Thread: How unlucky :(

I'm cloaked not far from the Imp base on Yavin 4 and this guy comes to my exact spot and circles me a few times. So I check him out and he's doc buffed with the MBH profession. Pretty obvious he's for me, and since I'm in the mood for a scrap, I take my food. He heads into the base where the starport is, so I casually uncloak and walk up and wait at the entrance as though I've no idea he's there.I can see hom checking me out, and I'm thinking 'any second now'. Sure enough he attacks so first thing I do is root him and close in. AB followed by Powerhit followed by KD followed by a leg / body / head hit combo. One more hit and he's dead and my adrenaline is flowing. I hit my leg hit one more time, but next thing I know I'm on the deck next to him and he's getting up. Suddenly I see another BH with a scatter blasting into me and this time my healths going down fast. I manage to get up stick on a heal, but if I stay and fight, I'm dead. No chance against two.I activate Fr2, get enough distance and cloak in time. The two must have /follow Calel becuase they're on me like glue. I turn, they turn (on swoops by now).In the end I had no option but to force run to the starship term and jump planets.So there you go. Almost another notch, but not quite. Pretty unlucky to get two on me at the same time, but this is the 3rd time in a row now. This was pretty obvious though. It was clear they both figured the Starport was the best place to wait for me since there was no other for miles.Not a rant / nerf call / whine, just sharing a story.Edit: Of forgot to add, the reason I didnt incap the 1st BH was becuase I auto targeted the 2nd BH as soon as he shot meMessage Edited by Calel_Haven on 09-07-2005 01:46 PM
I had the same thing happen to me. Except I wasn't so lucky and ended up dead.

I actually had something close to that happen, within 20minutes of logging on i had 3 bh's. first one came to the house, killed him, waited about 10minutes before leaving to shuttleport. get there get into another fight, and as soon as i kill him.. maybe 5seconds after i deathblow him, another BH engages me,a nd i kill him too. yea.. that was a fun day.
Wasn't it supposed to be that multiple BHs having your mission, let alone attacking you,is impossible?

Nope. The number of BHs who can have your mission hasn't changed, as far as I've seen. I had 3 come for me within an hour and a half.
They removed names from the terminals so you can't pick out a jedi to beat on in a big group, and they also removed offline jedi from the subset of missions that gets spit out to BHs who refresh the terminal.
Sometimesif there's a VERY small set of jedi online (or if there are *tons* of hunters taking jedi missions at the same time),two BHsend up getting a mission on the same jedi at about the same time. My friend and I have gotten identical missions on 3 separate occasions and we certainly weren't trying for it. Usually I back off and let the next guy take a crack at the jedi instead of ganking him, because 1v1 is much more rewarding.
I don't think there's any way fortwoor more BHsto engineer concurrent missions anymore, short of pulling them andusing "identify target" over and over -- and that's REALLY not worth the time.
And he's dead too. It was a tough fight, I hate MCM, but looks like the advice I got hear about how to deal with them paid off.
The wonder why we get good, just look at all the practice they give us!
