Last night, a friend inforrmed me of the Jindu Cave on Endor, close by the Smugglers' Outpost. Big deal, I thought...it's just one more POI Badge, and it drops loot. Yes, it drops SEA's and food, but that was the furthest thing from my mind...
The lil bastards are vulnerable to Kinetic damage!
I've renamed this place "Fencers' Heaven" because i was getting 3-4k xp per kill, and I had a blast! I ended up giving all my SEA's to my friend in exchange for killing more Jindus, and a fair trade it was for all the xp I was getting. Just a few pointers for people who go there:
DO...get brandy. You'll be glad you did, since it boosts mind +405 for 37 minutes, and Muon Gold (if you use it) as backup, and it goes into the next one.
DO...use CoB, Warcry1 or 2, HealthHit 1, and Spin Attack if you have it. CoB for accuracy, WC 1 or 2 to delay them (and I'll explain why in a minute), HH to make them bleed, and any SpinAttack to knock there health down faster. You will be spamming the HELL out of these moves, and the last thing you want is your mind to get wiped out (as I sadly found out a few times :smileysad
. I tried Body Hit 3, but for some reason, it didn't work as good, so I stuck with SpinAttack. Ohh, and they don't DB, so if you incap, don't worry.
DO...use your highest speed weapon. They're faster than Ewoks, and it will be a competition you and the Jindus on who will hit who many times and faster. And they also KD, so have your /stand button hotkeyed in to get up quickly.
DO...take backup. These lil bastards swarm you when you attack one, and may end up being surrounded by up to 20 at a time if you're not careful. NO JOKE! This is the best time where WC comes in handy big time, and you'll be using it often. Your backup can (Hopefully!) use WC on the remaining Jindus to make it easier for the both of you, and mopping them up will be easier
Overall, I thought it was an EXCELLENT cave to level up at. I'm gonna try it without any meds buffs, and go strictly food buff today, and I'll report later which is better.

Personally, I think it would be great for a novice fencer! Just take your time, don't go solo, have plenty of food and meds, and I see you having no problems. Then again, that's just the type of fencer I am...just going for it, and making the most of what I got. Have fun!

Damn it, that was my secret spot.
I went from 3/4/3/3 to master there, and got some nice loot too. I brought along a nice fencer, and he was getting killed left & right, even with very good buffs, so be careful. This is more of a finisher to the fencer tree rather than a starter.

I dont know about you guys, but with some half decent doc buffs, chef food, and some 70% ubese, i was able to solo anything in this cave easy as a 0202 fencer. It was really good exp, and now that i have spin2 i think i will go again. If you use COB all the time, with some aircake, you are getting hit very rarely.
Also, with spin2, you can blind them a lot, which i didnt have when i did it before, so it shouldnt be too hard for a fencer who is maybe halfway up the tree.

Actually, what I did was gather them all around me, sometimes 15 at once, and spam the three spin attacks. Between that, COB, brandy and buffs, I can solo that cave without seeing my health or action dip below 1300 or so.
