Hi !

Ive been away for a while... When im reading new posts about grinding FS xp i see lots ppl using grenades on lairs/mobs. Why is that ? Does it give more Xp that just killing them in ordinary fashion ?

im MTKA, Fencer, Medic wich grenades should i use ?

Please help me clear this out. When i was doing some power grinding i did Hurtoon stalker lairs on dant. Capped 900k Xp in like 1h with MTKA and abit slower on fencer.

Regards

45mins with grenades = 300k combat xp = 100k FS xp.

1h with other weapons = 900k weapons xp = 30k FS xp

Do I need to say more?

Whereas most weapons give Weapons XP converted at 30:1 + Combat XP (10% of Weapons XP)converted at 3:1, grenades give all Combat XP.

So if for a mob you would normally get 3000 weapons xp + 300 combat xp (converts to 200 FS xp), with grenades you get 3000 combat xp + 300 combat xp (converts to 1100 FS xp).

Thermal Detonators FTW

! Costs about 100k-150k per crate and you need 4000 commando to use them.

yea but then you might as well grind regular xp since c12 nades suck and are very very slow

One other thing, grenades are expensive. One bud said it took about 14 crates of nades per FS Tree. Thats 1.4 mio per tree assuming 100k a crate. Also be sure your order them in advance, they take a pretty long time to make.

Happy Grinding.

It always comes down to grinding.

Unfortunately, I need my Master Swordsman template to be able to loot the items to make the money that I need to afford to be a nades grinder.

Im was TKM during village grind andafter seeing how long it took to complete two boxes as TKM I went Commando 4000 and used Imp Dets then moved on to Thermal Nades and finished my 6 trees two weeks ago. Note I started grinding I would saysince late Oct but did it off and on and not consistently.

I completed the Mallichae exit last week and have a few padtrial missions to finish but Im gtinding jedi xp before finishing Pad Trials. Want to grind at least 20k. Crafted and tuned my glow stick last night.

If I didnt use grenades I would still be grinding plain and simple and wouldnt be a jedi initiate. Grenades made me broke but itsure as h__ was worth it.
