Ok, i have picked DE, and whilst my harvesters chug away to supply my insatiable appetite for steel i have decided to do another profession. I started carbineer and got carbines 4, then i went hunting in group and realised how bad carbines are. Any good tips? i want to be able to fight, not a rage machine spewing fury from my fists, merely able to participate in a hunt. I could do smuggler, are they any good? I have enough skill points for TKA master.All i know is that i hate carbines. they are no fun. what have others done?

TKA looked like a good route to me and I started to go up that line, but the grind going from unarmed 4 to TKA novice just killed me. I hated it with a passion because unarmed just sucks without the TKA to back it up.


TKA - Good because it only requires 6 skill points to get into Novice.


TKA - Bad because the grind is horrific getting there.


So, I am still sitting on pistol 4 trying to decide if I want to go up pistoleer, or keep up with the TKA torture.

When I did TKA, this is how I made it less painful:


Use your best combat skill, in your case pistols, and kill the mobs at lairs but use unarmed to destroy the actual lair. After you pick them all (or most) out, youll quadruple the damage you do on the lair and get a few thousand unarmed exp depending on the level of the mobs/lair. This doesnt work well for npc missions/lairs as they give *edit* experience for destroying the base.

Ah, I didn't know this and I was just doing missions. Maybe I'll give it a go again although the 35-120ish damage was sure taking forever to bring anything down (Rodian Strength must suck).

if you're going for combat I'd say rifleman is my favorite combat profession, though it really all depends on you and you're personality.
