Swtor Timeline Bounty Hunter Revealed/Blog

Star Wars: The Old Republic is set during a unique time period in the galaxy's history. Decades of war concluded with the Sith Empire sacking the Republic's capital planet, Coruscant, and forcing Republic Senators and the Jedi Council to agree to a painful peace treaty.

In the years following the treaty, the Jedi Council tasked Master Gnost-Dural, Keeper of the Jedi Archives, with re-examining the galaxy's history in light of recent events. In his insightful reports, Master Gnost-Dural established a new galactic timeline that became an educational reference for years to come... the very same years in which Star Wars: The Old Republic takes place.

In his first entry, Master Gnost-Dural recounts the events immediately prior to the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant - the turning point in the Republic's recent history.

We are proud to announce the first playable character class revealed in Star Wars: The Old Republic, the Bounty Hunter.

An infamous mercenary of the Star Wars universe, the Bounty Hunter's journey is ruthless yet rewarding. Deadly missions and assassinations are just part of the dangerous tasks involved in choosing the Bounty Hunter career path. With missiles and flamethrowers at arm's reach, the Bounty Hunter uses the latest in advanced armor and weapon technology to carry out these assignments gaining not only money, but notoriety as a reward.

Boba Fett, Dengar, Zuckuss, IG-88, Bossk, 4-LOM. This was the lineup that started it all. Darth Vader wanted something done and his own people weren't up to the task. So he called in specialists. Seeing this motley group of outlandish characters on the bridge rankled Vader's officers and told us these guys were the real deal. When Vader felt it necessary to specifically look at Boba Fett when he mentioned he didn't want anyone disintegrated, we understood this was a man with a reputation. When Boba Fett objected to Han Solo being frozen on the grounds that the Bounty Hunter needed Solo alive, Vader didn’t intimidate Fett as he did poor Lando or choke him senseless. He listened and reassured him in a businesslike manner. He was talking to a professional whose work he respected.

Guild Information

Guild Information: Some new updates have been brought to the Website. If you have not visited within 10 days, please do so "So we know you are still active".

With the game getting ever slow close, we all get excited, and things start to heat up. When the game comes into launch, I will do my best to make sure everything is taken care of. Making sure everyone is doing a good job, and such. I really want to have a great reputation with this guild. I know most of the republic guild leaders, and I Don't want to set a bad example. This is a respectful guild, and if there are any problems please tell me or one of the higher ups, so we can solve this with no problems.

Ventrilo: will be used, so I expect everyone to have Ventrilo Installed on there computer come time to launch. You dont even have to have a microphone, but I will be happy enough as long as you are able to hear us. Doing dungeons, and PvP is so much easier when people are in Vent. If you have a microphone, Great even better. We will have a lot of fun on ventrilo talking, and joking around so you can all be sure of that. I will set up a Ventrilo tutorial for all new users. Ventrilo is definatly a must though, it is one of our biggest advantages in the game.

Leaders!: I know alot of you right now just know Kae and myself as the Guild Leaders. Kae is my second in command and I expect you to show her as much respect as you all show me. I will be picking different leaders for different jobs, as you can tell by the titles on the forums. When given this Leadership spot, you need to remember and understand. This is a privlage and can be taken away, given the oppertunity means I hold you in great trust, and believe you to be responsible, and mature. Each Leader will have different duties, which you will learn if you are choosen. Once people get choosen, and things start to get settled in, I believe all will be easier and smoother!

Inactivity: Please everyone read this carefully. I know everyone is busy, I am also. But, if you are going to be gone for a few days, please put a thread as to why, and what days you will be gone. It is pretty simple and takes just a few mins to fill out, it will make it alot easier for the leaders. Remember, you can be demoted if you do not follow some of these easy directions. It does not mean you can't make the rank back fast or easy. But, we are all mature, so don't throw a fit please.

Guild Ranks: Looking at alot of the rank's you will see plenty of things to be doing. Each rank will put you into a different part of the guild. Such as gathers, crafters, pvpers, pvers, etc. Yes, you can be in multiple groups. What this will do, is make sure we can have everything we need in the guild. For instance, Kae is a crafter, and I am a pvper. Well I would ask Kae if she could help me out with maybe some weapons, if I helped gather some of the mats "Materials". Well, Kae says, I need some help on this quest, or need some of these Materials for something I am making. Well to help one another out, do something for each other, to get what you are both working for. It will get everyone better, and have more fun. I WANT us to be one of the best, not only the best, but the most respectful Guild on the server. I don't want us to be a bunch of douchebag's like alot of the Strongest guilds in most games. I want to show everyone, we are the best, but we are not gonna throw it in there face's. Rank's are earned, not given to people who ask for them.


Guild Website: I keep working on the website as much as I can right now. I am learning new things everyday about it. I am trying to get some different companies to sort of help us with some of the money, such as paying for storage, our domain name, ventrilo, and more. Once we get a good amount of members coming here, and companies see that, we are sure to get some people signing on board with us. Website colors, I know have probably been going all over there place, just trying to find colors that will show up everything, and keep our rank colors ok. Remember you can always put ur suggestions in, under the Website Idea's thread!

Recruiting: Big thing here guys so listen up. We are slowing getting new members everyday, once Launch gets closer, we need to start bringing people into us. Showing that we are a great guild, and wont let them down. But we need to keep the Recruiting threads up on swtor.com, MMORPG.com, CGE Network.com, kotormmo.net . I have recruiting set up everywhere! If you see the page is back a little bit, say a few words to bump it back to the front. Show some inspiring words for the Guild! People love to see activity in a guild, one of the best and biggest thing people look for. Second would be maturity, respectfulness, helpfullness, and more! We need to show them this to get there attention. Someone is looking for a guild, great tell them well im in a great guild. We have a website, cool leaders, great active helpfull members, Ventrilo, and more! There is tons of possiblities.

Classes/Races: When you are choosing your classes, I want you to find which character you want, and will be the best at. I don't care if everyone wants to be a Jedi, or a bounty hunter or whatever. Just remember, if you have alternate characters, please don't add them to the Guild. If it is going to be your new main character, great add them and we will take your other character out. I want everyone to have 1 character in the Guild. If you really want, we can start our Alt guild, and bring in the lower levels later on in the game, to raise them up till they get a certain level. That is great, but we need to make sure no alternate characters in the guild. We want more bodies online!
Races: I do not really know if it matters about what Race you choose. They might have extra bonuses or not. Choose whatever Race you want, I mean be creative and have some fun. there will be alot of Humans, so depending on how they look.. I might be a Kel dor. So lets try and have a wide variety of races for fun, and to experiment with.


Class Leaders: If you are choosen to be a Class Leader, you need to be the Ideal person, and have great knowledge of your class. Being the Class Leader, you need to help people with knowing skills, templates, quests, everything! about your class. I know it seems like alot of work, but It will help the members out, as well as yourself. You will not always know everything about the class, and someone might point out something new to you. Crafter Class Leader. We will be making a Forum special for you. To have a member Wish list Item thread. Doing this, members will ask for an item to be crafted, either you, or one of your crafters, will take the mission to finish the item. If its bad, tell the player that, and see if they would like to try again. REMEMBER! Things do not come free, so try and donate materials. I will be holding the Banks for Materials, and Items. Either I will have multiple characters for different Items, or in a Guild Bank "HOPEFULLY".

I hope all of you have enjoyed this Newletter, and learned alot of how this great guild will be running! I hope it excited alot of you.
