What combos do you suggest to use?


I regularly switch between VL and LVA depending on the armor of my opponent


I'm currently a 0/0/3/1 - soon to be 0/0/4/2


Suggestions for my level and higher levels would be helpful


thanks in advance

thinking of attack combos. I currently use brandy/plus some food which increases my accuracy + decreases my knockdown, as well as blood chowder sometimes in case I run across some heavy bleeders. I do use muon gold on the off chance I really lose my blue

i went 4/4/3/0 first, cos then i just attack the lair and use KD 2, andthen area attack 2 over and over again, this way u kill mobs with minimum effort, and with 4/x/x/x ur speed will be much greater, i was using this since 0/2/1/0 with KD 1 and area attack 1.

its easy using venom-filled arachane on endor, nice 4.5k-5k for each one and use this method u can get about 100k of xp in about 3 missions, and a nice 33k cash to boot.

I worked up my defense tree first to 0030, then all the way up stances, then up offense, and finished off defense. Don't worry about when you get your support line... as you get steadily better, you'll get your support tree and tackle bigger baddies (I started out 0000 and worked up the hard way, it can be done, and quite easily).


You can get the same xp and credit reward from Giant Baz Nitches on Dathomir. I'd drink brandy (which I bought specifically for grinding), and go nuts (dropping Muon only when things got really bad). See, the Giant Baz Nitches spawn in pairs... 2 are out, after hitting the lair a couple times (and I mean a couple), two more come out, and then a third set of two. You can easily intimidate them both, and then work on them one at a time, as it's far easier on your HAM bars that way.


Lunge 2 (or Polearm Sweep 1, if you don't have Master Brawler), followed by a couple of PH2s, and repeat the PH2 until stun sticks... then just toy with them.


Also, disregard what their resistances to damage types say... you will do more damage with an LVA than a VL against them.


Now go. Kill.

Not sure but I think those things have a poision attack or something, but on Dath, you can get Giant Baz Nitch mission, 11k a piece, and you get about 20k of xp per lair....just buff you self up good even with no armor youll do fine...

5k per beastie and 5k for the lair... about 35k. Good times.
