I am very sorry, but this whole issue with jedi/BH is still badly out of balance. I wonder why the DEV team gous for it while JTL is in Beta and needs lots of resources?

you shouldnt have pushed this out before bugs, as p.e. the jedi robes will glue to the character even after unequiping them, or the factional TEF issue.

I still wonder why there is no proper punishment for the BH after he fails his action. This whole thing is being cared out again on the back of Jedi, even after P9 and P10, when SOE used up so many resourcec in order to code them.

In my opinion this whole player bounty issue should be frozen/closed and be reworked PROPERLY, even in an own publish.

I don't mean for this post to sound rude, Tiggs; I know you're trying to help us, and for that I thank you.


Please convey to the developers that the information in their knowledge base article is NOT correct as of right now. My Jedi has been on the terminals three or four times (confirmed -- possibly more than that, but I KNOW of three of four of them for certain) and I had not killed ANY NPCs or had ANY NPCs or players within 32 meters of me while I used force powers/lightsaber skills during my play-time on those days. I spent 3.5 hours, each day, killing wildlife on Endor or killing the NPC marauders WITH MY FENCER WEAPONS, but never with my lightsaber.


That got me on the terminals.


Something is broken. IF the visibility system worked in the manner that you and JustG have outlined, I could stomach the hugely increased XP debts from BH deathblows -- because getting on the terminals would be my fault. That is NOT currently the case. Things are not what they appear.


Please get a good debugger on this. Then fix smugglers; they've been waiting far too long and they've been fed even more BS than Jedi players have.

Not Sure if this has been mentioned... (Not going through 13 pages) but...


Ever since the 10.3 patch my Jedi status is broken...


Ever since my jedi came back from the Corvette on Tuesday night my jedi status keeps saying that he i a declared IMP.. I went to a recrutier and went covert again... Now each time I log on it says I am declared again. If I log on and off several times I go covert.... again...


But as regular as clock work everytime I log on after an hr or so..... DECLARED.... ok I know I am a jedi but I have not finished the trials yet so I should not be Perma declare for now.


Also while this is happening my force bar indicator in the HAM/Status screen now shows that I have no force power.... The bar is there but there is no numeric symbols...


Now I can still use the force and it recharges but there are no numbers...


I have been to the corvette several times over the last week and up until Tuesday I have had no problems.... the only thing that is different is that a new patch came through.


I have posted this as a BUG as well, but I thought I put it here too.

I know the path of the Jedi is supposed to be tough but shouldn't we be rewarded for defeating our enemies? Shouldn't there be a way to get off the terminals besides hiding for 3 weeks? It makes sense to me that if a BH comes for me and I defeat him that I should be off the terminals.


We (Jedi's) seem to be mostly risk with little reward...

Tiggs,


So as I understand this, even if I am grouped with my guild mates who are all the same faction as me it makes NO difference. The members in my group will still be ratting me out to the Bounty Hunters? So when hunting with my guildmates (who I am grouped with) I am still generatingvisibility everytime I fireup my saber and perform a jedi skill. Thats 25% for each and every member of my group, each and every time I use a force special!


This would also be the same if I were groped with other, same faction, jedi. We would still be ratting each other out to the BHs? This just doesn't seem right to me.

    • Finally. But I have the same question as a poster before. Does this give us more room in the house or will it simply be like an unequipped backpack in your inventory, allowing us to put stuff in but with no decrease in the house's max inventory?



    It works like an unequipped backpack.

    How does Jedi visibility work in regard to Bounty Hunter terminals?


    Each of the following Jedi-relation actions has an associated Jedi Visibility Modifier:


    -Equipping a Lightsaber.


    -Initiating Combat with a Lightsaber equipped.


    -Using any Jedi-related skills that consume Force power.


    All PCs and all non-animal NPCs that observe a Jedi performing any of the above stated actions (observed as defined as within 32 meters) will contribute to an increase in the Jedi's Visibility Value (JVV).


    -An opposing faction member who views this action will add the full value of the action to the Jedi Visibility Value.


    -A Neutral PC or non-animal NPC will increase the JVV by 50 percent of the action's Jedi Visibility Modifier.


    -A same-faction PC or non-animal NPC will increase the JVV by 25 percent of the action's Jedi Visibility Modifier.


    Being grouped with a PC or non-animal NPC who is viewing this action has no influence on how Jedi Visibility is obtained.





    sorry but this doesnt clear it up all the way.. does equiping the saber alone increase it or just having it equiped infront of others.. if alone then why

    Is there going to be a fix for people grouped with a BH deathblowing the Jedi so the mission doesn't complete and the BH Gank Squad can kill the same Jedi over and over and over?
