I think I have identified a very simple way to make Bounty Hunting into a more viable profession with no real change to the game mechanics or game balance.

If you are interested in this possibility, please review and comment on this Features & Ideas Discussion post:

I have been discussing the idea with some CSM members who seem to like the simplicity and one of the recommended that I cross-post to this forum to get input from the community here.

+1. Maybe the locator will be used other than hunting supers.

+1. I really love it. I kind of wonder if it would be possible to have it sort pilots who are in the same region as you first, or if that would be too powerful / too much intel. Simplicity is probably best, and your suggestion is so simple and elegant, but would provide a whole new way to approach bounty hunting / killright hunting, beyond just sitting on a gate in Jita and blapping people as they come through.(Which I've never done because it sounds worse that 0.0 gate camps.)

Very similar to what was posted a few months back here, where additional tie-ins to skills etc are included.
