There is no reason that BH marks need to spawn at every possible WP on a given map. Put 100 *VALID*WP'sscattered around the map for each planet, randomly assign the mark to one of those of 100, and call it good. That's perfectly within the "limits of the technology".
or they could implement water combat(ie while mounted, non-energy weapons, etc)

Tracking a Bounty across water
Today's tip is for all of you Bounty Hunter's out there and it comes from Katalisha.
When tracking NPC Bounties, sometimes the waypoint spawns in the water
HERE IS HOW TO AVOID MARKS SPAWNING IN WATER:
- When you arrive at the planet where your mark is hiding out, look at your planetary map (CTRL-V).
- If the mark's waypoint is over water - go make a cup of coffee (after you send out your seeker droid).
- Come back after you've made your coffee to find the waypoint has moved several hundred meters
- Go kill your mark.
- Loot your mark.
- Drink the coffee.

(kind of funny nobody complained much about the NPC mark spawns post-cu, until they started being the sources of loot)

Player cities don't get any revenue from tickets for their shuttle bought from a starport (via round trip). So always buy your tickets from the city's local shuttle terminal to support the player city.

If you consider yourself a true bounty hunter youmustcomplete every contract
/whispers pssst, its a game!
/whipsers pssst, it's a Role Playing Game!
Be patient.
Thank you for your time.
you want a real tip? get all BH together scream on the forums for a fix...what about that?
Really lame this time TH, either give us real tips or leave it be.
Tip: as BH use your first-strike ability by aiming or using snipershot if you have it. A good attack can do up to 2300 damage, so don't waste it by charging your bounty. Don't forget startleshot so the bounty can't do anything, not even heal...works best with Jedi.
