BH getting breach charge when Jedi are to visible to travel

twan · Mar 7, 2025

BH currently hey a breach charge when a Jedi is over 4K visibility. Currently not many breach charges out there due to Jedi hiding in house and being able to lower visibility.

Yes to this!!!!

BH should get a charge for every bounty on the board.

There are a few improvements to the Bounty System I would like seen. Making breaching charges usable in more situations than just the highest visible Jedi is definitely on my list

I like the idea, although perhaps when a Jedi gets first listed on the BH boards, it might be a little low balled. Perhaps it be better on the next tier when they are also having to worry about inquisitors could be more of a compromise and feel a little more likely?

As in this Jedi mark is proving difficult to eliminate even to our bounty hunters, lets step up the pressure.

Does an old school BH good to see such a proposal!

This is how it currently is in the system. BH get breach charge at 4K vis when the inquisitor ls come for the Jedi. The purpose of this is to align more of what makes sense . It’s easy right now for a Jedi with vis to sit in a house safe. When a Jedi loses the ability to travel or anything is when they show up on the boards as well at 3k. It makes more sense for breach charge to be at this level. This makes the Jedi think more of where to be. This honestly doesn’t change things much but just enough to where a Jedi has to think where to be. They can just as easily go to the ranch where BH are off limits.

sorry I wrongly believed it was at Vader level, god knows why.

I would consider it a good change if the Jedi didn't travel to the ranch from in front of the Ticket Terminal. It's quite noticeable since there's only one Jedi traveling in front of it. Let's move it to the Droid or Starship terminal menu.

I am not sure this would actually fix anything aside from reducing QoL, you do realise that you can travel to the ranch from any ticket terminal including shuttles in player and npc cities?

twan · Mar 16, 2025

Also in this instance of proposal you would not be able to travel via ticket terminal. You would have to drive there. Again making it more of a hassle for the Jedi as this is the point where it says you are to visible to travel etc..

Only if hunting Jedi gets moved back to master BH

What’s the reasoning for that ? Again, moving the bear h charge to 3k vis aligns with the limitations of the Jedi . The only difference is they now have to drive to the ranch to be safe instead of their house. Again, minor tweak with little impact.

There isn't a need to change this at all, hell you don't even see charges used against Jedi in any movies, tv series or books. Odd how no one knew where obi-wan was when je definitely was a high priority target that was seen on Tant several times after ep 3. Jedi lived amongst people and used powers for years before being hunted down yet BH want to access Jedi easier. Why isn't there ways to hide yourself when on the terminals. Since BH are all about realism then give Jedi the means to hide themselves. We have seen Jedi hide their force sensitivity.. Or add escape routes to houses. Every time Jedi have been hunted in movies they had more then one way to get iut of their house and escape BH. Its really odd how The droids can locate a Jedi on a different planet, yet you never see this in the movies. Its not like the Emperor didn't have all the Jedi archive and biological signatures of the jedi yet you didnt see hundreds of droids go out to find all the signatures to get them. The droids are too accurate. Surely droids could have hunted Yoda since they can find people on Dath no problem. If you want chargws on all levels of bounties then make droids a lot less accurate. I have hunted as a BH npcs and they can give false signals, why can't players have these options as well.

Well, first off this is a game. Not the movies or realism being asked. The ask is having the charges added to where it makes sense. Logically when a Jedi gets in to visible to travel or do anything makes the most sense for the charges to be available. Also, Jedi do have the ability to hide at the ranch. This change is very minor and affects very little. Just makes the Jedi play slightly more cautious on where they log out. And if you want to use your yoda example. Well the ranch is like dagobah where he hide since it was filled with the dark side of the force. It masked his force from being g detected. The ranch does the same thing when you’re at the ranch you can not be on the boards or detected .

Twan and I hate using making this a us verse then conversation. Let's only briefly touch on vis. You commented about it's not about realism yet every vis conversation talks about how this this time in Star Wars Jedi are hunted that's why vis is high. That is exactly what people responding are saying about realism. You can have it just one way.

It's either about realism or not otherwise it just becomes a BH suggestion to make Jedi even easier to hunt. If that is the case then you need to give BH real consequences for failing a mission, and BH would be red to each other to get that bounty. Since the game essentially puts in the bounty hunter guild if you want to go down this path failing a mission should strip you of the ability to take any kind of high priority bounty for ex amount of time until that guild can trust you again which means a underworld type of system would need to be in place. See how fast this ends up spiralling out of control.

It's not about trying to protect Jedi, it's about people wanting realism until it's goes against them as an excuse to hunt Jedi. Do please don't respond with an attack since trying to look at both sides. If the guild was sending a BH after a Padawan they aren't wasting resources of breaching charges. Now on someone or high priority like Obi Wan very much so. Someone like the kid in Obi Wan that was killed not so much.

The black and white thinking of you can only have it one way is 100% incorrect. I do not care either way if they change it or not but your comment about obi-wan and people not knowing is the point. (fyi - vis system is meant to keep jedi in hiding and works pretty well) You have to know that a Jedi is even alive and been seen somewhere to (higher vis) so you can even know to send the probe droids. Yoda was hiding in a swamp all alone and obiwan was hiding on Tat and acted like an old hermit. Once he lit up that saber in the cantina however now people knew where to look. Also bounty hunter guild? You make an assumption here that all or even most would belong to some universe wide BH guild, which is wrong. BH are already handicapped trying to hunt Jedi and failing the mission means losing all that time and effort along with whatever droids and food and drink etc you used up. Oh and just to play along if the guild sent out a BH after a Jedi they would absolutely make sure they were geared up for success including the charges. To not do so would be a waste of time, effort and creds not to mention the BH would not appreciate it.

I will say that I don't see changing it to be a positive thing because it takes away the progressive penalty piece. You get on the boards at 3k and progress to breaching at 4k. It seems fine as it is.

I have to disagree in part here. It is a major tweak with a large impact because it would mean that you have basically eliminated all safe houses except The Ranch with this change as well as getting rid of the progressive penalty aspect. There are safe houses set up and maintained for just this by different groups.
