Thread: BH's Main Purpose is just a waste

Looking, I've been hunting jedi lately. Most of them can kill me and we fight a good battle. But the ones that I'm owning, end up runing or cloaking at the end. So either way, I get no bounties. I feel this profession is just a complete waste. Only good thing is, I have some nice screenshots.

it becomes worth it. sounds like you've been unlucky woth your opponents. those that cloak and run are cowards..then again so are the BH's who high-tail it when they start losing. keep at it and eventually you'll have some good battles that will make you glad you became a man-hunter.

There is no way to say it and risk sounding degrading, sorry. You just need more pratice and better tactics. It's not easy, but there are is a lot of good advice on these fourms.


Master the use of KD and stats. Slow him down, keep him in place, and prevent him from using burst run. Use the burst run food and your own burst run to keop him within your reach and stay out of his. Keep him in combat and keep him healing.


If it's credits your after, stick to NPC's before they nerf the loot again.


Good luck,

Well I don't run ever in battle and no offence taken. I wont even attack a jedi afk, I like a good fight. PVP is fun win or lose. I take my losts, I just want jedi to do the same. At the same time, can't blame them for running, they don't want to lose that exp, we all know how fun it is to get exp in this game.

i think most jedi will run...


some just want to play their jedi for PvE and will allways run

some are simply not strong enough and still in the boring grid

some have better stuff to do then fight for 30 min....

some dont see the point in a can-lose-xp-and-dont-win-anything-fight

some just dont like to be content for BH when they dont have content for Jedi

some have simply not the saber for PvP cause they dont spend 30 hours in pearlhunt

some fear the use of exploids (area-intimate, group-mate-duel, ...) on both sides

some think that jedi are no longer 1.5 stronger and dont fight till it is fixed

some are just tired cause of 5 BH showing up since log in

some dont like the idear of forced PvP in only one direction

some simply want to log soon


and some few once love PvP.... you can find them when you go SF and then look on the radar. but somehow most BH dont like it when THEY can be attacked when they are only shoping or trying to do a NPC-mission.

Being hunted is part of the deal with jedi, so ifa jedishoping be ready to fight. At least relize you can have a fight at any moment.I piss one jedi off hardcore, I destroyed his bike first while he was looking at an vendor. After he cooled off, he didapologize cause he was trying to be an ass in tells but it's stickly bussiness for me. So no big deal. They can run and I can hunt them for a good while and slow there grinding down. Jedi don't have to be on the terminals, they can play it safe.

Sounds like you shouldnt be BH.... you should be Special Forces.... there you have PvP....


Jedi vs BH is not realy PvP to me. To allways be save but able to attack a mark when ever you feel like? doesnt sound like a good fight or PvP to me. its the poor version of real PvP.

all things pertain to information known openly to them before they began down the path of the jedi... so too bad for them.

There you see it: Hunt is part of the Jedi... not fight and not PvP. Hunted = running from a fight.

So you dont want PvP.... you want to be a a$$hole to the jedi.

When you wanta goodfight you have to hunt the finished or nearly finished. When you hunt the CL 65 that are in the grid you will find them running as sure as the a$$ has a hole.


You realy confuse me. Do you want a good fight or slow the grid?

To know that when you start the jedi is not to love it.


Jedican (still) decide to fight or to run. and i realy hope that the devs dont go on to force Jedi to fight.



So this no post where jedi whine cause the get hunted.... its a BH-Post that whines cause jedi can still decide to run or fight.

I dont care if Jedi run...

but for gods sake dont complain when you get on the terminals...you did it! no one else.

forcing Jedi to stand and fight would be a bad move..and will (Thankfully) never happen.

its rather hard to pick your targets now...I get alot of paddies now in the mix. the new system ensures that the paddies will get hunted more at least. which is good...since our job is to keep the progress as slow as possible.

you want to add player bounties? add folks who are tagged as "force sensitive" to the vis list *chuckle* that'd be funny... make them lose a truckload of banked FS XP on BH death..there is your jedi pacing...there is your population control, you know, if they had put it in a year ago...*sigh*

The Threadstarter did..... thats why we are writing here.

can you quote me on that? i only told why they run.... i think. but if you know better.....


forcing Jedi to stand and fight would be a bad move..and will (Thankfully) never happen.


OHHHHHHHH you are a dev..... you REALY know what they implement and what not...


its rather hard to pick your targets now...I get alot of paddies now in the mix. the new system ensures that the paddies will get hunted more at least. which is good...since our job is to keep the progress as slow as possible.


hm can you explain that? Why is it easyer to control the "progress" when you cant see who is paddy and who is full temp? And why the hell do you get NPC missions when you "job" is to control the jedi-population? you should realy talk to SOE about that NPC-Missions that stops you from doing your job.

you want to add player bounties? add folks who are tagged as "force sensitive" to the vis list *chuckle* that'd be funny... make them lose a truckload of banked FS XP on BH death..there is your jedi pacing...there is your population control, you know, if they had put it in a year ago...*sigh*


Player-Bounties? who the hell has talked about player-bounties? have i missed something or is that simply your normal BH-Whine taktic? "hm... cant say something usefull to the topic.... lets provoke some hate-tells about a total different matter."







Maybe you go to top and read that all again and then tell us what you think about the "running Targets", and ONLY about that?

Would make you look less like a Jedi-whiner.
