i had maybe 7 bugged missions not including inves 0, i had like 3 there, so i had about 10 bugs in my entire investigation grind, i was pleasently surprised by this...i know how sad that sounds that i was happy with only 10 bugs lol...it should be no bugs but ill take what i can get

For an invisible mark who ninja'd me for 1100 damage!
And then when I went back for retribution he completely ignored all my attempts at knocking down and posture changing to run up to me faster than I can run away with a Master Scouts worth of terrain negotiation and hit me in my weakened action pool for 700 points of damage!
I probably would have done better if not for the invisible mark bug... damn that ninja. Damn him to hell!

Sounds like the early "uber" marks...but these now have cloaking devices too....

This might make you smile, a while ago when grinding the invest tree i tracked down a mark on Dantooine. There he was, stood there twiddling his thumbs as i jumped off my speeder and set up a camp to get the probot out. After a momentary lapse i decided nah,these are all to easy i wont bother with the probot, so i started hitting him with the LLC expecting him to fall down and die within about 15 secs, so i could be on my way.
After one hit, he turned, kneeled and hit me with what seemed to be a double special shot that instantly halved my health pool, a little startled i charged toward him and unleashed a barrage of LLC shot at close range and watched his HAM drop to almost zero, but not before he managed to hit me again with what seemed to be an unusally overpowered shot again.
I remembered thinking perhaps i am getting a little complacent and should treat these marks with more respect as i watched his arms fly back and his legs hop in the air as he died, and the message, mission complete reward has been placed into your account flash up on the screen. But as he dropped to the floor, therekneeling in front of me was his identical twin brother with 100% HAM !!
I considered turning and running, i considered unleashing more LLC pain but i was so suprised i stood there and groaned, and within about a second fell to the floor incapped. I had obviously been taking hits from both of them together in synchronised defence whilst the one in the front tanked for his sibbling !
To add insult to injury he pranced around me until i had about 10 seconds left to get up before db'ing me and what made matters worse, when i got back hell bent on revenge he was gone, vanished without a trace !!
Perhaps he had gone to bury his brother.
Setweu MBH and no i am not giving it up for nothing !!!

My best/worst mark was on Lok. I found him swimming across a lake, and he was just within 64m. Easy, i thought to myself - yeah right!
After having been hit by an insane amount of damage, and being incapped, i had the pleasure of lying on my back, watching the incap counter go down.
While this was happening, my mark was slowly swimming towards me.
I was sitting there, shouting at the screen, begging the counter to get to 0.
You know what - 5 secs left on it and he got to the shore and Death Blowed me.
Now that was fun! (no really, my pulse was racing!)

I've had that double mark thing too Setweu, when they cautch you by supprise and you dont realize thier is two of them its tough your right
... after the first time that happened to me I was a little more prepared the second time I ran into a double mark and smoked them both (only got bh xp for the first one
) Had to get them both dizzy/kd'd and then it was cake. The first time though I had very simliar experiance as you though
psI /bug'devery mission I have had with double marks,so atleast they know it happens.

have you downloaded the new patch, and they are back? Cuz after #7 the started animating right when you drop them and turn them on but once you leave they were running into the same non-animating problem.

sadly it seems you are right, and my joy was premature, i just drove by a bunch of dead harvestors.
i didn't realize they animate when you drop them

I tamed my mantrigue screecher today! It was the first lair i went to, the very first mission i pulled. the lair was level 168, he was one of the orginal spawns before i tapped the lair. was a total pain in the ass too cause i have no weapon i cant use. my maskscent kept failing, and there was a roba spawn right next to the mantrigue lair so the baby kept getting attacked. but i got him!
