Right now

Im a 0/0/1/0 Commando, 3/2/1/1 CH, 3/3/2/3 medic and Im just absolutely stuck on what to donext. Part of me wants to just drop CH, and go Smuggler/Commando/Novice medic, but do I get pistol xp with my launcher pistol? Im totally maxed on Pistol XP so there is no way to tell. Anyone here else a Smuggler/Commando Mix. Maybe Since I have most of scout finished I could go BH/Commando Novice Medic route, some advice would be welcomed.

Launcher pistols give Heavy Weapons Experience.

Have you used a Launcher Pistol lately?

I just got Novice Commando and keep getting Pistol XP off of the Launcher Pistol as well.

Anyone else having this problem?

Thats what I was wondering....because if you didnt get pistol xp, then you couldnt use Smuggler specials with a Commando weapon. Is anyone a Bounty Hunter/Commando mix?

I've done BH/Commando and it's really pointless... the Light Lightning Cannon is pretty darned good, admittedly, but its only use is a followup weapon to the flamethrower burns.

The Launcher Pistol can use all pistol-derived specials, including anything from Pistols, Pistoleer, Smuggler DF, and Bounty Hunter Bounty Pistol. It should be giving HW XP, so the guy getting pistols XP is bugged.

At the mutannt rancor spawn at Dath I am only sometimes (1/20 cases) able to sample from them - and thereby always kill them.

1. Question: Am I doing something wrong? As far as I have read, it should be easier.

2. After being aggroed I will never be DB'ed, cause the mutant rancors aggro each other constanly killing each other. When I say constantly, I mean it literally. They never finish off before the next spawn, so it results in mutant rancor armageddon. Saw no less then 30 of those critters fighting each other... Anyone has experienxed this?

3. As I am no master Scout (4-0-4-4) I cannot see the creature level anymore - can someone give me the highest critters a BE master can sample now? Mutant rancor I did, so it is possible, but I do know really nothing about others...

1. Your probably doing it right. Some days2 out of 3sample attempts gets me a sample. Other days I get htem 1 in 20. There is a strong belief in the crafting community that the random number generator is broken and this could be another example.

2. Nope I've seen them kill each other off, but usually for me they've all run away from each other by the time the next spawn occurs. I tend to find MR's at almost know health on the outskirts after this. I also find it useful to lead any og them that are chasing me into Malkloc Plainswalkers. The Plainswalkers can easily take the Rancors but are non-aggro.

3. There are reports by MBE's of sampling things in the 80-85 range but none have ever been confirmed. Please note that it use to be possible to sample any creature in the game. However this was taken away many moons ago. There are still some peko-peko albatross DNA samples floating about which is why its difficult to confirm the ability to sample higher level creatures. 75 (Mutant Rancor) is the accepted limit fora MBE.
