I have two accounts. One is a Jedi, the other an MBH. For all I know this may be by design, but this is not the case for the GCW TEF system.


I have noticed, and I don't know if this is a new issue with 10.3 or if it has been in game earlier, but once my Jedi logs out and goes LD, my MBH can still target and attack the Jedi. Obviously this raises the possibility of getting 'griefed' without you even knowing it as it sometimes takes a very long time for the avatar to disappear from the game after going LD.

I know of5 people who "unlocked" IE Padawan to be on the BH terms after next server reset.


To me this can only mean one thing Visibility has a Major bug in it somewhere.

Also after a BH Db'ed a jedi with his mission the jedi is not clearing from the Terms at all.

And the Same BH can retake and the jedi mission to non stop Hunt the so said jedi 1000 times if they so wish "not sure but to this paying customer this is greifing" so it must be a bug...

So im a newer Jedi (0040 sabers), i go way out of my way to not be seen but yet i get tracked by one BH over and over.

1)Bounty Hunter tracks me to Endor Db's me (-120k jedi xp)i get a rez not so bad i guess.

2)I go to Naboo trying to get to safe house on Lok, i happen to shuttle to the Starport hes at (not theed) he whacks me again, YAY another -50k yay, no rezzers, another -200k for cloner.

3) I finally get to LOK, guess whose there waiting for me, yup you got it ASS face killer, Load Kills me. Im so pissed i accidentally hit enter and clone another -200k or so.


I am at -600k jedi xp in about 2 hrs of ingame fun time

I ask myself, HOW DOES THIS BH KEEP KILLING ME? DOESNT THE MISSION RESET?


I work all day, then i wantto get home to play my toon, and for 2 hrs all that happens is i get killed over and over by the same Dood!


If this isnt GRIEFFING I DONT KNOW WHAT IS?

This new systems sux ass btw , did i mention that?


Why cant the BH just take his win and move on, why grief?

/end Rant


You think the new changes and bugs are fun for jedi's. Great now you have done what Holo always said he didn't want grief play!


How is this BH getting the same BH bounty over and over again if it get reset after each death?

Jedi/BH TEF after death. If I read the patch notes corrected this shouldn't happen:


Jedi got a DB'd,

I Rez'd,

BH was able to attack Jedi again.


It was reported with /bug. Is this supposed to happen still upon rez?







Has the BH in a group or solo? If in a group did he himself DB you or his group member? Group TEF is still an open issue and is quite tricky to fix it.





The BH was grouped with Overt (opposite faction). I bet the BH didn't DB but if an overt member DB'd him wouldn't I get a faction TEF for rezzing? Mabye its not a "bug" just a group TEF issue.

1. BHs can take a Jedi mission, drop it, and still get TEF on that jedi. They can essentially get TEF on every Jedi on the terms.


2. I'm sure you'veseen the Jedi forums and seen the incredible amount of posts with regards to the XP lose being way to much, even BHs are stating this.


3. Group TEF, is completely rediculous, a BHs group can attack the Jedi regardless of faction but the Jedi doesn't get the same benefit?


4. Visibility is not working, but I'm sure you already know that by now.


5. 3 weeks to clear visibility is beyond rediculous, people want to enjoy thier $15/month playing not leaving thier Jedi un-logged. In addition basically anything you do as a Jedi puts you on the terms. If a BH comes seeing you during the 3 week cycle, anything you do other then go prone and wait for the 600k+ DB, puts you right back on the terms for 3 more weeks. This has to be a bug, I mean, I honestly cannot believe reasonably intelligent people thought this system out.


Why not turn off the Terms until it actually works?

All of my weapons and armor since publish 10.3 are losing condition at a highly accellerated rate. My scythe went down 8 points in condition killing one Nightsister protector. Also, my compositechest piece lost 200 condition from that one protector.


I pretty much can't play the game right now due to this bug. I have submitted a /bug report and opened a ticket. The ticket was responded to within 15 minutes with a canned message saying that "we do not have logging in place to verify this error, so since we can't verify what you've claimed, we are now closing this ticket". I waited until after server reboot and the problem persists.


This was not an issue until publish 10.3 hit live.

