I started out doing it without grenades. I was able to get about 80-90k fs xp in a buff session. Maybe I was doing something wrong. You can do the math on how long that would take you to do a whole tree 1.25 mil fs xp. Went to grenades and I could get 350k - 450k fs xp per buff session depending on how many Night Sisters I stopped to kill on the way. I'm sure you don't want to here this but I would strongly recommend picking up the grenade tree in Commando and use Imp detonators or Thermals. Hope this helps!

I have been doing the village stuff and I have yet to use a single grenade.
I am a Master Swordsman in a single buff session I make two trips to the village, each trip I am capped in two handed experience and have about 100k of combat experience. This comes out to about120k of force sensitive experience.
If you can pull this off at lease once a day you will get the needed experience to complete the branch you unlock each time the village changes phases.
I don't have anything aginst using grenades, it's just something I chose not to do, I am still able to enjoy the game and go on guild hunts as well.

Which means if you do one buff session a day you can complete a tree in 21 days. So If you are not behind like I am, because I redid my entire template after starting the FS grind, you can complete the grind while waiting for the next phase.
So the answer is, do you want to get the exp out of the way? Or do you mind grinding through one buff session a day? It is entirely up to you.

Exactly. That's how I did my first two trees. I don't get an adulterated 3 hour session everyday so it was not practical for me to do it without grenades and keep up with the village shifts. It felt too much like work doing it with unarmed and the residual combat xp from it. It's a matter of preferance and time available.

Hi, I am master swords and master tkm. I have yet to use one gernade in my grind. Actually, for me it's not really a grind. I just go about killing things at my own pace. I have been glowy since 3 days after pub 10 was released. I am now halfway through my 4th box and have one branch to go. The good thing I like about doing it my way is I have never gotten burned out or bored and really am enjoying the game. I hope you will take your time and get your xp when it comes. Yes, I agree a "grind" day is always good every now and then, but this game will still be around, so take your time and enjoy it. No sense of going nuts over something that is going to happen for you in a matter of time. Might as well enjoy the game and when you get Jedi, you get it and be happy. No sense of just grinding away, ignoring your guild mates and city players so you can go off by yourself killing millions of rancors. Stay involved and do what you have to do to cap and make Jedi, other than that, just make sure you have a great time and enjoy the game!

So very true. I was a TKM/Master Fencer, i used grenades for like an hour and decided to quit that. It can get expensive. Plus, the force sensitive grind is just a wee baby compared to the Jedi grind. Just be ready for it. It goes from "How many max outs can I get in a buff session?" to "I wonder how much xp im gonna get this buff session?" It is fun, though, so it has an up and down side to it.

if you just want to get enough xp in 3 weeks to fill in the tree you unlocked, just converting 900k weapon and 90k combat each day will do it since its about 21 trips to convert...i did one tree without nades and the last half of the last tree with them, no real difference for those who only play an hour a day...

I am very much so looking forward to becomming a jedi
i dont even consider the fact that it is a grind, iw ill have more fun being jedi then i have had in a long time. the FS part is not a large grind, and i agree..if you work at your own pace you will keep yourself busy and hopefully having fun.
I will result to using granades just to get the FS partout of the way...granadesarethe fastest way, but i want to get the FS grind out of the way so i will be set for the next couple of months, i want to settle down and work on pilot, once i finish with FS grind....after i unlock Jedi it will just be hunt when i want, fly when i want, and just kick it. I have researched and by the time i have unlocked my 6th box it will near summer...giving me the whole summer to level my jedi.
