Thread: Who will Win? Garvin or Me?
im only missing the field tactics4 for master commando. Lets see if you get master tka before I get the master commando box
But I have to admit...TKA took me a lot longer then it took you...you had me beat there (I could make tons of excuses...but 4 days is quite impressive)
LET THE GRINDING END!!!!
Belak

SOB 
Grats garvin!
What you do? play at work? dangit 
Ah well... lesse... 130k combat xp to go... thats... ermm.. 1k xp per kill... 3 kams per pop, 3 pops per nest ... nest gives 2k... 9k for kams per nest... 2k for nest thats 11k...
must do 11 nests. hmm.. should get it by tonight. if my crate of glops lasts me that long
Nah...got lucky last night...began the evening needing just 225K of balance....found a spot where 2 fambaa nests spawned...4.5K xp each....at least 15 Fambaas per nest = 67500 in xp...and one Bolle Bol nest for around 95K in xp...too care of the 225K in unarmed pretty nicely...
Combat xp is a pain, expecially if you already finished the other tree's...I tried to get all my combat xp first (in some cases using other weapons)...I had heard the higher you go, the less xp you get on lower npcs...which is true...I use to get decent xp on Maulers and such...now I get between 1 and 8 pts xp per kill...which forces us to take on bigger game to get our xp...lol
If you want a quicker way...get buff'd....go to dathmir and take on the rancors...use unarmed...unarmed combat xp is the same as commando combat xp, lol...I fought a nest of Ancient Rancors the other day, 5K in xp each (so 500 combat xpeach)...use ft to put a dot on them, then it's just a beat down...lol
Since I got all my combat xp before completing the other trees, I'm sitting on almost 200K in combat xp that I can use someday down the road...
Funny thing happened to me when I completed the xp for Master TKA...well, it wasn't too funny at the time...Tac, I think you had something to do with it in fact!!!!
I finished my grinding and saw I finally had 450K for my final box...I went to climb on my mount (the radial came up correctly) but I couldn't get on, the game wouldn't let me...I didn't have any effects on me, and I was perfectly healed...some weird in game bug...everytime I tried to get on my mount, the mount would pop away from me about 10m....
So in otherwords...I had to run about 1800m to the TKA trainer with no terrain negotiation skills (no scouting skills at all)...boy was that a long run....I kept thinking what perfect timing that was for the bug to hit...
its not so hard actually.. last night i got box3 in like 30 minutes by going along with a group.and just lobbed 2 grenades (that hit) at each kam , and 5 grenades at the nest when it was under 50% life and empty. combat xp came in dang fast that way. Oh, and thats the combat xp you get on TOP of the 'normal' combat xp (i fire my FWG5 and get about 200 xp 'basic' for the kill and the 1k extra for the grenade).
Ill buy a crate of cryobans and a crate of the 'nades i qualified for in box3 (i forget..imperial i think it is) and tell the groups im there to provide uplifting special effects.
I didnt get to kill anything at all today, but got about 10 crates of C22s at 1500 damage from a vendor that I finally found on lowca that makes grenades.
Im not exactly focused on the combat XP. Will probably just use the grenades on the nests while I build up Rifleman. Seems to be a good way to keep everything moving.
