Pistoleer Archive

I am now Novice Pistoleer, and I want to master the profession as fast as possible. I would love some tips of how I master this profession as fast as possible =) Can't wait for an answer

-Thanks

I can tell you what i did, whether it is the best way to do it or not, i have no idea.

I went to dantooine with buffs and a good set of kinetic ubese. I did quenker/savage quenker missions from my player city. Good xp, decent money.

I mastered pistoleer in 3-4 days. Also, i broke 1 million credits for the first time from those missions, even though i went through 2 pistols decaying so much from usage and 3 sets of ubese for the same thing.

I have two good, and fun, ways to get pistol xp.

1. Tusken Fort. It's fun...and it gives ya great xp

2. Mamien lairs on Yavin 4. Don't even worry about the missions...just go out and waste a bunch of them. They're pretty easy...don't DB...and there are tons of them all over the place.

Good luck bro

Torturs on Talus. Slow, no DB, low resists. 15k xp per mission. Use a grenade for combat xp on the little ones.

I maxed pistol xp at 900k and my combat xp is in the 200k range.

I second this idea. I did it with my good composit. Open with Bleeds (stack them). Then close for a combo of KD and pointblank2 pointblank2 and healdamage self.

I toss in a few Bodyshot2 or 3s. I clear about 150K of exp an hour (and about 200K in credits).

There are more safe ways to master pistoleer but since your looking for the fastest way. Acquire Fan shot as fast as possible. May try doing some of the missions already suggested above. Once you have fan shot, go to dantooine and find a big group. Go out on missions and if you don't have medic skills....eat some chef food that boost strength, Quickness and Focus (these will reduce the cost of your specials). Get doc buffs if you want, they are even better.

Now you can just stand back while the other players pets or your own get arggo and unload fanshot. You will get massive xp even if you don't do a lot of damage per fan shot. You are simply hitting everything in your line of site (cone area) really fast. you can get 10x the shots off than a master commando can get2 flame cones off. So your damage will add up.

Golden rule when using fan shot in a group: Don't hit the lair after creatures are already out (especially voritor hunters). There's nothing more disliked in a group than a whole lair of poison voritors slowly slaying your group.

Anyway, getting the xp for fanshot will still take some time....but once you get it....the rest of the xp comes extremely fast. depending on how much time you play per day will determine how fast you level up. You can potentailly do it in 2-3 days, maybe shorter if you find groups of 15 or more which basically means more missions and higher level missions per outing.
