You are missing something, most people have trouble SOLO or at least not in a huge group. For the most part just them and their animal trying to level. Whether or not what you stated above is possible, I don't think your numbers exactly right tho, most people with leveling problems aren't part of a big group. Yes in a group CH XP comes much faster, but if you can't or don't want to join a group you're screwed. In a group you can just tell your pet to take 1 **edit** off of everything in the battle and you'll get a TON of XP with little damage to your pet. However if you are trying solely to use your skill as a CH and your creatures you're in for a long haul of suffering. A CH should be able to rely on their skill as a CH and their creatures for XP, doing it this way should not be an insane notion for a profession named Creatures Handler), and a CH should not HAVE to be in a group to get decent XP.

Great, another newbie that thinks Sharnaffs are better then sliced bread.
2 hours later you'll be MCH and then what? Cool stuff,you just mastered a prof in a day.
Seriously, who cares?

I know I am being rude, but I think you are deliberately trying to deceive us... and why? What pet did you use? You started a Novice CH, so obviously you had a CL 12 pet. And since you did not take time to shop for new pets, you are a 3-3-3-4 CH with a CL 12 pet? I readjusted my 3-3-0-4 to 2-4-0-4 several weeks ago and I am still getting exp on kills. I don't think there is a CH on the boads that has leveled recently that believes you. What is your motivation? "I want you guys to think I am great and you guys are stupid"? You posted no usable information and waisted our time.

Right..so here I am..sittin' in the cantina..chiilin with a wookie and few ladies. I'm thinking to myself "Gee what should i do now?". So i think for awhile..then i say to myself "Ryuketsu you ol dog you...go for ch!"....then i also think to myself "Ooo people said cH takes nearly the longest out of any tree to lvl up!"...but i say...bah I'm gonna do it coz those damn baby nuna's are just too cute, even if you do cook them for Nuna chicken wings later. So Yesterday i take up CH. Well i better get started i say to myself. SO I'm on corellia and i join a sharnaff group. Now to make a short story even shorter..i played about5 hours yesterday and oh about 3 hours today so 8 hours all togethor...I am currently 3-3-3-4 in ch...in 8 hours...why in gods name do you peopel say its hard? If anything it is the EASIEST tree there is! I get 480 ch xp for a regular sharnaff and 620xp for a bull one. I honestly don't see why you people think its so hard lol or am i just really missing something??

8hrs to get to CH ? ( 3-3-3-4 )
I would honestly like you to post exactly what you did in order to get this.
Even accounting for time spent finding mishs, finding a trainer at each stage, and finding a decent BE or wild pet to use.
I cant see you getting that far up CH in 8 hours, unless they have seriously changed the CH xp or unless theres some exploit the devs havnt yet jumpd up and down on.
Im sure many holo grinders as well as retired MCH would love to know as well, as it will make all their lifes easier when they want to come back to the MCH fold.
If you cant give specifics of course we will have to asume its a pack of lies or an insane exageration.
Nothing personal

Tarnblade, I mistakenly stared you 1 instead of a 5. The board GODS would not let me take it back so I am making a public apology to you...

Before the December Patch, it was easy to get CH XP, especially if you could pull two pets out, because you'd get double the XP.
It's still not that tough if you can find a group doing high level missions that is willing to put up with a Novice CH who is collecting their share for basically sitting around and sending their pet in at the last second.
As another person stated, if you have TKA or Fencing or Pistoleer or a Combination of these, then it's also not that tough do to high Damage andDefense Mods so that you could do most of the damage and again, send your pet in at the last second.
Not every CH has a strong Combat Backup Profession so it took us considerably longer.

"Let me guess, your either TKA or Fencer?"
I could solo Sharnaffs early in pikeman....they're really not that hard...

Notice the lack of communication from him now. I love these people who post an outragous claim and then never post again on the thread. Just stop posting on this, because it really is rediculous. And he is obviously just trolling.
We need some mods that will actually pay attention and get rid of these dumb threads that just take up space.

8 hours my **s.
Here is a post from his world trade board that was edited 11 days ago....
I just became a novice CH and my over all max lvl is 12. I hear cowardly gurrcats are good for novice ch'ers but any pet thats decently good thats lvl12 or under i would be interested in! Could you please leave the pets stats and your contact name in-game so i can get ahold of you! Or you can e-mail my in-game name Ryuketsu. Thank you!

What he suggests is impossible. The travel time alone from nest to nest makes it so. It's a nice story though.

Well even though I dont believe him in the first place, I also don't believe in power leveling. A person should experience the game as it really is and all the verious environments. He experienced nothing, he learned nothing and now coming to the boards to teach us.

Frankly I don't believe him either. I started CH 6 months ago. I stopped working on it to do BE first. I stopped at 3333 and was like that for months. After finally saturating my server with all the pets I make, I decided to finish up and be a CH like I originally wanted. So I was power grinding and it took forever to get any xp. And I don't have squat for fighting skills since I am a MBE, so I enlisted the help of 2 Jedi in my guildto hunt enraged, and enraged bull rancors last night. They were cutting through these guys at an average of 10-15 secs each. They were moving so fast that I couldnt harvest all of the meat from them and sometimes couldn't get my pet to attack them before they downed one. Well 6 hours later I got 240k total of xp. And that was a fast pace. So I can't do this math this guy is claiming. I think he just needs attention.
