Thread: General Idea Thread: Letting Jedi group with their friends, and giving Smugglers something to do
- If you are grouped with a smuggler, people you are grouped with in range will not generate visibility for you. This could be any number of people, or better yet, base it on the smugglers level. Scale it to so many people the higher the smuggler is. This would represent the smuggler taking an active role in preventing gossip and tales of the Jedi from reaching the ears of those who might do the Jedi harm.
- While grouped with a smuggler who is in range, a Bounty Hunter's tracking droids would fail to find you, unless the Bounty Hunter has an equal or higher number of skill points invested in his profession as the smuggler. This represents the smuggler hiding you from the Empire, or just from Bounty Hunters in general.
I usually frown upon posts like these, and nothing ever seems to get done with them, but it just seems to cool to not post. It's in flavor with the game, and solves a few problems us Jedi have, as well as give Smuggler's something new and exciting to do. I don't think Bounty Hunter's would be opposed to this either, seeing as how there would be more Master Bounty Hunter's running around, which is cool. They deserve to track us.
Just thought I would throw this out there. I think this is a very nice idea, and something that wouldn't be to hard to impliment.

I like the idea, btw. It would encourage BHs to get more skill boxes then just Investigations. So far I think the only proffession that give you some bonus based on the number of boxes is CH (every boxes increase the max CL.) It would give an edge to "true" BH over "dabbllers", without making dabbling impossible.

So, I had a really cool idea today. This is my first "idea" post, but I just think it's too cool to pass up.
So, basically, Jedi complain about not being able to hunt with their friends. They also complain about Bounty Hunters who are not really Bounty Hunters (just dabblers) comming after them. This simple idea solves both problems, and gives Smugglers something cool to do as well.
They need to impliment a system where if you are grouped with a Smuggler who is in range, he can "protect/smuggle" you from harm. So, basically:

I don't mean to sound bitter, but asking for anything like that on this forum is akin to pissing in the wind.
However, if you start threads begging for this on the Jedi forum, there's a chance it may actually happen.
