....just do some senses trees!


I did 3 senses trees using Master Ranger and its total cake.


Firstly it converts at 8:1 - makes me laugh because they nerf combat and medic xpyet you can cap 1.2mill scout in 1 hour max for 150k FS.


Secondly scout xp is 'passive' xp. You are out grinding combat/reflexes xp anyway. While you are doing it you grab scout xp for basically nothing. For me doing 3 trees reflexes and 3 trees senses felt like half a grind - because it was.


And to give you some idea of how borked scout to senses xp is at the moment, I got my 3.675mill FS and was still only sitting on 1.9mill reflexes when i got there....and that was having 3weapons to cap.


Its all done now thankfully.


Bottom line is unless you are after the sweetest possible PvP template by utilizing the very best FS skills you'd be a fool not to do 2 to 3 senses trees. Much less grinding. Besides Vehicular control and Luck are not totally useless


Very good for those who want to RP a bit of Jedi and get that free extra toon.

thought about this method. one thing i wasnt sure about was grinding master scout. its alot of skill points and if i did it i would have little combat skills left. I guess i could just find groups that would let me just follow around and harvest. One thing i dont know though is how to grind trapping xp. I hear it is weird to grind and ive never tried it so i dunno.

Trapping xp is not easy and is based not on your CL but you current trapping skill level. If you have novice scout then you will need to trap CL5 and below to get xp - even if you are 80. Trying to trap CL80s is impossible. they will never stick.


My tip would be to obviously do scout trapping as you need to Master Scout to get to Ranger but just go up one ranger tree - say tracking. The cap is 1mill scout xp and not 1.2mill but it means you won't have to grind ranger trapping - which IMO is truly awful.

Oh and I should add that if you 'weren't sure because you didn't know if you wanted to grind out master scout' then look at it this way.....


3 MORE refelxes trees vs grinding Master Scout.......not really a contest!

Ok when you say passive xp, you mean just harvesting? no?

Yeah i mean harvesting...its not literally passive because you need do need to perform the harvest action.....but when you are grinding combat/reflexes anyway there are a lot of dead things to cap that xp quickly. Thats what i meant by passive.

I did 3 trees of HS as a master ranger, and it is essential that you get some dweezel when you are grinding up the trapping lines in scout or ranger. This will let you trap at CL +20 from what you would be able to hit otherwise.


Also get a harvesting macro so that all you have to do it hit a button when a creature dies, it will speed things up and make your life better.

Toss in MCH and look at the sences xp roll in, but if any of the devs see this we're going to see the same thing that happened to combat xp happen to scout/CH xp. But yeah go the sences route and see if you can't get the FS Sences Master, and at the same time you might be able to master two combat professions at the same time. m2cw

What about if you've only got Exploration IV in the Scout Profession (prereq for BH)???


What does your Scout XP cap at then???
