Fencer Archive

Holo said Fencing.. i did the 1-hand.. decided i liked it.. put myself through the hell that is getting Novice Fencer.. got novice fencer... then i hit a wall

175,000 xp for footwork 1... "ok i says to myself.. im assuming i can take better mobs now etc etc" after wandering around dantooine, rori, tattoine soloing blues, whites, yellows and reds (tortons and huurtons and i remember a voritor.)... anyway.. the XP per mob is pitiful... horrid.. alarming.. after a few hours i looked over and saw a whopping 4 increments... 35k exp... for an evening!!!! I was killing pretty damned steady... got incapped a bit but that was just till i learned what happened with what mobs etc. Im a wookie (no armor.. slows me a bit im sure,), i have unlimited stims (used to be architect so cash isnt a problem), i have my health set to 1000 and action about 800 with mind and the support stats maxxed (i want fast regen so i can use more stims etc) Im really not having an issue killing mobs... i am concerned as to how slow the xp per mob is etc.. I expected HUGE exp but the mobs that give HUGE exp.. (4k for a voritor) its tough to kill and thers a lot of downtime. Ive read every fencer story guide etc i can find......

My questions are:

Does it get faster or no? i looked at block 4 and saw 450,000 xp and literally considered cancelling my account.. hehe

Am i spoiled? do i just suck it up? is this grind what you all experienced?

Am i doing something wrong?

I have unlimited funds really.. is there anything i can buy to make life easier other than buffs food etc?

I really want to master this.. i dont even care that its a holo.. i enjoy the challenge of going to to toe with a red mob with only a sword in my hand.. i get a feeling of satisfaction when i win.Its a pretty cool profession!... but......If its gonna take me weeks of playing 3 hours a day im afraid i have to rethink my choice for fun... opinions?

Thanks in advance.

at 0-0-0-0 fencer, if you can take out a viotor ( buffs and armor ) you should be getting at least 4k xp per kill. Many are in this list that will give you that much xp.

If you havent noticed yet, missions always spawn a certain amount of creatures. Say dashing viotors for instance.

At first spawn there would be 2-3 depending on difficulty of lair. Tapping lair once after slaying two said lizards will spawn exact amount of creatures that was there when you first reached lair, and will only do so 2 times. By knowing this you can calculate how much xp per mission you will get.

(4k x 6 ) + 3.5k ( lair ) = xp for one mission

What I suggest is find the mission that you persoanlly find easiest to finish. ( from 3k-4k per kill ) Keep head count and spawn count of said mission. And you should be able to calculate how much xp you will get per trip, and then calculate how many missions you will have to do ( its alot )

have fun and always have a calculator handy
