A little correction. By lines I think he is refering to the branches of the trees. There are 4 TREES in total and each of them has 4 branches.

I just finished the Kommando 4-0-0-0 / Thermals grind, April 15. In a 3 hour buff expect to get 3 Kaps. This includes the time it take to go & get medical buff & Entertainer buff. Also the time to refressh through the terminal to get Giant Baz Nitch missions. Also the time to travel to the village and turn in the xp. I explain this kuz, if I simply said it takes 1 hour to Kap, some one would insist it only takes 30 - 45 min. They shave off the incidentals, like travel & wait times. There is also the time you waste fighting off Night Sisters / Singing Mountain clan, and Rancors. Also when you arrive at your wp and find another grinder finishing it. I stand 5-6m from lair and toss 3 stacks of thermals (15 individual), then I jump on bike and head to 2nd lair leaving 2 or more survivable mobs to encourage lair refresh. I Toss 3 new stacks, then head back to 1st lair that has re-spawned its 1st & 2nd waves. Again I toss 3 stacks, this time I finish off remaining mobs without grenades. To draw out 3rd wave carefully take lair down to half its HAM, and go afk. Wait for all 5 spawns to agro on you, then kome out of afk and throw 2 stacks. Finish off with out grenades and remaining baz nitch & lair. Bellow is a list of Lair #, stacks, & kombat xp you kan get per wave. I didn’t use power ups, and a factory krate of 25 stacks of 5 kost me anywhere from 35k – 75k. So 19 stack per kap, and 7350K for 6 trees of kombat or 73.5 kaps. This is about 56 krates if all goes perfectly, 60 should be safe.
1st 3 50k
2nd 3 50k
1st 3 50k
1st 2 25k

PS: Spelling words with a K is part of my role-play, and is done so on purpose and not a spelling error.

This thread caught my eye today.
I know someone who has had 3 trees of FS skills taken away by SOE. Apparently milking lairs in this way, with grenades, has caught their attention (I assume he was reported by another player). No other circumstances involved - just simply employing these techniques, and he got 3 trees deleted. Rather harsh in my view. It seems all you need to do is to be reported!
Makes you think.......

I just want to point out that while there may be enough time left for a dedicated grinder...you can not bank that much XP. I believe you cap at 1.225 million (maybe slightly more) for FS Reflex and FS Combat...so you can bank one line/branch for each tree.

Cannot be doen without unlocks first. You will have to wait 6, 3 week cycles to unlock your trees which = not enough time.

No way I can believe this one...a player who employs this method isn't breaking any rules.
