The 3 of us landed on Yavin 4 at the Mining Outpost. The dark sky rolled menacingly to the east as we mounted our bikes to make the 5k track to the Geo Caves. I myself had never been there and was looking forward to seeing this fabled place.
As we neared our objective I drank some brandy and got into my armour. A few Geonosians roamed about outside but were soon dispatched. I called JayJayII (Huurton Stalker), son of JayJay my Huurton Huntress. We walked slowly to the cave entrance, red dots filled my scanner.......oh dear. We made our way in and were attacked by crazed Geonosians. I kept JayJayII (JJ2) back, he would lose health very fast if I attacked with him instantly. So I waded in myself and as the beasts health dropped low I sent JJ2 in, the creature dropped and I got 800XP, wonderful!
Our group moved lower into the caves and came upon 3 Enhanced Kwi, thinking it would be an easy battle I waded in.......big mistake, these buggers are TOUGH! The 3 of use took over 20 minutes to kill them all, and JJ2 got 1000+XP each.
JJ2 seemed to be enjoying himself, he ran happily behind me with only slight damage, which I healed. We opened the first door and made our way further in. A laser blast flew past our heads as an Alert Droideka unrolled behind us. Spinning round me and one of my group attacked it using mind hits, as it's health dropped I sent JJ2 in, another 1200XP! Man this was going well.
Eventually, after dispatching many spiders, Droideka, and Kwi, we arrive at a room. We each speak to a Geonosian scientist who asks us to retrieve some datapad. We fight our way back gathering some amazing CH XP. JJ2 bounced behind me as we made our way to the person we needed to retrieve the pad from. many Droideka and Spiders later we find the scientist's assistant and get what we need.
Heading back we kill yet more Droideka. We spoke to the scientist again and he gives us a code. Leaving the room we're confronted by more of the same and JJ2 wags his stumpy tail (okay he has no tail, but you know what I mean) with excitement. We kill the usualy Spiders and Droideka and head deeper into the caves.
A door opens and behind we see 2 Kwi, 3 Mercenaries and a Enhanced Kliknik, this is going to be hard. We attempt to walk through and not to get aggro but it fails and we end up fighting the whole room. JJ2 runs from creature to creature with glee as their health drops low. The XP gains are high, ranging from 800 to 1800 per kill. This is going great....that was until the next room.............we didn't stand chance. My two team mates died, I was left with JayJayII and a rapidly dropping health bar. I fight the 5 Enchanced Kwi and 2 Droideka as hard as I can, healing myself but it's fruitless.....I die and JayJayII stands over my corpse.
We did go back and make our way inside but JayJayII got stuck on a wall and I couldn't get him off. I stored him and we made our way all the way down. We never did see the Ackley, it was camped so we made our way out as fast as possible with LOADS of beasts following us. We never did get out alive, but it was alot of fun!
Well worth a visit if you're buffed and want some fun.
*edit*
It was late so I don't recall everything. I know we needed door codes which we got. Shame we never saw the Ackley!

Speaking of xp, hehe back in the days of ppl camping at the enterence, I masterd CH in about 25-30 hours. I'd get 1k xp about every 30 seconds.

Its a shame SWG has incorperated camping. I guess I should have expected it since they are under the same umbrella as EQ.

Great story there Bunneh, as always with your hunting write-ups! I really should get Kher to go there one day... so many fun things to do, so few hours per day
