Oh ic - its the fact that ur an unbuffed dancer killing a "great" jedi. That what makes it all the more sweet huh?

Let me tell u Ive been killed by a spitting rawl on naboo tending to harvestors with my jedi. I spammed heal and since the macro includes clear combat queue, it got incapped and deathblowed. Didnt manage to get a rez in time either.

Anyone who has a jedi knows just how easy it its to die and therefore how much skill is involved in staying alive. So getting killed by a dancer - not impressed TKM is very much more than needed to kill a jedi who is afk recieving a mind buff. Its more than enough to kill a jedi in 2 seconds even at the keyboard.

Nice post... Amen to that.

However a word of advice from a fellow hunter to another... its best to keep your nose out of the Jedi forums, plagued with trolls they are. Hell, I have even been flamed when offering advice and strategies to get away and keep clear of bounty hunting. Its truly amazing the frustration that gets vented here.

As far as you jedi that dont see any honor in bounty hunting are concerned, let me ask you this, what do you find more honorable:

A) Getting ganked by 5 BH, who then spit on your corpse and laugh

or

B) Nearly falling out of your chair in suprise as you suddenly find yourself incapped, only to see a looming BH over your corpse (one that caught you completely off your guard), saluting you, and doing a bit of RP to at least make things more interesting than a simple /spit emote if nothing else.

or

C) You come to find that the same BH from B) above has brought a doctor with him to rez you to mitigate some of your experience loss, then gives you some pointers on how to avoid this fate in the future?

NO honor in bounty hunting.... I find that statement laughable. Just a warning to you jedi that dont show respect for your predators.... remember, that respect is a two way street. Bounty hunters can make your life easy, easier, hard, or just plain hell.

As I always say, don't complain about being griefed, because you agreed to be "griefed" when you became a jedi. and

THAT is basic truth.

Good post, but...

When have bounty hunters ever been considered honorable? Killing for money is not an honorable profession.

This article was written by a BH I know, and who wishes to remain annonymous:

I am a Bounty Hunter

Not a ganking griefer that only gains pleasure in ruining another persons day, but a member of an honorable profession whos goals are to provide balance to the Universe while making a little profit in the process.

I hear the flame-post starting already, but please read this whole post before formulating your responses.

I do not hate the jedi. Quite the contrary, I have the utmost respect for them. They are my prey, and my adversaries. I hunt them without prejudice, without emotion, and most certainly, without malice. I do know what they go thru, and how hard the grind is. I am another of those obsticles. I am part of your learning curve.

I hunt alone, or with 1 other. I am a MHB/M Pistols, a purist as it were. Even with the odds stacked against me, I find a way to win. I always find a way.

I am the ultimate in deviousness, the culmination of years of practice, planning and plotting. I am not the Bh that suddenly appears on your radar guns a blazing, but the one that you look up at with astonishment. I will follow my mark for days. I will wait and wait. You won't know who I am. I don't choose a a low level padawan because there is no challenge in it, and if it was just credits I needed, I can make them faster just doing Quenker missions, or Janta or Mokk. I don't extort or offer buyouts. I may be that Doctor that you want the buff from, that Artisan that has a new crystal or pearl, or even your guildmate. You never know, and that is the tool of my trade. Fear.

I don't want jedi nerfed. In fact, I want the opposite, I want them to be stronger. What glory is there in defeting the crippled warrior?

I hear and read what the Jedi write about Bounty Hunters. It takes a lot for me to stay true to my calling after reading some of the posts. You complain about everything. You claim that I know nothing about what it's like...well, by the same token, you most likely don't have a clue what it's like to be a Bounty Hunter. You don't understand the frustrations that can come from playing against a character. You complain about hate tells... you have no idea. I recieve hate tells from players that I killed a month ago. They threaten me with all sorts of things. I have been banned from cities, and I have been 'stalked' by players seeking revenge.

You see, I won't attack you when you are buffed and have your saber equipped. I won't attack you when you are grinding on Dantooine. I won't even attack you when you are afk. I will attack you as you are getting a mind buff. I will attack you when you are fightclubbing. I will attack you when you think you are safe. You are never safe. Ever.

I find that there are many in my profession that don't play by my rules, but don't judge me by that same yardstick. Some are indeed scum, and others are as respectful as I am. In my experience, Jedi and Bounty Hunters alike, have those silly few that are just out to be face-to-face PVP monsters. I am above that. Don't lump me with them.

Do I believe in player bounties? Yes

Do I believe in killing Padawans? Yes...but only a select few that are worthy of my attention.

Do I kill Knights and Guardians? Yes.

Do I gank or use PSG's? No, and often times I am not even buffed when I attack...people are less threatened by the unbuffed Dancer

My greatest feat to date too me a month of planning, and they still aren't sure who killed them. That is my reward.

Examples of Killing for Money being Honorable:

• Soldiers: All soldiers are paid for their services, killing the enemy


• Samaurai: Were put on retainer to kill


• Assassin/Ninja: Obvious, but they were paid


• Mercenaries: Paid professions


• Gladiators: Often paid, even if that payment is freedom

Jedi kill without pay...does that make us better or worse? In fact, Jedi kill for prestige and self glorification (fight clubs)

Hey bro, we don't care.

You are an obstruction.

You are a distraction.

You are a flat tire on our journey.

In the end you lose, because we arive at our destination.

When you go perma overt, I will consider respecting you. Until then, you are cherry picker who plays the game in easy mode.
