Before the terminal revamp, I only went after 220k+ bountied jedi. As a result I seldom had marks on Kashyyyk. With the recent terminal revamp bounty hunters are forced to hunt padawan, which was nessecary tostopvarious playersgriefing a jedi.60-70% of my marks are now on kashyyyk and I don't wish to waste time running through 10 instances of the ryatt trail to find them.


Today I spent two hours hunting and pulled 9 missions in a row on Kashyyyk. This cost me 9 droids and around4 minutes of wasted time per jedi. I have a proposal I'd like feedback on from the jedi community - removing all jedi on kashyyyk from the terminals.


The devs have allready stated that they want Kashyyyk to bea planet where jedi can quest without being hunted. Ican't see this changing in the future so I'd like to propose a compromise that is suitable for bothsides. Does anyone see anything wrong with this proposal?


I've also made a post in thejedi forum asking for their feedback on the issue:

Or they could remove experience on kashyyyk. Or they could fix droids there. Lot of things devs COULD do to fix kashyyyk, unfortunately they haven't given any word whatsoever on an intended course of action.

If your asking for bh input...Im all for your idea. Remove Kashyyyk jedi from the terms OR add a Kashyyyk term at the starport there along with a SPYOP.

Man, do what you will but in my opinion its a waste of time. Many never leave kashyyyk! Quite a few just afk grind there or log in and out of the area in a safe zone.

Mythrindir:


Personally I'd prefer that they fixed droids on Kashyyyk but I'm happy to work towards a compromise that is acceptable to both jedi and bounty hunters. Padawan need to grind, so it'll be a lot harder to gain support for either of your suggestions with the jedi community. As the devs are good businesspeople and know a jedi account stays active much longer than a non jedi account it is in their interests to satisfyjedi.


For change to succeed we must be prepared to compromise or negotiate.

Where does this data come from and is there a URL to read this information?

those aren't my suggestions...those are things devs could do to appease bounty hunters. i don't like the idea of droids working on kash if its truly meant to be a quest planet...personally i think setting xp on everything at kashyyyk to 1 or just total removal would be perfect.

JoBoFedderish:


Unfortunately I have no hard data to support my statement, but if you consider the past actions of the developers and the current string of television advertisements promoting jedi in galaxies you can draw your own conclusions.


Tonie:


How much time on average do you spend chasing a jedi on Kashyyyk? I hunt for the challenge of killing finished templates and I don't enjoy running through all 10 instances of the ryatt trail while hitting tab to find my mark. I don't play this game to spend 30-40 minutes of my life running around kashyyyk without a name or a seeker waypoint to guide me. The padawan that hide down there are no fun to hunt anyway - I like a challenge and would prefer to die in combat against a worthy opponent than spend 30 minutes running through the trails only to twoshot kill the padawan. I guess the difference between us is that we have different motivations for the hunt - I have no need for money anymore.


I'm interested in seeing how many bounty hunters bother persuing marks on kashyyyk - if you do, please speak up. If a solution negatively affects a large number of players than it can't really be considered suitable...

First off my record for hunting Jedi on kask is 34 kills and 1 loss


My record off kask is about 3 kills2 losses and8 jedi running for a house.


IN the last two days i have gone on a jedi killing spree and sent about 8 jedi to the cloner with a nice DB and a rose. Average time between pulling and mission finding out their on kask and the DB is about 25 minutes. In fact i found jedi hunting on kask to be easier.


Why are jedi easier on kask cause they are generally hanging out in the same area 95% of the time. and those jedi that are not in the trails at the feral wookie village are not getting as much visiblyities and thus are not on the terms as much. I have made major money on the trail jedi.


In fact i plan on getting atleast three jedi kills tonight. This doesnt count all the jedis that are afk and get sent to the cloner from the tank in their group going by by. When we got names of jedi on the boards i seen whole groups flee in terror when a BH should up to take Names and see who is in what trail.


If you cant hunt on kask then you need help. SAy you dont like hunting afk jedi guess what after enough trips to the cloner maybe they wont afk. I know a few jedi that used to afk till i nailed them 3 or 4 times in 2 days.


IF they remove bounty from kask then they should remove exp for jedi. BUT my solution to the afk group is simple buff up the wookies or and a mob boss that can spawn.


OR simple remove looping macros like the devs said they would

IM not to sure on the why behind the push towards jedi by SOE. Maybe they think they can pull in more new members by selling jedi as the big thing ingame? Wish they would stop but that is another thread.


As I stated earlier, either removal of XP on Kash or adding a tern there.

1st there only six version of the trail . and i can find my mark by only searching two or less. Second if the paddie know what he doing he can put up a better fight then a full temp IF he drops the right skill.


Guess you never fought a master Defender with 4xxx healer and master Rifleman
