Please help me find out where to find a place to go holo hunting? thanks

advance

ohei

Just my two cents here... but if you really need income you can do this:

Keep an eye on your server boards and find out what the best resource harvested from Creatures is at a given time (I usually on worry about the adventure planets because once you hit Master the other planets are boring).

Head to said planet and hunt everything (getting 2 missions at a time but killing anything else that applies on the way) that drops the particular resource (i.e. Endor Herbivore Meat for example).

If the resource is truly a great resource on your server at that time you will have many Artisans paying upwards of 30-40 credits / unit for Hide or Meat that has great stats. Just last night I hunted on Endor with another Commando for about 3 hours and had 5K of Endor Herbivore Meat in my pack that is worth about 200K on my server (they are paying 40:1 for it right now).

I was getting this for a Master Doctor in my PA but you see my point I think. Each mission you get will pay you between 8K-10K and on top of it you will be making a lot off of the harvested organics.

Good luck.

Holos aren't currently worth as much as they were...I find commando's are best suited for obtaining the hard to find, highly desired items...like skill mods.

I make my money from hunting for skill mods on various planets like endor, talus and such...many of the caves have NPC's that drop nice mods (like Aakuans on Talus...which you can just run missions for them and get the same drops)...

I then take these mods and sell them to different folks who I know need them or via an auction. Our hard work pays off...my last auction netted over 5 million...Heck, recently I saw an Aakuan Skill ring go for 1.5 million by itself on a trade forum. We can take on the big game...we can get the big loot...we can get paid...lol

also, even if its a bit slower, harvest and sell resources. theres lots of crafters out there that always need hide/bone/meat. and we can really nice resources =D

Just get buffed, get a nice suit of Ubese armor, a swoop bikeand take your flame thrower out to Dantooine.If you can get in a group grab seething bol lairs, if not grab pickets or regular bols. Run out target one, flame 2, flame 1, target next, flame 2, flame 1, target next, flame 2, flame 1, hit lair twice with flame 2, repeat process with next spawn. I made 120k in an hour on picket lairs.

If you are going after resources, same as above, but rancors on dathomir. Bring a rocket launcher to pull with though.

1 buff session hunting with a master CH,I got 13k in resources, because we didn't get a chance to harvest all the corpses, and I only have novice scout.

if you have any available skill points pick up novice smuggler (commandoes already have prerequisite skills) and slicing 1 ( also feign death from dirty fighting 1 if you have skill points ) . next get buffed and head to lok . get nym missions. these missions pay 9k each unsliced or 14 k if you slice the terminal . each mission only requires you to kill 2 npc's and they often drop weapon enhancers or skill mods which you can sell or use. if you use a speederbike you can complete two missions in under ten minutes with ease, so thats 28k + loot every ten minutes at virtually no risk of getting slayed. last but not least the music on lok rules

Since commando's don't really have a way to make money like any other profession, I'd suggest doing Faction missions, and selling the faction points for 100 credits per faction that person recieves.

Devs! Commando's need money in missions, give them tuffer missions anf higher pay over other professions.

Maybe my demands aren't as high as other people's, but I seem to make plenty of money just by running destroy missions. I am in a Player City on Talus, and I'm just a 1-0-2-0 Commando, but I run huf dun missions or Rebellion missions for 4-5K each. At 8-10K per visit to the mission terminal, I make more than enough to buy my weapons (we'll miss you Chong!) and other equipment, pay for my house, and any other expenses that come up. I'm not holo-shopping, so I don't need hundreds of thousands of credits, but what kind of income are most people wanting?

LOL , master commando and having trouble getting an income? Dude run missions out the butt, sell everything you get, and set up harvestors and sell your resources for 2-3/cpu. I made master commando in 4 days on yavin hunting anglers. At 10-11k for a single mission, run 10 a day and you make 100-110k a day. Takes 1-1.5 hrs. Run reb/imp missions -i get 6-9k a mission. Basically a commando is a go out and kll everything profession, dont expect to sit around to earn an income. As a master commando you can also dabble in artisan and make things to sell.

but i found it best to run high paying missions, get buffed, bring many stims, and spice. Then set out to tear up a planet. Harvest resources which you can sell, example being good avian meat to a doc. Some docs will pay 4-20cpu for good avian meat. Collect whooly hide and sell to armorsmiths. If you are just a commando, spend 15 skill points on artissan, grab a survey tool and find minerals needed, like ore, steel, copper, energy, etc. Sell them not at a high price so it takes forever to sell, but at 2-4cpu.10 BER10's on an 80% spot for 7 days is like 600-800k resources. 600-800k times 3cpu= well you do the math.

Auction off armor attachment, clothing attachments, holos, crystals, tusken items, aaukan items, etc.........

Commando is the most versitial profession, and you can do so much with left over skill points.

Find a ranger, a medic/doc, and another commando and you can basically run 20k missions all day. Most i made in a days time doing missions was 2.1 million, doing 15-25k missions. opportunity is there--but you have to work hard being a commando. Weapons, armor, buffs, and spice are commandos best friends-get good ones, keep them fixed up. And you will do just fine.

happy hunting.

Ooopppssssssss

Should have read your post about holos lol. Thought you were just looking at an income. Ignore the above post then

or...... you could just go to endor and do regular missions for like 15k..... they take like15 minutes each.... sooo 15,000 x 4 = 60k usuallly they go faster.

plus you get great xp from em
