I'm at 3-3-2-3. And after knowing that the fourth boxes are 80k xp each, it makes me think that the grinding is just about to get started. With 10k, 30k, and 50k for the first three boxes, phew. Man, this is going to take a while.

do as i did 
turn off all music in game and get rdy with your macros and resources. then u put on the radio,some music or what i did some comedy stuff,so u kinda do something else while crafting.
the trick is to NOT consentrate on the crafting itself 
good luck to ya

Since you have Tissue 3, grind Broad-Spectrum Neutrients. In practice mode you'll get 168 xp per. Providing you have the proper macro, you can do approximately 12096 xp per 10 minutes.

If you run your macro with 6 crafting station and only 6 second pause for resources and a 2 second pause between stations, then you make the run in 51 seconds which equates out to 12096 xp per 10 minutes of grinding...providing you have no misfortunes (ie missing a crafting cycle).

I did the macro things some but most of my BE crafting XP I got from doing animals. I would empty my inventory as much as possible. Take a back pack and 3 droids with 10 item storage each. I would have 80 samples between the droids and the backpacks and usually another 25 or so in my inventory. That makes around 21 pets or so. Then I put them on my vendor. If they were crappy I jsut priced the low for a possible noob CH to buy. I made money through the whole process, wasn't board, and learned a lot about making templates. The XP wasn't bad at all and was far more enjoyable than jsut sitting grinding suppliments in practice mode.

When I was bored grinding my BE, about 2 weeks ago (dinged Master last night 
), I sat down with my trusty calculator and worked out that...
LVL 1 = about 25 mins
LVL 2 = about 1hr 10 mins
LVL 3 = about 2 hrs
LVL 4 = about 3 hrs
That's if you grind on micronutrient supplements only, and don't do anything elseofc

I am now doing dna sampling, in ways it a little nicer, other than the failure rate at the beginning.
As for grinding. It takes 4368 grinds to get through the other trees. That is by following the faq and getting 105xp then 168xp... talk about boring....
Atleast its over....

When I got tissue 3, I was 1-3-2-2. I got tissue 3 specifically to grind broad-spectrum neutrients. I started harvesting shellfish as I was doing the crafting. I haven't been running any macros other than the shellfish one. I dno't see how getting 12096xp is possible in 10 minutes. I'm on dialup. I have to wait to upload and download during the crafting process.
