Thread: Unarmed 4....
So,,, im going to be a comando i said , use cool guns i said... YEAH RIGHT....
Unarmed 4 is TO hard , anything that i can kill that gives more than 50exp KICKS THE S**T out of me , i beg you today for sujestions of ways of getting this horrid little thing out my way , I WILL TRY ANYTHING
Well if you have a pet you can you share dmg with it when you're attacking something or..
You can goto tattooine and use a good bleed shot on a feral bantha (non-pack type) and hit it once with unarmed and run and it'll die pretty fash from the bleed (1.3k HAM).
If you're on Naboo, nightspiders and Flewts give 117 XP, or 146 XPif you're grouped with one pet and the pet does no damage.
Equip a pair of very fast knucklers. You'll gimp your damage by a few points but you'll vastly make up for it in the increased frequency of your swings. Just remember to unequip them before performing a special.
Acutally it's not really that hard. I just made unarmed4 for the exact same reason you have, to start toward Commando. I went from 50k to 70k in slightly over an hour.
Asthe above poster said, get a pair of fast VK's´and start hunting easy kills. Berserk all the time, nothing else, and just run around town killing things for 60-120 xp. Get a pet to group with so you get the extra % xp from grouping. It's extremly boring but you'll get your xp.
While you're at it you might as well take one or two exploring-missions so there is some cash into it.
Be patient, you'll get there.

Stock up on Tattooine Sunburns. They increase your str by 1500, and thus reduce your HAM costs for berzerk drastically.
Group with a droid or a pet to get the exp bonus, but don't let them fight. That way you get all the exp, including the bonus points.
Throw a noise maker trap on the mob while you're fighting it. This will double the combat exp (usually 10% of normal exp) that you get for that kill.
Berserk constantly with the sunburns.
Wear the fastest VK's you can find. Unarmed delay is 4 seconds vs 2.x for good VK's. 10 points less damage is no big deal if you're hitting twice as fast.
Use stims like water.
You should be able to do difficulty 10 missions like this and get through pretty fast.

it is a pain because pulling with a gun drops the ua experience but the small stuff will run from you if you group to make it some what worthwhile. Lairs are good for getting the small stuff to attack you. flewts and capper spineflaps are decent lairs to attack to pull lots of smalls just avoid the ones with queens and such ariound them unless you have some decent healing ability.
My recipe on Tatooine:
To level 1: Kill newbie stuff near cities. ETA to 1:30 minutes.
To level 2: More of the same (on tatooine concentrate on Rills and Worrts). ETA to level 2: 60 minutes
At this point (or earlier)get some Vibroknucklers around 2.1 speed or better.
To level 3: Diseased Bocatts. 248 per kill and quite easy. ETA to level 3: 2.5 hours.
To level 4: More diseased Bocatts and start trying Zucca Boars. I was doing 8-9k an hour. So lets be negative and say 7k and hour. ETA to Level 4: 10 hours.
To TKA novice: Zucca boars and Womp Rats. (pretty close to 10k and hour but lests be negative and say 8k) to TKA novice: 16 hours
So 14 hours to level 4 and 32 to TKA novice.
This is with a brand new character with no other skills. If you have raised pistol to level 4, start with a health shot (damage over time), which will leach the mob and not touch your Unarmed experience....
I will be a commando soon, now!
Of course, it would have went a lot better this weekend if they had not broken the missions. Had time to finish off TKA novice, but the missions are auto destructing as soon as I get within range. Fun if I was trying to make some cash (since they pay when they go poof) but not amusing when you are trying to get unarmed XP..... So what should of been finished yesterday or this morning (Sunday), will probable take most of the week since I can only play a couple of hours a day on work days. ....sigh.....
I am now unarmed IV, and best tactic yet is getting vibro knuckles (mine are speed 2.1 and damage app. 20-135). Pull an enemy with any ranged weapon you cant use or some small CDEF type. Unequipt weapon, hit them without any weapon and Blind special move, then go berserk and equipt knuckles. I am doing great xp now with a friend (Polearm IV on her way to pikeman) on Lok with all kind of perleks. It says the lair is difficulty 25 but i dont think so. Together we can kill every perlek if we get them solo. the big ones give each of us 900 xp. every lair will spawn app. 8-12 enemys and will then be empty and can be destroyed easily for another 3k of xp. Little bonus is, that you can outrun those creatures without burst run.
Have fun
Oh - and dont forget your stimpacs if you dont are a good medic. Downtime could be quite rough
