I agree. I'm glad that there are others who feel the same way as I do.

Strive to seeying everything




I am working on that but it realy needs a lot of time. Have not even seen half of the pois yet. Thats because my other quest is "decorating my house" which means collecting different things that are useless but rare - for example just to get a set of Bounty Hunter Armor takes more time then to complete most other games

Sure is .. come to Naritus .. check out http://www.swghuntersguild.com/


Beat Yyrkoons track record ... he needs not be ashamed even of BHs like Boba Fett ... and these people DO NOT have UBER templates .. the successful hunters just know their job well and have the right equipment and informants.


And to the general topic : AMEN to all the first poster said. Enjoy the GAME ! Interact. Fill it with life !


Have fun

I have a great track record. I could tell you quite a few stories actually. I could tell you a story about killing a Jedi and his whole squad of body guards solo. Or when I surgically removed one Jedi in 40 secondswhile he was grouped with 7 guildies in Theed and they never got a shot on me. Every single Jedi, not one tracked with a Seeker too. Just intel and getting the drop on my marks.


But BH and fear aren't words that crop up all to often in this game.


You know this as do I.


There is plenty of people on my server who think very highly of my skill in PvP. My skill being I buff to the hilt, I eat and drink to the hilt, I attack when it favors me never before, and I have some of the sickest weapons and equipment you'll ever see, a couple of which is rare past rare...


Even then though, there is quite a few templates which can quite easliy circumvent my bag of tricks. There is no fear as there is nothing I can do which causes them fear. This is no confession of lack of skill. I'm only as good as the game lets me be, and when I have maxed out all my variables and I have honed my art and I have set every variable possible in my favor then I know...I know it shouldn't even be a contest. But that ain't the reality. The reality is unbalance. A 50/50 shot against someone who whose equally buffed and prepared, with 249 SP in combat is balanced. This ain't balance.


It's not a question of tactics. I know every special, I know every ideal range of my weapons, I have a satchel filled with 20 different types of spice and food, I know how to use LOS and terrain. I know the strengths and weakness of every profession in the game. I have employed every possible tactic to various degrees of success. However, again, I'm only as good as the game lets me be.


Thus as much as I would like to take the original poster's advice and RP my role I really can't. I can continue to my best however, but he should be aware that his advice is not exactly do-able to all people who play this game. For example, a Smuggler who wants to create his own destiny and smuggle. The mechanics are not in place for this to happen. A BH who wants to hunt marks can't, unless it's Jedi and even then it's not from the terminals...they are broke. So it's stalking. Any covert factioned player can stalk a Jedi with a TEF...
