Merely saying that a jedi hunting a bounty hunter is not making the game any less like STAR WARS.


I guess you just need it spelled out for you.


EDIT: I doa gree that the missions coming from shrines is weird. There should just be a Jedi npc that gave out missions. Also, since Jedi do not work for creds, we could receive some othertype of reward for completing missions.

/hear hear. Ill vote for that.






Too often players and the devs have a mindset that professions should be balanced with 1 on 1 pvp in mind. This mindset is ruining the game. The benchmark for balance should be determined by the role a profession plays in a group setting. As long as the current mindset continues we will never see uniqueness among the professions, nor will we ever see individuality within a given profession. We will never see the SWG universe expanded as the focus will only ever be balance pass after balance pass after balance pass.

If you want to hunt players so bad, that's what your alt is for.



Oh yeah... and Anakin and Obi-wan didn't go to Camino in search of Jengo...cause Jedi never ever ever went after bounty hunters.

Yes they did, in the movies. Are most "Jedi" going to continue to try and use certain parts of the movies to advance their own agenda and ignore other important aspects of the films, or can some actually see past that poor thinking?

They were instructed to. They weren't being paid by the Bounty Hunters Guild.

Well then Jedi could have an instruction terminal where they get instructions from other Jedi to investigate and take out a bounty hunters that has been murdering fellow Jedi.

How does that fit in with bounties on Jedi being more like a punishment for visibility and not a reward? What other reason is there for this idea except to "get the BHs back"? There isn't, that's the only reason.

Ateention Fellow Jedi:

This Bounty Hunter was mean to me. Kill him!


The whole idea makes no sense and is just the Jedi being all whiney that their classes have risk attached to them.

Bounty Hunters Hunt Bounties.

Jedi are not Bounty Hunter Hunters.

I agree...Jedi aren't hunters. When our profession's title is changed to "Jedi Hunter" then we can hunt.


Not to offend anyone, but the whole concept of Jedi hunting a Bounty Hunter is laughable. Jedi in the old days...(Ep I-III) might have hunted assassins of the Jedi, but, as you can see, we have no Jedi Order at the moment. Bounty Hunters hunt Jedi because it's a job they can choose under the current set of laws. Vader and the Emperor want all others dead. At least from a roleplaying sense.


On the literal hand, i don't see how 2 professions can be confined to 'hunt' eachother. It doesn't seem logical. Bounty Hunter's do what they do; hunt special target for a large sum of money. Jedi USED to be keepers of the peace...now they are sepratists who can wield the force. If we are going by storyline...a Jedi's duty shoudl be to rebuild the order, and with the FRS turned off...i see that hardly possible. So, we do need something.


But, in conclusion...Jedi shouldn't hunt Bounty Hunters...

Well thank you all for your arguements for and ageinst this idea. It seems upon reading the responces that folk have a good idea of the Jedis place in the game. I guess it apears what is needed is a Force Rank System and an idea about when to gamers shall recieve it. All this mystery and lack of communication from the game creators seems to be what is cause a good deal of the anguish expressed on the forums.


But then as a dark powers person I feel getting revenge to be whats needed sometimes.





How can you say you've lived life if you've never danced?
Well I do remember Han having a one piece suit made out of carbonite but it weighed a ton. Still it didnt require any ironing and was very wear resistant.
Thanks SOE! The CU and NGE gave me my life back. Thanks! Bitterness is the taste of love lost, a tear of acid that burns the heart.
Long gone, in sorrow of song. Stand I make to deliver hope with twisted temporal past, for the ripples in time distort what affects when. Prowlies a must see Clicky!
As a dreamer I sing to the sea and imagine the possibilities and potential this game could free, but when I get home a sad sight there be. A lost fool, for once was is gone, what could've been to never be, and the angel of my heart to be forgotten, locked away by the key of SOE.
