Thread: Is it just me or does something need to be done with the med xp conversion/cap???

I know the path to becoming a jedi should not be easy. Heck I am the first one to say it should not be overnight.

As 1.2 million FS xp is needed for a complete branch, with only using medical xp as a main source, it would take 12 million medical xp to train just one branch in the heightened senses tree of the FS skills. Something needs to be done about this. Either raise the cap from 80k to something like 800k (still only 80k FS xp mind you) or the conversion rate should be lowered to say 5---->1. Again, this isn't because I think jedi should be easy to get, but rather because 12 million medical xp with only a 80k cap is more than excessive to most everyone you speak with. Also, if Agent001 or the combat medic/medic correspondents could forward this to the appropriate dev for suggestion/concerns, it would be appreciated
If it's capped at 80k, doesn't that just mean more trips to the conversion guy? You're not actually crippled, you just have to make more trips.

Its justt you, we JUST had this argument. The result was this. Play the game, go up in whatever xp you want to convert. If your a jedi grinder anyways and a master dr. all you have to do is buy a non ch pet, pull it out, buff the hell out of it, put it away and repeat until you cap. YOU NEVER EVEN HAVE TO LEAVE THE VILLAGE TILL U GET UR TREE DONE.
nothing tedius about it, if ur a quick grinder ur gonna go the quickest way anyways. No one cares, if all you are is a master dr and your going for jedi, u gotta be kidding me. you MUST have some other prof to be capping in.
get over it, we already have one of the better conversion rates, u know what would happen if they raised the cap? THEY WOULD LOWER THE CONVERSION RATE AND SCREW YOU OVER ANYWYAS. stop whining. get over it.

I'm just curious. If you buff a pet multiple times do you get xp after the intial buff? If you buff a regular person a second time and the power of the buff doesn't exceed the first one you don't get any additional xp so I don't thinkcontinuous rebuffs are going to be exploitable by anyone.
Read what i wrote, you.... ok heres the steps for the lamen
1-MASTER DR
2-BUY A NON CH PET
3-PULL PET FROM DATA PAD
4-BUFF IT
5-PUT IT AWAY AND ITS BUFFS DISAPEAR
6-PULL PET FROM DATA PAD
7-BUFF IT
8-PUT PET AWAY AND BUFFS DISSAPEAR
9-PULL PET FROM DATA PAD
10-BUFF IT
11-PUT PET AWAY AND BUFFS DISSAPEAR......
cant get any clearer than that
And just a side note, you say just play the game to master the tree. You let me know when you hit 12 million medical xp (with a cap at 80k mind you) just by casually playing the game and making a few trips to the village

Zero no one is whining...yes I want to make jedi, but that doesn't mean I am a jedi grinder. And for your information Zero(since you seem to be lacking) to gain senses xp (the tree medical xp converts to) you are not able to use any combat xp to convert to this type. The only other types of xp that converts to senses is scout, entertainer, merchant and that sort. Secondly, I never said I wanted to make learning my skill branch easy/fast, so buffing a pet isn't the solution. What is the solution is raising our xp cap to something more reasonable (which btw would do nothing to the xp rate)

Good points, and no, since im not force sensitive yet i did NOT know that there were limitations to the type of xp that can be converted to each branch.
But as for me, for the harder branches to grind, i plan on sitting in one spot (preferrably aurillia) and grinding it out, otherwise i plan on playing the game as normal. I'm not worried about the caps, specially coz it takes less that 20 people to cap out 80k.
As for no xp for pets, last time i checked you could still BUFF your pet, u just cant HEAL your pet for xp.
Nice points aside. u do understand that if they raise the cap on the xp, they WILL change the conversion rates accordingly and you will wind up screwing yourself in the end. The devs NEVER give anything without equaling it out. arent you paying attention to them when they say 'BALANCE'.....
its fine. leave it alone.
