/agree

There just might be a way, I won't give any hints but lets just say it is quite possible for more than 1 hunter to pull your mission, confirmed. As any earlier poster stated I myself do alsoenjoy the challenge of 2 bouny hunters at times but anymore than that is a little much with all this "balance" I'm suffering from.





You know what totally kills the point you fellas are trying to make.....the claim that its "Easier to pick jedi from the terminal for a group gank."


1. Nothing could be "Easier" then having THE FREAKING NAME RIGHT ON THE TERMINAL, the statement you guys make is so patently foolish as to completely nullify anything else you say.


If there is a method(and there isn't .....


PROVE IT! PM me with it, if your right I will eat my words and raise holy h*ll with SOE to get it fixed. Look fellas there are many ways to design this so people can't pull the same missions on Jedi WITHOUT HAVING A 1 BH MISSION PER JEDI RULE...here's couple that you can suggest if you like (since no one has bothered to give a constructive method....as that would not support thier desire to have only 1 easily killed BH after them at a time):



1. Generate the Jedi target when the BH speaks to the informant ( this way no amount of searching for patterns on the terminal would be possible or worthwhile...not that it is now lol). This means that you will have to talk to the spynet guy to activate the mission...currently you don't have to actually have the sig to target your Jedi...


2. Generate the Jedi target when the Akrayd droid is launched....again same principle.


Now for all we know, they do this already


JUST REMEMBER 1 BHMISSION PER JEDI MEANS MORE JEDI NERFS!

Oh...and make it so that Bounty Hunters have to ask permission to take your mission first! And make it so that only MBH/Image Designers can take player bounties. And make it so they have to use CDEF pistols only. And....



You are being rediculous!

Would you please tell these paranoids that there is no fullproof system to pulling the same Jedi with multiple Bounty Hunters, I have been trying to explain it to them for 2 pages and they still don't get it.


/whisper Of course if you know how PM me


ROFL. These folks that identify themselves only with the Jedi class in game need to wake up to the fact that other professions exist and you may have to interact with them on occasion.

Im not saying that there is a sure fire way for this to happen but the only time my guildies and I have ever tracked the same mark was do to the jedi being neutral that is it. I spend over 45 minutes one day looking for a mark that a guildy had and was currently fighting.. I knew the payout, mission giver, description, faction, and name but I could never find it.. I found one with the same descrtiption but it was not the same mark. I also found one with the same payout but it was a different faction.

And on my jedi I have never been attacked by more then 1 bh at a time but I have guildies who have had multiple but as for my bh results I have to come to the conclusion that it is random.

Oh and DLEK one question you stated that you found a mark and wrote down all the info and then dropped the mission and pulled it again when you found the same info.. Now can you try that again but you continue to hold the mission and give someone else all the info and have them pull the same mission? The reason I ask is because of my own resluts and I have not been able to do this.

THANK YOU SIR, FINALLY A VOICE OF REASON HAS ARRIVED.


Your results mirror my own, but these guys continue to want to believe in the conspiracy theory. None of them has PM'd the method to me or the correspondent. It is my belief that they are simply restating the URBAN legend.

I am just going off of my own experience and in that I see no way to make it happen all the time. So hence I have concluded that it is random. Others might have better luck then I have.

If there is no way to get the same Jedi as Baghdad Bob keeps swearing to, then what is the problem with limiting the missions issued to just 1? I mean the only way any BH would fight against that is if he knew he could get help with them. And since there is no way to get any specific mission, as per Mr. Baghdad Bob, then it can't be exploited by Jedi's BH alts, as they can't find their own mission.....



so again, what is the problem with it limited to 1?

Sigh......then the Jedi will have to be nerfed so they are on par with a single Bounty Hunter.....go back a few posts lol.


/sarcasmOn


I am all for it. Lets do it! Fire up the nerfbat Devs and give these guys what they want 1 on 1 vs any BH


/sarcasmOff


Your forgetting I have Jedi as well. If you guys keep pushing for this change based on this trumped up non-existant exploit, we just might get it. Thats spells weaker Jedi...which means...more playtime on my alt. BH

I am in favor of adding names to the terms, leaving the payout hidden like it is, and restricting it to 1 BH per mission.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


we can't do what you describe because a player would use his alt to hold his mission.

jedi would not need to be nerfed to be on par with bounty hunters. jedi should be stronger to justify the loss of xp upon bh deathblow. the bounty hunter system is intended to be one vs. one, jedi vs. bounty hunter as stated explicitly by the developers. there is no reason to enable more than one bounty hunter to take a jedi mission at a time. there is no way i would take the time to take mission after mission over and over with my alt to get the mission on my jedi, only to have it decay after 3 days. it would take hours to get a specific jedi mission if it is possible at all without extreme luck.

Ok, this is how it is done. And just so you know, i was in the NS cave. BH came for me as i exited it. I killed the bh. got on my swoop and headed back to the Science Outpost. By the time I got there (about 5 minutes), the SAME bh had cloned, got my mission and returned to Science.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


i believe that the bh did not get your mission a second time. i believe he used an exploit that i witnessed once that enabled him to attack you from the cloner because the mission did not clear. a bounty hunter on my server did the same thing in theed to a jedi in my guild and 8 players witnessed it. the jedi killed the bounty hunter, the bounty hunter cloned and attacked the jedi straight from the cloner... this repeated over and over. i watched as the bounty hunter died, cloned and attacked the jedi at least six times in a row. we all fedthe jediforce while the bh was cloning and then couldn't assist any further once the bh attacked each time. eventually the jedi left and logged off. we all created tickets to report the bounty hunter.
