I have a question though Luiss. I think it is completely idiotic that a person can bounty a hunter that has never even swung at them. However I really don't think it would be cool if a bounty hunter was open to the 'bounty every attack' rule either, ya know?

 

What was your thought on how the bountied vs hunter situation should work, as in how to replace the current borked system?

Simply allow the acceptance of one bounty on a player at a time, until *said* bounty is completed.  Accepting a bounty, the intention is there, just like with a deflected hit, so I've no issue with it being bountyable.

 

My two cents~

My only problem with that is people accepting 10 bounties on the same person to just get bountied back (for de-level porpouses), and don't doing any hit, that's the only problem I can see.

The other problem (free medals) will be solved when we get the gxp/delevel thing solved.

Other than the fact players wont need to delevel extensively with the impending change from hoof, I have voted yes to both.

 

I dont think you should be able to place a bounty on someone until they actually hit you.

I thought the same at first but Maeh's idea is actually quite clever. If people have to finish a bounty before they can accept another on the same person, then they can't do that.

 

They can still trade no hit bounties, though, just one at a time.

Something close happened to me today.
A guy lvl 250ish accepted a bounty on me (lvl 724), when I saw I changed my epic gear (was already buffed) and he was not able to hit me safely anymore, so he don't hit me once, and a friend cleared me.

As Maeh said, the intention was there, so I should be able to bounty him if I want to (of course I'll not do that on this ocassion), so after I read and think more I decided to agree with Maeh's opinion.

Accepting a bounty without hitting should be bountiable, but you need to wait someone else to finish that bounty before accept another on the same person.

Without EOCers on BB wishing to delevel that makes more sense now.

i want to be able to bounty anyone who accepts my bounties. I seem to recall this issue i coming full circle as the people who wanted this idea changed in the first place now want it changed back. You wanted to be able to bounty those who accepted bounties without swinging and i was in agreement with this as I grew tired of idiots accepting just to try to get a reaction from me, in terms of gear changing and buffing up. I do not want to see this concept reversed at all, just because something you wanted changed in the first place now does not work for you, you cannot now want it changed back just to suit each situation. You wanted this change I think your going to have to deal with it and the consequences that have come with it.

 

I do think you should only be able to accept one bounty on one person at a time though, I always thought that was the case anyway??

It doesn't matter to me if the bounty can be placed when you accept it, or when you swing.  I just think the first bounty needs to be cleared before you can accept another bounty on the same person.
