" Group members no longer add to a Jedi's visibility "


This is a much needed change, as jedi trying to do the right thing shouldnt be on the terms.

HOWEVER, wouldnt it have been better to implement this BEFORE nerfing the terms?

Most of the paddys getting slaughtered are because theyre getting group vis. Implementing all these changes

at once are just going to create more problems.

I have to agree with this. I always though getting viz pts from group members was stupid. After all, why would group members who are usually friends report each other.

Well,a friendcould get drunk and be watching a hawt twi'lek dancer who happens to be an imperial spy. And she starts asking questions and that friend accidentally lets it slip. So, you're friend has just reported you and you get to be on the terms.

They should have made a better solution then that. First off many jedi the smart ones will never be vis, and thus will master out unconfronted. Though I agree that people deserve the chance to play with one another. A far better solution would be a more nifty system.


Jedi would not get group visibility unless they were grouped with another jedi. Afterall a jedi is always faceing being turned or the mental manipulations of others in the movies. They are more at risk. A common grunt would never be singled out as being aligned with a jedi even temporarily.


I think that would serve to meld jedi more fully with the rest of the community. Make it so they have to support their non jedi counterparts and rely upon them.

with this system, there could never EVER be a Master / Padawan system.

ppl are really going to piss off some jedi with this, /disband in the middle of a fight and you've got some vis and cloaked jedi will be able to sit there for a long time giving the jedi lots of vis

I'd rather see that jedi gets xp as grouped if they are grinding solo.


Jedi profession is ment to be a hermit way of life, far away from groups of other players.


If it was treated that way - forceing players to be lonewolfs as jedis - maybe not that many should choose the jedi path?


The devs should encourage those who wants to play as the jedis lives in the Ep IV and V are. We are actually still supposed to be in timeline, since the devs hasn't made any official statements to change this.

I think ever since lucas sold the game off to SoE, they havent given a sh it about timeline or star wars "reality". They just put that crap up to give people some hope, all it is anymore is them listening to the whiners on the boards and fan fests.....its how they ruined EQ and thats exactly how they will ruin this game...further.

This is by far the BEST thing they could do for Jedi. After all this IS an MMORPG, correct?

Its way too easy to grind Jedi now. Although I agree with the no visibility in groups but there should be certain exceptions. Like any non force sensetives should give the Jedi visibility even in groups or Jedi of opposite factions or a dark Jedi would give a light Jedi visibility. It seems a little easy to grond Jedi now. All you need is a decent macro that changes clothes/weapons and a good group of friends.
