It was super fun with all tanking, healing tanks, healing myself because healer should be the tankbecause of stupid agro system against 15 pikets and all. I was the only non-Jedi in group, saber clashes and all, to be honest, it was super fun.


However, it had to end after4 lairs... (like what?40 minutes) because I had to go train 4000 CM, I would not dream of that much XP and600K of weapon xpI'm one people who supports group fun and group rewarding however this comes to me a little bit absurd. if I do, 16 lairs more, I am MCM that means.


Group XP is a bit overloaded, however, it should not be nerfed, grouping should be "prefered" for progression. But has to be cut down with a logical explanation so people prefers groups more than that. Being one of the most fun moments of my last 1 year, reminding me first days of the game, but seeing how I can master proffessions in "hours" makes me sad a bit. Even we don't notice, -not for jedi , out of commission- we consume proffessions so fast, so game getting killed slowly.


Just wanted to share to this lovely community.







The upside is, that now you can grind out Fencer, or Carbineer, in less than a week, and be more "rare" than the other people who played for months, and months, to get a character that basically has a few extra sound effects.


Better yet, Master Combat Medic, and Squad Leader, and every Jedi (everyone) will beg you to join thier group.


Talk about "bizzaro" universe that we now have in SWG, Jedi IS the most NORMAL profession now.


Too funny.

I think we were able to “tell” better stories, when we had player interdependency, and multiple, variable classes.

Just out of curiosity...... if you were enjoying it that much then why go train? You are allowed to just be a medic in a group because you're having fun healing people you know... lol

I'm sorry if I have a life and don't consider grinding a "worthwild" experience...Grinding sucks, plain and simple.... The game should be driven by Content, not grinding/nerfing..


I'm sorry for being harsh but I dont understand why peeps keep screaming nerf....

jedi get 1/6 the amount of exp everyone else gets. i agree that for other non-jediproffessions there getting too much exp, tone it down, but dont touch jedi.

Battle is like Life, no shortcuts to sucess. Some times a new path appears where none was visible before. In this respect, such things as a secret to fighting may not exist at all.

Do Jedi actually get less XP, or is that 1/6 just relative to the total amount needed to complete the template?


(Sorry, haven't ground out any Jedi XP lately).

Hehe np... It can also mean Quoted for Emphasisfrom the Urban dictionary but I tend to find the other definition more appilicable usually...

Hehe just wrote a post on that...



But keeping this thread on target... I feel it is better to have a quick grind to mastery because the fun of the game forme is being a master and doing all the quests, pvp, etc and NOT grinding. Grinding even with my friends seems to take me away from a lot of interaction with others in the game.
