What the heck you complaining about. Atleast you can group without getting visability. I had to solo on dantoonie ( not out of mining out post), with shuttles, Imperial Probots, and Kunga dropping in like flies on Bantha Puddu. You just make due. I was attacked for the first time by a BH only after I was full temp....


dang the first Xp with that crappy saber without an attack was very difficult and boringly long.


Suck it up dude.


Another thing be smart,the way the system works now,the less players on the servers (see early morning) the easier it is for a BH to get your mission when your on.

Yes, I remember that all too well. The real test was getting that 1rst tier 4 box in LS. For some reason, I consider that harder than completing my template lol.

Exploit: BH hanging around you while you grind, then their friend finds you on terminals and the 'sqaud' hits you for 6.

Hmmm.... Maybe the devs should really look into this whole visibility system?
Also:
1. Lambda's dropping on your lair while grinding - instant vis.
2. Kunga spawns dropping as you attack lair - SOEmake sure you getVisibility? Happened 6 times in 2 hours to me so no co-incidence.
SOE - Your mechanics force visibility, hence you force all Jedi to get visibility however careful they are. You can't stop fly-by's!!!!!! So time to rethink this whole hash-of-a-system you created and as I already posted and has been made clear to you, your own CSR's think the Jedi being forced into PvP against their wishes is harrasment.
Flame away all those with +700 sabres, I expect that from you.





Okay first, I don't have a 700+ saber, alas mine is a lowly 617. Second, It is called Bounty HUNTER. He is not griefing provided he's not vis camping you (staying closer than 32m). Third NPCs spawns are random. Forth, You posted what, 4?? 5?? Carebear PvE Jedi threads now? Did you not understand what Jedi was when you were throwin' your 'nades during the village grind? Fifth and finally, since you are so unhappy being Jedi, I propse this: Play your alt. My friend, you are the same kind of person who, when they don't like a TV show, tries to get it canceled vs. doing the obvious, changing the channel. Stop trying to change a profession that affects thousands simply because YOU don't like it. Just change the channel.

This is the common theme I find of people who get Jedi even before CU. There are the ones who seem to not realize that the Jedi End Game is PVP. That they are geared for high end PVE but PVP is where they are meant to go. If people don't understand this and settle for it early on they will hate it later. When you decide "Now what" after you are done grinding and look towards the FRS which makes you SF always. No option for on leave even if killed. As soon as you clone you die yet again. It's the life of a Jedi Knight. So live with the fact that Bounty Hunters will hunt you now and be happy that it's a game system that actually makes it to your advantage against them. There are templates made to fight BH's and some that are not. Most important thing to undrestand is it's not the Dev's fault you pick a Jedi template that is not geared for 1 on 1 combat. They made a system to compliment many different skills depending how you make the template. If you don't set it up to fight BH's then don't get Vis. But they will hunt you and try their best to get you so live with it. Make your protests but don't whine every time you die. The devs are not baby sitters.

the only way to get things changed in this game is to complain about them, so the original poster is doing exactly what he should be doing to change things he doesn't like. if you think those things don't need to be changed then don't complain about them, but flaming him isn't going to do anything.

ok flame on


We had the same as you if not worse and we all made it You just have to pick an area without janta etc. As for lamda landing on your head I had this once, not a big deal.


IF you are just grabbing missions from the MO then tbh you deserve it.








I won't flame since I have made it but I still can feel the pain of Jedi for getting unwanted vis. The system is poorly thought out and open to exploiting.


As for the Lambda shuttles, when you are grinding keep an eye out for the telltale white NPC type icon that shows up approximately 15 seconds before the shuttle lands. If you see this in time, it's not very difficult to avoid the vis, though you may have to give up on the lair (very annoying when XP is so hard to come by without mission lairs). I had this happen literally HUNDREDS of times on Endor (where I ground all but the last one million XP of my template). It would seem like one would land on average every 10 minutes and always within 30m of my position. Cooincidence.....?


I didn't gain significant vis (at least I was never hunted) until I tried the Syrens III house, so watching for the landing marker should keep you safe.

the lambda thing, - you get a probot drop in out of vis range to start with, and u get a message on screen, the probot flies towards you for a scan, THEN the lambda comes in and lands on top of the probot..if u say this lambda just dumped on top of you, it really means u didnt notice the probot in the first place and are not aware of your surroundings... you should pay more attention to whats going on around u







There IS no probot unless this has been recently changed. There IS an onscreen marker that shows up if the overlay map is up, but I've NEVER had a probot OR a system message about a Lambda landing.
