How do i get to master commando quickly?
Go up the flame tree as it is our only saving grace(and not really after nerfs). Get to flame single 2 and then go and buy a bunch of grenades. Use the grenades to kill lairs, you will get close 3k combat exp a piece. Also another nice trick is to have a Master CH, friend his pets to you, thereby giving you command over them. You can easily make master in under 2 to 3 days. Note:You will never use the grenades again after this. Now will you use any of the other weapons/abilities you obtained for master commando. Flame Thrower is it.

Okay yes grenades give you full combat exp when you use them. But to get the full amount for lairs you will need to use only grenadeson them since if you use other weapons it will greatly reduce your exp award. 3k would be off a lair with creatures that give you 3k exp same for if you go after creatures that give 4k exp the lair would give you 4k exp. Ideal range to throw your grenades at the lairs is around 20 to 35m you may miss once or twice but gives you a bit of breathing space.
While we are on the subject of grenades here is some more information about them.
Ideal range for grenades is with in their blast radius so if you use themat close range you will be hurt but sometimes you can dodge the dmg but most of the time this is not the case. Dmg you take is less than the inital blast but more than PvP dmg. I use proton grenades with dmg of 1k to 3k and when I got caught in the blast I took around 1k of dmg.
At this time grenades have one purpose and that is to fast track your combat exp in any other situation they are very usless, unless you want to show your friends some flashy effects 
Is that really 3k of Combat Xp or is it a typo? If so Ive been doing it all wrong
Question why is the commando prof like an episode of the simpsons ?
ie ;
Monday morning in the offices of the SWG development team the new head of development Montgomery Burns talks to his assistant ...
Mr Burns : Bah, I have had more letters from those bleeding heart liberals the "Commandos", whining about how under powered they are.
Smithers : But sir they encompass all the aspects of you and your mighty prowess.
Mr Burns : Yes well, be that as it may, I will have to do something for them they do pay their bills after all.
Smithers : Then we can put the professor on it right away
Mr Burns : Are you mad man, I said we would do something for them, I didn't say what. Montgomery Burns bows down to no man ! They said they wanted a fix and we will fix them good .... Muhahahah.
Smithers : Ah then the man you want is Homer Simpson sir.
Mr Burns : Simpson aye ? never heard of the fellow is he good.
Smithers : He has nearly blown your beloved nuclear plant up on several occasions.
Mr Burns : He will do just fine ... Excellent !
Later that day at the desk of commando development head Homer Simpson ...
Homer : Right team Mr burns has put us in charge of this important task and we need to make a good job of it !
Dev Team : Err sir we are over here that's a card board cut out of Han Solo that your talking to ...
Homer : That's exactally the kind of looser attitude that will make us fail in this task, that's why I am going to take charge of sorting out the Flamer & the heavy acid rifle myself, you guys sort out the heavy weapons and Han you sort out the grenades !
Dev Team : shakes head
Five minuets later in Homers work shop after a barrage of banging and soaring noises ...
Homer : There we have it the New Flame Thrower ....
Dev Team : But sir that's worse than the old one, it still fires as slowly and dose way less damage and the burning affect is next to useless now !
Homer : Doh !
Five minuets later in Homers work shop after a barrage of banging and soaring noises ...
Homer : Eeeek, Arrrr !!!!!!!
Dev Team : Sir are you alright in there ?
Homer comes bounding out of the work shop covered in flames. The Dev team rush to the fire blankets and douse him out.
Homer : Stupid, flammable fuel ! Lucky those blankets were here.
Dev Team : They are standard health and safety issue sir.
Homer : Are they in the game ?
Dev Team : No, but ....
Homer : No Buts, teehee I said butts, put them in the game now !!! And while your at it I want every thing to be flame retardant.
Dev Team : Your retarded.
Homer : Right off to work on the Acid Gun ....
Dev Team : Sir before you go, what should the HAM costs be on the heavy weapons ?
Homer : Mummmm Hammm, More Hamm.
Dev Team : You got it sir more HAM costs on the heavy weapons.
Homer : Humm let me look at this Acid thingy
Homer hits a cardboard cut out of a storm trooper over the head.
Homer : Right didn't go through that, no armour perching, didn't even leave a mark, so no DOT eiter.
Dev Team : But Sir that's a feather duster, the Acid rifle is over there ... Sir ?
Homer : Zzzzz, Zzzzz, Zzzzz, mumm more HAM ....

A. Pick another combat profession in addition to Commando. For example, TKA, Rifleman, Pistoleer/Smuggler, Fencer, CH, Carbineer, etc
for the Launcher Pistol.
