now if they would have only taken their own advice about a year and a half ago...

Ok well this is going to be short and to the point because the long detailed post I wrote on it didnt post correctly. So here it is in a nut shell

If a bh is the group leader than all other members ofthe group could help in the hunting of the mark just like normal grind missions, all get exp and all get cash for the kill just like normal missions. Group sizes are the standard 8 person groups we have now, and only the leader bh needs to have the mission just like we have now in grinding groups.

Why do I think this is a good idea?

Because when you engauge a mark (jedi) you still get the first strike on them, and your entire group can help you in killing them. However anyone THEY are grouped with would get a pop up just like the group invite pop up asking if they would like to aid their ally, yes/no. If yes then they are instantly also tefed, if no, well then nothing changes. you would have a system in place for a maximum number of players to be equal on both sides, for instance, bh hunts jedi solo, then the group still gets the message, but if they accept they will get a "the group is full" message. With the maximum number of players determined by the bh team.

What would this mean, it would mean you could potentialy have 16 person fights, it would mean that jedi are no longer forced to watch their friend die and do nothing, or that they dont have to sit and stop grinding while the bh and jedi fight it out, they can get involved if they choose to. Does this mean that in theory you can have 8 vs 1, yes sadly it does. But hey such are the gank squads. More than likely however as jedi are nearly constantly grinding or in pvp already it would simply allow more people to get involved if they choose to and add some realism that if you blast my buddy in the face I am likely to take offense and do something about it

As said, this is a rough idea as the original (much more detailed) post didnt make it though. It would mostly benifit the jedi as others could aid them, with the added notion that bh dont have to be a mainly solo prof anymore and encourage group play for those who want it.

What are some bh and jedi ideas on this, as I know jedi spend just as much time here as their own forums
