Well, that was good. I accidently posted before getting to type any text. At any rate...


I had a great time grouping with a bunch of Jedi today for some grinding. My CL is 57. I was able to use my pets and my bowcaster (I'm a wookiee) to great effect. We were fighting 80ish creatures via missions. I tested a prowling gurreck, arachne webmaster, arachne hatchling and merek harvester. All gave similar damage, in the 150 range, and I was getting awesome experience... anywhere from 2k-6k+. I hit a 200k cap, but the XP kept counting off. I'm not sure if it actually gives it to me after I spend the first 200k or not.


I plan on respeccing my character from BE to rifleman. I guess I decided I don't want to be gimped CL-wise. At CL 57 I can fight 60-70's pretty well with justthe Marksman rifle tree,but Iwant to be able to wear armor, have rifleman specials and be more PVP viable... just in case I want to have some fun with GCW. So that's the route I'm going to go.


All in all, I'm happy with my first grouping experience. I was doing more damage with my bowcaster and pet than the Jedi were. The game just keep getting better. It makes it much easier to overlook the bugs.

(Yes, I'm aware my sig is incorrect. I'll change it after the respec window ends.)

I have also had similar pvp experience and see the game getting better and better every day. I respec to Master BH/ master ch/ and ranger with track 3. I got BH because have always wanted to master that profession and with master ch can still have ranger track 3. I have not lost a duel yet and feel that creature handler will be even better as the game continues to recieve hot fixes and updates.

On a note about the xp, since it takes 1 mil to master Creature handler nowadays, I'd say that the cap has risen quite a bit, to at least 1 mil, possibly a lot more if the new caps follows pre-cu cap limits, which is x2 the xp it took to get your highest box.





They wanted the fish back. How mean! =((

Yes, the XP needed for CH is more, but on average you're also getting twice the XP, if not more, when you group. I know a lot of us like to solo (me included), but if you want to make CH in a timely matter it's probably best to find a group.


Thanks for the offer Sirus. I rarely go hunting anymore since it's unnecessary. I'm all specced out.


It was nice to get out and try grouping and seeing how my pets fare. They didn't break a sweat, but then again I had 7 Jedi holding aggro. lol I was still able to pull aggro myself quite frequently. It helped me make my determination that maybe I should take on a combat profession to complement CH. I suppose I'll make my credits mining in space instead of that BE profession I thought I wanted.


Back to the pets. All of them performed admirably. I noticed that the prowling gurreck seems to have a fast health regen rate. I found that each pet was pretty much the same damage-wise. Until the specials get fixed there won't be much distinction between them. I'm still waiting on my blood-frenzied boar wolf to grow up. I can't wait to test him out. I just know he's gonna eat 'em up at level 68.
