where should i go to gain xp fast for a novice pistoleer like me? and i do not have any pets to aid me

Go to Rori, Find levisqualls, deranged squalls, and midnight or twlight vir vurs. They all look like steroid crazed bunny rabbits. Bleed them and then kite them. They run a bit slower than you do so you can just kite them in circles. Once you get fanshot, this becomes even easier.

Torton mission on Talus. They are level 20-28ish. You might need to group with your mount or a probot to get them.

They are approx 3K xp per kill.

Prone/bleed pull them 1 at a time.

Sort of related question (not looking in terms of XP, just in terms of fun):

What "special content" type stuff (i.e., theme parks, special quests, etc.) are both fun and achievable for a soloing Novice Pistoleer?

hmmm ive been soloing on dath the past couple of days.

no pets, just me a buff and my trusty pistols. take some giant baz missions 11k ones, and get buffed first.
im gettin about 4800 pistol xp each baz, so every lair im gettin a rough 30k pistol xp.
im a master, and also got smuggler pistol skills, but it wouldnt be that hard for a novice, just dont attack anthing else lol.

should have u set in no time.

will the baz nitch attack you in herds if you attack just one of them?

yup they do usually, but 99% of the time there is only 2 of em at one time, unless u accidentally shoot the lair.

just make sure u got a buff and its easy pickings. get a good dx2, in fact any pistol, i just prefer the dx2 at close range is all.

I have been doing really well in the Narglatch cave on Naboo. Its been pretty much forgotten by everyone, because there is no loot (traditionally empty mag-seal containers only). The Narglatches are white to me, and I can handle it even if 3-5 swarm me. They only give 2.5-3k XP each kill, but you can clear the whole cave in an hour and pick up 80-100k xp. Nice little trip without the hazzards of Dath.

I am only a 2-2-3-2 Pistoleer.

Get in a group on Endor or Dantooine.

i have a tryed going 2 dant in groupsbut as every one is using a flamer or a llc or is a tka. I always get naffy exp like 300 per picket. It sort of blows. try banthas i can solo them at 1,1,2,1 around 700exp each but good wooly hide so i make some money as well.

i just buff, 80% armor, and roam around dantooine killing huurtons, pickets, voritors and queckneers. slinking / horned/ grassland voritors are doable, but they take longer.

Well, if it moves, shoot it. That means if you're waiting for a shuttle around a newb area, kill the npc's. 30 xp is better than no xp. As for bigger stuff, check out its resists, armor, and if it db's. If it doesn't db, go for it. That's how I've been doing things lately. Just gotta experiment and figure out which critters are social.

Hope this helps.

I usually try to kill stuff that doesnt' DB in case Ishould get owned.... but otherwise i try to stick to creatures that give 3k xp. they usually die pretty fast, and they give great xp. when you need 3.6Million pistol xp for master, 3k/kill is only 1200 kills. so it makes it more encouraging...
