Thread: You want to get rid of Bounty Hunters? This will do it.
The game lost it's focus a long time ago. GCW is forgotten, but the biggest complaint I hear is boredom. Pitting us against eachother is SOE's way of clouding the issues.
Typical, don't address complaints blow smoke..
I like his idea. I think that anyone should gain a "viz" if they were caught by Stormies carrying countraband. As it is now, they never really do anything about it. but it would be neat if any combat lvl 70 and up could get viz if they carried countraband. As it is now, i only loot hunt, jedi are too boring to hunt, most post-cu jedi have to run, if they don't they die very fast. (unless, of course they have a running account with Ebay 
)

ok on the ent thing....
1) how to determine what generates visability to be fair ... to all ents afk and ATk....
2) how could they possible defend themselves....
3) you ssaid rewarding to both sides? you meen afk Vs ATK ents... or BH VS ents?
you have something brewing here you should also make a simular post on BH forum...
and to those that didn't realize what he said..... is he is tired of the hate between Jedi and BH... and tired of only hunting Jedi that he wants more options he can hunt other then us...and he was saying that he KNows were not all Leet doodz....
actually it was a compliment and some ppl flamed him anyway..... dam ...at least read his entire post before you pull out the plasma cannon..sheesh

Entertainer vs entertainer death matches.I like this idea. We get a buff from watching a female twi'lek rip the arm off a wookiee!
for another shor response to your title,
i dont want to get rid of bh s, i want less content for them, actually, I want to be their only content. i want to kill more of you. but i want something for killing you, frs or something.

you have some great IDeas...
Lets start debating what other proffessions woul;d be viable targets ... like why they have a bounty on there head ....you know how they get vis ... since its alot diff for non Jedi...you have to screw up and make someone really mad to want your head on a plate... then also look at fairness issue ...cause I meen... you don't want a hard core BH/CM going after a CL 1 ent or crafter either ...
Ok I see smuggler as very "movie Like" cause of the Han Solo Vs Bobba Fett stuff
and smugglers can mix with another combat mastery and be very wicked opponets with there specials this also arises to fact that a BH would have to be more tactical in how he fights a Smuggie combo compared to a Jedi combo
them being hunted (gaining vis) is easy to justfy with failure on a smuggler mission
I could also see Bounty Hunters being hunted for failure to complete missions PC or NPC
Im not sure about anyone else tho...the rest are either ents...crafters ...or soldiers in GCW and I can't explain why they'd be hunted
maybe something to do with using spice or sliced weapons and armor? not sure that fits tho ...not for a PC BH to come..maybe a NPC spawn but not a PC
Oh...and to add to the excitement of mystery of BH and make it a little more BH like by investigatig a bit....
Make it so the terms are generic ... Player Mission.... no faction... no Jedi /smuggler/ BH title.. so you won't know who you are after till you seeker droid there name or come up on them and then ... see the drama if its a FUll temp Jedi..padawana...smuggler... or fellow BH stalking his own mark
while all along you yourself may be being hunted as well if you have failed a mission
just some base Ideas maybe a few ppl can add to
I wouldn't say "more tactical".... but probably just as tactical. The problem with ranged vs ranged is, well, staying in range or getting out of it, just like with fighting jedi. Except that if a MBH / MPist goes against a MSmug / MPist, they might as well just stand toe to toe..... cause roots and snares don't mean crap.

Push for other player bounties. Player bounties beyond the upcoming smuggler changes. I will absolutely guarantee you that the amounts of Bounty Hunters you get will almost drop to 0. Personally, i can't wait to say goodbye to jedi.
So come on guys, push for more content for us. You already saw what happenned when they added the loot missions, i've personally seen 50% of the avid jedi hunters i've known drop Jedi hunting completely for the loot they could get. The jedi seems to certainly have a big population, so push for a system of player bounties outside of your own that can be rewarding for both sides, the hunter and the hunted, and say goodbye to that god awful harassment you so clearly don't deserve.

You're the first bounty hunter that said something that made sense. Lets party sometime. lol
But seriously, you do have a very good idea. Smugglers are supposedly *criminals* and the empire is obviously not good enough to take them out. So let the bounty hunters do it.
