Well I am 3/0/4/0 and I'm looking for a faster method of grinding commando. I've tried flame coning at the tusken fort.. savage quenker missions.. and some other POIs. Anyone know a good place to unleash some flame cone?

Run around Endor with a flamethrower and buffs, kill EVERYTHING unless its like 50 percent resisted to heat, or do Giant Baz Nitch's on Dath if you need money, 10k a pop, can do 2 in under 10 minutes.

For Endor, you generally don't even need buffs. I'm partial to crazed gurreck and boar wolves, as well as all the bolle bol variances.

I did my Acid Rifle tree in a couple of hours using Flame Cone in the Squill cave. A whole cave of Heat vulnerable goodies. Buffs reccomended.

I had the best luck at a detachment HQ if you have the armor to take some heavy energy hits. 5 Groups of 3-5 npc's that you can usually cone and get all of them in it. You can usually fight the groups seperately, but if things get bad you can run and stretch them out then pick them off one at a time.
Probably wouldn't work on imp bases unless you can take the at-st out, but it works great on reb bases. Drugs and food are a must. Buffs would work too. Pixie lasts just long enough to clear the base and the downer is gone when it respawns.

If you have good kinetic Ubese *75% + * and some good Doctor buffs, Huurton Huntress on Dant. Low resists, 3500 XP a pop *and 4-6 per lair* decent cash. I used this for Brawler, TKA, Commando... well lots of profs

I just come off of BH and was working on Commando myself. I think I have a decent flamethrower, and because of my extra xp from all the grinding I was able to start commando 2/0/2/0.
The problem I am seeing is, flames result in less xp, but if you don't flame something it takes forever to kill them (because of the big bonus from initial damage). I also noticed that I am getting far less xp then I would if I was using a normale weapon.

Yay.. just got flame single 1 tonight, and noticed the same thing Raptor. 
this is against giant baz's on dath. vuln to heat.
If i use flame single only for the whole fight i get about 2200 exp.
Used a fwg5 spamming body shot 2 i got 3000 exp or so..
using a flamethrower and spamming overcharge shot i got about 2800 exp..
no idea why the flamethrower with overcharge shot vs. the fwg5 got diff. exp. but im guessing the dot isnt counting towards exp when using flame single1.
if i just wanted to make money, this wouldnt matter too much.. but im trying to climb the FT tree, and the loss of exp sucks.
read the first few pages of posts, but didnt see any mention of this problem..
GL out there..
