Dancer Archive

Honestly, why do you imagine we would know numbers like that off the top of our heads? Or at all? I'm not flaming you, I'm just saying that probably the only person who'd know the answer to that question is someone who, like you, wanted to grind it as fast as possible, and most of us here aren't into that.

You may have more luck on the buffbot forums. I'd ask there.

Oh!

I misunderstood your question, I guess, you're already a master and going for Jedi.

You may wish to try the Jedi forums, I'm sure someone thought of using entertainers that way. But from all reports, doing it with dancing/music is probably the slow way. I think it's much faster grinding experience for Jedi doing combat or doctor, and you'll actually make some money doing it that way.

You won't find a lot of people here grinding for Jedi. They did everything they could to block entertainers from enjoying the force sensitive additions to the game. They even admitted it and said we needed to respec to be a Jedi, so you may indeed run into some ruffled feathers. I think there are a few folks trying for Jedi though, so I'll let them try and answer ya.

I know I will be flamed for this.

I am thinking about having another char watch me and have them tend wound for mind wounds. At master how long would it take me to max at 450k dancing xp and 250 healing.

So, I have some (limited) experience trying this, and let me say first off that it's very very slow.
First off, in your question, you mention using /tendwound, but you don't mention where the wounds would be coming from. There wouldn't be any wounds to tend, so I assume you mean /tenddamage.
And /tenddamage gives you I believe 5 focus/willpower wounds, IIRC, which are immediately healed along with the 2 BF you get. This gives you a miniscule amount of xp, and very slowly (/tenddamage has to wait for the 'you can heal someone again' timer).
You do get more wounds per /tenddamage once you get higher than a certain amount of BF. This would mean you could get higher wounds in a camp, since you can't heal BF there and it'd eventually build up. However, you're still going at a pretty slow rate, and now you're not in the ent group in a cantina for when those raids finish (or pilots are downed) and you can get 100s of xp per tick.
Finally, for the Jedi grind, almost every other xp choice will go much much more quickly.
So, in conclusion, I don't suggest it. I don't have the numbers on how long it would take you to max out the xp, but it's a long long time.

(As for those wondering where my limited experience comes from.. my knowledge of the interaction of the /tenddamage thing comes from some guy who came into the cantina and started /tenddamaging a dancer in the group I was in. My further knowledge of the BF and such comes because my up-and-coming ranger alt has novice medic to help him out, and forgot to buy stim-b's before heading out one time early on in his career (without the inorganic materials needed for crafting stim-a's).)
