I'm trying to level up investigation, andafellow Bounty Huntermentioned that faction base terminals give good xp. I'm not sure if this is true or not, so any help would be appreciated

Slicing facitonal bases used to be the best way to go about it. Now though it seems like they have made the NPCs dangerous enough to counter that. If you can get in and jam the uplink you can get 1000xp a pop. You just have to make it in alive.

So I could just run into a base and run out? Or is it more complicated than that?

in theory you could. though theses days that will draw a lot of aggro.

Get some cheap assault armor and some parawan nutricake, stand about 50m out, pop the parawan use /tar for the terminal, run to it slice it and run out.

Be sure to get an inspiration buff before you go. That 10% over time makes the difference as I made it through invest 4 by 5 points. I had to do 4 NPC missions at the end of an 8 base run with some guildies that took the aggro as I sliced.
When you hit the Uplink Terminial (yellow faced) start at 5 and go from there. You have to narrow the band between 10 links so 5 is the midpoint. You have to narrow two times to get the link jammed, so don't back out till you see the system message saying you are done.
Good luck.

Did you have a problem finding a base that was vulnerable? From what I read on the GCW forum the bases are vulnerable 3 hours every-other day. And (as of pub 21) you can't get anopposite-faction spy to look at the terminaltotell you when a particular base is going to be open: they can now only look at the planet map and tell you which ones are vuln at that particular moment.
Or is there something to this that I'm missing?

You can't just /tar uplink, run in, slice run out.
You have to be out of combat (So let them incap you)
Then you have to choose a channel (out of 10) Go for 5 then work up or down depending on what it says,
Then you have to choose the next part (out of 10) Same as before.
THEN you get 1k invest xp.
But you cant get attacked throughout or it stops jamming.
Good luck

PVE bases are vuln all the time SF bases are once every other day

You don't need all the fancy food, just get near the terminal and die. You can slice while dead lol

Have they STILL not fixed that?
Oh wait, they have a pretty new jedi planet to create, no time for bug fixes.
