I have a guildmate who is pretty new with the CU...

I dragged her out to grind with us... but when we got close she launched her Flamethrower...


Pretty soon there where burning pikets and screaming padawans everywhere.


For future grinding, is there any Heavy Weapon that doesnt attack areas?

For 3 years I have tried to find excuses to stay in game but only the expansions offered me what I subscribed for in the first place: A multiplayer Star Wars pve experience with friends around the globe. I found friends but with almost no addition of pve content they dropped out one by one. Now it's my turn.

Your best bet is the rocket launcher or HPBC. RL sems to be bugged last I heard and doesn't use the area effect. HPBC only aggros in a straight line so only bit a positioning is requierd.

ALthou, stratigic positioning and that everyone doesn't use there most high damaging special from the start should do the trick also.

Hmm... i don't see the problem...


Anyways, does the launcher pistol also have an area effect? Otherwhise that one would be first choice, i assume?


Edit: just looked it up, seems like the launcher also has area effect... too bad.

Yeah, kinda difficult to groupgrind with area attacks...
I find it difficult to keep her healed when 8-9 Level 82 pikets find it hillarious to stomp on her after one shot

I used a heavy acid rifle while grinding in a group of jedis and I have not had any problems. The solution is to get one of the jedi's to pull one thecreatures from the lair , then the commando can attack it without any fear of aggroing the others.
