I grinded out 22,000 cxp with vanilla BEC's over the course of 3 hours.

I got 36cxp per, (practicing)

I know someone must have grinded this same way before the patch. What were your results then?

Why would you want to grind through BE practise packs at 36 exp (which is BTW lower then before patch, it was 39 or 40), when you can grind through full B packs and sell them on bazaar for profit and earn 170 exp per pack (4 crafts) ?

Because I can craft a BEC with 1 click, and 2 double clicks, in less than 5 seconds.


36 per 5 seconds is the bestmcxp I've been able to find. (I made 40K xp tonight alone)


I'm Grinding. I want to get through the crafting line asquickly as humanly possible. I'm not interested in selling stim b's because they don't get me the xp fast enough.


Don't think Just because I'm grinding out through 1 tree of my profession (2 actually, I'm also a CM) that I'm not taking time to smell the roses. I just want to be able to throw better heals *NOW*. Maybe when I'm master doctor, I'll sell some B's. I'll even be able to experiment them up more.

To grind faster:



1. Use the Enter key rather than clicking on OK or NEXT


2. Don't sit near a crafting station. This way you don't even get the Experiment screen.


3. Double Click to move ingredients from inventory to their slots. (try binding your middle button to double click)



I did infection amplifiers for 55xp each (not practice). If you can get Loki Wheat and Tatooine fiberplast you can do even more with advanced somethings (I forget).

Try this. Use the generic crafting tool instead of the chemical one.


I get 36 craft xps with the F&C and 46 with the generic.


I have no idea why. Maybe it's the quality or something else I've not figured out. I'm wondering if others get the same thing.

If you read through yesterday's doctor board posts, there's some macro that will:
open the crafting station;
load the proper schematic;
wait 3 seconds (long enough for you to double-click the 2 components)
go the next 2 steps;
create the prototype;

go to the doctor board and search for something like nextCrafting and loadSchematic I think those were 2 of the commands.

Also, this is messy, and hard to get working. Don't think it will work perfectly for your connection right off the bat. If you can't get it to work, just use the enter-key (as mentioned above) and don't come here whining that "Macro crafting doesn't work" That's the kind of post that will get this taken away.

Was exp requirement increased recently ?
When I got Master you only needed 27k for last tier, and even less for others (and my screen still gives same numbers), but on character builder it says you need 50k.
