if your not joking, i pity you. what are you fighting? i suggest get buffed and go to dantooine and fight quenkers. get a droid and make a group for extra exp, 3188 per quenker if grouped. a month and not a box is shameful. i can do a while box in a day of solid grinding (8+ hours)

With a good buff, and a few experienced players (i.e. those that do moderate damage and know how to group effectively), Dathomir's Enraged Rancor missions will be your XP oasis

Not a single box in a month is very, very slow, even unbuffed.


My advice if you're not constantly buffed:


- Do the highest-level missions that you can get from the terminals. Don't do any missionthat pays less than 2k. Equip a good weapon when getting missions from the terminals.


- Pick fights withwhite, yellow and red cons only. Don't waste your timeon blue unless you really have to.


- Spend a few nights at Fort Tusken.

1) Get Advanced Ubese Armor with 60%+ (75% if you can find it) Kinetic Resists (Composite works, too)


2) Get Doctor Buffs


3) Get Vassarian Brandy


4) Get your ass to Endor and kill EVERYTHING.


I re-mastered Carbineer in two days. This is how I did it.

-Ditto- You'll level fast there.

LOL!


I'm sorry about that, but I had to laugh!


I work 12 to 14 hour days, play basketball for about 3 hours or so every other day, and I play SWG in between when I can, and I'm only 6 boxes away from master Carbineer and I've only been one for a little less than 2 weeks...,


...and I thought I was moving extremely slow!!!


Anyway, yeah dude, the afforementioned are some good suggestions. I think the most popular of them is Dantooine though, (imho). it's usually easy to find a doc buffing at the mining outpost, if not, Coronet on Corellia is just a shuttle hop away. You can go there, get buffed and immediately catch a shuttle back. Get Focus and willpower buffs from a musician if you can, if not, do the vasarian brandy thing.


And yes, the Kinetic resist ubese armor is a must if you are soloing, preferably 70% or higher. if possible, when at the lower levels or Carbineer, group with a couple of melee types tank for you but not to many so they don't suck up all the xp, (it's a lot less boring than grinding alone).


Me personally though, if I'm on a mission to grind out as fast as possbile, I get fully buffed and armored up like stated above, and go soloing and killing everything in sight, but until you get a little speed and a little accuracy from the left-most skill boxes, you are probobly better served just killing hurton matrons, hurton huntresses, and quenkers, then you can move up to adding pickets to your repetoir, then on to a 'kill everything in sight' regimen.


I think it takes most semi-casual/hardcore players about a standard week to master most combat profs using similar methods as the above, but that's just what I have noted.

Ok for low dif and safe hunting id say go to rori and look for normal Tortons. not enraged or anything just the normal ones. You probably wont be able to take missions for them at your level though unless you group with a few high combat level chars. But i tell you to hunt them because they are big and weak to acid damage. Also they Do not Death Blow so if you get in trouble you can most likely back off...just watch for 3 incaps hehe. I recomend buffing here also though. Buffed you should have no problem with a bit of brandy. get 4k exp a kill here or so.



Might be kinda hard to just run around looking for them though...wen i did it i got missions heh. But wile your out hunting em grab an exploror mission. They are about 10k and wen you kill 45 of da bashtards you get the bonus heh. Also wile your leveling and before the nerf grab novice brawler. THe warcry can delay targets within 20 m of you for 10 seconds. If you get a kd in just before this it keeps em down for that long and you can realy hammer the damage on em. Wen you need the points or they nerf wc just drop it : ) only 100 credits to learn.
