I used my Cowardly Gurreck and attacked Gaping Spiders, Rhoa Kwi, Bolmas and Kamurith. I just went about 1000M north of the Trade Outpost on Dath and stalked around the area. I probably got about 50K-100K of xps for each buff session. I grinded out my 4 tier 4 boxes this way. I didn't want to do Rancor hunts because my main weapon is an LLC and Rancors have high resistances to electricity.

You can still do rancors; just switch to a DRX6 Carbine or the ol' scatter pistol; both do acid damage which tears rancors up.

I've taken to Voritor Hunters. I use a Lv. 18 Mottled Wrix on them, and get 980 xp per kill....can't remember how many there usually are in a lair. For some reason, pets that are lower or higher than Lv. 18 for me don't give as much xp.

Another Level 18 Mottled Wrix fan


The 2nd time I mastered Creature Handler (my current CH char) - was a few months before NPC specials came back in.


I remember trying the Narglatch cave (love their look, my favourite cat types), various mobs on dant (inc those lovely xp Slinkings) and mobs on Dathomir.


Various Nightsisters was what I mastered Creature Handler on (got between 1-2k on most) by sending in Malachi (as I named him) near the end of the Nightsister's life that was in question.


It was a fun time and not a grind for me as I was enjoying levelling swordsman at the same time too.

This is not entirely true. As has been dicovered in another port the xp has been changed.


For example on Pickets on Dant I get the same xp using a lvl 11 creature as I do using a lvl 22. But if I use a higher pet it goes down and if I used a lower pet is ALSO goes down.


I can't explain it but it is a fact that others have confirmed.

Level 19 natural Mamien vs Enraged Rancors = about 1500xp per kill

Or at least it was when I re-mastered a couple of months ago.

The experience you receive for CH is determined by other combat abilities you have. I noticed that as I rose back up in the CH lines I didn't gain less CH exp per kill. However, when I trained my pikeman abilities, I got less CH exp per kill.


Also, you can no longer use more than one pet at a time to get more exp, since the exp is auto-split between pets when you have more than one called out. So if you are trying to grind CH exp it makes no sense to have more than one pet out at a time. Your best bet is to call the lowest level pet you have that can withstand the grind and run with that.

I've been doing rancor with my lvl 10 BE razor cat, gives 1k xp. BUT, here is a thought.... You find a few people (relatively new) take pet(s) out, and have them follow and guard the person. And there you go As long as they take care of the pets, you got instant xp. I'm not sure if it works, but I'm going to try it as soon as I get high enough in CH. And also, while they are using your pets, you can go and grind whatever you feel like Plz tell me if this does work for you.
