Thread: Rangers, please read! Player bounty stuff.
I am not trying to start a PA or guild in game. You would have no commitments such as meetings or guild responsibilities if you were to become a 'member' of this little organization I'm putting together. All I would have is your character's name and your e-mail address, and then all you have to do is kill people and get paid, or if you're a ranger, track people and get paid. OR, hire someone to kill someone and pay them.
That's right. I'm just trying to traffic any requests for player bounties. Factional targets? Leaders of opposing guilds? Whatever you want.
As a 'bounty hunter' for this association you will have given your e-mail address to me. When someone comes to me with a mission, I will e-mail you with mission details, and once the mission is completed (or failed) you will be paid (or not!). You would require NO ACTUAL BOUNTY HUNTING SKILLS to work as a bounty hunter for this association. The difficulty of your missions will depend on what combat skills you do have. Anyone who applies as a hunter will be accepted and, as long as people supply us with missions you'll be working quickly.
Rangers! Come one come all. As a ranger you can sign up as a tracker, and when a bounty hunter gets his mission he can request tracker assistance, in which case you will get 15% of the overall payout.
Of course the most important thing is the customer. We need people to give us missions to do! Rebels, Imperials, it's a time of war in the game and we're depending on you to hire us to dispatch your adversaries.
So, if any of this intrigues you, whether you want to be a hunter, tracker or client, pleasego to our new (sloppily made) website,

where you can join us or hire us!
Thank you,
There's a similar system in place on Valcyn, but I don't think there is any particular organization which does it. Essentially though, people volunteer to be bounties, which is your main sticking point.. As PvP is by consent only, the bounty would have to be overt or TEF'd when an overt, opposite faction bounty hunter found them, or consent to a duel. The former might be considered griefing unless the bounty consented, and the latter is impossible without the bounty's consent.
Just some things to consider.
