I went into the Geo cave two weeks ago, and put a hurtin' on everything in my path. Went with a group: Rifleman/Doc, MBH (LLC baby!), Novice Medic/Pistoleer, and a Novice Carbineer. I was 0/1/0/1 Swordsman using my PH on those vuln to blast, and my 2-handed Curved on everything else. Buffed, Brandied, and in full composite. I was incapped twice, and finally overtaken while dealing with a pile of Geonsians(4), Kwis(2), and NPCs(5) who all came down a ramp at the same time after killing the rest of my group (we never saw the dood they were chasing). I was the last man standing, and took out almost half of them before I went down.

I LOVE Swordsman!!

I'm sorry, but I find the unbuffed part a little hard to believe. Inorder to outdamage groups you would need to be swining fast, and maybe you forgot but our power hammers have HEALTH special move costs of 100+. If you were wearing armor and were unbuffed then you prolly had almost no strength, which means you were practically incapping yourself.



When I am buffed and am wearing my 80% comp I can solo everything in the cave, including 4 Alert Droidekas at once, which if you are wearing Ubese will tear you apart. The acklay was pretty easy, it justtook a while, and I am ALWAYS able to outdamage large groups on the Geonosian spawns.

I don't remember what room it was exactly, but it has some sort of a + sign shaped walkway in it. Theres an npc and mercenary's run in to help occasionally (which then turn on you).

Went in with pistoleer(hologrinding)/CM friend and there was some sort of bug that made the geo's keep spawning (constantly). As a MHS/Doc in 72% kinetic making sure CoB was always on neither of us got incapped once. We were deleting loot just to make enough room hoping to get better stuff. After about 20-30 mins and full inventories/backpacks we *accidentally* gathered as many droideka's, kwi's, geo's etc as we could find on aggro and took them up to the afk macro'ers at the top on our way out.

He was wearing 80% composite and got hit a lot more then me obviously (not a master). In fact each time he used a ranged stim it healed me for very little, my buffs were faster then they were damaging me (I buff for 2500 on all stats). AND I was tanking give or take 10-12 geo's that were constantly respawning with mercenaries as well.

They did however destroy the condition of my armor. It went from about 19000+ to 8000 just from that room The only thing I fear in that cave when wearing ubese is alert droidekas. (which can be taken down by about 4 /headhit3's)

Geonosians are realy one of the easiest things in the caves if you handle them properly. Typically you wont get a ton of them using the stun pistol at once but even if they do just rush them and AOE attack them as quick as possible. They will switch to melee and you can take them out far easier by either one at a time or just AOE them all down.


I do recommend something better than Ubese though, somethings in there use energy attacks (droidekas) and you will die in a couple hits from those without good protection.

I also recommend being buffed of course.

The Crazed Genonosians can be easy but they can also surprize you with a super high damage hit. If you feel you must go to the cave be sure to get buffs and wear good armor.

One interesting thing to note.. many of the creatures in that dungeon do not get along. Kwi, Kliknik and Droideka for instance will often agro on eachother instead of you. (as long as you are not fighting them or peace out)


I found this out when trying to pull a kwi back to my group and passing a droideka then a kliknik on the way that respawned behind me.. and they all started fighting eachother and my combat window went away.

here's a question for you guys...


Do i need a full suit of composite or can i manage with the helm chest and leg portions alone..


Like would that along with buffs alow me to solo the genosian area... i've read what you guys wrote and it seems the way to beat these genosians is not to get them in a fire fight but to force the to go melee....


thanks

^^ I duno about you but I was able to solo ONE, that's right, count ONE geonosian that was attacking me. I was using a PH somewhere near 170-560, 5.4. My Swordsman skills were 2434. Of course I was buffed to about 3600 and with muon came 1000 mind


That da** geonosian did quite a damage on me of course. BTW those spiders down there are easy to solo


Oh, and I am a WOOKIEE

haha... nice... i was thinking about getting back in to holo grinding thing since i've been silent for a while


So i haven't really gotten into doing melee (well the elite portion of it ) all i seem to have is the brawler section.