Tiggs,

By this post you automatically state that your ingame bug reporting tool is not effective.
Improve the tool which would automatically put release value in it and the problem will be solved. You will get more flames here than really bug reports.





Please do not assume what I am saying here. I made this post to open the lines of communication and also so that I can provide feedback on some issues you may be experiencing. If you don't like it please then feel free not to post here.





Great to hear! I am frustrated but will try to make this helpful and clear. My main problems with the recent publish are the Village Phase 2 issues.


1. I left Dath to get some of the components, just like I needed to leave Dath for components in Phase 1. However, when I returned to Dath, I got the "Crafting Mission Failed" and the mission disappeared from my quest journal. The BLL has an accurate tally of the items I donated but I will not place any more until this is fixed.


2. My guildmate is stuck in Whip's quest for a ship that isn't there. AWhen she went to Endor and looked within a 1.5k radius (and is a ranger), there was only 1 ship and it belonged to another player. She looked for 2 hours and cannot progress any farther until this is addressed.



Ok, as per your post, you want to open lines of communication. I appreciate that a great deal. I and many folks have already posted these two, identical issues. Now it's your turn. Lines of communication mean one or more persons speak and then there is a response. If there isn't any response, then this is not communication. Even a statement like "We realize there are some bugs with Phase 2 and we are working on fixing them but can't give an eta yet" would go a loooooong way because what it says is "we are reading your posts, realize you're frustrated and trying like heck to get it fixed as quickly as we can".


Thanks and eagerly awaiting some word.

I was killed by a bh yesterday, and then when i cloned i thought well i should be off the terms now since that is what was stated, so i purposely walked out in the middle of theed starport and waited. Sure enough 5 minutes later another bh comes along and greases me within a second didn't even have time to get off of my bike. Clearly my visibility is not resetting, so fix it please.

I noticed the same thing, my Power Hamer lost about 800 in condition during three days of playing, I never had them decay this fast before.

Dont you dev's Read the "tips and tricks exploit swg sites"???


There is a known bug going around, i dont want to post it step by step here since i am a jedi and dont want to get killed since the visibility system is broken, AND the fact that this exploits exists. and that is That a BH when grouped can keep your mission after death over and over and over. Its REAL easy for the BH to do and since i am a Jedi and a master Bounty Hunter on 2 different accounts, I KNOW IT WORKS! and its RIDICULOUS! Visibility does not go down after killing the bounty hunters either!


OH YES! and weapons are DEFINETLY Decaying WAY faster after this new publish!!! I Hunt GDK's for scales all the time, My armor used to decay 800 condition per kill, LIKE CLOCKWORK! Every single time same amount of condiiton drop. Now i am Losing 1500 to 2000 EASILY on armor. WHAT THE HELL! lol


Seriously if you guys want to know this exploit and how it works please feel free to send me a private message and ill GLADLY demonstrate it ingame. I have worked my way out of 800k negativeexperience with only lightsaber 3000, this is not fun and the system is quite ridiculous


Right now Bounty hunters have NOTHING to fear upon death, absolutely nothing. Why not Make it so they lose Investigation XP upon death? i dont get it. I mean in the somewhat reality, there would have to be some sort of retribution for a bounty hunter not completing his mission and failing. Why not make it so they cant get another mission for 24 hours on a player jedi

Okay Tiggs, here's an issue. WHIPS QUEST, why is it that nobody is telling us the status... why are we being left in the dark? In the FAQ's, it states a reason why we pay. We pay the monthly fee to account for labor, server maintenance, and customer service. Every time I submit a bug, the csr tell me that I'm abusing the system, or they tell me that they don't have an answer for me. Whats up with that, why should we submit bugs if you 1) Don't fix them.... and 2) Don't give us feedback on the status of your efforts. Your time is almost up, only 2 more months..... I suggest you put forth a HUGE effort and fix the problems with the "state of the game". I won't be suprised when you don't answer this post.

Jedi is the only content I have left.... why has it taken me a year to acheive it, or should I say be able to acheive it, no matter, I'm bugged on whips quests so there will be no initiate for me... /salute devs, thanks a bunch... you really know the meaning of customer service.
