The other thing about grouping is that there are those of us that can only play for an hour a day or every other day and that just doesn't allow us to group. Pisses off a group if they are counting on you to tank and you have to bail after 45min so soloing is our best option. Hmmm now how to finish the village.....

All i am gonna say about this is

TIME ZONES PEOPLE

you know we all don't exist on Pacific time... some of us actually live where there is no + or - to the zero hour (GMT)

and a vast majority of those peole are in guilds where they are not always able to play at 'Guild Times'...

So what, either we go clinically insane from zero sleep or loose all our in game friends... just to please SOE....

Thats really keeping the peeps happy... NOT

oh and just before anyone whines about how i should make other in game friends... my point was.. you could play solo and take on reasonable level creatures for good xp..

and then hook up with the guild at weekends for an Uber hunt...

IS THAT SO UNREASONABLE?? apparently so

Impossible no... Here is what I found out. As a BH I can solo somewhat as long as I can keep the mob aggro to one target. XP comes in significant amounts off missions terminals and from mobs that had a higher level than mine (80). Yesterday I killed baz nitches and rancors with a PC and a good rancor as a pet. I noticed that I got good xp from my mission lair and from a 123 level giant baz nitch, and an 82 level rancor. Later on I soloed a rebel mission. Killed three Imperial soldiers and stormies from an 8K payout mission. Picked up 15K/1500 in weapons/combat XP total. I did 4 BH 32K BH missions and got some decent XP. My problems came when I grouped with 2 other players who were master level melee fighters. My MBH skills could only tank so much before I got whacked. It appears that ranged fighting is good so long as you use good tactics in maintaining your range. I found that my LLC was very good at 64m. I observed that you have to stay still to get accurate specials to work effectively. My point is getting a good group going will be a difficult thing to do given the current mind set of the players. The skill now is going back to what we learned as unbuffed, unarmored, under equipped noobs on dathomir in a large group. Believe it or not I had more fun back then and learned to fight with the range of my weapon. I have always been a ranged combatant, except for my brief career change into TKM mixed with Msmuggler and Mpistoleer. Unfortunately I didn't make the cutoff for exiting the village, and thats just as well. I am sure things will change in time as they surely do in these MMORG. Bear with it and adapt, or whine and leave.
