Another way to get easy and fast xp as well as cash and faction points (for Imperials only sorry).


Go to the imperial Oasis by Mos Espa (sorry no WP at this time, maybe someone has it handy and can post it).



Go to the terminal unarmed (no weapon in hand)


choose to easy missions under 150 meters from terminal in any direction (west preferably however someone may kill it before you get there going that way).


Run to the mission and equip LP.


Target nearest mob and use Kip up shot. 1 shot = dead in most cases, may have to use 2 shots.


repeat till all NPC rebels are dead.


Kill base.


normally 3 to 5 NPC's present. Each NPC will award anywhere from 120-240 HW xp, and 12 Faction pts each. Killing the base will award 40 HW xp and 12 FP for killing the base and 12 FP for doing the mission and award an avg of 800 credits.


Repeat process.


You can do about 20-30 missions an hour.


Each mission avg about:


500xp (low side)


60 FP


800 credits



So if you do on the low side of 20 missions an hour you gain


10000 xp


1200 FP


16000 credits



To gain1 mil xpfor tier 3 of Commando, you will need to do this for about 100 hours.


I do well over 20 missions and sometimes the avg is much higher and I wind up with 200-300K a day in xp.



It is a matter of going into full throttle and just getting the job done. And you gain in 3 areas we all want, XP, Faction and Credits.


a few tips


1) Go overt (see that red dot running at you trying to get TEF to kill you because you killed a Rebel NPC)


2) Do NOT use pets, they will kill FP and XP and if you grp with pets you get no loot either.


3) Do your own missions as a common courtesy.


4) Even tho if you equip the Flame Thrower and can get the general missions that pay 5K credits, it is not worth the time as you will not get much xp or FP, because we can not solo such a spawn and have to rely on faction pets to help us. Grouping is even worse for us, but that is your choice.

ohh yeah i just remembered something about my method, why i use it... when you kite 12 squalls that is 12*1871xp=22452per trip, it only takes a lil bit of time to kill those, and if two rocky shelters are nearby each other like they usually are you can run trips between the two very very quickly witht that method you can make between 200k-250k and hour which is well pretty dang good.... heck at 250k an hour it would only take about what 15 hours to master? or somewhere around there.... the only reason i havent mastered commando since that patch for the lp giving hvy weapons xp is well i only play maybe 2-3 hours a day and it takes a good hour to find the stupid nests.... so pretty much i only try to lvl one skill per day.... but anyway being able to go from novice to master in 15 hours is a heck of a lot quicker than ivoni's 80 hours

What I did was take 2 missions in the same direction roughly the same distance and bring a medic/doc/cm friend with me. I would run to one mission kill the bunnies, then run to the other (typically under 200m) and by the time I killed those the others would respawn, rinse and repeat over and over.

Boring but it's fast and efficient.

bah, i dont ever run the missions.... cause well once you shoot them they only spawn a max of 4 squalls... it turns out that the squalls that spawn from a rocky shelter in stead of a leviasquall warren will have up to 6 and them 12 after shooting the lair, cept the rocky shelters that spawn the leviasqualls are usually 2000+ meters from the town and are hard to find.... but when you do find one there is always another right near by and you can get crazy xp off of them .... my only problemis i have killed so many leviasqualls that i am going crazy now!

Yeah those bunnies are getting brutal. I haven't even been shooting the lairs though. I've been following Ivoni's advice and letting the two bunnies chase me until the lair is no longer on the map (128). By the time I kill them both, the lair has reset, and there are 2 more bunnies there to slay I found a nice route on Rori that leads me from the lair, up some cliffs, to a nice flat area that I can run circles around the bunnies in. Been shooting using the same lair for hours now and haven't even shot at it yet hehe.

You don't run the missions? Why waste the free money if you are going to be grinding anyway? That's just silly.
