Are you enjoying the force sensitive grind?
Please, what is the most enjoyable way to survive the grind?
Wait until all of those 24 boxes are done, you get visited again, kill Mellichae (it's fun!) and then do eight Padawan trials, when you finally becomea Jedi Initiate and are able to wield a lightsaber. I only need 20k Jedi XP to get the first Novice box. Here's how combat with a 1.5k HAM fynock goes:
Miss, Miss, Miss, Hit 234, Miss, Miss, Hit 98, Miss, Hit 186, Miss, etc etcdead! 149 Jedi xp yay! And it only took about 2 minutes.
It's fun using a crap saber and not have to be hunted, but sooner or later you'll want to finish the trials and become a Padawan and advance your skills. THEN the real fun starts. I have no idea what to expect, I don't know what Novice Lightsaber gives me. But being hunted scares me to death.
Well, anyway, if you think this grind is terrible wait until you become a Jedi. Smashing rancors for an hour with my253-452 2.6 scytheto max out 2handed xp is a lot more exciting at the moment, when I'm killing evil little birds and whatnot and swinging my saber once every 5 seconds.
But at least I now have a lightsaber! The culmination of my being! The icing on my cake! The cream in my coffee!
I hate coffee.

I have to say for awhile I was going as fast as I could go on my grind but I just decide to slow the pace and do other things. I am a rifleman and I can cap in two hours if I am running stalker missons out of the MO but I decided to switch off with shaman missions for more money and chance at crystals. So now I do two of each and then switch. Also JTL has really cut into my grind. I have only been on the ground since launch to get new componants and chasis. I really like JTL at the moment. Not saying it wont get boreing but right now it is a great relief for the horrible monotonous FS grind.

I had one idea for surviving the scout grind. (1 to 8)
Racing !!!!!
If you have your mask scent on you can zip around Dath on your swoop and rake in the scout xp for 'avoiding' red dot beasties. If you get a friend or two involved you can challenge each other to races. Find the right area's or just randomly drive around and you will bring in the Scout xp in no time at all. Plus you don't have to travel more than a few k from the village. If you find a likely beastie to kill whilst your out and about hot-rodding it, you can stop and kill them then harvest. Et voila, even more scouting xp

To add to the idea, I've just been told that if you are a Master Ranger you can make the Dath Camo kits. Camo/conceal your friends and yourself and then ride around. You will get Scout XP for them 'evading' red dots as well. Meaning that the grind is even faster and more fun. (More people racing, more fun.)
