ok well i have just got up and the odd thing is now that i was on the terms when i ended the day and now woke up and now i am off the terms. so at most i was on the terms for...almost 12 hours and searched and searched for me with my alt on the terms and still nothing. i mean personally i have always heard that rancors = terms no doubt but some one had told me today that they dont..only NPC and players. also any clarification on rancors giving visibility would be helpful also. but i killed maybe 100 or so rancor in my little outing and like i said no terms until my incident. i constantly browsed the terms for 20 minutes just now and i am off the terms already it seems. this is a little too odd would like more feedback of anyone else is brave enought ot test it out. just hunt with a friend heal him/her etc etc but stay away from NPC and kill some rancors or something and tell me how it goes. untill the moon clan incidents i had no problems no terms no nothing. i really dont need be worrying about bh at this point but the point is everyone is worried about the visibility issues and wouldnt like to see people go through more than what is needed already. so i got a little more to give in the testing ...just seems odd when i DID have to worry about it a little more the stupidest thing put me on the terms. like someone else has just said maybe they have fixed this and just dont want to stay???

I think i see pattern here. Have you ever wondered if you have seen terms that there is only so few jedis even noobs are running with sabers all over? IMHO i think there is limit how many jedis can be on terms at same time. So basicly visibility has to be high to get on terms even your over "limit" and you might get there delayed due someone "above" in terms has been killed.

just my 5cents



Want to change 3.2 mil jedi xp to 1 skill point? I dont.

for one a large number of bh's can have your bounty at one time and also i can check the terms for myself for my alt is a bh. but i went out again here for another 2 hours and it seems it was my fault this time (got a little to close to moutaiin clan and ignited my saber) and not long after then i got a tell saying i was on terms. but that was after an hour and i still wasnt on the terms which was odd. i still dont know if it was dumb luck or what but until i got myself into trouble i didnt seem to have any problems. also i thought rancors gave visibility but i dont think they do...and if they did i didnt loot any this morning that i killed either maybe that has something to do with it? dont loot = no visibility? dunno but took me forever to get on terms i was even leaving my saber equipped and force runnign thru the starports and still nothing lol. dunno maybe i got bugged for a little bit for some strange reason. i wish more people would test just heres what i have done this morning and ive had no problems until i caused it myself but ive been playing for 10 hours and no terms...
1) was grouped with a freind and fought side by side (definately within 32m and im talking right THERE close)
2) healed my friend (wounds etc etc)
3) was killing rancors (but not looting them)
4) running with saber in my hand
5) force running thru the starport
6) lasted 10 hours before i messed up and ignited my saber around the mountain clan that finally put me on
anyone else with more feedback or info please post. seems people are getting on the terms from either being really stupid about it or just plain trying to be to careful





All well and good but we all know that 1 NPC will not get you on the terms, especially for just "igniting" the saber. Chances are it just took a while for the viz to build up to get you on there.

We also dont know for sure how long it takes for a mission to appear after generating visibility.

I've had an entire squad of stormtroopers (at least a dozen) land right on me while Im killing things and even had them contraband scan me, and did not get on the terminals for that. (at least not that I could find after about 100 refreshes)

Also, as an experiment I have written down every Jedi name on the terminals and put a mark next to their name each time I see it. I have gone through 100 refreshes of the terminal before a specific Jedi shows up in some cases. I dont know if this means they just appeared or if the general randomness of the terminal made them not show up at first for me.
