Give us the Jebi names back too, a BH in the films or comics wouldnt get a mission when he didnt know the target, thats just plain silly! Just because the Jedi shout "its unfair 5 people with my mission coming for me" whoop dee doo, now most have cloak in their template and make first strike redundant!

As I see it theres two sides of the BH terminal problem. Names are good for us in order to do recon and have forehand information about the mark when we pick the mission.

The bad side is that if names are displayed jedi alt BHs can hold thier mission(s), so there cant form any groups of BHsto huntthe mark. The way we have it today ALL marks get hunted and they cant hide behind alt BHs anymore. Thats why you still encounter full temps jedis that are really suxy at pvp (cause thy dont have any experiance of it at all).

I also think the new FRS system will only give FRS points for the jedi who is holding his mission, with anonymous terms it will be very hard for a jedi character to find his mission with his alt BH for FRS exploiting too.

If we got a recon/scouting tool for examination of the mark at very long distance to reveal some skillinfo it would be great. That way there should be NO reason at all for names on the terms, you should get the mark info when you find your mark and /recon him.

What do you guys think?

and again more targets offline. Do the Dev team what the word 'fix' actually means?

"As I see it theres two sides of the BH terminal problem. Names are good for us in order to do recon and have forehand information about the mark when we pick the mission."

This used to work when missions didn't decay in 3 days, this sort of tactic takes days because a Jedi is usually travelling alot or loitering with his friends/guildies and takes patience. I personally don't care about names from droids, I just grab a mission get the sig and go to where the Jedi is, regardless of who it is- screw getting the name, it's a JEDI for crying out loud and I have his mission.

Try being in my shoes pre-9 with broken droids, you had to have connections to knowing where the Jedi lives and often travels to when logged on, I used to stand in Theed for days, sometimes a week to wait for the Jedi to show up because I was unable to track him.

We have it good NOW, why bother asking for the name on the droid? So that you know if it's a knight and you can cancel your mission? REAL BHs just hunt the mark regardless of who it is. I killed me a MLS/MDef the other day and I can tell you what a joy it was.
