Are there plans for a Jedi NPC? I enjoy hunting Jedi. However, I have stopped due to the XP loss it causes other players. I would like to see a plan to allow us to hunt NPC Jedi. I know NPC Jedi exist, as I have done the Sith Holocron quest on Dantooine, so it's not a big stretch to make this happen.


Thank you for your consideration.

Am I wrong here...


I thought the DEVs gave MBHs the power to hunt player Jedi as a form of Game content / Jedi population control. Am I missing the "Mark"? Why then give the ability to hunt Jedi. I believe your intentions to be honorable andNo rule says you have to hunt Player Jedi, However, If one does not hunt Jedi then what is ones PURPOSE in the game? Why be a Bounty Hunter???... Anyone??? It is important you know that I respect your thoughts and views. I wish you the best. This was not a flame.


Thanks

i like the idea for the fact that it would increase the difficulty of some of the NPC missions. mix it up a bit you know.

I was kicking around this idea with a few guildies the other night. The Sith Holocron quest referred to above is one that starts from a guy by the name of Luthik at the Jedi Temple Ruins POI on Dantooine.


Really fun quest series. In the end you end up facing a level 80+ "Untrained Padawan" who has a lot of hitpoint, but a pretty weak LS. I farmed him for a while just to get ten of the Padawan Braids you get at the end for use as trophies later on.


Anyways, back to the point. NPC Jedi Bounties would be cool, but I think it might further harm immersion. Granted, it would be cool to seea BH roll into town and open fire on that level 80 NPC standing aside minding his own business, but I think the last thing we need is more glowbats flying around.

I appreciate the replies.


Immersion: It would be more immersive if you had quests and or missions related to NPC Jedi. Dynamic narrative can be created, and the player can be more immersed than either a) destroying a noob player or b) getting destroyed by a LJK / DJK.


Glowbats: It would be nice to see people participate in Order 66 / GCW destruction of the Jedi. Sure, there would be more NPCs hanging about the cities, but that would make it more engaging.


There are so many ways to make this equitable and allow people to still participate in PvP. What if someone's game style does not deal in PvP, then they can not enjoy the bounty hunter profession.
