Hey guys i just hit Master last night and now am going to be getting ready to hunt Jedi, I had a big question i would like to know about.

Before general chat was removed from the game and while i was leveling BH i saw a few people talking about jedi's just sitting in their houses and telling people to use bomb droids to get them? Is this allowed or is this an cheating?

Also i heard a few people talking in general about traps and something about there was a bug that u can some how exploit the traps?

I am just asking this because i do not want to do anything that will get my account suspended or banned i love the game and don't want to do anything like that.

If you are unable to enter a residence to attack a player then a droid should not be able to as well. Just because you can do something does not mean you should. 99% of the time if someone has to question doing something for fear it may be an exploit, it usually is.

Thank you for asking before doing. We appreciate it!

On a similar topic but within the same vein.
Can we have a definitive answer on if it is considered an exploit for a pair of Jedi to "double kill" a Jedi.
For instance; if a baby Jedi were to be chased by 2 BH, then just say in a friendly way, just say, "kill me dude! So I can take the hit and get back to the grind", then jump into combat take the death. Then after being offered a heal from one of the BH's rez on the spot, only to be killed by the second BH and lose double the xp (plus the cloning penalty) as the 2 players guffaw and point then bugger off elsewhere.??

Is this a game mechanic or just playing in character? if it is, then fair enough and we shall adapt our gameplay to compensate. If it is not, then why does this continue unchallenged? and Jedi are just told.... suck it up...its tough around here?

That's a known bug that can happen from time to time. My advice is to not rez in front of the class that is explicitly incentivized to kill you. You're really inviting temptation on the BH's part if that bug happens to occur.

It is a known issue. We have done some testing in effort to problem solve a bit. Not the easiest issue to nail down a cause.

I would recommend you submit a ticket and include as much info as possible (when this happens). Screenshots, time stamps, toons involved, faction status of all toons involved etc.
