Thread: Tusken Raiders
ok, for starters, the only ppl i know that can handle them alone r BHs or commandos. check the list of my skills at the bottom of my post and with that i still get murdered by just raiders, let alone warlords or chiefs. if u have a few friends around ur lvl, u'll need about 3-5 to be safe, and always have a medic, preferably a doctor who can rez.
thanks alot, roadkill
well, in the four days i've been playing, i've met i think two people who are reliable for missions (one at my level, one i think is basically a novice) but cool, i'll see what i can do about rummaging up two to three more people.. thanks again
I can solo fairly well with full doc buffs. Been doing so ever since I got Master Brawler. Btw if you are going buffed always carry some form of Mind heal on you. I usually prefer a Muon Crate and a Angerian Fishak Crate.
Muon gives a nice 500 Mind Boost to Will power Focus and Mind. However once the buff ends the downer kicks in which reduces those same 3 stats.
Angerian Fishak is a Drink which boosts Mind by 500 roughly. However there is no downer to it.
Btw my skill set is Master Brawler Swordsman: 1/4/2/4 TeraKasiArtist:1/1/1/2 Smuggler 0/0/2/0 Pistoler:0/0/4/4 Medic:0/0/4/0
A couple of more tips for you:
Lots of tusken snipers are around, protect your head! Use aformentioned mind buffs and wear a helmet. It'll be hard to locate some snipers as some can shoot through the walls.
try to get a bigger group by offering that the Tusken Fort give tons of XP. And, Also mention that you can possibly get a location badge if you atatck the fort from the underground tunnels. Look for the misty lake with the bones...

I've been able to solo the Tusken Bunker with a set of expensive Composite Armor and no pets. It seems to get easier if you can get a buff first and then use a high damage flame to at least get a burn on the larger groups that are outside of the bunker.
If you're not in a profession that allows you the defensive and offensive boosts such as Commando with Ranged Damage Mitigation or a Teras Kasi Master with Melee Damage Mitigation, then you might want to travel in with two or three people tops {Bounty Hunter, Commando or Teras Kasi Master}.
Alternately, if you don't have those people around, then find yourself a creature handler with smaller and stronger pets. Have someone send in a pet first and draw the aggro, then tick away, making sure to keep the pet healed as you traverse through the lower levels with the Tusken Guards and Tusken Elite Guards.
Ususally you can complete it to the final level of the bunker until you come up against the King who tends to waste an entire Mind bar if you're not watching out.

if you want to solo ft. tusken, get yourself buffed and at least one weapon to level 4. also making camps is a very good thing to have too. i solo Ft. Tusken every now and then (im a novice commando with flamethrower 4). hitting this fort with a pack is your best bet. having someone with a walking battletank graul is also good.
if you go in with an experienced BH or commando, you can clear out the place and get your XP up quick. We did a major commando party and left no one alive. I walked away going from flamethrower 1 to 3 just from that fort in 3 hours.
The other thing is that there are two modes to Fort Tusken. There is the regular mode when the worst thing is the Tusken Warlords, then there is the UberSpawn time when the Warlords are just the beginning.
I have been at Tusken with like 50 people on my server (Player City near there makes it easier) and the uber spawn killed us all.
I can usually take a tusken raider or rifle man by myself, but a team or a warlord and I need a lot of help. I just can't take a hit. Usually on our server the hard part is finding any alive without a TKA or a Commando taking all the XP.

If its not the Uber Spawn, then a well organized group of about 5-7 should be able to handle most of it. If the Uber Spawn is on, then bring anyone you can find, and you are still going to be taking it SLOW.

BTW. I am a 2-3-2-4CM and a 2-2-3-3 Pistoleer master medic.
Become a commando. Seriously. Profession is a blast. Everything burns. Add TKM to Master Commando. Yes, 3/4s of commando is broke. But the flame thrower worksspectacularly well in PvE and rather well in PvP if you get lucky or your opponent is stupid enough to stand w/in 16m and let you roast them.
Good armor is also a must. Being a commando will help you with this. As a commando you can run missions for cash with insane ease and speed once you hit flame IV. Rise and repeat unitl you have a nice wad saved up for some 70-80% comp, then get buffed and unleash holy hell on Tuskens. Even with the new torture lords et al, between my armor, my buffs and my FT, I can solo the bunker or the fort all day long.
