That was a pretty informative post. It certainly helped me make up my mind as to what I will be doing in the game.


He mentioned that it took 50k of fs xp to get the novice box and 175k, 250k, 350k and 450k to get the boxes in a branch. It takes 6 branches to unlock. So that would mean 2 novice boxes and 6 branches for a total of 7,450k of fs xp ( (175+250+350+450)*6 + (2*50) ).


The conversion for combat experience is 30 to 1 for weapon and 3 to 1 for combat.


So lets say I can get 90k of weapon xp and 9k of combat xp per hour. That would be 6k of fs xp. So it would take roughly 1241.67 hours to get that much xp. If I played 3 hours a day that would mean I can unlock in roughly 413.89 days.


Now I understand that Jedi progression is just as hard but until I did this I never understood just how painful it is to be Jedi. It really showed me that I just don't have the determination to pull this off.


In many ways I think that this is a good way to prevent an overabundance of Jedi in the game.

6. Holo-grinding Perks
Paemos will have an extra option for those who have hologrinded (or just did a lot of professions). He offers "free branch unlocks". At this time it appears that these unlocks are equivalent to unlocking a skill tree through a branch. That is: they allow you to train the skill branch but do not grant you an boxes or experience for that skill branch. I can, for example, unlock the Enhanced Senses: Luck skill and I will be able to immediately train in it if I have the FS sense xps to spend. This allows one to overcome the 3 week phase period but does not allow one to skip any of the grinding attached to obtain a branch. There is some concern about this and we can hope that it may be changed. Also note that this information is second-hand and a couple of days dated and may not be accurate at the time you read this (changes don't always make it to the patch notes).




If this is true...then I just grinded 6 months for no reason...I await pub 10. If this is so, I am not going to pay SOE for another 6 months of grind of a different sort. This is no reward.



ps great guide, all though VERY depressing.

You have to do this 5 times.

I updated several bits including the missions. I should have most of the missions there now although my data on most is still sketchy at best. Thanks for all the info. I've also shifted the phases to correspond with the phases that JustG used in his In Testing threads.



--- The Clan McDonnell ---

Gaffyn McDonnell -- Master of Blades (master fencer/swordsman/brawler)
Flynn McDonnell -- Master Weapon Smith (+22 exp), Armorsmith (+25 exp)
Lorrinne McDonnell -- Nightsister (pike/doc)

Could someone check crafting conversion rates again to see if they have changed? I cant get on to TC2. Particularly the elite crafting profs.


Thanks.

You may want to add this im looking at the .TRE files now and it looks like Quharek Phase 2 unlocks the Crafting Techniques as this is the Dialogue...


Yes, we need people to help create defenses for the village. You'll need to contribute at least %DI ingredients to the project. If you do, it will help you gain insight into how the Force can be used to improve your crafting technique. We're also giving awards to whoever brings the most or best ingredients. Are you interested?

there is way to much crap to search through on all these fourms so I'll just ask my question here. Is the old man coming to you the new "You've just unlocked the force" message, or is it the beginning of the quests that will unlock your force?


In other words, are these quests for unlocking the force, or did you unlock the force in order to them (once it goes live on the servers)

Think you have something I don't? You might be right! Give me an offer and we'll change that.

Phase 1 - Clean-up Crew


Quest Giver: Quharek


Task: Repair the Sensor Array - Quharek tells you that the chief engineer has been killed in the attack and that the sensor array has been damaged. He directs you towards the sensor array and asks for your help in the matter



  • Find and Examine the Sensor Array- The Sensor Array looks like a Standard Mission Terminal, near the edge of the wall. Examining the Array will bring up a menu that allows you to retrieve and place the 4 Sensor Array parts.

  • Find the chief engineer's workstation- This is a simple task that involves walking into one of the nearby huts. Currently, this part of the mission is a bit bugged, since both tools are 'hidden' under the table. From talks with QA, the tools should be placed on the table top at some point, so that they can be more readily found.

  • Calibrate and replace components- Using the chief engineer's tools, you can backwards engineer a schematic of each of the four parts. After each part is built, each part must be calibrated using the second tool that is found present. Calibration of each piece is done by solving a puzzle of various difficulty. These puzzles will challenge each person differently, based on their own abilites. After calibration of each piece is completed, the components are to be replaced in the sensor array and the rewards are given for the quest. The following is a list of the required resoruces for each part, and a screenshot of each puzzle.


    • Signal amplifier


      • 25 Units of Talusian Fiberplas

      • 20 Units of Carbonite Or

      • 20 Units of Aluminu

      • 70 Unit of Coppe

    • Configuration Processor


      • 50 Units of Rori Fiberplast

      • 30 Units of Copper

      • 40 Units of Aluminum

      • 15 Units of Coppe

    • Gyroscopic Reciever


      • 50 Yavinian Wind Energy

      • 20 Units of Lubricating Oil

      • 45 Units of Steel

      • 20 Units of Copper

    • Soild State Array


      • 100 Units of Extrusive Ore

      • 10 Units of Nabooian Water Vapor

      • 20 Units of Polymer

      • 10 Units of Copper

Phase 2 - Survey - Construction Foreman


Quest Giver - Eozlin


Task - Eozlin asks you to look for resource locations so that the rebuilding of the village can be accomplished. Eozlin modifies your survey device tool, so that you can detect and sample special resorces that are required. These resources include


  • Ostrine

  • Endrine

  • Wind Crystals

  • Rudic

  • Adranium

Eozlin tells you that these resources will help to create the village defenses and can either be returned to him, or offered to other crafters to be used ito make better defenses.


For this quest, I was asked to survey for 50% or higher concentrations of the following resources



  • Iron

  • Gas

  • Energy

  • Ore

  • Gemstone

  • Steel

  • Copper

FS Branch - Heightened Senses - Luck


Reward - 7 of the special resources & 1 Inorganic Survey Device that can be used to survey for Gas, Chemical, and Mineral
