I realize that I don't post much, spend to much time in game to spend it out here =)
This is JUST for FS grind, doesn't count getting a profession templete or what happens afterwards with jedi templete.
Here are the numbers based on the new XP nerf and the Combat nerf combined
(1,225,000 * 6) + (50,000 * 2) = 7,450,000 FS Exp to finish FS Grind
7,450,000 * 30 = 223,500,000 Normal Weapon/Combat Exp Needed to finish FS Grind
Currently,
Weapons
CL82 lair gives 5379 per kill SOLO
CL82 lair gives (5379 / 8)* 1.264 =850 per kill in an 8 man group
(The 1.264 is the group bonus)
Combat Exp:
Solo: 5379 * 0.10 = 538
Group: 850 * 0.10 = 85
Total Exp:
Solo: 5379 + 538 = 5917
Group: 850 + 85 = 935
Roughly (being optimistic here and this is an estimate)
9 creatures per lair SOLO
30 creatures per lair in 8 man group
Lair Exp is roughly 10,000 (VERY Optomistic)
Solo: 10,000 / 9 = 1,111 xp per creature
Group: 10,000 / 30 = 333 xp per creature
Creature/Lair Aggregate Exp
Solo: 7028 xp per creature
Group: 1268 xp per creature
Aggrigate + 10% Insp Buff
Solo: 7731 xp per creature
Group: 1395 xp per creature
223,500,000 / 7731 = 28909 Creatures to finish grind solo
223,500,000 / 1395 = 160215 Creatures to finish grind in an 8 man group
31801 / 9 = 3212 Lairs to finish grind solo
160215 / 30 = 5340 Lairs to finish grind in 8 man group
160215 / 30 = 5340 Lairs to finish grind in 8 man group
Lets say we do 16 lairs in a day, 2 for each person in an 8 man group
3533 / 16 = 200 days or29 weeks
5340 / 16 = 333 days or 47 weeks
Used 16 due to the fact that not everyone will grind 7 days a week for 38 weeks (71 weeks in a group), tried to be optomistic here, if you guys think a different number should be used other then 16 lairs i can change it.
Correct me if i'm wrong but this seems a little extreme and even worse then the Holo-grinding of old
I might have an error somewhere cuz' i can't believe it would be this
-- Combat Exp Added
-- Added Group Bonus
-- Added Lair XP
-- Added Insp Bonus

Add to that about 30,000,000 Jedi XP for a full temp, that turns out to be a far too extreme grind. JediXP at the moment is probably around 1250 (if you are still combat level 80) solo, 130-150 if you are in a group.

Its not supposed to be instant. Its not even supposed to be quick.
Plus the OP forgot;
Combat XP is earned alongside weapon XP (10% off total right there)
Lairs give XP as well (for the soloist that is over 20% extra XP per mission of 9 critters)
Group XP bonus (whatever it ends up being)
An 8 man group doing 1 pair of lairs per member in a day DESERVES to take a year to unlock.
Its easy to make the numbers look far worse than they really are when you omit large amounts of xp, double-count and assume the players are incompetent/uninterested.

Will correct those errors, can anyone tell me how much exp is for a lair? Group bonus was counted in already, i'll update that so you can see that.

You get good xp for using Bol three times in a sentence but you need to use it about 44,000 more times to unlock jedi

Myself I dont have a problem with everyone being able to play as a Jedi at this point. Why not? A good portion of the player base is Jedi anyway.
