I have been able to get 900k XP in 3 hours as a swordsman and in about 3-4 hours as a TKM.



Me too - I already have 235k in FS xp in about8 hours of game play over the last few days.

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.






You are very wise. It doesn't get any CLEARER than this folks. Competition. Being better than the next guy. Its what brings people into this game, and eventually drives them away from it. Classic double edged sword phenomena. The good thing about this game is that you don't need to fall into that trap; there are lots of other things you can do that are equally fun.


A little bit of off topic, my-point-of-view rambling here: Sure I'd LOVE to loot an exceptional 1500 strength mind fire rifle. I'd always win every PvP battle. But then what? Maybe I'd kill 500 people and realize its boring to always win. Maybe it would only take killing 2 people to make me realize this. For some, guaranteed lopsided victories are what floats their boat. For me, there's got to be some element of risk involved in PvP. Would any Master of a combat profession find it fun to hang around Mos Eisley killing the worrts and lesser womp rats all day?

I am a expert Bounty Hunter (pistol tree) and master pistoleer with novice commado. I can max pistol (900K) and heavy (300k) in about 2 hours. that would also yeild 120k combat exp as a by product. thats about 80k FS exp if my calculations are right. What I have been doing is get into a solo group(more that 5 people) to get the big spawn on missions. Go to dantooine and do savage quneker missions with pistol, after maxing that change to Launcher pistol( this gun is great with fanshot). Launcher gives you heavy weapon exp. I cap both in aboutr 2 hours. what i do is stand back 64 meters use fanshot on the lair non stop all the spawns run to me then try to run a fix the lair they all fall to my pisol. When in large groups the spawn is massive I get like 60k exp or so per lair takes about 7 to 10 minutes per lair. rinse and repeat been doing it since sature day only have one more fs box to go. For the Launcher pistol I tend to go for the 16k payout picket mission or the hight lvl lizard one (cant remember name).


I used to go to squil cave but its over populated by people now ..... i feel sorry for the poor dead squills.

I'm a TKM as well, and I found that I could drop huurton stalkers, which give around 5K XP each vs. a Picket Plains Walker's 3.5K or so (if I recall correctly, could be wrong), in about 3 seconds flat. The lair spawns five at a time, and usually starts with 4, for a total of 75K XP per lair (with the lair giving around 5K as well). I'm usually done with the lair in about 5 minutes time or less. They don't pay very much, but I'm not really in it for the cash anymore.

900k is easy to get for one buff session.


step one get top notch armor and weps


steptwo get doctor, mucic and dance buffs


step three get in a solo group (you get more xp while grouped)


stepfour go a distant planet like dantooine


step five go far away from the perminant cities (player cities are ok)


step six find a nice creature base, go right next to it and spam aoe attacks (point blank area 1 works great as well as all melee aoe attacks)


repeat step six until your buffs are gone, 900k xp easy






Step Seven: Cancel your account


Step Eight: Uninstall SWG and format the drive just in case any sneaky bits remain


Step Nine: Burn SWG box while chanting over sacrificial can of tuna, "SWG sux a55...SWG sux a55..."


Step Ten: Realise you have just saved yourself countless hours sitting in front of a monitor killing your 28,000th Rancor!


Step Eleven: Pre order WoW and wait.

I can easily cap out my TKM in an hour. He has a good supply of VK's and a backpack full of powerups, doc buffed and 3x ahrisa + 2x brandy = good to go.


I have done it in a couple of ways :


1. Dathomir - head to near the Sarlac pit and kill everything in sight.

2. Dantooine - get a couple of missions close together then kill everything nearby. This seems to bump up the server activity and more spawns turn up.


Tonight when i started the only 2 spawns i saw were my missions. After completing them a couple more low levels, but keep killing everything and lots pop. I don't return for more missions as it's a waste of time.


For those that say this isn't for the casual gamer, it's probably not. But when I can do this once a night, most nights, in between spending lots of time with my daughter and wife then i say it's OK. I'm NOT aiming to unlock my padawan by the time I have completed the quests, I am just looking to have completed my quests within that timescale.Besides, my Chef/BE is very grateful for the 500k of awesome quality Dath carni meat


Stop looking at the 4 months being the MAXIMUM time you should be playing for to get your unlock. It's the MINIMUM, so stop stressing about not being able to grind the cap once or twice a day.

I can,the days I play SWG. In a buff session (3h 30m) i reach my caps in unarmed, combat and scout twice, but only when I'm lucky (find a huge solo group to get lvl199 missions on Dathomir)

ok let me try to understand this, you only get the 3 weeks of each phase to get the FS exp for the tree you chose?

Um, i can earn about 1.8mil weapons xp and 180k combat xp within, or even less than one buff session. About 2-2.5hrs aughta do it. I have master rifleman/master fencer w/+12 to speed on both, and +12accuracy on both (nice lil' force stuff, from village). With rifleman, it's a joke. I go to dathomir and kill EVERYTHING i see (with exception to high lvl NightSisters). And i emphasis "everything". Not to brag, but w/those speed enhancements, for my ranged attacks, i hit adv. strafe every second. I can max out, 900k, on rifleman in about an hour, and fencer takes about another 1.5-2hrs. Anyways, back to the grind...
