Ok, last night, or actually yesterday afternoon, seemed kind of barren as far as the jedi population went. I was seeming to have trouble finding any suitable jedi on the terms that were still online. Eventually I did find one who was on Dant. So I ship out there and find that he's about 1.5k outside of MO. I launch my probes, speed on out there, and as I arrive to the WP, I see the jedi's group speeding off. At first I thought, "DamnitI've been seen!" But as I followed more, I saw the mob that they hadhunted, and it looked like they had just finished a mission.
"Awesome!" I thought. I was able to target one of the straggling members and sent him a tell.
"Hey, you mind if I join your group?"
"/tell *******, they're the leader."
So I sent the leader (who wasn't my mark) a /tell, and he said, "Sure, we've got space."
I followed them to the mission, where I accepted an invite. The group sat for a minute or two talking about who was gonna pull the bols. All the while I'm just a footstep away from my mark. So after killing a few bols and watching the strategy that my mark was using, I devised a plan. I scooted slowly away from the group and waited for the next bol. Once my mark engaged with him, I rooted, body shot, head shot, crit. shot, head shot, etc. I didn't want to knock him down, because then he would definately catch on that it wasn't the bol doing the damage. I incapped him without him ever realizing it was me. And since he was so close to the bol with his saber, the group couldn't tell it was me that incapped him either. I ran up to apply the DB, but he got up, and then I incapped him one more time. Then came the DB, and it was over.
Another jedi in the group rezzed him up, and we all continued the fight. In fact, he didin't even know that I slayed him! I was able to hang with the group for another ten minutes before I decided to slide back out to Kaadara. After about another ten minutes I finally got a /tell.
"That was sneaky, dude." Said my mark.
"Any means nessesary." is all I replied.
"It'smy beliefthat it's cowardly to hide." He said.
"Beliefs go out the window when money is involved. Besides, I hid right in front of you."
I never got another tell. As for my mistake, I didn't leave the group before I DBed him, so they all got a chunk of the reward. Oh well, I was in it for the XP anyway. So regardless, it was an interesting hunt for me, because it was the first time I have ever applied tactics like that. So much fun!
