I think the REAL question is: Can you grind 225,000 dance exp per day? Or 150,000 tailor exp per day?
Combat's easy - you really need to feel for those people trying for the two non-combat related FS trees.





Well, the dancing experience isn't hard to get that much a day if you AFK macro in coronet. Then again you'd have to do that all day every day about, and that wouldn't be playing the game. Of course, I don't consider mindlessly grinding rediculously high amount of millions of weapon and combat experience playing the game either. IMO this new system is a joke.

People wanted a fun and enjoyable system. No one said anything about making it easier, just making it less mindnumbingly boring. If SOE wanted to make it more geared to the casual player, they HAVE TO reduce the required experience to be grinded, because the current amount is not casual, unless you intend casual players to unlock sometime in late 2006. Holo grinding was not fun. Experience grinding is not fun. Two strikes already SOE.

Yeah, I feel for dancer...I have a dancer alt and the xp is sooooooooooo sloooooooowwwww......dancer and musician xp should be 1 -> 1 conversion.


also, if an ent. wants to become a jedi, then they have to do combat, crafting or healing anyway.....the quickest, easiest and less frustrating way to get a jedi is to do the combat related branches.


If they just want FS, then the only line they need is the one for dance/music healing. In which case, you'd be better off doing medic xp instead of dancer xp since you have to have medic skills to unlock the line anyway...there are no ent. mission that will unlock a branch in FS....so sad...devs missed that one.





Dont even get me started on that BS Persuasion skill - Master Doctor ?!? W-T-H?

Yes.


How long does it take to get 900k weapons xp ?

I can earn 900k weapons xp in 2 hours.


Oh and what do you do for a job / family ?

Composite armor, doctor buffs, brandy and some muon for emergencies. A Teras Kasi Master (which I am) can do Piket Plainswalkers on Dantooine and get 70k exp per lair, in under 5 minutes. Add in travel time between lairs, mission terminals, etc. and you can do 900k in 3 hours easily.


My personal best was 1.4 million in 3 hours. Nothing but Pikets. Either in a 15 man solo group, or natural lairs.

you jsut need to go on a hunt with your guild each day if you plan 900k a day. I got 700k in geo labs in 2 hours. that was even with all the camping scum jedi in every position.


Normally I get 900k in about an hour, then takes bloody ages to go to the village(complete waste of time flying there and back for 20 mins). Once I get back I can manage another 900k before my medium buffs run out.

You get combat exp too, that is roughly 70,000 exp in force. People are making this grind to be way to bad then it is in reality. If you are not getting your combat exp that is your own fault. I have two branchs left for jedi. With those two I banked 400k jedi exp for training during next phases. I've done the math, and it appears I will have to max exp about 20 more times. That is not that bad, and can I doit in 5 weeks?? Yes I can, and will, because I want it that bad. Yah, it stinks if you didnt get any freebies, but even then, if you bank in different trees like prowess, and reflexes you can bank up to 2 branchs at a time, and stay ahead of the game.

900000 combat exp is equale to 30000 force exp. please say this isn't acceptable. to think otherwise is stupid. It means you just spent 3 1/2 hours grinding crap exp.


When does this game get fun again?







When people realize that BEING A JEDI is not a pre-requisite for FUN.


They really should just dedicate a server where people can log in, instantly create an UBER JEDI KNIGHT, run around and get their fix, and then decide they'd rather play a normal character on a normal server.

i can easily get 900K every day if i have the time. I think the new jedi system isn't fair at all, they just leave too many people out from ever becoming a jedi (crafter,ent, non-grinders) the only way you can get jedi is if you devote your life to swg for monthes, those of us that have lifes dont have a chance. Don't get me wrong, i like the quest part of the system, but the exp part really needs to be reworked. Well that's my take on it anyway.
ps. I now it will take for ever but that wont stop me from trying.



The new jedi system was supposed to be quest based, i actually like the quest part of the new system, but the exp grind is just too much,. I thought the devs were moving away for grinding jedi, guess i was wrong.

Didn't they have that on TC2 for a while?


I agree with you, people who think the only way to have fun is to be a Jedi, are probably never going to be satisfied here.



BUT! There is a game where they can be a Jedi right away! It's called Jedi Knight III: Jedi Academy. They can even play it online to get their fix of PvP, the other thing such people feel is needed for "fun". But they might not find it as fun as they want, because everyone else is as powerful as they are, and it's no "fun" if they can't lord it over everyone else.
