Pistoleer Archive

well what do you define as "good" Pistol XP. A friend and I were killing nocuous things(forget the name... there on dathomir) and I was getting about 700 - 800 pistol XP but I was trying not to steel his XP since he was doing Unarmed... if I shot like normal I got uppwards of 2.5k per kill. Lair would give me 4k

Dantooine still gives good pistol XP...average 1.2 - 2.0k per kill. Lair gives pretty much as well.

If not, Dath also worth a shot. Endor..blah...it is a piece of junk now

Fanshot having been changed into this cool new cone, I dropped a few Doctor boxes in order to cash in my saved pistol xp on the Fanshot line. I then leveled the first column in order to get Master in the following manner:

Go to the Kliknik Temple on Yavin IV (-900 -2020).

Send in pet against group of Klikniks, which are social, so that a couple of Klikniks are surrounding the pet.

Waste the Klikniks with the new Fanshot.

The Klikniks give on average 4000 xp each.

Now, I was using a CH-level pet, so perhaps I got a false sense of "ease" out of this technique. However, I believe that one could do this with a Rock Beetle or Mountain Krevol as long as you take care not to get too many Klikniks on your pet at once (and take care to aim your cone so as to avoid aggroing more), especially if you have Medic skills or Pet Stims with which to heal the pet if it come in danger. In fact, before I became a CH I was able to solo this temple (slowly) with a Kahmurra by pealing off the Klikniks one or two at a time. And if you err, you need not worry much, as the Klikniks do not deathblow.

Once the temple and the surroundings are cleared, you can go up to the Woolamander Temple (480, -620)and attack that (about 3000-4000 xp each) while the Klikniks respawn.

Oh yeah, you could be cheap and go inside the Kliknik Temple, exploiting the geometry to get risk free kills. In fact, if you visit, you will almost certainly see people doing just that. But there are many more mobs on the outside, anyway.

And other thing, bring a DX2, as Klikniks are acid vulnerable.

Ditto Dantooine, but since the money is to made on Dath now...stands to reason folks will go there for groupage.

I still like Dantooine though, Huurton Stalkers cough up a nice 2.5k to 3k each, missions payout 9.7k credits. Stalkers are 9300 ham or so 10%resists with vulnerabilities, pretty easy mobs. Could do em with just a Rock Beetle or Mtn Krevol non-ch pet if your careful.

You guys and your pets, rofl. F.u.c.k pets.

shatstorm = d.u.m.b.a.s.s.

Pets = armor.

All of the ones i can think of are gone?

Mutant baz nitches - gone

perlecks - gone

I could goto tusken, but get raped since its empty these days, i could search around dath for 3 hours, but where do we XP now?

the squill caves near bestine are great for xp if you go with a group of five to six peeps ( 100 - 200k xp in an hour) . if you want to solo then go to talus and hunt bull torturs and regular torturs ( 1500 - 2500 xp each) , they are incredibly easy to kill, they spawn like crazy, they dont aggro and their bones were over 970 overall quality last time i harvested them.

Mutant baz nitches are not gone.

I kite Snorbals on Lok. 2.5k-3k pistol experience each, for almost no damage taken, a few seconds of work, and no need for pets of any kind.

Mountain Squills on Tatooine are fairly abundant and are vulnerable to heat, i.e. FWG5. I usually get 4-4.5k pistol xp per mountain squill, plus they usually don't go group and are one of the funniest looking creatures in the galaxy. So you an get a good laugh plus good pistol xp at the same time.

Get a pet and go to Dantooine. Picket Longhorns, Bols, Voritors. All fairly easy prey for a Pistoleer with the right assortment of weapons, and all give between 2000 and 4000 pistol xp. Dantooine is where I did the majority of the grinding on my way to Master.
