Consitering its been announced that the FRS is being redone in the future, my simple request is that the devs turn off vis being gained from NPC's. I'ts very upsetting to me being cut off from almost all the fun content because I don't want to be ganked by a BH and forced into a PVP situation just because I want to enjoy the game with my friends.
It would seem to me that if I kill an NPC he's not going to be telling anyone that I am a jedi after all.
The BH's won't be short of player jedi to hunt consitering all the jedi who just can't help using powers even in the middle of the busiest cities.Imho, these are the jedi thatSHOULD end up on the terms. As long as ungrouped players still generated vis the system would work just as well.
While a more complex system of adding vis timers to NPC's that arent slain in a certain amount of timemight be a better solution, I understand the devs have a full plate atm, and this temporary fix would make the game alot more fun for us jedi who like to try to avoid vis like a jedi in this time period should.

Cmon noone out there thinks this would make a good interim fix while we wait for the new FRS??

No, the "fix" is coming wit the new frs aparently, it just gets frustrating that we are cut off from most of the games content under penalty of skill loss.

I would be happy if they just put your visibility rating where the old Battle Fatigue rating was that way you can see your visibility rating. Other than that, I think the visability system is a lot friendlier on the Jedi then it should be. All players that should have the option of reporting you to the BH mission terms automatically, and none should be automatic. I think that would add a little realism to the game.

I wouldn't mind a more realistic vis system even if it was tougher, but what it boils down to for me is that if I kill all the npcs within 32m who exactly is reporting me as a jedi? At least then we would have a fair shot at all the games content.

I agree 100 pct there. Same with cloak giving you vis although mobs can't see you. Unless all SWG mobs are force sensitive.

I cant believe you are going to complain about this, all these CU jedi have it so easy, u can group to grind, no xp loss from pve death or pvp, Pre CU it took u months of solo grinding all alone on the edge of the maps. I helped a friend get full temp from scratch in two weeks even taking it slow u can make full temp in a month. Its a joke and you are going complain about being cut off from content. Its nothing now compared to what it used to be.

Man why do people continue to ask for more visibility nerfs? Do you have any idea how reduced it is already?? You don't get it from groups anymore, not to mention you have no xp loss from PvE death anymore. Seems like they have made Jedi easier and easier to get. Is there absolutely no room in this game for realism?

actually you do have it easier on the visibility. try the long and boring solo grind for xp. even then, the pop up npc's were what put you on the boards. group grinding with no vis is a gift. you dont go vis at the first sight of an npc or pc, its just the amount of time and what you do to that npc or pc that rises the chances of being on the terms. what would help u more is to understand the system better.
