I posted this on the Bloodfin board and it was only met with immature answers about not healing Overt Faction members. Delta told me to post it here, since the Scout board is the "Friendliest Forum in all of SWG"

Anyway, here's the long story short. I was hunting a cu pa's on Tatooine with my pet Carrion Spat. After a while, I set up a multiperson camp to heal myself and my pet. Along comes a band of Imperials. A few had some minor wounds. They sat down and let themselves heal. I thanked them for the Survival XP and away they went.

About 5 minutes later, as I was crafting some new traps, a band of 4 Overt Rebels came by. 2 of them dropped in the camp from bleeding wounds. I tried my best to save them both. (1 did end up dying though) I have some Medic skills and was healing them. I knew this would give me a TEF, but I was looking more at the Medical XP I was receiving. After I healed them all, they left and I disbanded my camp.

Off I go hunting more a cu pa's with Beak, my pet. As I completed farming the lair of the a cu pa's, I started to shoot the lair. Suddenly I get a message saying that I am having trouble seeing. I get knocked to the ground and incapped. I never saw the guy shooting me, he shot me in the back. I start looking around, trying to find the SOB that was shooting me. I find him, he walks up along side of me. It was one of the same Imperial guys that stopped by my camp eariler. I send him a /tell asking why he attacked me. He said that I would have attacked him, since he goes LD a lot. I told him I was not a PvP'er and that I may have had a TEF. He then DB'ed me.

Now I will duel a person if need be, I don't like being shot in the back when I'm not looking. Not a very gentlemanly way to fight. My question is, how can I tell if I have a TEF and how long does a TEF last?

I don't think there is currently any way to tell if you have a TEF other than asking someone. The last time I was out hunting rebel terrorists though, i thought that it lasted about 5 minutes. It would be nice to get a countdown timer or at leastsome place to check if you have one (character sheet perhaps?).

Wow, that really sux. I can't believe he didn't recognize you from the fact he sat in your camp all nice like and healed up. We need a way to kick people out of our camps I tell you. Like /kickfromgroup command, /kickfromcamp command.

I do not know about the TEF. But I agree the Devs should really put something in that tells you when you have a TEF. Or at the vary least a message that pops up when it goes away. I have only gotten one once, but I didn't last long enough to find out how long it lasted.
