Thread: Tuesday Tip and the ongoing Jedi/BH war
Might have to check that when I get home.
From that thread:
your wrong quickdraw then root and theres no timer at all. You do nothing more then promote griefing. Good Job on the CU it did nothing in terms of balance
I think giving a cooldown for being effected again by root or going the way of other games who i won't mention and make is a lessened reward so 1st root is 100% effective 2ndroot is 50-75% as effective in duration and chance to hit third root is 25-50% as effective
It's about time we had real posses going after these Renegade Jedi! It's also time that the Jedi's friends can help protect the Jedi from the posse. Just think how much fun it would be for a group of 8 master Bounty Hunters to go after a Jedi and end up finding a group of 8 Jedi. Completely against the Star Wars timeline (but the Jedi already@#(*@# are against it!), but it'd be total fun for both sides.
uhhh, this was already done before and turned into a jedi gank squad for a solo bh or vice versa. the stopping shot issue should be resolved with a timer plain and simple not a nerf. as a mpistoleer bh pre cu and now, i have always waited for this special to actually work as described. the jedi are crying about it mostly and you know what happens when they do that....starts with a N and ends with an ERF. personally i feel there are other things that should be looked into like insane heals on the jedi side.
i will take a timer for stopping shot to be effective again if jedi will take a longer timer on heals.
i would also like to know if anyyone is affected by the kd bug? i get kd'd in pvp and my kd recovery goes black. sometimes it takes me about 3-4 minutes to stand up.

I stuck drain on Tommy' and he just forceran right through it so I dont think they are too worried about movement speed debuffs. It's the Roots that make the jedi cry.
Yeah, but forceruns buggered and giving way too high speeds (otherwise, the lad I messed with would have been hit by another root, I'd have switched to my 60m gun,eaten parwan and *then* he could've tried to run....) until they patch later today, and if you activate any forcerun other than 1 you get a damage reduction of 95%(?).
... they're not crying *yet* 
So glad I went with one branch of CM rather than two in rifleman...

Why oh why does everyone assume that jedi is the only proff that suffers fromt his. there are other melee proffs out there. would you guys be pissed if the Swordsmen rallied because they were being chain rooted? NO. You are all pretty smart people guess why Jedi are rallying. because they don't decide when they PvP, like the other melee proffs. So don't go putting the blame on Jedi getting the sepcial nerfed.
The Fact is it wasn't thought out. how much fun would a pistoleer have if 5 riflemen who picked up pistoleer stood at 64m and chain rooted you to death and you couldn't get 1 shot off? it's the same thing
But those profs aren't whining about it (so far as I know). "Jedi" want all the benefits, and none of the penalties, they want an "I Win" button. And like one poster said, 5v1 I'd expect to die, whether I got a shot off or not. And it's not like we weren't warned that Jedi would be a "hard" profession. So if you choose to go Jedi, then you KNOW it's going to be hard, so S T F U and move on already, and quit getting other professions nerfed in your quest for the "god mode".

The real issue is that the Jedi are lying, pure and simple. There was never5 MBH or 4 or 3 chain rooting him. He got rooted once and hated it because him 15 seconds longer to kill the guy hunting him. How do I know ?
How can 3,4,5 BH get the same EXACT mission in less than 9 hours of hitting refresh over and over , grouped together, and all be MBH/MP's ? It can't happen. The BH terms or bugged, and have been forever.
This scenario they claimed happened, actually never did happen, and if 5 MBH/MP's got together and sat a terminal for 9 hlours hitting refresh to get the same mission, then suprised this Jedi and chain rooted him SHOULD kill him. Which I don't think any can kill the correct tenmplate Jedi, since there is a few seconds between when root effects go away and the next applies, they can force cloak/and use their bugged but not being correct force run to get away/drop a house and enter with a TEF etc.
But, 1 Jedi came up with this lie, and now the Dev's jumped immediatley (read that thread its amazing, 1 Jedi complaied, and TH jumps!) and now pistoleers are being nerfed.

First of all you can take your "S T F U" and stuff it back down your pocket. I'm in no way trying to nerf Pistoleer.or any proffesion for that matter.Did i say jedi want an I win button? No. Stop assuming things. I simply stated the reason that Jedi are the most vocal about it. and like it or not Jedi is in the game, because you choose not to be one is not the Jedi's fault.
