Bounty Hunter

Bounty Hunter Commando Entertainer Jedi Medic Officer Smuggler Spy Trader Roster Master Expertise New Game Enhancements Bounty Hunters chase the worst foes in the Galaxy. You will learn to use whatever dirty tricks you must to bring your prey down. When someone needs an enemy taken care of, they hire Bounty Hunters to do their dirty work. Tracking down & eliminating people are what Bounty Hunters do best. As a Bounty Hunter, you must learn the tricks of ambush & assault so your prey does not escape. Skills Ranged Combat Bounty Hunting Melee Combat Capture Techniques Bounty Hunters specialize in “problem solving.” If a person is having a problem with someone else, they call on the BH to fix it for them. As a hit man, you won’t have a lot of subtlety or finesse to your attacks, but you’ll still manage to get the job done. After completing several assignments, you’ll be tasked with more difficult targets to take down & your reputation will increase. Each assignment completed brings you closer to becoming known throughout the galaxy as a prestigious Bounty Hunter! Once you’ve finished the tutorial, it’s a good idea to spend a bit of time exploring Tansarii Point Station & helping the people there with various quests. You’ll earn both experience & credits to get yourself started. You can also learn piloting skills while you’re here. For grouping experience, Gamma Station is a dungeon designed for Levels 1-10 that’s only a short space hop away from Tansarii Point Station.
