Need BH mission help, i keep getting charged?

SirOmegaSirOmega Member Posts: 25

Hello all, well i am a veteran Rifleman/CH that recently returned on trial after a bit over 3 years gone and made a BH, heres my dilemma:

 

I keep failing missions?! Well not fail per se, but instead of the 4-5K bounty i am supposed to be collecting i actually get charged??!! I am supposed to give the target a message like " You have escaped for the last time" etc, but once i get there to the target location, i walk up to the target and there is no interaction option? just the red reticle.

 

How do i deliver the message to target before i kill them? i have tried to /tell the target, but it tells me no player with that name is online, i have tried to just /say you have escaped for the last time. but nothing seems to work.

 

Can someone please give me some advice on how to do these properly? Thank you much.

    I don't believe there is a converse option with BH marks, you just kill them :)  However, you could try radial them by using the ~ key while holding the mouse on them to see if they have a converse option.  Failing that, just kill the NPC and that should complete it.

    There is no converse option for NPC bounties, the text in the mission description is just backstory. You do just kill them and loot them. It has been that way since the game launched.

    rofl...SOE "quality assurance" strikes again.

    To the OP: open a support ticket and hope you get the one GM left that speaks English and doesn't start their day with a bong hit.

    There were, long ago, some of the old quests that required you to converse with the target, but these were general quests, not BH missions.  They were particularly prone to bugs and required non-obvious solutions to resolve, like starting a conversation with them from 65m away our some other distance outside of aggro range.  It was all very clunking and typical of broken early SWG.

    Now you get to experience NGE broken SWG.

    Whether or not you actually follow the instructions of the client (inform the target before termination that "Greedo sent me to put you out of his misery forever" etc...) SHOULD be irrelevant, you should just kill the mark and collect the bounty.  On the old Jedi bouties there were bonuses above and beyond the stated at mission payout.

    But even when my BH failed to kill off a mark for some reason, I never got penalized in the bank account for doing so, although it would have been cool to have a bounty put on YOU for failure to kill off the mark.  It appears to me that you've encountered a bug specific to you, and yeah, attempt to get CS to do something about it, but you'll have to be persistent and not take a canned response for an answer...at SOE CS you must be a very annoying squeaky wheel to get any grease.

    CH, Jedi, Commando, Smuggler, BH, Scout, Doctor, Chef, BE...yeah, lots of SWG time invested.

    lol, you have never had to converse with BH targets, it's always just been script dialog.

    i never had many of these missions well actualy only one cause I respected to BH from MCM just after the CU hit and then only had to do 10 levels.  I had one where I had to give them a little mark i just dragged it out of my inventory and gave it to him.   I haven't seen any other BH type missions (am i missing something ? again? lol )

    I only do the terminal missions now for players or NPC's they tell me to track someone and kill them and that's it.  

    there was a quest I had in my inventory but it only worked once and they guy told me to give an item to the target before I killed him.  I just dragged it out of my inventory and over top of him and he took it.   Then I shot him..  and he died and I got money :)

    the end :)

    My favorite NPC's you had to speak to were those guys from the Emperor's Retreat. Lol they would agro and then they would hit me once and my autoattack would kill them instantly and I would have to restart. Thank god for /converse... Then of course in their wisdom they "fixed" that. a friend of mine had to unequip his weapon and run up and down from this pissant npc trying to converse the entire time!

     

    As far as BH bounty goes, sadly no witty conversation, just kill them as soon as they appear.

     

    Out of curiosity, what level did you convert to from mbh/riflemen to BH in the NGE?
