While waiting hours for a Phase 3 base to spawn, I calulated it takes about 36,000 Pikets to get from Glowy to Jedi Knight with 2 Masters. That is genius game design. Not am I only in line waiting hours for something to spawn that will be ganked anyways, I get to look forward to killing tens of thousands of animals.

Was just doing some more calculations


For a full SP spent Jedi, it would take 36,460,000 Jedi experience to max out. So taking an average of 1000 Jedi experience per 80+ level picket kill. That would take about 36,460 pickets alone todo a full template Jedi. So it's a little more than the original poster posted.


However, and a big however. Taking into account that about 40 pickets or so spawn per lair in an 8 man group. It would take 912 lairs of pickets to complete a full templrate Jedi. And here's the Kicker. During double exp week, we would get groups of AOE people and were able to clear a full lair of pickets in 5 minutes or less. If a person could kill a lair of pickets in 5 minutes, not including getting new mission times, it would take 182.4 minutes to complete the Jedi grind


Quite doable in 1 day of playing.


Adding in that it would take a group of 8 people with 2 missions each, 57 sets of picket missions. At about a conservative... 5 minutes to pick up new missions. Thats 285 minutes added onto the original 182.4 minutes. Added in about 1 minute between lairs for driving time, another 912 minutes...


182.4 + 285 + 912 = 1379.4 minutes to complete the Jedi grind. Which equates to about 22 hours and 59.4 minutes.


So the point of this post is, actually there's no point to it. I was just bored doing theoretical calculations and now that i've did them... the Jedi grind doesn't seem that bad at all! Now if i could only hold a group together for 22 hrs and 59.4 minutes... Let alone holding them together for more than 2 lairs.

Hold up, 912 lairs at 5 minutes each equals 4560 minutes. Where the heck did you get 182.4???





Ahh I see you're Kong-Fu is strong! And mine... Well mine is just weeeeaak! I was calculating, for some odd reason, doing 912 lairs in 5 minutes! Not 1 lair per minute! lol!


912 lairs in 5 minutes = 182.4 doh!


So instead its 5757 minutes to complete the grind! Which indeed is 96 hours!


Dag yo! I knew it was too good to be true. Oh well, I guess no Jedi grind for me!
