Do 2handed 1 and 2 on basic creatures just outside any naboo starport, takes 5mins.
Go to dant get in a group and do quenker missions until novice swordsman.
Get a really good speed sliced hammer, (best one I had was 713dmg 4.1sp with speed tapes and some sp power ups works well.) and go to tha battlefield on corellia.
OR
If you have enough combat xp as I did to go to 0003 swordsman as soon as you get novice you can use a really good dmg sliced scythe right away.
The battlefield is the constant battle between a reb base and 3 spawns of 4 storm troopers and 1 at-st on corellia, its SE of nyax right across the map from tyrenia.
You find a spawn there are 4 troopers that spawn continuosly, and they respawn as fast as you kill them, group with 1 person/bot/pet etc. for the 20% xp bonus and you get 3200-3850xp a kill. true its less than squils but they spawn so fast and so easy to kill it more than makes up for it. If you have a swordsman near by to train you takes no time at all. If none want to kill troopers with you so they can train you you can get trained in the nearest city so go up def column first so you can get your xp cap up to 900k so you can do the other to columns more efficiently.
Doing this I got master brawler and masterswordsman in about 2.5 buff sessions... if that.

I took forever to 'grind' swordy. Maybe because I was Swordy from the start. Heavy axe was the weapon of choice as a noob and I just stayed with it. My first month was swordy kills and I never thought of it as grind. I was greatfull to have the swordy weaps, they kept me alive... most of the time.
Sorry, I was a born swordy in this game. Grind is what I do to make him a better swordy.

Im going to be Master Brawler. I enjoy to grind it, it s a way to discover brawler templates (1H, 2H...).
I think i will continue to swordsman.
I m gonna try grind paths above.,, even if i don t have any good weapons.
How much does it cost to have these stuffs (no "uber", just "good" weapons)?
And i d like to be also BH.
Is Swordsman-BH efficient? I never saw any informations about it. People always speak about Pistol/Carbin -BH.

If the jedi you are fighting is a noob or is a healer/enhancer you can sually get them pretty easy with sowrdsman. If they are 4000 Defender or a knight it will be much harder. The huge melee def they have now and the fight clubbing to get them to masters is make it very tough. You need a stun attack just to try and do some dmg to them which swordman doesn't have. Not to mention that if they are a knight unless you are a melee stacker it is pretty easy for them to KD you and kill you if your just swordsman.
I am new to PVP but I mostly fight jedi, I have only ever faught knights or higher, I have dueled 2 jedi masters. I have a 1080 hammer and I can barely do any dmg to a jedi master and if they have 4000 defender or higher my dmg is reduced quite a bit. I can last a long time against a jedi master, I had a duel with one that lasted about 5mins before he finally got me. From what I have found out if they are stunned I can do dmg to them, problem is I had to go 0002 TK just to get a decent stunhit and it still takes 2-5 hits for it to stick. Not to mention I have to change my weapon every time I get the stun to stick.
I understand that a jedi has put in alot of work and should be tough, but the fight clubbing has allowed most of them to be much tougher than they should be. Just because I choose not to play my jedi doesn't mean I should need 5 people to take out a jedi with a stacking template, an adk on a 48%+ LS resist PSG and an uber hammer. I think jedi are ruining this game especially now that it seems like everyone is going for there knight trials.
I personally hope that if they don't change the FRS farming and the other stupid for jedi things in the CU, that they keep the BUG with BH/pistol where root/kd makes them almost impossible to kill. I would go BH just to kill every jedi I see!
Heh... got off on a bit of a rant there...

Checked out the Warren for 10 mins this morning and the spawns are evil, but im worried that this is classed as an exploit as theres pages about it on Jedi forum, but then again the ST spawn on Coronet has been going for ages so hard to tell. 
Didnt do the grind yesterday as my mind wasnt with it so just finished Marksman and what Medic I needed instead...think ill do the swords tonight.

lets just say i loaf around alot... i could get in in maybe 2-3 buff sessions that were +1900 2h-53min but like i said i "loaf" around alot and not get things done real quick { hint, try to go up the mind hit tree so its alot easyer to kill things, 2 handed hit 2 just doesnt cut it } o and 1 question any one "ever" made anyone blind by doin area attack 3? all i can do is dizzy / kd ppl with it lol

Well was out getting some scout xp and accidentally slayed a bantha with my heavy axe..so started the grind early. Was nice to get to 0-0-1-0 in one swipe...and 0-0-2-0 in 3 more hits on banthas. Got to 0-0-4-0 very fast in about 3 lairs or so of stuff but was playing on an alt at the same time.
Im going to time going from getting novice swords to master...im still hoping itll be under 3 hrs.

I havent played in a long time - im talkin over a year. I was first master swordsman on my server. It took me maybe a week to get it. Back then it was easy. Go to the tuskan camp and AE swing and KS everything. Learn the spawn patteren (they spawned really fast then) and just own. I had a doc on follow and healed me when i swung or got hit occasionally. I killed the rifle wielders in one shot doing upwards of like 6k dmg. A lot of people got pissed, but I got my exp. I have no clue how much has changed now, so my advise or example is prolly not any good. Im about to find out how much has changed.
