Thread: A BH asking Jedi if this is an exploit
Not an exploit, yet, but it should be. Any jedi that does this won't be around long. The FRS will come back and people like this will soon not be able to handle it and quit.
Sorry that you had to experience this, it makes us all look bad.

I don't know that I would call it an exploit because I don't think there is anything broken there. I think its a pretty cheezy way to get out of a fight you are losing. I support a Jedi's right to fight when they want and run whey they don't want to fight but if you are going to stay and fight don't take cheezy ways out when it turns against you.
Thats just my opinion though.
Jacella,
I appreciate the response and no it doesn't nake jedi look bad in my opinion. Most jedi I have hunted are very understanding of my role as BH and most are very complimentary when a good fight occurs whether they or I win or lose. Mostly I lose though..hehe.
really, the Jedi should have been regening some force or holoing 
He could have plopped a house with all his furnishings in it and just relaxed while drinking his martini! LMAO!

That's probably why, I get hate tells like you wouldn't believe.
I've only had one person try this tactic on me, but I ended up getting the DB. Of course I thanked his friends for all the help.

I attacked and missed his speeder which got me a tell from jedi stating "Lol, you noob". Asked him to check /getvet to see who noob is, well anyways, on to what I really want to know. I started to gain the upper hand and had him almost dead when all of a sudden the jedi has a friend walk up next to him. Next thing I know I see the jedi is a corpse. I didnt do the DB.I told the jedi he used an exploit to get away from me, he responds " this isnt an exploit having a friend db and it wasnt a fair fight anyways because I had no force". Force or no force thats not my problem but having a friend db to avoid a BH db, is this an exploit? or as intended? is this reportable? just curious. Ask many jedi, I am an honourable BH that plays fairly and so I expect the same.
Play your character how you choose,its my 15 bucks a month so I will play as I see fit. The minute the devs or tiggs post that its an exploit I will stop but until then your opinion is well.....your opinion. Also the reason I called you a noob is because your sorry attempt at stalking was pathetic. It was easy to tell you were a BH the way you loaded into Sumgglers Luck and headed straight for my direction immediatly. If I were you I would have gone straight to the mission terminals to make it look like you had a reason to be there. But what do I know? I was only one of the most senior BH's on the server until I became a Jedi a few months back. Just the fact that your whining about this says alot about you. There is a way to collect on me but it just seems like your too lazy to collect. You dont deserve my bounty noob. I have mastered the art of thinking outside the box, If you want to collect on me you will have to do so as well. Or get another Jedi's mission. I have nothihng to prove to you I could care less about being honorable. My only goal is to become finished template, Not fight with you. Your adjenda is not mine.
Oh and another thing. /getvet only proves how long you have been opening your wallet to SOE. Noobness is determined by your skill lvl.

How can anyone characterize it as strategy or fair play? These are the two ways I view it:
Role Playing:
"I don't want him to kill me...you deathblow me...put me out of my misery before he does..."
The Friend deathblows you, but the BH gets the money and you lose your force XP.
Since the game mechanics don't work that way, I present case #2:
Exploit:
"I don't want him to kill me...you deathblow me...that way I won't lose any experience since he is clearly going to kill me soon..."
The Friend deathblows, ruining the BH mission and saving you three hours of grinding.
Everyone calls it an exploit in-game. When I had a BH after me the other day, all my friends started offering to dual with me as a way of helping. They almost got me killed trying to help me...but finally stopped trying when I told them it was between me and the BH.

exploit=taking advantage of a BUG
thats not abug, its cowardly though
