No , only at padawan can you gain visibilty .



Additional tip for new padawans is to pick up some additional novice professions. Once i learned novice LS I was able to quickly pick up novice healer, enhancer and defender which helped my force pool and regen rate emensly.

to everybody not familiar with macros here isa little thing I like to call my emergency macro:

I have thaktillio, my stun helmet, chestplate and a good poison lance in the first 4 slots of my first toolbar. I grind using the 2nd toolbar (jedi powers and LS moves etc.), when I see blue dots coming at me I jam the emergency macro:


/ui action toolbarPane00; <---goes to first toolbar

/ui action toolbarSlot00;<---these eat thaktillio and equip armor and weapons respectively

/ui action toolbarSlot01;

/ui action toolbarSlot02;

/ui action toolbarSlot03;

/macro center; <---with a pike in my hand this launches my center of being macro for Pikeman







this is my center macro (named center)

/center;

/pause 32; <---look in skill mods and see the CoB duration,make this one second more than that

/macro center;<---reloads the center macro, making it repeat




macros can save your life

^ that's my mount speederbike macro, I have it try three times because it has failed before with less tries. Get within 4-5 meters of speederbike, no need to target it.

OK here is the big question that we all want to know the answer to, we've got novice everything, maybe LS 0-0-1-0, what should we be hunting?

I'm asking this generally because the other skills that we have, e.g. TKA/Fencer, etc, etc, do not actually effect the amount of Jedi XP recieved for the kill. So assuming that we all have enough force power to spam low-lvl specials to our heart's content, which mobs have the best HAM/XP ratio? (i.e. Does anything beat the noble Quenker?)

This is a good question! I have only been out hunting for the past week and so far quenkers go down pretty fast with just novice LS and yeald nice exp .. So far time to exp ratio quenkers have all other creatures beat.

Great Thread!

1. I think adding Novice Jedi Defense is a must. It only costs 20K XP and you get a nice bump in skill mods on top of the 200 Force power and +1 regen.

2. Another posted tip was to complete the Hero's quest for the Rez ring.

Can someone discuss strategies for defending your padawan once a BH attacks? I would guess:
1. Keep your bike out at all times
2. Jump on your bike when you see a blue dot racing towards you
3. Head to your safe house and wait it out


Thanks!





Some strategies i use is:


Get force run 1 asap (saved me a buncha times)


if you dont have FR1 then keep your speeder very close (but BH can kill speeders, and do, so have 3 in your datapad)


have a "false weapon" for around town and even hunting... if you see that blue dot it could just be a passerby but if they see a LS they may have a BH friend... sometimes if you just quickly switch to your false weapon from your LS and shoot at the mob instead of have your LS out it can save you some hassles.


ALWAYS keep your LS on your toolbar if not always equipped.


dont be a hero, there is no shame in running.


p.s. glad my thread has helped you and thanx to all those that post here

Yavin is very nice for starting jedi. wild spawns have LOTS of critters in them and its generally sparsly populated (just dont go near geo caves)

99.5% of the critters dont DB, just got poison to worry about but you can avoid spiders.


I would say stay away from dath and endor as you will be spending ALOT of time there once you get higher in your LS.


try to get at least healing 1-1-0-0 asap ... will help alot.

Do you generate visibility if you do missions or other stuff but use your old profession like master TKA in my case?

no, only if you use your LS or force powers (including force run or ANY force power)

Yes i beleive you can use a PSG. i never have but i've heard of others that do. Not too effective against kinetic but good vs ranged opponents.
