Thread: is it fun :)
So the question I have is;
Who has completed there FS trials and mad padawan and what’s it like?
How long did it take was it fun?
Is it quicker than holo grinding?
Regards ray
If you choose to go FS, just make it fun. When it starts to become work, you will become disheartened and pessimistic. Good luck

The force sensitive system is not fun. The padawan trials are not fun. Jedi is not fun. It took exactly 18 weeks. It is probably a longer system than holocrons.
I don't know if I would go to those extremes, but the grind can be a pain in the a** sometimes and boring. The only way I made it less boring was just do one buff session of grinding per day, and with grenades it would get me much more exp then I needed per phase, so you do have free time. It all depends on how much your willing to put into it for the final goal of just beinga Jedi, and to me that is worth it. Enjoy.

1. Though I have enough FS branches to unlock, I'm waiting until Phase III to try and complete the Experimentation quest again. I found that quest to be rather hard, especially since you have to collect an estimated 200 resource containers to complete the required number of components. I struggle as a crafter (even when I did Medic and was working towards CM after starting), probably because I'm not patient enough with looking for resources, then sitting down and crafting.
2. Depending on my rate of play, I could probably reach Mellechae's quest within the next month or June.
3.I think it's faster, and more fun, than hologrinding because you can utilize a profession that you enjoy rather than grinding through some random profession that you might not enjoy. Fortunately, my three holos were Teras Kasi, Smuggler and Rifleman, which I enjoyed going through. As some of the others have touched on, I think the key is finding some aspect of the FS system that you enjoy and focus on that thing rather than all the negatives that one hears from others.
My current strategy is to pursue a certain number of FS boxes within a certain time frame. Unlike some, I try to convert XP every SWG session instead of waiting until an XP cap (unless it's a really, really small amount) because each amount of XP earned is one step, albeit a small one, towards the ultimate prize.I keep my XP monitor set up with five skills (first three are the particular FS skills from Enhanced Reflexes, Heightened Senses and Crafting Mastery that I'm working on, other two are regular skills I'm working on also) so I can see where my progress is. It's a real morale booster when you see that bar jump after converting about 300k of Combat XP.
To tell you the truth I’ve been away for a while, since last may and I read about the FS quest based system so i had put it off up until now, only because I wanted to read all about it and find out if it was for me, so far I think it is.
Thanks for all the info

Well that’s definitely got me thinking, I’m nearly at the glowy stage just now and I only have to complete the jaba theme quest (and some Jabba faction points, mine are -4000 just now) and that’s me.

The quests are fun, yes. It's the countless of hours of mindless grinding in between which aren't fun.
