i posted this in a different thread, but i thought i should share it with my pike brothers(and sisters).






piket long horns on dantooine


12k per mission


3 spawns


0-3 Piket long horns per spawn. 9-10K health, 45% kinetic defense.
about 3500EXP ungrouped and 4700EXP grouped.


3-7 Piket Long Horn Females per spawn. 9-10K health 10% kinetic defense, and they DO NOT group aggro.
about 3000EXP ungrouped and 4200EXP grouped.


+4000-5000EXP for the lair.
about 6-7 total creatures per spawn.
Suckers for warcry+KD


so...assuming you get a lair taht has 4 females and 2 males(pretty standard)


you get (((4200x4)+(4700X2)) X 3)+5000 = 83,600 expected exp from each lair.
And if you have on good good kinetic armor, you can auto attack them to death and they will never be able to kill you, ESPECIALLY if you have full doctor buffs, and maybe a little regenration mind food.

iv been doing these for a while but they spawn just like regular pickets dude, 3 per spawn, 3 to start, sometimes an extra when they start, an average of 40K xp a lair. Still very good, but its nowhere close to 80K

i am only 0/0/0/2 in the profession thus far but quenkers(any kind) give good xp cept the lairs spawn lots of babies some times...i tend to get 1 baby per lair but thats still 6 qunkers per lair and if one or 2 is a baby that is 4-5 per lair at 4x3100=12400+3500=about 16000 per lair and each one takes 5 mins...so you can get about 10 missions per hour and thatsw 160k per hour...we can even go with 150k per hour to call it even...thats a lot and though they aren't as much as pikets its still easier to solo without muon gold unless you are desperate...so i do quenkers for now...maybe farther along in the skill tree i can do pikets but it seems to take a little more effort and i would be willng to bet that the pay off in terms of diff vs xp is probably relatively equal...this is just my two cents for anyone starting pikeman take it for what its worth

I posted this a while back. Things have changed a little after the creature patch but most of it still rings true.


Heres the link. Enjoy.

well i've been doing the plains walker lairs (higest level mission i can get by myself). there pretty nice. each mission will spawn a total of 9 creatures 2 are usualy babies though. each kill solo is 3150 to 3400 and 4000 to 5000 for the lair. gives me about 30k xp per mission.

I do baz nitches on dath. Their HAM isn't all that high, and light ( < 20% kinetic) armor and no buffs you can take them, assuming you can stim. Piket's don't die nearly fast enough for my taste. We cant hit a muon and a fishak and lay out flurry shot. Also, each lair spawns 6 critters at a set, each for around 3-4k xp

see pikets and baz natches take too long i think...i can kill the savage quenkers and their lair in about 5 minutes...so i can usually deal with two lairs on one muon and come out with about 50k xp...little more if babies don't spawn...you get 6 per lair...3100 xp for me at 0/0/1/2 and i do use bleed attacks so i guess that could drop my xp...haven't tried killing them without using specials...i see everyone getting like 4k xp for all this stuff and wonder how since i am killing the same stuff and only getting 3k...anyways savage quenkers are quick and easy...2 lairs in ten mins means you get like 50k per 10 mins and theoretically you could get 300k an hour...of course sometimes more babies spawn and such but i will definately say i get at least 150k-200k an hour just doing quenkers(savage ones)

I have been hunting Savage Quenkers and get about 3900 per kill. That is with my droid, which I park at the outpost. Without being grouped with my droid, I think I get about 3100 per kill. I am 3-1-3-2. I usually go unbuffed, and still get good xp, but some downtime. With doc buffs and muon gold, I can do two lairs before the muon expires if I am lucky. Usually it runs out near the end of the second mission. Depends on how close the lairs are together.

Without a doubt, pikets are the best xp.


Before various mission nerfs, I grinded on piket longhorn females and fierce protectors.
