Well, if Teras Kasi were only for when Jedi got out of hand, how about they can only get TEFs on say, a Jedi who had killed more than 5 people in the last hour or so? It wouldn't be fair for a Teras Kasi Master to walk all over a Jedi Padawan who hadn't done anything.







Good Point. Like the swine DJK's that attack the new player rebels in Anchorhead all of the time. This, combined with the saberthrow nerf and forcerun nerf. Oh what a glorious day that would be.

Oh good god. Don't blame the sudden surplus of Jedi roaming around on Bounty Hunters. The fact that they are all around Coronet with their lightsabers out is because they don't have to worry about a TEF anymore. Bounty Hunters are trying their hardest suppressing the Jedi populace. However, with Jedi groupies, high LS blocking and force run it is difficult to sustain their numbers as being "low".

Let tkm kill jedi that are overt ONLY OVERT. This means any reguardless of what faction they are.This would help keep jedi population in check





Ithought about this, but it would prevent a rebel or nuetral TKA from killing a rebel overt jedi. Likewise for a imperial or neutral TKA, would not be able to harm a imperial jedi. (Notice how, in this case, nuetral does not provide an access for "Everyone")

if you brought back the simple tefs for jedi when they use a saber THAT would keep them in check... no more jedi running around in towns showing off because you would have people just waiting to kill them.





I agree, I would very much like to see the return of saber TEFs, however I seriously doubt that the current jedi community, as well as the devs will let this idea fly. As far as the devs are concerned, they were removed for a reason, and will more than likely remain so until the combat reballance.

Your absolutely correct, bounty hunters cannot control jedi on there own. Infact, they were intended to, but its really not a bounty hunters job. They hunt bounties, they have no interest in killing all bad jedi.




I tried to suggest a system that ballanced best with the bounty hunters system, that was easy to program, short of making an entire "Teras Kasi Order". If someone has a suggestion, by all means, don't hold it back.


Currently my idea's still remain at:


--While meditating, new ability allows to scan all jedi in a close radius.


--Those jedi scanned in this method, whos Visibility is high (Visiblity, for those of you who do not know, is generated from using the force around players, some people also suggest from killing NPC's, however this isn't confirmed), will instantly "TEFed" to the Teras Kasi. The TEF would be a variable time, based on how high his visilibity actually is.

I don't recall seeing anything by any dev nor on any official website nor in any manual about TKA being able to have any bounties or anything about hunting Jedi in this game. If you want to hunt Jedi, get BH 3xxx. That's the way you can do it.

I agree with Antares, Teras Kasi were NOT MEANT TO HUNT JEDI!!!! If you carefully read the story of Teras kasi, the "order" was formed simply to make sure that rogue Jedi did not wipe out their entire culture, way of life, and Order as had happened in events prior to the creation of Teras kasi.. We did not actively hunt down and kill Jedi. We only maintained a level ofawareness about them. As they did us. There is an peace between the two Orders as both are thought of as "cultish" and "strange" by the non Force wielding public. What many of you imply is that there is some type of war between the two orders. There is not.

No, the members of the Teras Kasi were not hunters, per se. However, they did monitor the actions of the Jedi and take action when they felt that justice needed to be dealt out. In a way, they considered themselves part of system that provided checks-and-balance with the Jedi.


At any rate, I don't like your idea. It somehow implies that a TKA could "sense" Jedi, and I do not have the impression that this is something they could do.


I don't like the idea of teaming up with bounty hunters. It doesn't fit the role of a TKA. From everything I have read, they live a private life and minimize their interactions with others. They live in the shadows, watching Jedi, monitoring their actions, and taking action when necessary.


I propose that a master TKA havethe ability to read bounty hunter terminals--limited strictly to Jedi. I seriously doubt that TKA had visions of Jedi doing wrong while they meditated, rather they probably had their own information networks. Thus, this type of modification to the profession is well within reason.


If you don't like that, then I propose that a master TKA automatically be given consent to attack a Jedi that he has seen use the Force or his/her lightsaber. Doesn't work both ways though, as I am sure that a TKA would have had enough sense to not let his intentions be known to a Jedi he/she were observing.

This isn't a bad idea, however i'd like to see a different system installed than that. We already have terminals, i'd like to see something new, wouldn't you?
