Thread: Bounty Hunter changes...
I didn't really care that much for the increase in xp. The payout is nice though 
I would of rather had them get a better handle on the TEF problem. I have had many days I would have 6 out of 9 missions not work. Get's kinda frustrating after a while. I am sure most people are running into the same problems.
But oh well I will just take my time I guess.

Wow thanks for that post and showing what is really happening here withthe def mods. Seems that everyone is well protected at master, from us perhaps?
Well Our skills are awesome but us carreer BH's will either need one heck of a increase of skill attachment loot to be able to survive THEM, or we need some profession defenses. I reccomend the latter.
Once again excellent post.
Don't be too smug about the carbineer mods. Counterattack is only slightly less than completely useless. Defense vs. intimidate is mostly useless, defense against knockdown has never worked for me whatsoever.
In all, that puts carbineer at 2 points less melee defense and 3 points more ranged defense when you throw out the useless mods.

WOW! I am TKM and i know BH are by far not the weakest prof. Any MBH who knows how to PvP can own just about any otherprof. If your competent enough to use what you got than MBH is an awesome profession SO SHUT UP!. look at DE its completely useless because it got nerfed beyond all point. they have nothin and they sure as hell arent whinin like you guys. I always wondered why everytime i kill a BH they grief me, now i know. You guys are a disgrace
Wow, wide sweeping generalization! Thanks for your creative input. Tell me, these "Bounty Hunters" that can "just about own any other profession" - were they master bounty hunters, or master pistoleers with BH Pistol 4 using the title "Expert Bounty Hunter" ? Anyway - thanks for the trolling. I got dropped on the ground and killed in two hits by a TKM in my PA a few days ago (and no, I'm not bitter/angry/upset about it either). Do you see me screaming about having TKA's nerfed? Do you see me posting idiotic nonsense about a profession that I don't play (the way you have here)?
No.
Go troll somewhere else.
I'm not asking for anyone to be nerfed. I'm not asking for anything that can be construed as an "I win" button. I'm not asking for other classes (like Droid Engineers) to be not be fixed.This thread is, however, very cleverly titled: Bounty Huner Changes - why the hell would I post anything like that in a thread about Bounty Hunters?
Anyway, thanks for the useless trolling.
Foth... let me see if I understand what you're saying...
Just because you don't have "problems" in a part of the game that you don't play... then the rest of us just need to deal with things as they are now and not look for any kind of improvement in the profession.
Thanks for your input.
Ok, player bounties are a touchy subject and for the most part I agree with the dev's about the griefing problems with them. But, the idea I've often proposed wouldn't create griefing and I don't think it would be too hard to implement.
First of all, I think the Bounty missions would have to be for the most part bug free. Yes, I know nobody knows when this will happen. But, I can wait. After this is accomplished then the following plan could work.
I feel that both the BH and Smuggler professions need some added excitement. So, the smugglers should be given a PVP mission option at a "Smuggler Mission Terminal". For added immersion this should not really be a terminal, but a NPC such as in Jabba's palace or Valarian building or something. The Smuggler should be forwarned that if this mission is failed or aborted a bounty will be placed on their head. This bounty can be collected by any BH who uses/talks to the same terminal/NPC. This player bounty situation would be totally voluntary. So there would be no reason for griefing.
The BH who takes on this bounty mission should have a limited time to accomplish it. That way the Smuggler would be able to evade the BH for a period of time and save their neck. The smuggler should also be notified that a bounty mission has been accepted by a BH and who the BH is. Maybe even allow the Smuggler to have friends help him out. But I don't think it would be good for the BH to have assistance. I think the more difficult it is for the BH the more fun it would be.

My point is this, you are not qualified to speak to me regarding our profession. You have alot to learn about your character and how to manage him. You have to work to be a good PVP player or whatever style of game play one may prefer. Once you level and learn how to manage ur character effectively your issues regarding defense may or may not change. Butyou will be qualified to speak on the subject with knowledge and understanding. Asking for improvements to a profession fro which you are not qualified halfway thru just makes you look foolish.
Foth!
LOL You're an absolute idiot. Since you've decided to "talk down" to me - I'll respond in kind.
I always love the "you're not qualified to talk about blah blah" crap. You're obviously not qualified to use a message board forum (nice triple post, you dolt).
Thanks for your "advice" and thanks for completely missing the point. I'll pass on your advice, as I know how to play the goddamn game you stupid f***tard. The fact that I do (know how to play the game that is, idiot) qualifies me to speak on the topic. It isn't like this is thermodynamics or vector calculus. Of course, to a 13 year old whose sole sense of self worth comes from a video game, I can see how you might not be able to understand that.
I haven't taken your words out of context.There's no need to take anything you've said out of context - your posts emphasize your stupidity well enough on their own and don't need any help from me.
Go back to GBS...oh wai...
In summary, you're a moron. Have a nice day.

"waite" ? Jeebus, let me guess - either english is your second language or you're some kind of bloody pom.
Or are you just stupid?
Regardless - you're still an idiot.
Thanks for playing!
