I went to the Vette last night with my Doc/Carbineer toon in a 7 man group and it wasn't bad with a decent DXR6 and fullautosingle2 spam but I mostly did area heals and incap/corpse drags around the ship.

I haven't bothered with the Geo lab or bunker since I know for a fact they're not much use in there and I am better off with my swordsman/pikeman toon.

While you can call me a Defense Stacker with 4440 Fencer and 0043 Pistoleer, I carry zero pistols and zero 1H weapons.....I am a Carbineer that gets FULL RESPECT in PvP and Dueling.....


Of course I have no defenses for those exploiter CM's, but hey nobody is perfect....




But don't complain how awful Carbineer is unless you want to come over to Chilastra to prove it

CM exploiters? You just gotta kill them before their poison ticks you down Also I would kind of expect an almost master fencer to carry one-handed weapons, and a pistoleer to carry pistols buts that just me


Please flame me, I know its coming

That's only 10 seconds to kill them, 20 if you have a decent sized mind, and if they are grouped, their group will kill you in one shot once you're gotten them.

Without the 4th tree in fencer, you can't hitanyone in PvP that has moderate to high defenses. You don't have enough accuracy.

No flame necessary as Eisman got most of it.....a "normal" CM I can kill because they don't Havla spam poisons.....


And there is nobody in their right mind that would pull a Stun Baton in PvP with only 4440 Fencer or ANY pistol at 0040 Pistoleer......you obviously have not experienced either profession.....

Nah, I wouldn't call it a flame. I was just pointing out the cold hard facts.


And, yes, I have lost my mind a few times lol, thus I did try to use a stun baton with only 4400 fencer. That is how I know there is not enough accuracy . I believe you learn a lot more from failure than you do from any ammount of success.

I have been fencer 4000 and I didnt carry a stun baton either. However I did feel like I was invading their profession, and taking advantage of the game mechanics, but then again thats how this game was built

I made 3 Master ID's after the patch. One on Test center, One on Naritus, and One on Shadowfire. I found it 10 times easier than what I went through back during launch day a year ago.

How much longer can we still unlock ourfs slot by grinding? I've played this game since 2 weeks after it came out, but liked my character the way he was so I never started grinding. So far I have materedMedic, Doc, Pistoleer and Teras kasi Artist on my main character.Now I want to play a Jedi... thats why I bought the game in the first place. Will I have time, or should I just wait for the quest based system. I have done most ingame, so I need something new... trying out new proffessions is one of them, but I have done a few with characters on other servers other then my main character and they aren't something I wold keep.


So, how much longer can I grind and will I have time to do it?

Very unlikely you will do it in time, when pub10 is released you will have to quest for your fss - there is no release date set in stone yet.


But you will be credited for each profession you have mastered, so a good way for you would be now to do whatever professions you like to explore and then continue to unlock with the quest system when it goes live.


Try to get the best out of your current situation and be a bit patient, thats all.

You have about a month (Aug 29th was last date I saw posted) before pub 10.


Can you do it? Maybe. Depends on how much time you put into the grind and a lot of luck.


If you knew/did your 4 holo professions, you might get lucky and find that 5th silent profession.


Good luck

You have until the release of pub 10 (release date late August?) so at this time you don't have much of a chance unlocking under the current system. Are any of your previous professions holo-profs? That may give you a chance, but it's a long shot.
