Being hunted repeatedly by the same BH is stated to be harrasment. They have started to implement game mechanics to prevent this. i.e No more Jedi names on the terms.

Spawning SBDs every time you loot the DWB IS an intended game mechanic to prevent someone from continually looting it without consequence. Cloaking while looting it is getting around this game mechanic.
But someone repeatedly looting the DWB is not my main concern. Training large mobs on other players to purposely kill them is.
Yes well, when you're the only dang guild online and not camping the trails, the BH's kinda visit us a lot.
Having said that, dragging mobs on other players is wrong, and I agree with you onthat sir.

Good, we agree. Normally in the DWB this is hard to do because if you have 10 SBDs agroed your going to be dead long before you can drag this mob to another player. But if your cloaked they agro you, follow you, and kill others but you can't be attacked.
So how do you propose it be fixed?
ok from what i have seen in the DWB the SBD that chase cloaked jedi around wont attack other groups unless they attack them first, they normaly walk back to there own areas, secondly if you want to see Cloak being NERF'ED then all that has to be done is to remove the ability to loot while cloaked as then they cant recloak witht he aggroed SBD within 10 m and will have to fight them selfs out...
SO DONT AGGRO THE SBD THEY WONT ATTACK YOU
SCREAM NERF IF YOU WANT BUT YOU ONLY HAVE TO MAKE LOOTING POSSIBLE WHILE UNCLOAKED..
at this rate all jedi powers will be in masters box's! when its not the power but the lack of though in game design..

Thats not true. What if you are healing? They will attack. What if your in combat with something else? They will attack. This IS an issue. Plain and simple.
I don't care if cloak is moved toMaster Powers or not. But I do think cloak should be broken by droids. It should be broken by interacting with other players (healing someone). It should be broken by interacting with items in the game world.

kurso STOP CRYING LIKE A FEMALE PANDA!
cloak is not an exploit, what about before cu and powers had mind trick which was the ability to argo mobs to attack players. is that an exploit too, is it an exploit when u go overt and get attacked by npc mobs, what if i was hidding ain a base is that an exploit? cloak maybe broken but its not an exploit so stop trying to get it nerfed.

Because you are NOT TALKING ABOUT SPECIFIC BEHAVIOR. You are talking about nerfing an entire community to solve the problem of a few players, probably not even on my server.Most of the people using cloak are rebels on my server, and I'm anything but that. I still say that the power should stay where it is. It makes things more interesting to fight those opponents and I don't need to nerf them to enjoy them as opponents.
The same argument you espouse was what got ATSTs nerfed the first time. I never once even visited the krayt graveyard and my ATSTs were nerfed because of whiners griping about a very small percentage of the playerbase doing that.
How about this, REMOVE the DWB. That would solve the problem.

What is broken? That is the fault of your argument. The player is training. AND ANYONE CAN TRAIN aggro on you. The fact that they are cloaked is where you are asking for the nerf. Start arguing for the banning of the player that is training instead of the nerf to a skill that is not broken. Again you don't like it so nerf it. The demise of so much in our community is based on arguments like this. I changed the title of the post going forward.
make cloak not work against droids...it clouds minds...even droid brains? with sensor inputs?...
