Thread: On the box it says I can be a Jedi? Where is the option for this?
- Pick Zabrak as your starting race. (Equilibrium and other Zabrak bonuses make them a good choice for any melee prof, especially Jedi.)
- Master Doctor and get Novice Scout so you can buff yourself quickly without the wait and can gather your own Avian meat.
- Master a Combat prof that excels in PvE, Rifleman, Swordsman, or Commando (Commando is a special case, it's a good choice for getting combat XP which converts very well into FS XP.)
I say this because you will be doing ALOT of PvE, you won't really have time for PvP until you are a Jedi if you are focused on that goal. Once there get the best armour and weapons you can and spend alot of time hunting high level content, Krayt Dragons, NightSister Elders etc. Don't sell any Crystals or pearls, or Akuan Rings, sell any SEA or AA that you get that you can't use. Maintaining a Jedi can be an expensive business with Pearls and Crystals costing what they do.
Don't build a house at the start- it won't serve any benfit to you, it'll cost you maintenance which will draw from the coffers of your Jedi Fund. You can buy one later if you need to - in the meantime use the safety deposit box to store the best items you get, don't keep rubbish - you'll need all your space later.
Do buy a swoop bike, they cost to repair, and they degrade fast - but the speed you can get around at is invaluable, you need to visit alot of POI and do alot of travelling to get the Old Man visit so fast transport is a must.
When you get the village quests - plan carfully which trees to open, you don't want to waste anymore time on this than required, you can only unlock one branch per phase so it will waste alot of time if you open the wrong one.
Gear yourself to convert XP efficiently, you need to have mastered earning xp and an extremely efficient rate to be able to expect starting Jedi in a timely fashion.
If you want to get there fast and efficiently, plan, when you aren't playing plan, then plan some more. AFK grind when you can't play, time out of the game is time lost - so don't waste it!
If you are up to the challenge read the guides carefully and thoroughly while you are grinding the standard profs, the best place to start is :-
