Proposal
Choice of multiple locations to extract from the Flashpoint to.
Justification
Its just a bit shit being in a healing loop before you can start fighting with the only place to extract to. At least if there is 3 locations and they guess right they had to actually gamble or think.
Motivation
Yes, I just got butt hurt (again) leaving a flashpoint, but im not angry haha, Just seems daft its that easy for them.
When you get picked up from a Flashpoint exiting you are always taken back to Mos Eisley. The nature of PvP means you will get a bounty on you. Its kinda shit loading in and instantly getting sniped by someone waiting and not even being able to fight.

Flashpoints are not the only place Jedi can earn force PVP. The reason BH are camping that spot is because they know Jedi love hiding there. If you want to throw BH off, switch it up. Grind in a spot where you can see them coming.

I wasn't aware that non jedi could get a bounty put on them on this CU server. Is it from participating in the Restuss zone or just any PVP anywhere? I'm genuinly curious.

Gotcha. So they are basically using the bounty system from the NGE in conjunction with the old Jedi vis/bounty system for this CU server. Thanks for the clarification.

I agree that killing someone while they are spawning is weak. This was a similar problem back in the NGE when BHs would camp the cloner on Restuss. I think a better solution would just be to not allow the mark to be attackable after spawning until they can move.
 
My BH experience :

- I cannot attack anyone while they are loading. It is prevented.
- Smart targets avoid Mos Eisley if they do not want to take risks, they do not talk to the NPC to jump back there, they ITV or reach the nearest starport. (Meanwhile, they remain flagged next to their flashpoint group in case they need infinite heals)
- It takes 1 second to respawn (or to get rez'd by the BH) (IF the target does not win), the target does not lose anything, it takes 30 minutes for the flashpoint to end. (And usually to realize the target ITV'd back to a private structure/logged out)
- For those having "Concussion shot", they can generally and peacefully run away if they press the key.
- Happened to me, felt excited to fight, at least I was warmed up and had all my buffs ready.
 
I'm a fan of giving 2 options per faction. Eisley or Rebel Outpost on Rori for Rebels and Eisley or Imperial Outpost on Talus for Imperials. Makes sense to go back to a factional aligned area as an option as well.
 
...nobody is forced to take the recruiter to leave an FP. If you don't want to accept the public transport option hop on a speeder and take your own route
 
I am 100% against this. The current state of BHing is that people take part in a FP, which lasts 30 minutes. Then they b-line for the ship terminal and 1) head to space, 2) head to a safe house or 3) log off. This leaves the BH with very little options to actually fight their target.

You are not forced to take the transport, doing it is taking a chance. The BH is the one with very few options to actually engage a target.
 
The only thing that really speaks for it right now are the crashes, which have been happening a bit more often since the last update. And when it happens, it’s during the 'load in' :). Luckily, I’ve survived the Mos Eisley approach so far, and you know the risks when you take the lazy way home anyway. So yeah, either you drive to the next Star - or Shuttleport or you live with the risk.
