Thread: Would you be ok with Jedi bounties in space if there was no xp loss?

Earlier today I started this thread on the BH forums about having NPC missions in space to give some variety to NPC BHing. There has been some mention of Jedi hunting in it as well, and I made this comment regarding the subject of hunting Jedi in space:

"As far as Jedi go, I personaly think if they were able to be hunted in space they should not lose any xp. Why? In space they are not Jedi. They have no Jedi powers. Sure, let us fight them for the fun of being able to still fight PC marks in space, but whether they lose any xp or not it wont matter to us. If we win we will still have had the fun and gotten the payout just like normal, and if they lose they wont have gotten the xp loss in exchange for them not being able to use force powers in space."


So I wanted to bring this question to the Jedi community. Would you be ok with being hunted in space if you didnt have an xp loss to deal with as a result?

First thought is that with no XP loss, who cares...... but.... it would be very annoying to get shot 50 minutes into an hour mission for the tier 3 boxes.

How about.. no.


I believe there is a place in space for PvP actions already.

No. Ground game and space game are different, and I actually use JtL when I am a little tired of the ground game. I dont need to take ground issues into space. When I want PvP in space, I will declare and enter Kessel or Deepspace.

Which is why I do not think Jedi should have any force powers, or lose any Jedi xp if killed in space

Isnt that the very purpose of Jedi unlocking another slot? To have a character that they dont have to worry about being hunted w/? If you can simply go to space and not have to worry about being hunted if you've gotten on the terms, maybe the 2nd character isnt needed...





PS: I'm a Jedi too, but I dont think I'd mind the supprise and excitement that comes w/ spontaneous PvP as long as I didnt have anything to lose from it. Yes, it would admittedly be annoying to be in the middle of something and be attacked, but w/ names not on the terms, its not like you would have it happening to you every day(unless your on a server w/ a low Jedi population)

I think it would be alot of fun. I can understand the annoyance to those trying to do quests or work on their pilot profession, but I still think it would be worth it. The problem is, with no xp loss, someone might figure out a way to exploit it. Get mission, go to space, send probe, get name, send tell to the jedi that "hey, we should go to space and let me kill you, then we can split the money". Then bye bye space missions or hello xp loss. Either way, it would kill the idea.

No bounties in space. Jedi are not 1.5x there and therefore do not need the added risk. Risk of having your quest ruined or taking decay on starship components.

which is exactly why he says "if there was no xp loss"

I'm all for it, I think it'd be great.

Right jedi are not 1.5......they are on even terms with the BH now......it will though force alot of players to take thier flying skills more seriously........hell keep the xp loss.....what i do think IMO is that if a BH fails, they wind up on the terms themselves...now that would be cool......

P.S. the only thing i would ask if XP loss was kept would be that, in space they lose the first strike and are attackable from the start
