Thread: Everyone converting to commando

Anyone grinding to get a Jedi and in their right mind would convert to commando. I know I did. Got 4/0/0/0 just for this reason. Making out combat XP thrice in a buff session??? That's awesome. Only problem I have is finding nades, but that can be solved with a few posts on the trade forums. I just hope the devs don't realize how much easier this makesgrinding for a Jedi and change it so that nades give grenade XP or something gay. Seriously, I'd venture to say that you can get a Jedi in half the work with commando.

At100k FS xp per hour, you can gain the total grinding xp in 6 days! (yes, i know you have to wait for the phases, etc, but you can do the full tree in a day of throwing grenades.)


To me it's broken, and a sad commentary for the real commando's in this profession...

A question relating to grenades, is it worth mastering commando to be able to use protons or is there a better type to use? (or one that is just about as good) also, what do you all consider to be the best xp/time thing to kill? any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

That's all our great profession is, a tool to help people grind Jedi.


Wonderful.


I'm depressed now.

sorry, thats not my fault but i truly like the commando profession and had it before i knew about the grenades issue for fs grinding. I just think its truly ridiculous about the 30:1 ratio for most types of weapons xp, and with the trees requiring as much fs xp as an elite profession, it is justcrazy the hundreds and hundreds of missions you would need to run to master a tree off straight weapons xp. Besides, grenades are impossible to find. Weaponsmiths refuse to make them and if they do they are sold for about 1k or more per toss...

Enjoy buying all those grenades, LMAO. See, this is why player Jedi should never have been in the game. I hate the fact that this profession is now just a stepping stool for Jedi wannabees.


Don't get me wrong, I love Jedi and one day I will desire a lightsaber of my very own, but they never should have been put in the game. I bet the devs will be nerfing grenade xp very soon.....

is it worth mastering commando to be able to use protons







IMO I would say that it isn't worth mastering the entire prof to be able to use protons. You can get 4/0/0/0 in a couple hours (if that) since it requires only combat XP. The rest of the profession seems like a B to learn. But I would still like to know how good proton grenades are. The thermals that I've been using are about 900-1800 damage. What are protons?

i find it annoying how people are doing this, i am master commando and yes i do use grenades to get combat xp for FS skills, (not that it happens often due to lack of nades) but i didnt do commando specifically for that, i love this proffesion

I have to agree, I got 4/4/0/0 commando so I could use rockets in base takedowns, and be able to set power overload, and thermals are my only defense agains spellweavers and the like, I got caught by one today, took me 200k of grenades to kill it. /frown


CSR to audri. camping jedi, throwing down bases, scanners, and turrents at first sighn of jedi, you and friends taking mission after mission on one jedi who was KSing your krayts ect, is griefing and not allowed
