it sucks. KD/dizzy works well on janta on dantooine but not as well as rifle
it works for crap on nite sisters got my butt HANDED to me like it hasnt happened since i was a raw noob figuring out that bone armour and rifles dont work together...
i miss my cats and pets.
i miss my krayt T21.
i cant kill anything solo that has more than around 9-10k ham.
it works well for hunting people. but not for about anything else. the bounty missions are fun but that isnt enough. im 20k investigation from master and im trying to finish it but soon as i do im dropping it and going back to my pets and rifles.

didn't you remember it being that way before? 
i miss my bh days for the state effects in pvp-- it was fun to actually combo someone to death (don't get me wrong, i spammed eyeshot against the helmetless... but for the good players who had good helmets, i had a sweet set of macros for carbine/pistol attacks). but, in PvE I was always the 90lb weakling around the rest of my guildmates.

yeah i guess i kinda got excited about them fixing the droids and all and forgot about the PVE part being kinda bad... having a huge choice of weapons and managing state effects is fun but it just isnt effective once they are all applied. its like okkkkk now what.
i guess im just going to hang my silver plated DL44 on the wall along with my scatter llc DH17 snubbie and laser. a lot of fun switching back and forth but its just about as effective as throwing whiffle balls.
it just brought it all home last nite when i went out nite sister elder hunting with a TKM and a master doc. all i could do is set it on fire for 500 damage a wack i had no tanking ability at all. we all got killed because i didnt have my gurreck. rifles wont hurt em but my pets could have held em while the TK regen'd tween rounds.
i guess i kinda glossed over the fact that BH sucks for everything but hunting humans. its amazing what we conviently forget about heh.

i've been tempted a few times to drop the MCH/MRifle template... but i've always been afraid that i would miss it... and the grind back to MCH would be very bad...
i started a toon on a different server just to try somethings out, but i can't seem to find anything i like as my main toon...
good luck with the investigation, and we'll be seeing back shortly...

Ya BH is different, if you want to hunt BIG PVE game it's not for you. Now if you want to hunt down Jedi Powergamers it's the thing you want to be![]()
Oh and they said they are going to be doing a total PC bounty system were PC's get a bounty on them for bad NPC faction, I can't wait to hunt and be hunted![]()

im not worried about the grind back to MCH
i got a hoard of beasties to help with that. it will just take me a full week instead of half a week this time heh.
im 1k from investigate3 should have that tonite easy and see how it goes when i get master BH. but im not hopeful. this grind to MBH has just made me realize that i really do like big game hunting better than hunting people. as a BH its all solo. i like to play solo but i also like an occasional group effort and as a BH i am about the definition of useless in a group effort. dunno maybe MBH and running jedi missions will be fun.
