Hey guys, i'm trying to go up the unarmed combat tree and and was wanting to know what in the heck do you do for XP, is it just me or is not like the most tedious thing ever? You get next to no XP and i seem to take more damage. Any ideas for XP, i am on tatooine and don't really want to leave the planet but i'm open to all suggestions.

Are you using a weapon or bare hands?


Are you a novice brawler?


I will assume that you are. Here is my 2 cents. I started out on Tatooine and its not a bad place to start. Do some missions. Take the Kreetle missions or the Gorgs, They seem to be the easiest to kill in the beginning. You will be getting credits and xp at the same time. When you have enough money buy knuckles. They aren't too bad but they cost when you go beserk so unequip and equip them after you are beserk.


What server are you on?


Hook up with a couple marksman and work together on killing mobs.

Is unarmed combat XP 10% of the XP gained by killing creatures, like it is with the marksman tree? Or is it any differant ?


125000 unarmed xp seems an awfull lot to get for TKA Novice if it is that way.

I'm having major problems getting the 125k. With my super high damage Commando I can one shot things for 3x the XP of unarmed 4? Anything I can kill gives no XP, andyhting with good XP takes way to long to kill. What is going on? Why is the XP so bad compared to my higher skilled professions?

No, it's just the XP type you gain when using a VK or hands.


For example, say you killa womp rat. You will get 300 unarmed combat xp and 30 combat xp.


If you've done marksman, it replaces all that XP you got while doing that

the 125k unarmed is easy.


1. Get a set of 70% ubese or 80% comp.

2. Get a full set of doc buffs (I'd suggest 2000+ if available on your server)

3. Head to Dantooie and get quenker missiosns.

4. Wash Rinse Repeat

Gets so much easier. Just get a pair of Speed Sliced Vk's, 1.5 or lower if you can. Head to dantooine and just kill anything in sight. Went from unarmed IV to novice TK playing about 2 hours a day for 2 days. And like previously said definetly get doc buffs and make sure to get mind buffs along with vagnerian canape and vaserian brandy since your mind takes most of the hits. Eat two of each and just span unarmed hit 1. If you can make sure to try and use intimidate, stun, blind and throw in a warcry or two. Makes the grind go a lot faster. Make sure to wear some High percentage kinetic and if you can take on creatures that are low kinetic resists like huurtons. Hope this helps

actually at unarmed 4 "Spin attack1" was the better attack. You will slice through quenkers so fast it will make your head spin.

My mistake, its been some time since that grind. I used unarmed hit 1 mainly because i tended to take on one creature at a time and didnt want to get incapped (was a little too cautious after my first experience with tuskens after just getting unarmed IV) and at the time I figured Spin was a more area attack and wouldve done less. I forgot to add in my last post that as soon as you get novice TK the +70 damage will make a dramatic increase and you'll start to hit for much more.

The 125k Unarmed XP you need is NOT Combat XP. Its just normal Unarmed Weapon XP which you'll get the full amount for when you kill something. The only thing a TKA needs Combat XP (10% of your Unarmed Weapon XP per kill) for is the Precision Striking skill line.

I just made TKM. Spam Spin1 on a quenker lair and get all 6 to pop, they go down fast. Make sure you are grouped with a droid/pet/anything for the bonus. They give 3188xp unarmed per quenker, ~20K total with lair.Huurton Stalker layers (natural) also are good hunts once you get a bit higher in the tree. 4Kxp per kill and continual spawns. I think they give ~15 or so per lair + lair itself.


Do the power tree first. Once you've moved up in the trees, I had mucho fun with gapping spiders on dath. A natrual layer would continually spawn, avg 100K xp per lair. No need to worry about poisions when buffed, and eventually you can get rid of it quick via med after the fight.


Did I mention this is the most fun I've had in this game so far? I'll be doing the swordsman tree soon.

Ahh, I see now. /doh


That has made me feel a lot better. I was thinking it's going to take forever.
