when you get killed by a bh, everyone that have your mission get a mission incomplete message and the mission deletes itself, been there done that
its most likely you got the visibility again and went back to terms in no time
Did you even read the responces? The guy above got killed and then killed again 10 min later without doing anything. This is retarded, there should be a grace period of no Vis gained after a BH death =(
you can be termed twice if you max vis. Ive seen 2 missions for the same Jedi on the same page of the terminal- different mission descriptions. That means if you are really unlucky you can have 10 bh attack you at the same time (in theory)

I was on the terms the other day and was in turn hunted down by several BH's, no big deal. I fight them and end up getting DB'd and losing 270k xp...again, no big deal, had a good time doing it. So, I head back into our guilds town and am talking with several guild mates near our shuttleport, about ten minutes pass when I notice a blue dot on the radar. I don't think anything of it and continue to talk, even go afk for a quick sec. When I return to my keyboard I am getting killed by the blue dot, a BH, and then DB'd...Losing 250k xp. Now I am not upset with the BH, he didn't know I had just gotten killed, so I submit a ticket. Here is the response I just received:
"If more than one BH takes your mission, your mission is technically ended when one of them kills you. However, the other BH's that take the mission can still kill you within the normal 10 day period of taking your mission. They will receive a minimal reward, and you will receive a minimal xp loss. This is by design, so I am afraid we will be unable to assist you with your loss in this case. We wish you the best of luck and a great evening."
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Since when is 250k xp a minimal xp loss.
Again, I didn't mind when I died to the first BH, was fun and a good fight, but to die 10 min later to another is just crazy. I lost 520k xp within a 10 min period. So, beware when you get DB'd by a BH that the fun may not be over yet.
What a bunch of Bull.
Try the old days man, about 600k or so total...
be glad the cloning is off, pve is off , and only 5 - 6 Bhs can take your misson...lol
Hell my server alone added 1mill XP guess what the CSR said, SORRY Online gameplay may change.

the difference is though, in the old days 600k xp was a lot easier to get then it is today.

Tanks was on the forums yesterday (?)asking this very question.
Basically, the missions aren't working as they previously did. What is supposed to happen is that, once you die your Vis is erased and you drop off the terms. If you, then generate sufficient vis to get back on the terms within three days you mission should be for 25k regardless of your actual skills.
I also believe that your XP loss is locked at 50k (2x 25? More for Knights, twice as much I heard). There is still a lot of debate on this and a good number of people are saying that the XP debt has always been 2x SP it's only the bounty which is effected by dying (honestly I don't know). I believe that "originally" this was put in place to soften the blow of getting on the terms, but more so to prevent milking of the BH system by a BHer /Finished Jedi (once you get to the limit of negative XP does it really matter?).
Tanks observed that the missions were not re-calculating correctly and was soliciting feedback from the community.
Just do a search on Tank's posts for the last few days.
FYI: In this he is HELPING the Jedi community, let's try to not be adversarial.

Sounds to me as if the CSR's are getting more and more clueless. maybe instead of fixing things the Devs should teach the CSR's the game. or Hell hire competent ones. If they are talking about that 25k mission thing. Then they need to know. IT isnt working. Dont respond with a canned response casue your knowlege of the game is that of a trained monkey.
put in another ticket refering to that one.
I would agree with you on the clueless part, but what they are consistent with is giving an answer straight out of a manual. You an usually tell very quickly when they have the wrong answer, but this one doesn't seem to answer any other question. I would say this is a legitimate answer, or at least it was at some point in time.

There is currently a bug with respec where when you respec your character, your new price goes on the terms and your old price doesn't get removed for around 24 hours.
This means 2 BH can take 2 seperate missions that will not fail when the other one is completed. (Theoretically it means 10BH are possible).
Respec twice in 24 hours, you can have 15BH etc...
Be careful

So if a bh wants to grief me he first kills me in the field and then his friends are waiting at the nearest clone center waiting for me to clone there to kill me again? probaly starting while still getting up. Good thing we can clone at shrines.

Hehe I guess they did change the vis issue. Now you can get vis from just being jedi, you don't have to do anything.
