Carbineer Archive

Have found the armoru already. 75% will buy it i think. Oh i must add, Mental buffs is mebbe also a good thing to bring right? i got incapped a few times cause of mental damage.

Great post - I know it took a lot of work to put together.

My Comments:
1. Im a wookie so no armor which sucks. So instead of Armor Im a master creature handler and I use my pets to take the kinetic dmg off me.

2. Since Im an MCH I can get higher level missions with +70 lvl pets grouped with me. If I can get them, I do Seething bols on Dantooine. I get roughly 4K-4.5K XP per bol, there are no babies for these so that's 3 bols per lair x 4K - 12K x3 =36K plus roughly 4k for the lair - 40K per mission and 80K XP per outing.

3. I am always buffed when I hunt - just Holding a carbine drains HAM! I used FAS2 until I got Crippleshot - with an EE3 because Bols are vuln to heat.

4. I pull the dudes one at a time by bleeding with one shot, a few secs later they attack me - Im at 85m from lair so the family wont all attack - when the beast is roughly 50 meters, I attack with pets and as soon as they make contact I start spamming (FAS2 or Cripple). I have tried using scattershot2 but I think its about the same as crippleshot. FAS2 is a bit faster but crippleshot has a better dmg modifier.

This methodology works if you have good pets that can tank and some pet stims. I admit that the lairs take a bit longer but I like the sustained killing and I get 16K per mission (80K XP and 32K cash per outing).

If you want to do any ranged prof and you're a wookie - get Master CH - no armor is a huge penalty and we get no special resists or anything to compensate for that. So, pvp is a whole different story (and I wont get into that here).I think the whole no armor thing is stupid - if Chewy had needed armor at some point - he would have gotten some. The only people in the entire 5 movies out so far that wear armor are BHs and Stormtroopers - are they the only profs that get to wear armor?

Hi all, im no carbineer but im planing to do that shortly, however i have found a great way to xp combat classes fast. The key is to migrate all possible stats to Mind/will/focus. I play human with 400 in all physical stats and 1000/1000/1000 on mind stats. Now this requires u to alway shunt buffed, but heck most of us already follow that golden rule anyway. Now with buffs i have some nice stats on physical (enough to tank anything even reminding of a quenker) and i have enough mind stats to do pretty much whatever i like.

Cheers and if anyone has any oppinion on my tactic feel free to leave a reply as i would like to hear what u have to say.

Vagnerian Canape, less expensive than brandy, and better buffs on your secondaries. I use +693 Canape twice and the little blue number vanishes completely when I work.

I think this post deserves a a bump, it's been dying and many people should be reading it.
