Ok before you jump at me and just flame this please consider what i am saying.


I am a jedi of PreCU by 2 months. so i am aware of staying hidden and grinding solo and ANY death cost me XP.


Since the CU has hit they first made it imposible to grind due to visibility. Then they have now fixed this by allowing us to group grind with NO visibility. This Rocked. i wipped the 3 months of dust off my jedi (i shelfed him) and came back. but with this i find that now i can group grind and die with no XP loss... all i have to worry about is BH's when Losing XP.... hmmm... Too Easy...No Fear... i feel the newer jedi are mising out on the fear we had PreCU.


I think they should bring back XP loss to jedi when the death is due to a NPC. lets face it right now all of us can be completly careless and die all day long and not worryabout it... if they re-implemented this. i bet you would see so many group grinds that get careless. right now i join a group we all charge the nest.. opps it was 3 nests stacked to close... we all die... clone... come back and do it again. there is NO NEED now to have a doc come running to Rez you...


I think they need to bring this back.. But leave visibility alone. its good the way it is unless they let us start soloing again... but thats another story..


i posted this because i am getting sick of seeing the same topics constantly rehassed. tell me what you think on this one! and please state if your a pre or post CU jedi.

When they fix the broke stuff (speed, pearls, states, regen) then sure....bring this back.


But until they have the profession fully capable, it is not fair to padawans who are grinding with screwed up weapons and skills.

Why? What's the point in making it irritating to play my character? (other than making me wanna play something/do something else?)

Why... because all the jedii see can and are...Careless now... run at critter die... oh well... i have no armor so nothing took any damage... charge at monster again... die... oh well... <--repeat....


Jedi arnt supposed to be careless. I agree with waiting till pearls are fixed. but i also feel a padawan should be pared with a group of people hunting. the group should heal the padawan... hence... he is a padawan learner. Knights should be teaching and protecting them from trouble.

Keep dreaming buddy, maybe one day SOE will listen to us and implement some sort of Knight/Paddy relationship, until then giving us more grief to deal with when we play is not the answer.

i agree, it is extremly easier for new blood. I was still working on my second template when a friend unlocked an finished his template in a week lol. ofcourse i was happy for him, but wow, it is so much easier on the new guys. Now i would hate for them to bring back XP loss for npc death, but i definatly feel your pain bro

hmm i am missing something here. why do we need the Dev's to make some Knight Paddy relationship? last i knew when i was in a goup i watched the groups health and healed everyone I could hile fighting. So in my ming this knight paddy relationship is in our hands. all you have to do is group with one and keep him alive... target him and heal him when he is low. draw agro from him before he dies... this is all in the game. the dev's cant make us protect the weak. if we just..Do this... then the younger jedi wont be as greifed with XP loss on death as we were pre-cu. unless you have a 13 year old running a jedi toon that thinks he is god... and charges a nest... I say... let him.. watch him.. and say Hmmm now did we learn something? if not.. well there is one jedi we dont have to worry about making knight.

OMG! Until you've spent half the time I did grinding (5.5 months and in fear of everything) then you really haven't "worked." Getting Full temp in 1 month of "casual grinding" is not work.

Playing a game is not "work".

1 month? You guys are stuck in the past (around the time of the respec) It's been over a month, and Im nowhere near half template. You've lost touch with the reality of the game.
