Master Bounty hunter...worth it?Follow

#27 Jan 13 2004 at 3:28 PM Rating: Decent
Ok now after all i've read about BH i'm hesitating about the path I've chosen. I know I'm going BH just because I think they will eventually change it to make them tougher. I guess I need to forget about doing field base kits as well and maybe pick up some tka skills, although my holocron said pikeman. I'll probably drop novice pistoleer and novice rifleman as well to free up those skills points. Any more advice for this die hard hell bent BH would be appreciated, also bear in mind my rl bro is a master commando so I don't want to do the same things as he is, tka master and some medic skills along with commando.

p.s. Most of the info is based on individual combat which is cool only I usually go do things in groups of 3 at least no more than 6 so I'm still hesitant about loosing my camp making skills being so close to field base kit and all.

Thanks for all the great info guys! I am still going for master though, I just dont see my char any other way. Invest is not to bad to get, each mission is currently paying about 350 exp. And going to worlds that I would never step foot on is kind of fun. Yes it takes a lot of time and sometimes the missions are bugged and your mark is not at the waypoint. I have gotten around this with tracking (I have tracking 4) or just send out another probe droid and most of the time you will get a better waypoint. The carbine shots rock. LLC is great. Pistols....well my hair dryer of death (as a fellow PA BH calls it) is a pain to get in large groups, looks like i am going to have to solo this one up. I am currently Invst 2, Carbines 4, LLC 3, Pistol 2 I still have a long way to go but so far it has been a blast. Any master BH's want to comment on the skills you get at master? scatter shot, rappid fire. And just for the record I am not in it for the title, I have never used titles on my char nor will I ever. I just dont think that is roleplaying. Anyways, thanks all for the great info good or bad.

in my opinion bh is nerfed like a motha and will be fixed soon but personallyi like commandos much better because of flamethrower and acidrifle you can pelt them with acid for a second and when they get close switch to flamethrower and kite them. well thats my bit

ok we all know flamethrower is a bad *** and a dot to boot. However, Commando's are always going to be on the front line. The way I figure an expert bh and a couple of commando's or tk combo and you have a shot at jedi's. bh's are still the only ones that can track jedi's right?

Either way I'm betting they're going to nerf bh's eventually to make them stronger. I've been around mmorpgs since way back in the age of empires days and one thing I know is that dev's are always trying to balance games to make them more fair...the strange irony is that their efforts always have some small flaw that causes the nerf to have much farther implications then they thought.

Yea but the distance sucks for Commandos. A healthy dose of, confusion shot,knockdown fire, torso shot and then finish it up with the LLC and most of your problems are done. If there is comp armor involved use a Tangle pistol for stun dmg.

Let me begin saying it's been awhile since I've been a Master Bounty Hunter... I've yet to give it up.

It is, without a doubt the third best PvP profession with TKA & Combat Medic being better.

For those of you who don't know how to use the Master BH's moves, SHAME ON YOU!!! I carry 15 weapons in my inventory, several for PvP only. Invest in some of the rarer types of damage types. Get a tangle pistol for instance. Stun ratings are almost NIL on most armor and a high uber pvp helmet will be swiss cheese by the time you are done spamming eye shot on the poor *******.

But don't stop there. A good EE3 carbine will do wonders -- Spray Shot -- makes your opponent blind, dizzy & stunned -- then slam 'em with the fire knockdown and watch your opponent not stand up. Switch over to your LLC and lightning single 2 all over him.

To be a powerful Master Bounty Hunter you have to Master the shots first. This is a profession where you can exploit your opponents worst stat pool and shove it down his throat. Enjoy it, you've earned it.
