I grind about 200k in an hour with a full group.

A BH comes every 45 min just about. I'm mister popular apperently.

If a BH does kill me. I lose 266k XP. WOOT! So this theory of grouping up ot get more XP is total BS. And the Solo grind is also TOTAL BS. 20k an hour woot! not worth my time.

Nope they need to fix the Visabilty system and the BH system B4I continue grinding.

Come on, now. Those are bogus stats. If a BH killed you every time, that would be true, but if you're alert and run every time you see someone approach, your deaths will be rare indeed. It's inconvenient, but true.

Additionally, SOE screwed us all with the respec allowing everyone and their brothers to respec to BH and avoid the investigation grind. There's some major imbalance.

Note to anti-Jedi immersion BH's. Guess what, in the star wars universe of this era, there were very few Jedi, so any BH's didn't make their living off of hunting Jedi. The only BH contract I saw in the films was someone hunting a smuggler, Han Solo. Get off your high horses. SOE needs to expand the BH contract list to other professions dealing in contraband me thinks, and let Jedi have their day in the sun, too.

Back on topic. Grind in groups, and stay alert. Don't even go on a restroom break without parking your Jedi in a safe place, or log out safely, then return when you're fully atk.

And SOE, come on, let's get on the ball. More balance for grinding weak Jedi toons, and find a way to cut down on the perception of overpopulation of Jedi... by creating strong consequences for revealing ourselves in major cities. Let us prosper, as such, in the outback player cities, the fields, and the dungeons, but major cities should have us hiding our identities in a major way.

Not Bogus Man. The other nightI ground for 4 hours I got 6 BHs in that time. The the next morning whenI had finished grinding I was gogin to get trained and I log in to go get trained and maybe find a group to hutn with. I travel maybe 1000m from my safe house on tat tot he nearest city im waiting for the shuttle and BAM i get hsi with KD ROOT and im dead. -260k . NOT BOGUS AT ALL!

Correct me if I'm wrong, because the only time I've been killed was when lag made me believe the BH was shooting another Jedi in the group, and other than that one time, I've never been killed by a BH all the way to my full template today...

But if you were killed by a BH, didn't that clear you from the other bounties? So are you saying that you were attacked/killed 6 times in 4 hours? Anyone smell any inaccuracies here?

That aside, Yes, the BH proliferation is insane thanks to the respec. But still, I hunted XP in packs of other Jedi, and Yes, our "group" would get hit 4 or 5 times per night. Some of those Jedi in the group were killed, other times the BH was killed, and more than either of those two situations, the Jedi just ran away and came back in a while.The actual rate of Jedi death resulting from a BH arriving on the group, was very low. Maybe one out of the 5 times our group would get raided, or no Jedi deaths at all resulting.

Plus, hitting 10 lairs in a groupeasilywipes out one death event. And in a full group, that's 16 lairs per set (8 players x 2 missions each.) So just in one set, you'd be ahead. I did 3 sets or more per online session. That's 3 times back to the mission terminal for more missions.

I fail to see how you're not coming out ahead.

I like the wookie world and stone teleport idea. Have to recommend that to my guild.

Also, Jedi takes support. If you're running around with a bunch of unreliable "me, me, me" kids who'd be just as comfortable playing Quake3, then you're not getting the type of support you need in a MMORPG. Join a guild of mature players, and dont start off with your first steps begging for help and making an annoyance of yourself. Keep trying, help others, participate, and you'll find your guild more than helpful in your Jedi grind. If not, proly time for a new guild. It's a long process, don't look for immediate payoff, and turn off the people around you. Be patient, give more than you get, and you'll get the help you need.
