this game was never really made for soloing. it was made for group play, that is why it is a MMO.


that is why you are changing CH right now. and BH may not even be as good as they should be for it taking 213 skill points to master it.

Actually, I find thatmoney isn't in the crafting nor is it in the Mission running. Money is in the resources.


If you want to make a quick buck or two (or 100k or 500k), pick up Novice Artisan, craft yourself either a chemical or mineral survey tool, buy yourself a couple of heavies and a lot of power and plop them down.


Each resource shift lasts about 7-8 days, so you can make 2 harvester runs in that time. If you manage to survey a good spot and a good resource (which only takes maybe an hour), you'll be making money really fast.


Keep in mind, though, that 95% of the fun in this game is the experience, rather than the end result. Money won't bring you happiness - though it might help fund that trip to Endor from time to time.

As a higher-up pistoleer (say, 4/3/4/4), I could grab 1-3 stormtrooper faction pets, and run level 45 destroy missions at the Dantooine Imp outpost ALL DAY. In fact, that's what I did do, because I was trying to get faction for a AT-ST.


Turns out I also ended up with a million bucks in the process.

If you know what you are doing you can solo Bol missions on Dantooine with only pistol 4 and ranged support 4, pick up novice medic and its easy as hell.

No artisan skills, none, zero.


650k in the bank, house, 2 wind gennies, 3 harvestors. I sell some stuff, mainly use it. I do sell hides and bones, seldom meat as all anyone does is whine about the OQ. Generates enough money to run the house and machines.


I run destroy missions, either solo or with a partner, usually at the 3-4k, level 23/24 range. Couple of these and its 6k profit, easy. The xp varies, but it's not bad.


So what's your question? Get some skills and you get more money per mission. I am a double master about to go triple (Scout/Ranger/Pistoleer). Every block I fill in Pistoleer gets me better missions and more creds. Sitting in here isn't making you any money, you got to do it the old fashioned way, you gotta earn it.

Rock on JBMat

yeah...good tactics on a challenge planet, harvesting high quality resources

I have 5k in the bank...2 houses...and a ton of guns, and cool cool stuff.

I hunt with a master combat medic...or a TKA/ Doctor...and we make 50k an hour....

DO NOT make the missions easier, I love the challenge.
