hunters, but in comparison, it was hardly a compromise.

Hmmm, you dont want to hunt high level Jedi? I have heard alot of people say that, but most say that because there not good at pvp and only like to hunt targets that they know they can easily kill.


Been a BH, i love this publish as the jedi missions are more of a challange, and not used as a cheap way to earn some easy credits by killing low lvl Padawans.


But gone are those days now! Woot!

I agree to this tread.


I dont either want to hunt full temp. Gives me nothing, and as a MBH/Mcarb I cant take 'em solo. Im not in this for the money, Im in this cuz of population control, as the devs has designed the game. The devs has taken into calculation that jedi grind is to be slowed down very much by BHs killing them if they fail to stay off the terms. It's NOT supposed to be an AFK grinding profession that you grind to full temp in one week.


I dont want to go Mrifleman/CM to be able to do my daily work. I want to keep my battlearmor and carbines.


I don't care about the names or the factions of the jedis - they are all illegal and shall die that way regardless of discrimination.


The only thing I do care about is thier current skills. I want the rewards back on the terms, its sucide to go on random bounites, as theres 60% full temps on the terms right now.



Publ 20 sux. End of story

Put yourself in the shoes of the Padawans who were being hunted constantly. What if you, as a bounty hunter, kept reaching the verge of Investigation 3, and someone came along and killed you or you died in PvE and the next thing you know, you're a couple million in the hole, totally barred from advancing in your chosen profession?


Stack on top of this some griefer kept targetting you and hunting you endlessly because you were an easy kill. People don't like being unable to advance at all. That's why people advocated the idea that if they were gonna keep exp loss, then they needed to do away with negative xp, which was what I wanted.


Regardless of what many feel, showing the level of the Paddie, vis a vis the payout level, along with the Paddies name, was SOE-sanctioned griefing, plain and simple, as there were some BH's who were seriously abusing the system. Personally, I never accumulated much vis at all post-CU and almost never pre-CU. Now that I'm off the terms, I can foresee never being on them again till I am a fully templated Jedi, and I choose to be.

If I were a paddie I would have stayed hidden far out on a remote planet. Living high up on a mountin, doing my jedi training solo. Id rarely go down from the mountin and visit cities.


AND I would almost never get hunted. AND it would take me very, very long time to become jedi...as it is (was)ment to be.
