Well...yeah...I shoulda mentioned that I did the Dath/Armor/Buff thing with Tristyn...


With Drev, it was no armor, no buffs, and killing mid level creatures on Corellia. Took a heck of alot longer the first time around...

hey everyone,


I tried to look for an answer to this but i couldnt. I have unlocked 2 branchs and have filled none. i was thinking about going commando 4000 how many nades (thermal) would it take to cap combat exp? i am not rich but each crate costs about 110k on my server if its to many crates il need then i will go back to swordsman and tka.

Wow, umm........1 crate might get you 150-200K combat experience if you hit with max damage almost everytime. Also, you will spend more money on the armor that the grenades will gradually eat away at. I started the Commando Nades grind, and let me tell you if you are patient and have the money, go for it. I had one of the two, and it definatley wasn't the patience. I can't tell you which way to go, but if you can only afford 1 crate a day then, do the two combat profs. You can get 160K FS exp guarenteed if you can cap out your Combat, andwith 2 combat profs it would be no prob. I had to and currently am still, redoing my template for Master Brawler, Master Fencer, and TKM. I know the grind will be a little slower then grenades, but if you think about it you have 3 weeks to fill in between each phase, and by either method, you can fill your branch before the next phase.

Well IMO it would be better to grind with swords/TKA. Assuming you can cap both in a buff session you will be bringing in 120k FS per session. Which roughly equates to right around 10 days per tree at one session a day. Not to mention you will only go through possible 2 suits of armor for all the branches opposed to 2 sets per branch.

Man those were the days. I remember runningmissions atAnchorheadon foot with a group that always included a medic, and entertainer and a scout as a must. Usually the rifleman would be the farthest one out from the target shooting and telling the medic who to healnext. Man that was always a blast. Smugglers would visit there regularly but it was before clamps so getting the containers sliced were always a risk, and forget about weapons or armor...just too expensive for a new guy like me.


Man that was fun.

Yeah, before a lot of the hologrinding, and all the buff-dependancy, and uber armor that got up to around 90% preslice.

Please, I mastered Bounty Hunter before creature mounts, vehicles, or even player cities. It really sucked taking me 5 hours to find my target on the ass end of Lok just to get there and not be able to attack him. God those were the days... actually.. those days kinda sucked, really.

well the main reason i wanted to do it was because im behind in filling up my branchs and i want to get up them all full so i start each phase filling up a new branch instead of having to fill up extras i havnt done.
