The secret is the musician class was made to be enjoyed during the trip to master.

First off, the best way I have seen to get healing exp is through diseasing your friends.



Second, you "true" MM's need to get off your high horses. Just because you did musician for the fun of it does not mean that others who do it will have fun. The last week I have spent GRINDING toward MM started as a good thing, but has turned into a nightmare. Healing experience is one of the worst types of experience in the game to receive. There is no way to influence the experience from a player side. In nearly all the other types of experience, the more active the player is, the more experience they receive. Healing experience is the exception. This includes medic healing, however as we all know, there are plenty of people in need of medical healing. Entertainment healing exp is dependant upon people receiving mind wounds and BF, which happen the most in PvP. As we all also know, PvP has dropped significantly since the patch, and therefore entertainer healing exp has dropped as well. You can go to Bestine or AH and have an empty cantina, when previously there would be a dozen customers.


Oh, and I have spent over a week in cantinas now nearly 20 hours a day and not once have I seen a "true" MM complaining about diseasing people or afk musicians. And no I have not AFK'd the whole thing... 85% has been in front of the computer reading a book and actually conversing with people in game. This leads me to believe that the "true" MMs are actually a very vocal minority in SWG, but majority on these boards. Soon I will master musician and immediately drop the profession. I will have new respect for those who take the profession as their own choice, however I will not support your complaints about the afkers and macroers.


Begin flaming now... but I will not respond as I have said what needs to be said.

You can also get Combat Medics to heal the mind of people who happen to be grinding Image Design or have everyone tell their pet to play or doit's trick and the CM can heal the mind up and get wounded there too. Make sure the CM is /listening of course.


Now that CM's can heal mind it's a new source of wounds for us.


This gives the CM mind wounds every time they heal mind.


Lok groups are another place for Healing XP - people hunting Kimo dragins tend to come back with full mind wounds and never go back - lol. They would be happy to hunt Kimo's if a Musician was around. Take a small generic house with you and you can get xp off their BF in the field too, rather than trotting back to the cantina. Passes time a lot faster too, if you help fight.

You got into groups that were powerlevelling healing exp on the back end while you were just starting, so you get it on the front end. Count yourself as lucky. I was 4340 for 2 full days, and have been 4442 for 3 days now. Still 140k entertainer healing experience to go to master, and at about 10-20k per night, I have another week to go.

I was bored at our empty player cantina last night, downside of being european in a non european player city,so I went to Coronet and I witnessed this, people shouting about diseasing their minds and it disgusted me. But since I was bored I tried to get a group invite for about 30 minutes, after 10 minutes I just went to the side and took out my Nalargon and started to play, the next 20 minutes I still didn't get a invite. But I did get healing XP playing by my self, while these macros were shouting to get their minds diseased.


I left when I ran out of action for the 3rd time and I don't feel bad at all for taking away the group's healing xp, I kept asking for group invites and me thanking people for heals told patrons that I was at my keyboard so they listened to me instead of the big group on autopilot.


Oh, just one other thing... If you can only manage 20k Healing XP in 20 hours playing/macro time with diseasing mind then you need to re-evaluate your strategy, since I got upto 60k healing XP in about 5 hours just last week. Took me 10 days for 250k healing xp, 8 of those 10 days only had 3 hours of playing time.

Yep


Pretty sad state.


We went from "tip me!"macro monkeys to "Desease please" monkeys


Or the always popularplayer who announces how much exp he has left to next teir..over and over and over


or


The one who every 5 minutes states how much this sucks, and How could anyone want to play this class!



Hmm perhaps if we tossed them a banana they might go away?

I am currently grinding musician and I see nothing wrong with using any means possible to get to master. I have to do this profession only because my holocron told me to do it. This is fine and I accept that and I will grind it out but do not expect me to like it and choose the slowest way possible. I do not pay $15 a month to stand in the cornet cantina for 8 hours a day. I understand why this is appealing to some people and thats fine as well (Different strokes for different folks) but don't get all cocky about it. If you havent done so already there will come a time where you will neeed to grind something as quick as possible as well. Just my 2 credits, Magically
