Armorsmith: Grind Mandaris chests until you can do Ubese shirts, and then grind the shirts for the rest of the xp.
Grind all the way using Armor Upgrade Kits. You get 63 exp each on these through practice mode, and they take 30 seconds to "bake" in your crafting tool. Ubese shirts give you 126exp each through practice mode, and they take 60 seconds to "bake" in your crafting tool. The upgrade kits use fewer resources, so take the advice of a fellow Holo-grinder and stick with the upgrade kits.
PS: If you have a slicer use your kit within so many meters of your character, you get a UXP bonus of 90exp!
I love this guide, works great for all grinders. In regards to Merchant...
1st step: Pray you don't get chosen for this one.
2nd step: Buy ten small round naboo houses (or small generic)
3rd step: Place them somewhere with empty space (I was able to do this on naboo on the ahazi server, so it's not a horribly impossible task)
4th step: Test your in game friendships, and whether your guild is worth belonging to.
5th step:Set entry fee to 1 credit, and time to fifteen minutes.
6th step: Ask people you know to walk in and out of these ten houses (I put mine in a cute little circle) every fifteen minutes. you could get 500 merchant xp from each single individual every fifteen mintues.. That's 2000 merchant xp an hour... and 20,000 in ten hours... from each individual you can con into doing this for you.
7th step: Focus on the management ladder first, so you can put up vendors. Last I checked if you can get your friends to put something on them you get about 50 xp every three hours from each individual... I don't know if this works on all your vendors, but by the time you have the 6 vendors set up from Management IV the XP almost builds itself... every twenty four hours... so it'll only take you about a month to master Merchant... depending on if you can get people to wander in and out of your houses every fifteen minutes, and play with your vendors every three hours.
8th step: Play with your vendors so they don't get lonely (every three hours shift what you have for sale on them, builds half decent xp...
There could be a 9th step... if you have something to sell... I was steps away from being the most powerful carbinier in the galaxy when the holo recommended this path to me, I don't mind... I actually like trying new things... but the things I have to sell are too expensive for a mere vendor. :-)
Hope this helps... I don't imagine it's earth shattering advice...
Thanks for the rest of this post, it's INCREADIBLE!!!
