lol that happens to me a lot.


the worst case was when i played splinter cell too much and found myself subconciously avoiding light areas cast by streetlamps etc and watching which way security cameras were pointing and walking directly underneath them so they couldn't see me.


i'd be walking to the shop looking at doorways to gauge how dark they were, plotting my route ahead in my mind from one dark area to the next, looking for fire escapes to climb and eye-balling pedestrians as if they were terrorists who had to be avoided.


i think anyone who's played splinter cell would understand

They are indeed


I'm just wondering what it's going to be like if the FRS comes back with forced PvP between Jedi. You'll be able to walk over the lava with all the corpses as one Jedi chucks himself in to get away with the other immediately who jumps in after him to beat him to the cloner.

And why not do that since there is no pve loss experience and you might deny the BH his kill and or misson. Im fairly sure in a straight up non snaring, non kiting fight, I would be able to wallop most BH's. But I will do everything in my power to avoid them, since I despise being forced into content I dont want. Save me your tired old notes how " You choose to be Jedi". I like to play this game my way, not yours. So I will always do everything in my power to deny you (BH's) my toon as your content.


And no one forced you into having to hunt Jedi! Lava bath here i come!








It has been well known for a long time that to be a jedi means Bounty Hunters will come after you. That is the content. That is the game play. Regardless of whether you agree with it or not, those are the boundaries of the game. The Bounty Hunter attacks are just as much your content as theirs. XP or skill loss is nothing compared to what the devs originally intended to do to jedi who lost. Perma-death.


I can't stand it when people want to have uber-power at no risk. Sorry, it doesn't work that way.


And as an added note, going out of your way to ruin the gameplay of other people is against the EULA. Congratulations griefer.

You jump in and die, so does he. YOu both respawn in the same place.









Yeah, but he respawns without all his buffs and foods and a full stomach. lol. I'd face a BH like that ANY DAY.




Not to mention since you died first you'd probably load first and load kill him. If I remember, you still keep your tef from a pve death.

i learn more from the fight than the xp loss was worth.


too many spinners. not enough Jedi.






Because most of us have lives outside here and dont have time to grind off 600k jedi xp. That would take me a week to grind off with the amount of time that I play.

I now refuse to regrind or grind for evermore. Being a Jedi should not be about how many moles you whap with your lightstick. Now that I have used up my skill points and several of my skills have been stealth nerfed or tactics forced to change and I'm still forced to be another profession's content. I will run first, fight if I have to. Win or lose. I am going to try to start to enjoy the content of this game first and if I gain XP along the way soI can change my template, great! If I lose XP, oh well that s|_|cks but I would like to enjoy doing some quests and gaining some of the rewards for doing so. It's just sad that my quests will be interrupted by a few decent BHs and even more l337 whiney d00ds wanting to ruin my fun.


To each their own.

Uber power? Are your playing the same game as us??? Jedi are no more powerful than a regular class. Why should they have the penalties without the reward?

I'm not sure if this was already said, but even if the Jedi were to commit Suicide VIA the Lava.... the BH still retains the Bounty... also, even if BOTH the BH and the Jedi Die VIA Lava, the BOUNTY is still retained.... so basically, it would just send you back to the Cloner, and so... the BH, could still track you, and hunt you... sorry to ruin your Idea... but I know that it is still retained by the BH....



This is how i know... i Played a Jedi in BETA, had a BH find and attacked me... however we were near the Salvage Miners, so i had some time to get away... and so i got onto my Flea, and went into the lava.... the BH, eventually followed me, got off of his Flea, shot mine... we both died, and he Cloned before me, so he would have been able to still come after me... THAT IS HOW I KNOW...

QFE
jedi are no longer more powerful than any other full template,in fact in some ways weaker because we have everyoine gunning for us.
i dont play my jedi on the ground anymore because its depressing how weak jedi realy are in this game. if anything the BH/CM of the galaxy should be hunted because of uber power.
