Commando Archive

Just would like to know, otherwise im grinding through chef for the next few days. Yeah thats right, I'm a commando chef.

This is what i do to get hw exp and i've never heard anyone else suggest it which surprises me... i'm at about 60k hw exp and i've only been commando for a few days... take missions for things you know you can kill with a pistol no problem... then get your opening shots off with flamethrower... once the creature gets to you if your doing ok damage with the flamethrower keep using it... if your health gets to low to survive much longer OR you miss (the later is more likey to happen first) whip out the pistol and finish it... after you whipe out all the mobs kill the lair with the flamethrower... if anything spawns... stop and repeat part 1... just make sure you use the flamethrower on the lair and only the flamethrower... i find myself getting upwards of 4-6k hw exp a mission trip (2 missions).... does anyone else do this?

I'll give that a shot as soon as our weapons show up on Flurry.

**edit** you SOE, I figured you would have your stuff straight from EQ.

jara calm urself,why get mad...u can always reach a state of insanity just like me.anger isnt the answer. burning stuff is. BUT I CANT!, my flamethrower misses more than commando has bugs!..ok thats enough

Find some crazed durnis on Corellia, and kite them with the flamethrower. I usually get about 10k xp per spawn (321 xp per crazed durni).

I usually got a small little good group that I play with. I use my flamethrower and grenades playing my gimpy little roll on high level creatures. They let me shoot away with my crap gun so I can actually get some experience.

having been a commando for a week and still not even having a launcher pistol i am no expert, but what i did on marksman was bleed some creature with one gun then switch to the gun i was working on. the bleed weapon doesnt get the xp only the weapon you actually attack with. i imagine if i could get a flame thrower or any heavy weapon for that matter. it should work.

Well my server and it apears others are missing resoruces needed to make these weapons (Launcher pistol, flame thrower, heavy acid rifle) so lots of people have 0 HW xp still. It has been 3 weeks as a novice commando and i'm still waiting for the resources to show up or have the BIG PATCH come out that fixes the launcher pistol. My guess is the launcher pistol patch will happen first.

i hear about this "mega patch" and i really want to come on out cause i hear the HAR maybe partially fix when it is out... but i can't find anywhere of an ETA for the patch... does anyone know?

My roomate is a BH and the light lightening cannon is very similar in damage and speed to the flame thrower. We spent a considerable amount of time on dathomire but didn't use the exploit of crawling into lairs other than on a few occassions to see what the heck everyone was doing crawling around.

If I could go back in time I'd crawl into those lairs and use the flame thrower, I assume it would get 3800 XP too. **edit**, I can't believe that didn't occur to me. We could all be millionares and master commandos!
