I don't understand stories like this. I have made it to MLS, 4/2/0/4 healing and 4/2/0/3 Enhance and I have never been hunted. I was on the terms once on purpose (as a test), but never been hunted. How can you ger 1.7 mill in the hole so fast?
To answer your question... yes... yes you are doomed.
a lot of bad luck. and trying to take on people i shouldn't...like i said i went a little crazy about a month ago. i haven't been on the terms since...but i now....boring insanity.

by the time i realized that i still wanted to play....i am in this hole. i know that i can get out of it. but i don't have the zeal for a long grind just to get to zero.
i guess i have to make the bed i lie in.
You don't want to sell me deathsticks. You want to go home and rethink your life.

why did u get xxx4 before 4xxx?
well...my initial thoughts were: (call me crazy)
1. better saber blocking
2. extra toughness
3. better lightsaber construction
i figured if visibility was borked, i would at least be able to handle the ranged bounty hunter. (i was way wrong)
back then i was playing two buff sessions a day. it was (relatively) easy to grind out massive (again relatively) amounts of XP.
now i am lucky to get 3 buff sessions a week. now i am wishing that i did 4000 first. it wouldn't bequite sobad.
such is life, i will survive. if not, i always have other toons to play.
on a side note: who is the 5 star bandit? never seen one of those.

NO dont delete it wont take you long to get out of 1.7 mill i got out ofa hole of 1.6 mill before you can do it...and doing the tech tree isnt that rediculous you get more damage from doing tech tree and more defense and block...but wont take you long to go straight up for the one handed 4....
just go for that first....you can get out though...one buff session at a time and i would suggest endor over dant....less npcs....
How do you figure you get more damage by going the tech tree first? From the extra experimentation points you can throw into the damage line? Thats what, 20 more with top of the line resources at tech 4. Maybe you do a few more points of damage with the default attack, but then it takes forever to kill anything that gives good xp. The specials in the LS trees are where you make your money at, not the damage range on your saber. I can do more damage per attack with a first gen saber with no points put into damageand a crappy crystal than I can with a 7 pointdamage experimented first gen with a perfect crystal and saber head hit 1.
Its the multipliers from the specials that make it easier to kill, not the stats on the glowstick.
Thetoughness and block from tech is nice, but the longer you fight something, the more likely it isgoing to kill you.

i don't think deleting is an option anymore. i am not sure if pre-publish 9 toons can delete and start over (which i am not one of)
i have worked too hard and too long with this toon just to start over, plus i have all this junk that i would have to transfer to the alt and what not.

Don't quit, don't give up, you managed the techline with 1000 sabers, you can do the 1,7 mill aswell
Besides, grinding out FS is much more boring than grinding with a ls.. and the techline is 3 mill and you are 1,7 in the hole..
Go out there and fight

I also would say don't reroll. Even if you take your time grinding out of the hole, it can't compare to the weeks you'd suffer through redoing all the fs xp, trials, retemplating of your toon.
And I don't think xxx4 is that crazy. I did virtually the same thing. I thought (while rather naively) it would benefit me better to do techs first. Live and learn.

yeah i figure i will only have to do 472 crazed gurreck missions. (that is assuming no solo groups...) at roughly eight per hour (safely) is i should be done in 59 hrs or 19.6 buff sessions. just to get to zero. yay!!
