OK so this is either going to be a really liked or really hated idea but I have nothing to lose since im going on a 2 week LoA in 2 days so here goes:
Make the bounty hunter job more like old western bounty hunters.
We already have 1 part of this in game with the western hitman style bounty board but hear me out
Boba fett. Iconic. Most easily recognized bounty hunter in Star Wars.
Y'know who was the inspiration for our boy Boba?
Blondie. Blondie the old western bounty hunter from TGTBATU.
What if we made Bounty Hunter kits modeled like that?
Currently, bounty hunters have a long range low ammo sniper rifle and wrist rockets. That's all fine and good.
But they also have a high damage high ammo Relby and a DH17. Both are high damage output and high ammo capacity weapons.
The bounty hunter kit is better for fighting crowds of people than it is taking out single targets.
An old west style bounty hunter kit could include stuff like: A long range low ammo rifle (Check) A utility (Wrist Rockets) and a high damage low range low ammo weapon like a 6-shooter. With a kit like that, it would make a lot more RP sense for a bounty hunter. They could snipe or hammer fan a target down with their high damage weapon and use their wrist rockets to yeet themselves outta there like an actual bounty hunter might
With a cowboy kit, bounty hunters could focus less on killing a crowd of people that are padding their target and instead only kill those who they need to to get to the target and leave quickly and silently. Bounty hunters were silent killers not frontline combatants
TLDR:
Bounty hunter kit is currently optimized for fighting crowds, not single targets.
Cowboys are cool.
Cowboys have good weapons for killing bounties but not fighting and killing large crowds.
Cowboy build encourages stealth, speed, accuracy, smarts, and map knowledge.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk, let me know what you think. If you hate it, let me know so I might repent of my sins.
