Well that´s not so hard...try Dathomir for some Rancors or run missions on Dantooine like crazy lol


I for my part go for rancors they give nice xp and are relativley easy to kill...that way i can max out my unarmed xp within 60-90 minutes.

honestly i see no problem with this system. i am swordsman/Tk/Pike and i capp my sword XP twice per buff session. so in an evening i can make anywhere form 120-360K force XP. I do this in Rancor Valley killing enraged rancor nests. i'm done the Survival Tree so now i'm just stockpiling till next phase comes in, then i can learn all the boxes as soon as i'm done my mission. Point is if you want to be a Jedi so badly, you will find a fast, effective way to do it and not **edit**.

oh and for all you docs this is what i do with my Alt. I sit in the village, i paid a few of my friends credits and buff for life and such. Then i have then duel unbuffed, kill each other. I then Rez and rebuff them, they duel again and repeat. THats' the proper way to do it. As for the Crafters out there, i agree, the conversion should be about double, but then again with all the 3rd party macros and **edit** around you can just grind while you're at school/work where i have to actually control my char to kill rancors and stuff

not to mention the resource cost... as a master de, i will need millions of units of steel and fiberplast.... that is crazy. They made the grind far worse imo.

Here's my dilemma.....


I work 8 to 10 hours a day, 6 days a week. Grinding. In real life. I bought SWG as a game, to wind down at the end of the night.


My definition of a game is simple: It should be fun, and you should be able to win.


Here's where SWG sits with me........either I can have fun, and never win, or I can grind (work, just like my bloody job), and eventually win, but it's not fun.


For now, I got three game cards with the game, as a gift. I have two cards left, so I'll use them. But the fun of gameplay is kinda lost for me now, as all SWG has become is a glorified, highly graphical chatroom to me. I refuse to come home from a day of real-life grinding, to spend another 3-6 hours doing more virtual grinding. I thought the game would be about being a Wookie, fighting Imps or Rebels, depending on your choice, and eventually becoming a Jedi, or at least recieving your final award as Hero Of The Master Of the Beat The Game Winner.


Turns out that if I want to actually win, what I got for a gift is another job, that not only doesn't pay me, but that I have to PAY to work at!


Imagine how disappointed I was to find out that yes, you can become a Jedi, but you have to spend as much time sitting in front of your crafting station, making things, as I do at my real job, sitting in front of my real "crafting station" making product.........and I don't even have the benefit of marketing, outside sales, and magazine ads to sell my SWG product........all I have is the wonderful ability to spam the Starports, and lag everyone else's gameplay. Lovely.


I'll finish out my game cards, then I'll move on to a game that's actually a GAME, and not a poorly executed copy of real life, with Wookies.
