I'm just curious how many other jedi would like it if using your powers around anyone not grouped with you would bring back an "overt" status and if any death resulting in that lost XP. The BHs in theory are holding back some of the noob jedi.. which I'm all for honestly.. we all know there are to many of us. I just think it'd be another good way to nerf the flood gates of jedi flooding in these days. At the same time I honestly think it would make it more than 10x harder on us not being anywhere near as powerful as we were(where's my pre pub 9 people, represent) back in our olden days. Especially without our FRS system as well. I'm not posting this to get the Devs to look at it.. i'm just wanting to know if anyone else wouldnt mind having a few of our older ideas brought back?

I would love a new "saber tef" system, but this is from an almost fully templated Jedi. It would definately suck being special forces, saber tefd, and have BH on us. Then agian it would be our fault for being all 3 of those things but it would be nice if we were a tad stronger we might be able to handle that. Also, by stronger I don't mean a 5 bh vs 1 jedi fight. I think 2-3 bh vs a jedi would be fair. As of now, I don't know many people who can take more than 2 people on them.

I wouldn't mind saber tef and skill box loss again, but only if we received additional power in exchange for the added risk. If they would fix pearl drops, increase the damage output of dervish and the dps of powers, and unnerf healing, I would take back the old saber tef and skillbox loss system without hesitation. As it stands now,manyfull templatepost cu jedi are weaker than fotm BHs. Thus, any additional penalties are simply not warranted at the moment.

this goes back to the old... _I want all jedi except for "MINE" to be rare_ post of long ago... fact is, you can't make jedi more rare, slow down the influx of jedi... without making it completely impossible to get a jedi. It's already ridiculously hard to get a jedi... it's already ridiculously LONG and boring to level one up. Fact is people who keep bringing up these types of complaints are fully templated jedi that are getting sick of seeing more and more jedi every day. Get over it. jedi aren't rare because everyone wants to be one and will stop at nothing till they have it.

I'd support a Saber tef if same faction Jedi(Or same alignment in the FRS when it returns) can help
a fellow Jedi undersiege by a Bounty Hunter.

Not right that I have to stand and watch my friends being attacked when I cant do anything about it

saber tef would be good i agree
and i liked it when you could help a jedi that was in your group when a bh came after him that was cool too.

I was MCH BH in those days and truly the days of 15 BH being slaughtered by a jedi is now appealing as I am Jedi now, but all in all this is another bad idea, the 1337 sploiters would have the rest of community screaming nerf so fast that we would all be unhappy. My opinion for slowing the flow of jedi is to make Village quest longer, more engaging, and maybe even fun...... Phase 2 vehicle control 4 instance, 4 hours of driving to village then driving way out on endor, rinse repeat, no good loot, or xp, this is key example of a lackluster approach to adding content.

they can't start taking away our xp if most anyone can beat a jedi, they have nerfed jedi and aren't even done nerfing us yet

I'm not asking for a change in power(of course i want one.. hehe) I just want that one piece of content back.. i really enjoy the whole idea and concept of being TEF'd everytime you use a power/saber. I'm not going to lie.. of course I want the power that went with it.. but I could easily see how PvP would become a Jedi only event.. and make the game pointless for others to even think of PvPing.. I just enojoyed TEF's in that nature and was curious if anyone else missed it.

straight up. As long as there are die hard STAR WARS fans playing this game, which id imagine their are quite a few, the jedi population will continuing to increase. Why? Because to people like me, which i have been a hardcore STAR WARS fan since i first saw episode 5 when i was 2 years old, STAR WARS = JEDI. And people like me will stop at nothing to achieve that end. So the real solution to the jedi population problem is ban us STAR WARS fans that view STAR WARS = JEDI from playing the game.






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.
