Thread: Best way to get Pistol xp?
Langlatches on Lok were superb for a few boxes into pistoleer. At some point theyare all white con or lower, but before then they are a top notch hunting place.
Lok is like a weak version of endor...very very high lair density. And to boot, you get langlatch missions at the terminal, so you get cash and XP. Often I would run into a lang lair next to another one. I could rotate spawn and keep the lairs up until I got bored with it...worked quite well. Just watch out for pirates and humanoid agressives...if range = 64 they kill you.
For people looking for Sharnuffs and Tabbages on Corellia check out an area near the center of the map. Draw a line from Tyrenea to Doaba Guerfel and from Coronet to the northwestern town (sorry blanking on the name) and where they meet you'll see some elevations where two rivers come close together. There's a series of mesa's in this area with a lot of rare and aggressive creatures. One day, wandering through, I saw a couple of herds of Sharnaffs and wiped out about 5 tabbage lairs.
Also I agree with the person who posted above about Leviasqualls on Rori. They give excellent exp but can take a while to kill.
For the person who was having trouble targetting the Kima's there's a trick that I just found out a few days ago. When you get blips on your head's up radar face in their direction and start hitting your "Tab" key. This will target and cycle through the available npc's and creatures in that direction. It makes life a lot easier

So, from what i read the best planet to get xp is Talus and next is Cor whatever i forgot the name lol...
the name of my gun i dont remember lol, but it has 22-123 damage and 3.1 speed whatever lol...
its pretty good since i cant use my better pistol since im 30000 xp away from pistol specialist, then goin to pistoleer...
i wont be able to play for about a week or maybe less since my parents are divorced i have to stay at my moms house and the comp here sucks and cant run SWG so ill go hunt when i get back to my dads house![]()
and yah i read all that u ppl wrote and well im a bit confused, what are the slow moving creatures on Talus? my buddy was playing when he was at my house and he started on talus and saw them but i forgot the name
thx
Your bannished.
You bugged Kimas? Shame on you.
Those things hit you for serious damage. It's good they are slow. I still made major leaps in the use of tactics regardless of how slow they are.
I havn't been able to find a reliable source for those Ferals....usually I just make a run out to the Sarlacc from Bestine, work my way down to Wayfar, then back over to Bestine. I pop anything along the way and since I have my partner with me, we can take on stuff like some of the dewbacks for exp as well if we can isolate a couple.
Some nights I'll run into bunches of them, other nights not a single one. If anyone knows a more reliable location to find ferals on Tatooine I'd love to know as I want to up my skills a little more before going off planet to Lok, Talus, or Endor.
The trick is to watch the clock I find. Sure I can get 1500 from a kima, but it takes say 5 minutes to kill one. If I can find a couple of those birds on Talus (little things, almost impossiable to target) i can kill them in 2 shots, get 500-600 exp, they normally group, so tab targetting allows me to kill say 4 or 5 in no time (5 minutes)...so I see that I made 1500 on the kima or 3000 on the birds.
Also gotta factor in downtime in thier as well I Suppose. Kima never touch me. Birds do. I make my own stimpackC, so my downtime is nil....but sometimes it is there.
