Thread: WHATS REALLY HAPPENING WITH JEDI GRIEFING
What I dont understand is why we cant just do this:
1) Remove group adding to visibility
2) If you complete a misson against a Jedi with success you cannot take it again for a set amount of time.
Removing the names from the terminals just makes no sense what so ever. There is no amount of twisted logic anyone can use to convince me of that.
Jabba: "I need you to kill a powerful enemy...I cant tell you who is is...and if he is on Kashyyyk I cant tell you where he is....oh and umm....I cant tell you how much I am going to pay you either. But nevermind any of that just get going !"

Jedi griefing was a DIRECT result of Jedi obtaining vis while grouped...this was a direct result of the changes made BY the Devs. Now they have fixed the "group vis" problem BUT the recourse and changes are STILL going to go live. It was a "set up" and if anyone can't see that, then they are too far on the other side of the fence.
I REFUSE to believe that Jedi were grieved so much as to justify this as a solution. YES....a "type" of Jedi was hunted more then another....
HEY DEVS....THAT'S BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GIVE US THE POWER NEEDED TO KILL THE FULL PADDIES!
It won't stop me though....you can slow me down...but you can't force me to attack. If I pull a full temp...I'll drop that missions faster then FR3, and try it again.
Believe it.

It's not just griefing, per se. The main problem was that bounty hunters were going after Jedi in gank squads. This violated the Dev's game design regarding bounty hunter vs. jedi strength. It is clear that full template Jedi are 1.5x the power of a single bounty hunter. This, for the most part, is true. They achieve this balance. Gank squads broke this balance and thus had to be addressed -- which is what the anonymous Jedi missions are doing.
If you dislike the anonymous Jedi mission changes, you can thank the non-skill-having bounty hunters in Gank Squads (such as the guy who killed a Jedi's jetpack in another recent post), not the griefers, for this.

Sorry but even after Patch 19 my jedi is stronger than any 3 bh's combined, and no I don't have m.defender, nor do I have force cloak or any powers for that matter. MLS-4004 Enhancer-4100 Healer-0440 Defender with a 714dps 1handed saber = all bh die. 4 came for me, I got them seperated with snares and roots and killed them all easilly. As having a BH myself, I found this disheartening. Any Jedi that's over 200k crying about gank squads is a newb that wants all the power and none of the risk. BH's were ganked left and right for months and months with the TEF wars when many of us would hunt solo. Nothing was done till finally Pub 13 or 14 or whatever one did away with the TEF. And I seriously doubt any gank squad's were coming after anyone under 180k. And if they were that jedi was probably a house sitting water baby, in which case more than one may be needed to effectively slow down the jedi in order to complete the mission.
If they're going to do this they need to nerf jedi more or elevate BH's more. Any MBH template needs to be on par with a 220 skillpoint jedi, end of discussion. Don't give me the length of grind crap. Jedi is supposed to be a novelty toon, not a god class.

The bounty hunters who travel in gank squads are no-skill-having newbs. If 4 of them couldn't kill you, then they most definitely were total newbs.

You really don't have a clue do you?
READ THIS AND GET ONE
Although I'm sorry the links in that thread are dead...believe me, it DID happen. The Jedi took 58,691 points of damage.

How is that link relevant to post-Publish 19 Jedi healing rate/costs? Answer: absolutely nothing.
Tip though: CM DoTs neutralize force infusion rather nicely. Also, even if none of those 4 bounty hunters were combat medics,I don't see how 4 bounty hunters could not deal out enough damage to overwhelm a Jedi's healing. How is that? Answer: those 4 bounty hunters are clearly total newbs who don't even bother to have good weapons, nor bothered to eat enough accuracy foods to make their shots land.

two things:
To SOE: you reap what you sow, making BH better while making almost every other profession worse makes people be BH. Your fault, not ours.
To AFK grinders(jedi or not): that's what you get for being lazy and trying to manipulate the system. I would kill you that many times too, and laugh about it for days. Your laziness is not our concern, you cannot cry about it being dishonorable when your actions are themselves dishonorable.
