I haven't seen the numbers for Jedi, but here's how it worked for me.


I filled two tier-1 boxes for carbineer at 175k apiece, that's 350k xp.


I respec'd them for the master rifle box, that's a MILLION xp.


I saved 650k and wound up with skill points to spare. Because I majored in math in college, it took me about 10 seconds to figure that one out, and use the system to get my master box in less than half the time. Exploit? No. I utilized a feature of the system the Devs put in place.


Your Jedi target obviously did something similar.


That's the way the system is designed.


Well, the flaw in all the respec assumptions is that a 210k bounty has all his skill points except for 16 tied up in Jedi. The only way to bring the bounty down to 140k is to respec 70 jedi sp to non-jedi skills. My guess would be that he decided to be a MBH..



No, the flaw is your inability to do math. The lower tier boxes have the highest SP cost. 8 for novice, and 8 for tier one. With 5 novice boxes that's 40k, then look at the fact that there is 4 tier 1 boxes in 5 professions, so that's 32k per profession, so that's 160k. Add that 160k to the 40k and you have 200k padawn who has nothing but all tier 1 boxes. He respec's up the trees, 6 skill points for tier 2, 4 SP for tier 3, 2 SP for tier 4 and 1 SP for master. The jedi's bounty is 1k per skill point they have in Jedi skills. 4 tier 1 boxes cost 12 more skill points than a single tree up to tier 4.


can we get a number crunch over here? LEROYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Lemme get this straight, it took you TEN seconds to figure out that 175k times 2 = 350k - 1 million = 650k?
