Game Changes for Bounty Hunters???Follow

Profession: Bounty Hunter

NPC Bounty missions will now work properly. The Mark will be of appropriate difficulty based on the difficulty of the mission

Moved Player Bounty Hunting to the Master Bounty Hunter skill Box

Jedi missions are only created for online Jedi, the Jedi may go offline after the mission is created

Jedi missions display Faction instead of Jedi name

Jedi missions all display a payout of a random number between 45000 - 52000 credits on the terminal but may pay a bonus amount based on level and time since the Jedi was last killed

Go whine on the BH forums!

I'll just rate you down.
If someone disagrees with you that doesn't mean they shouldn't post here.

The change is so that you and your BH buddies can't keep getting a mission for the same jedi over and over.

Also moving player (jedi) missions to MBH will keep the dabblers out of the jedi hunting business.

So maybe it is easier for jedi but it seems like the entire galaxy is populated by BH and jedi. Maybe this will encourage people to try a different profession.

Just for the record, I am not a jedi nor will I ever be a jedi. I was going for MBH but got distracted by MCH. This was pre CU. I respeced to Commando due to them nerfing my pets.

One of the things I would like to see is Bounties on just players ranked Lvl 80 that are on active duty. This way you not just hunting jedi all day!

Hm, I have a different viewpoint. I see it that currently when a player reaches a certain point in his or her playing life time there the only way to open up new content is to become a jedi. It is simply the path which has yet to be walked. Meaning that if they introduced other options as highend proffessions where you had to choose either this or jedi. I am certain that atleast some portion of the player community would choose the other proffession instead of Jedi.

Unfortunatly Permadeath is not a viable option, atleast not if you look at it from SOE's point of view. Jedi is one of SWGs selling concepts, alot of those who start too play SWG do so to become Jedi. There is also alot of work going into a Jedi character, if that character dies from a character that only takes weeks too work up too, then SWG loose costumers. Unless ofcourse they make Jedi into the killing machines of the past. We all remember how that went now dont we? Atleast on my server the Jedi nearly killed all forms of PvP, since they ran around in gank-squads killing everyone (partly due to the FRS).

I think the sad part is that you won't see the melee BH's as much b/c they will have to waste some of their points on the other three branches of BH (43 extra points if I count correctly). That's three branches of an elite brawler tree, which substantially weakens a brawler's abilities. Instead, they get three trees of ranged special abilities. whoa.... great. guess those would be really useful for a brawler.

But, another viewpoint was brought up onthe SOE boards. After Pub 20, the slacker BH's who like to grief/pick on low level padawans and generally don't know how to hunt will respec again and the jedi will be left with the hard core BHs who know/love what they are doing. I'm still deciding if I'll go MBH, since I'm currently MP, MR, BH4000. I just love my guns :)

I still say it should be a real ***** for these paddys. Let them fear grinding jedi with all these bh's out there. Don't kill the BH templates just because there is an abundance of them. If the jedi population was controlled and slowed the BH population would drop. Finding enough bounties would be more difficult so many would leave BH prof and try something new. Jedi isn't supposed to be easy. It's for those with lots of patience and a mentality for a slow grind.
