The Hunting,Survival and Trapping tree's have ( hitting test tommorw ) been removed from bh prerequisite..
That leaves 81 skill points to dabble as they wish as a MBH or 126 for anyone just wanting invest 3..
Can you say population control................
Time to switch templates, lol...

I'm glad they finally got something done with their profession. Though, I can't help but think that the devs took the easy way out of "fixing" the BH. I'm sure many BH's would be content with having to master Scout and Marksman if only BH was worth it. The removal of the 3 Scout lines just seems like a way to patch it up. Although if they do end up fixing BH, those who are Master Bounty Hunters along with dabbling in TKA or Fencer are going to be very powerful indeed. But thats a long way down the road, a road which also has to get past the Combat Balance. Who knows what lies behind that. 
Anyways, don't want to seem negative. /cheer for the Bounty Hunters!

We, the BHs, are wrokign to move Jedi missions to MBH. We need some WORTH for MBH. We never asked for the scout lines to be removed. JustG is a damn fool. he has made BH less of a profession and more of an extra skillbox anyone can get, you can take all we have now.
That's not right and hopefully JustG will understand this and stop this madness.

I totally agree with you Larki, of course, I only think investigation was the only thing wrong with BH... making the profession cost less skill points is just an insane idea. Getting a bit extra melee and ranged defense at novice and master probably would have been a better way to go, eh?

Speak for yourself, not all BH.
The only tree in the Bounty Hunter profession that deals with tracking Jedi is the Invest tree.
Pistols, Carbines and the gimped LLC have nothing to do with being a Bounty Hunter.
Add in these 3 facts as of publish 9.
1. Jedi block 95% of ranged attacks.
2. There is a 5 second delay for switching weapons.
3. Jedi's weakness is melee attacks.
If your a MBH and need a "reason" to keep it, I would suggest you try to get specials and mods added to your master box.
An arguement could be made for moving the Jedi missions to invest 4.
But if a player decides to go MBH or BH 4/0/0/0 both have spent the same amount of time and skill on invest.
Skills in 3 ranged weapon classes with jedi ranged defenses and the delay timer is not effective.
Master TKA/ Fencer 4/0/0/0/ BH 3/0/0/0
If this is more effective than waiting 15 seconds to switch between 3 ranged weapons that wont hit, so be it.

**edit** r u talking about....you dont use those 3 lines anyway...tell me.. do you:
- Use traps on NPCs or marks?
- What bonus's do you recieve from hunting that benefits BH?
- Honestly how often do you use your camps?
OHOHOHOH ME! I can answer these!
- NO!
- None!
- Rarely, considering we have full time buffs now
Plus side:
You've beening crying we dont get enough SP like commandos are left w/ and your profession is broken...
You can specialize in a specific weapon type or get some melee skills now and still master BH..
Scratched off 3 lines you dont use in BH profession, and if you used them and like them so much, you have 81 sp left...USE THEM!!!
The devs are trying to help you guys, theyve obviously analyzed the scenario or wouldnt have done a move like this, and see its in the best interest, and for the most part the BH community likes it except for the few sour patches...
Our collective hearts weep..

I still think there should be some sort of permadeath on jedi if your going to let any one do it that way the MBH is worth something. There needs to be population control.
