Okay, I have an old HAR and skill level II. I was on Dathomir with some friends fighting Rancors and I thought this be a great time to try out the HAR. Well, it wasn't much fun. It was VERY slow and most of the melee folks way out damaged me. I am a TK also so I pulled out the VKs and stated b17ch slapping (granted I am 3 boxes from master TK so it isn't a great comparison).
XP with HAR = 2500
XP with VK = 4800
So here are the questions. 1) Is this a case that, like the FT, the HAR should not be used until level III? 2) Has anyone seen post patch HARs - are they any better damage or speedwise?
One other note, I actually had to watch my mind pools spaming Acid Single 1. I'm not used to doing that with my flame thrower. I vote we call the heavy acid rifle the flamer junior. I doubt it will ever step out from the shaddow of it's daddy the flame thrower. 
Regards, Drew

As much as the HAR sux... I get more xp useing it at Geno Labs fighting Crazed Geno's. Im a master commando but still gaining combat xp to help out friends getting app's. Granted I only do about 2-3k damage with the HAR butthey are vuln to acid with AP1 so most of the damage gets through. 9-14k hits on them with a FT 40% heat resist AP1 only adds up to be about 1000 total damage probly alittle less, where the HAR is about 2k damage. Im useing a 3.9 speed 800 damage HAR.
