I apologize. I should not've said that, and I'm sorry. Post all your methods, it is fine with me.

Please, if you want to make a "how to level" guide, then post it straight on the board, not in my guide please.
Why not have different methods in the same thread? A dozen separate "how to level" threads don't help anyone. There's more than one way to do it, and suggestions from others take nothing away from your guide.

Hey,I just wanted to tell everyone how I did it. When I first started to play,I got the feeling that you have to have buffs/armor/brandy to grind. Well,so isnt the case. It works excellent to grind in "middle-class" if you just play for fun and dont hologrind. Btw,whit the new system,grinders are dead!

It's a great guide for anbody who needs help I am really happy someone put some effort in this.
I would suggest only one thing... for Master Brawlers: Get Offense I instead of Defense I first. You already have a knockdown attack (PolearmLunge2), so you don't need another. And LegAttack2 is very useful skill.

JLG88, how doesSOMETIMES doing more damage toa single target help when fighiting 5-10 creatuers at once?
By just using that KD while you have 5-10 creature near you instead of a KD loses you 4-9kish damage ...
Area attacks are the only way to level up in a decent amount of time.

me and my friend are slowly working up pikeman doing quenkers together. atm we are both polearms 3, but we can take them down. we get good xp doing this, but do you recommend us spliting up to get to polearms 4, maybe going with a stronger fighter? By the way we aren't hologrinders, we both love pikeman. and also if we stay together, what should we hunt?

Kaz I would stick with your friend. As long as neither one of you gets too far ahead of the other you will be splitting the EXP pretty evenly and things will die faster having less time to hurt you. My friend in game leveled up a lot of his TKA while playing with me once you both have an AE attack it is fast and fun exp.

Use a long vibro axe as soon as its available...just get a speed sliced one, the superior damage and armour piercing helps the grind to novice pikeman. And Never do savage quenkers as they now Kite, instead do Huurton stalkers. ( 10k missions on Dant )

Can't say I agree with the guide.
At Nov Pikeman, I'd hunt on Dantooine until I was xxx2, while leveling the stances line for speed and spin2. Once xxx2, I'd head to Endor and seek out gurreck forest stalker or any sort of robas. They give around 3.6-4k xp, but they come in huge packs. A good natural spawn will have 4-5 of each, with a total of 16-20 in the spawn. Just attack the lair once, then area attack until you're surrounded by dead bodies. After you hit 4xx2, you can pull 450k xp an hour. There's probably a better way, but Endor wooly hide is also a bonus. Downside? You burn through armor, quick.
