Thread: Does anyone remember what the problem was with Holocrons?

Your joking right? The hologrind was much faster. You could doa combat proffession in about a day and a 1/2 and most artisan proffessions could be done afk. The village is a time gate, nothing more. It forces people to have to wait at least 18-20weeks to become Jedi. If they left the old system in place there would be even more Jedi than there are now. I actually know ppl who gave up on Jedi because they didn't feel like doing the fs grind. I bet I could grind out all 31 professions in the old system in about8 weeks maybe even less if I got lucky and guessed my secret proffs. I just love it how ppl say they had it tough grinding out professions to unlock Jedi. I'd rather do that than the boring fs grind/ village quests.
See.. this is where we ask.. if you could do a profesison in about a day and a half, why didn't you unlock then? and why did you go through the village grind?

I got free unlocks/credits. Once the secret was out and everyone was doing the hologrind getting Jedi was cake. They also stopped people from unlocking between Pub 9 and 10.
So if you got free unlocks/credit, how many holoprofessions did you do?

Unfortunately the village made millionaire out of wpnsmiths. Who sold nades by the crate to people who wanted the combat xp.
Also the biggest outcriers of holocrons ruining their proffessions were entertainers who found that their hard work of ATK playing was getting outshadowed by tons of holocron AFKers n Mind Buffbots.

When you say a day what do you mean? A few hours or 18 hours a day, it took me about a week to grind a prof in the Holo days

He never did a profession a day. The only profession you could do in a day was ID, before they "fixed" it, and possibly Squad leader with a good group.
If he did a professiona day, he didn't have a job, and even so, it took lots of resources, and money and....get this...YOU HAD TO LEARN TO PLAY THE GAME.
What a concept.
Just another waanbe post-CU Jedi regurgitating some trash he heard from someone else who knew nothing either.
It's real easy for people to post this crap, and say how easy it was, even though they never did it.
The reason why they didn't is becuase IT WAS alot harder than running a combat macro in a spin group for 6 months.
No wonder Jedi sucks, look at the people playing them.

Grinded TK in a day. But I also had Fencer defense mods.
LoL. I'm not a post CU Jedi. I was in the FRS tard. Yes I did hologrind and yes I could do any combat proff in a day and a half minus BH. It really wasn't that hard and it's even faster now. I did master pistoleer in 6 hours the other day. You could get 75k xp a lair pre-cu. Milk the lairs to make it more time efficient. Thats 150k every couple minutes. Chuck some nades for the combat xp. Hardest part was the Apprentice xp. Then they eventually removed that.

I'm not talking about the two months before the CURB.
I was reffering to the beginning, and if you had a problem with apprenticeship XP, then I know you're lying, becuase that was the easiest thing to get, even before speeders.
Get real man.
One day?
Pffft.

You also forgot that some proffession were easier to grind back then due to other masteries. As in: My TK grind was easy cause I was a master fencer. A friend of mine grinded all of CM in a days time. He had 5 dancers flourishing up a storm in full comp with a doc giving them action buffs every 3 hrs. While he did area heals. Then he just afk grinded the crafting tree.

Man, if that guy couldn't grind a combat proff in a day and 1/2 how he ever got to be a Jedi is beyond me. Probably took him a year to grind out his Jedi.
