Pistoleer Archive

This is not necessarily for everyone, but I came across a HUSE XP generator for me on Yavin.

Descriptionof "party":

Me - TKM, Pistoleer 0-0-1-3

My Wife - Master Doc, TK 4-3-4-3

Coming back from the geon caves, Buffed, No armor for me, 2 BE Brandies, 1 Canupe or whatever its' called. We run across a Crystal Snake lair, anyways....

Nyn, my wife, goes in and does the Spin attack for unarmed, lower dmg, but at her level she can put some punch behind it. She targets teh lair. I target the Snakes. I didn't count them, but I would be willing to bet that when we were done they spawned like 15-20 snakes, and many of those the Giant Crystals.

I was unarmored as I indicated, she wore only Chest, Boots and Gloves. Neither of us was ever in ANY jeopardy t speak of. You get Poisoned, but the buffs really absorb it very well.

We hit like 4 lairs on the way back. I trained before logging 0-0-2-4 and am more than halfway through to Tech 3...I would say I am 250k out of the 350k I need.

I am thinking with her tapping most of everything I hit, I was getting over 3500 per Giant, and like 18-2300 for the "regular" Crystals.

Just an experience that surprised me. Tonight I am just DYING to get Fan shot. With her tanking for me, spamming her Area, and me banging Fan Shot.....WOW, the Xp should ROLL...

I for one am thinking I need to try tobecome the Great Giant Crystal Snake Hunter..

Take it for what it is. And sorry if you all already knew of this. But I have really only seen the obvious of Quenkers, Pikets or whatnot on Dant.. Which are great too, especially solo. I personally believe with a decent set of Kenetic Armor, Meditate, and a decent powered pistol, you can make more xp solo on these snakes than the Quenkers. I am gonna try tonight. Only draw back, is out of the southern outpost, there are no mission terminal that I could see....but didn;t look TOO hard..

I ground out about 400-500K Pistol XP for smuggler in about six-seven hours on two buffs on two days doing just that. Mawgaxes are good too, and Klikniks are a little more irritating but still worth it.

I do quenkers when I am not worried about buffs. I have a macro that basically fanx4, then heal self. Pop 2 brandies, 1 Canupe or whatever it's called.....and just spam the lair. 80% Composite of course. I extremely rarely ever get in any real trouble.

when buffed(90% of the time due to my in game wife as a doc) I am heading to Yavin more and more. I just WALK to the Geon cave and back, unless I have a group waiting for me there. Last night, I got about 350k xp in roughly 1.5 - 2 hours.

I counted last night where I didn;t the other night, 11 Giant Crystals, 6 "Regular" Crystals, 3 Baby's. The giants gave me right around 4-5k, the regulars 2-4 the babies were inconsequential. Do the math, it was roughly 60-75k per lair. And that is the last lair where I said, you know what? I should count this.. And at that I may of missed a few due to my wives penchant for harvesting in the middle of the battle and they disappeared before I coule account for em..

BTW, I do have the best tank in the game.....a Master TK... She just mastered last night...those snakes are great. And they truly are soloable.

Yavin is my new favorite hunt spot..
