who cares what anyone thinks? do what you wanna do and play the game you want to play it. you pay 15$ a month, if you want to afk grind go ahead.

In my book of ethics etc I would say no. Your utilizing a static spawn to gain steady exp (which is less than area attack grinding groups by far). I have no objections to anyone at the keyboard but macroing the trail.

I have been specifically told by a CSR that grinding on that part of the trail is viewed as an exploit because it is taking advantage of a spawn rate that is too fast. Hence the occational DJM they spawn on people there. Whether or not this is a good explanation remains to be seen.




they are calling it an exploit because of the null spot not because of the fast spawn

I would say yes, but only because you are shooting yourself in the foot.



Lets say you make it to full template Jedi while there. You will then be a full template knight who has no clue what you're doing.



Being a Jedi doesn't make you win, knowing how to play makes you win.

Amen.


If you want to AFK grind, do it.

Who cares what all the others think?

That's the problem with a lot of people today, they worry too much about what others think of them.

Just worry about yourself, family, and friends.

Forget the rest.

If any of it were wrong, they would take that part of the game out. I dont give a danm how long it took pre-cu johnny lightsaber to grind his jedi, Theres a place where i can do it quicker and safer, and he would have done the same. dont hate the player....hate the game baby!

There were plenty of places. And many of us didn't AFK there.


Just admit that you want to take the quick and easy path, as Vader did


Keep in mind I'm not saying that going there to grind is wrong. What I am saying is that AFKing your way through Jedi will hurt you a lot more than it will help you, by giving you a finished template Jedi, and no clue how to use it..

Being a Jedi doesn't make you win, knowing how to play makes you win.










As if grinding 1 billion missions teachs you how to be a jedi, plz i NEVER afk macroed my jedi, I played at my keyboard no macros punching buttons all the way through all my jedis boxs until i got to where i am now, waiting for the FRS to return with a full template padi and all it taught me was the devs idea of a "challenge" is to bore you to tears. I did not learn one thing that can be applyed ion bh encounters and not one thing about what it takes to win a pvp confrontation all this knowledge came AFTER i was done grinding jedi and went into the waiting patteren with all the others.


Weither you grind at the key board or afk you learn nothing about how to fight well as all the grind is target, attack rinse repeat until you have a few billion points the jedi grind is NOT a challenge its an exercise in boredom, thats why there are so many jedi cause all they have to do is grind the higher there tolerance for un ending tedium the faster they will get there.


I tell all my friends that are starting jedi 3 things:


1. stay off the terms if you dont want to be hunted


2. be ready to be bored out of your mind.


3 keep a good book near so youll have something to do while you grind. (at minimum the average person will be able to just reach out and hit the target key and attack key no need to look in most cases as it will most of the time turn out exactly the same as the last 1000 kills)


In short get there however makes you happy you wont learn anything relavent to pvp until you pvp and currently with the average non-jedi profesion does 2x the damage of a sabre youll need to be max template to have a hope of survival.

Just bear in mind that you get visibility there, where hunting in groups is not only faster XP but safer. so if you are ATK, then it is actually better for you to hit a group and use the opportunity to experiment with attacks and how they affect you.


No Vis, so you don't get the BH calling on you and you get more xp and no DJK or whatever showing up to send you to the Cloners. sounds like ATK group work is safer and easier.


BTW, for the AFK and "you pay the same $15 a month, so do whatever you want" losers..... I pay 15 a month to NOT see a bunch of zombies. You want an MMO, fine, there are lots... this is an MMO*RPG*. How about actually getting with the program?

Then you have learned nothing.


I'd be willig to bet you can't figure out why you lose all the time.
