Well some like to powerlevel some do not. I myself have been grinding out trying to get Novice BH... yep. Many people aren't even close to mastering their starter professions. I guess about 30-40% are just playing the game for what it is and taking their time. About 50-60% are probably power leveling and grinding out to get to where they want to be. Another 10-20% well they are the ones who have already gotten to where they wanted to be and are either bored or are now taking a break and enjoying the game. I for one will start to enjoy the game once I get closer to master BH

Guess I'm not the only one that felt this way....I've run across a ton of forum posts now saying the same thing. Basically that there is no real content after getting skills...at least not yet anyways. Which is kind of sad really. I mean skills are easy to get, just how long did Sony think it was going to take to get exp from shooting stuff?? 3 months, 6 months, a year?!?


Even ran across one post that had about 120 posts under it from people all complaining that there's no content after finishing skills. Just aimless wandering...


So it seems right now there's still no answer to the title of this post other then "wander around", "see the sights", um...check out Jabba's Palace (yippee, quest took about 6 hours to finish all the steps up til the bugged one). Seems like a real lack of things to do other then be a nomad...oohhh or just be like Kane from Kung-Fu, and wander the land. Yeah that sounds real Bounty Hunter-ish, wandering around with no real purpose...wonder how much that pays?

First off this is'nt to flame but the reason you got the bh exp so easy is because of bugged mobs ect.. I have talked to plenty of people in game saying exp is so easy, then i find them later in lok killing mobs with bugged runspeed for like 1k plus a pop. People grouping with ch pets for the sole reason of the exp bonus ect.. ect..


there are alot of cheesy terain and mob exploits out there still. I am sure players who buy the game in 6 months or so will have it harder because of all the stuff that is fixed.


As for what can you do after you hit master bounty hunter.


I would suggest going to dathomir and getting faction with the night sisters. I have heard that if you do enough of their "very hard" missions you can get some really good armor. It will be a challenge for you if and only if you choose to fight the npcs/mobs legit. If you choose to use terain and bleed exploits im sure it will be easy for you like getting master bh was. It is up to you.

I'll tell you honestly that I don't know what kind of exp exploits you're talking about. Most of my exp came from duo'ing with a friend who is now a Teras Kasi Master. Between the two of us we would just keep knocking stuff down and it would never touch us. How this is considered an exploit I don't know. Was quite simple to clear out biz natch lairs over and over for quite a bit of exp, usually 3k-4.5k per mob. Although fighting Jedis were interesting for a while, the exp per kill wasn't that great considering how long they took to kill, and the loot they drop is just ok. Nothing really special other then Force Orbs. There was no running around using terrain bugs or whatever you're talking about, just straight up fighting.


As for the Dathomir Nightsister faction, that's interesting. Most of my exp for weapon skills in BH tree was done in Dathomir. Right now I'm maxed on faction with Nightsisters but don't know what kind of armor you're talking about. And I'm a wookiee so don't think working on armor quests will matter much since they can't really wear much for armor. However, that is an interesting suggestive for those out there who could wear the stuff, thanks for that info.


Heh as for saying your post wasn't a flame? Well, don't know how else to take that other then reading it as if someone got exp faster then you they must have exploited. But all I can tell you is exp is quite easy to get if you just hunt in the right places, exploits aren't needed. The only exp that is a pain is Investigative exp and I'm not quite sure how you'd say that was exploited since basically the hard part of that is having to travel all over the place just to find the mark.

I have just become a novice swordsman! Yay for me! I'm an off and on player. I'm just wonder where I should go next to earn good xp. I tried missions of 50 difficulty on Lok and missions of 35 on Dantooine and there were just too hard for me. I'm on Talus now and there's so **edit** easy. The difficulty is around 11 for all the missions. Can I raise the difficulty to around 20 or where do I find missions with around 20? MAybe I should just go to a dungeon for xp? How did you guys do it? Because I'm an off and on player, I don't really jump into groups at endor and kill big things. I'm more of a solo char.

on places like dantooine, dathomir, lok, endor etc.. The missions seem to be listed no matter how high you are in your combat proffession. I beleive its all the planets with no major cities. They have like outposts and stuff, but no capital.



All other planets however, are based on your current combat proffession skill level. So for novice you will only get difficulty 11 missions. Until you advance then they will go higher.

well on rori they have a "smuggler base of operations" thingy directly south of the imp city (cant remeber name, even tho ive been there a lot, pissin me off) which is great xp, and its coo 2. they also have a borgle cave on rori but i dont know were it is. on naboo they have the narglatch cave east of moenia which is awesome, great fun, but on lok they have perlek and flit missions, which r pretty easy to solo, even tho the perlek missions take some time, and give great xp for a novice swordsman.

Why are missions on Lok 50 and on Tatooine 11?

because you cant get higher then 25 i beleive. Because a person who has mastered a combat proffession is considered difficulty 25. So for planets like Lok and Endor, you need a group to do them so they are all listed no matter what how high or low you are in a combat proffession.

K, maybe I'm an idoit, but you said I cant get higher than 25 when I get 50 in lok. Do you mean me or the missions? I have a level? Where can I go for missions around 30 difficulty?
