If you are a jedi and grind afk, you are prob just asking for a quick trip to the terms and neg exp possibly, you wont see the BH coming if he does. If you are not a jedi and afk grind(although looked down upon) just need to watch when you cap.

not the best of ideas, get you on terms pretty fast, and killed by a BH pretty easily

lol yea was just being stupid, was on a planet hardly used in city just trying to get my 20k for first box.(longest buff sessions of my life) but checked it every few seconds, also i seem to find it easier to see people/NPC's apporaching with my overhead map ON, just a little tip, but probably not the first to think about it. also does anyone know (/pause 5minutes) yea i forgot what i was going to ask. anyway is there anything better to kill with novice LS, this has probably been asked many a times before but i have really no patience trying to navigate these forums, and specially when it come up (too many searches) ug. O i remember now! is there a "Range" to where one PC/NPC must be within for you to gain Vis? one jedi told me 32m or somethingm but is this been verrified? its really frustrating when i come up to my lair and few seconds after i begin attacking it a group of npc's spawn 50ish meters near or closer and then hurry trying to hide my saber, i try to keep a low profile but it seems really painfull to pay this much attention to my surrondings...but i suppose its a good habit to break right away. Anyway does anyone have some answers to questions above any thing is appreciated.

Wow......You do know that you will be looking over your shoulder for the rest of your SWG life with a jedi toon right? Doesn't sound like you are cut out for the life of a Jedi......lol! No flame intended, but being a jedi does have it's pains and they don't end when your template is complete.

Thanks to CU I can have a jedi for X-mas instead of 4th of July!

You are correct, Jedi are getting screwed. The CU is encouaging group play but Jedi cannot fight in groups. The result of theCUwill be weaker Jedi and a longer time sink to fill their template. Just another roadblock to control the Jedi population.


The visibility rules still apply. Before the CU was announced, Jedi on the forum were asking for a way to establish a Knight/Padwan system that allowed the two to group without generating visibility. Knight would get ranking points based on how much xp their padawans gained, and padawans gained some protection in case of Bounty Hunter attacks. It would alleviate the boredom of the solo grind and be true to the mythology. So far our pleas have fallen on deaf ears.

yea got spooked by a doc harvesting yesterday was about 100m when i noticed him on my Overhead map, then i hurried up and shut off saber. secretly thinking (damit already?) he came up to like 25m from me and /waved and was like wow found you! like he was a BH or sumthing, i hate pvp and tried it on the TC-3 lastnight and i think it sucks. a battle can last not even a minute where now u atleast have a chance to plan for attacks. and whats up with this 100% health crap? i like to know how many HP i have not this 25%health left stuff! yea if you dont know what does what when this updates your gonna get screwed by all the people who spend hours "pre-Learning" the new combat system. . . gives me a headache just thinking about it. just to leave ya with a thought, but if this update is to encourage "group" hunting, then isnt jedi characters going to be the main character getting screw'd over? or am i wrong that a group of jedi DOSN'T give vis on each other? any ideas?

what the heck is going on with the CU? all i am hearing is negitive feedback about this. ill be damned if i have played this for 2 years and gone through 2 accounts just to finally unlock 1 week befor the "CURB" and thus making the game go to the Curb litteraly and figurativly. (pardon the spelling) but from what i have noticed when just testing out different combinations of professions and weapons on tc3 last few days i go from seeing this incredibly stupid 100%health,100%action.100%mind...to 3500health,100%action,100%mind, i like the system thats inplace now! but what most people dont realize is yea pvp is way fun on tc because there is no real LOSS! you get anything you can possibly want from the bluefrogs with out working for it! and supposdly combat is supposed to be harder so we are encouraged to group hunt more. its going to take longer to master professions or get that right "template" and what not and when all is said and done and PVP comes to us live people will not want to loose good items/armor as seing it takes awhile to get credits now anyway! not to mention as more and more 12pt armor smiths/weapon smiths appear they tend to sell their crap for BIG $$$! just because you have a laser rifle witha pup on it to make it 100pts more mxdmg does NOT make it worth 5million credits! lets get real here im sure every econemy on every server sucks, because alot of people are so greedy to make money. I just know im going to be really pissed on wednesday come to find out my padwan sucks even more then it does now and especially when i cant get a group to help me out because of the damn visibility rules! dont get me wrong i dont think that every server needs to have billions of jedi, (if im in the woods and kill a janta. . . how is that same janta going to report me to local athorities??)

or why the hell would my guildmates report me to local bounty hunters? it does not really make any sense!it seems that long ago the devs really liked Rifle men, so they made them stronger and nerfed most other professions i.e. Combat Medic and i hear that they are hitting TK hard to. i can understand that people complained ALOT up till now and thats the major reason for this cu (pool specific attacks) to them i say BOO HOO! if you dont like PVP stay away like me.


IN SHORT "OLD CHINESE PROVERB" : IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT!

AND IF IT IS THERE IS ALWAYS DUCK TAPE!
