I run Savage Quenker missions on Dantooine, fast xp there. Just get a dx2 for the acid damage and you're set. They don't net as much xp per lair as Piket missions do, but they're so fast (2-3 mins each) that you can gettwo done and be heading back for more in the time it takes to do one Piket mission. (From my experience at least). If you can work your way up to Fan Shot, you can take these suckers out really fast.

You can solo pikets as a marksmen. Last time I did it, I used a set of 60% kinetic Ubese and some 30% kinetic PSG (I’m and armorsmith). The PSG’s will beuseless after 3 pikes but they only do like 10 points of damage to me. All I used was health hit 1 to bleed. The easiest and cheapest way is to get full doc buffs and ubese armor.

i can solo pikets at 0022 pistoleer... what i do is crouch with my Dx2 or fwg5.. depends sometimes heh....


start off with healthshot 2, then i spam body shot 2 till he comes running up, i melee defence 1 him so hes KD then i run away and spam bodyshot2 till he dies or incaps me.... once i get up if incapped i just shoot him from prone till he dies....


sure it may be cheap buts its very effective.... of course you can use healthshot 1 and stack the 2 bleeds but not after the next patch :x

I usually go out with a full set of buffs, though, it's not so much needed if you take them out fast. And my current set of composite is 80% kinetic. They are agro, but only two spawn at a time. They're a fairly fast creature, so they're right on you if you run. They also have a ranged attack, so at times they'll be right up on you attacking, but then move back and do some spitting attack. They don't poison or anything like that. With a set of buffs and even less % armor, they'd still be pretty easy.


Until I started using Fan Shot on them, my tactic was to hit one with Health Shots, then KD it, and at that point, spam your best. In my case it was Stopping Shot. Not quite as quick this way, but it still gets the job done and is much faster than taking out a Piket.

I dont know how much queckers give you but you can mix it up if oyu cant find a group... and since you have a fwg5 tortons shell out (no pun intended) nice xp at about 1k per torton...

Im a master commando and decided to drop my TKM and get master pistoleer so I could have fun with my launcher pistol. I found that if I go to Dath, I can lay down 2 or 3 burn DoTs on rancors (100% heat resist). The initial blast does not harm them, but then I switch to my DX2 and spam kip up or stopping shot. I was getting almost 5K pistol exp. per kill. And they would drop pretty quick.

I HIGHLY recommend doing Savage Quenker missions on Dantooine. With a pet grouped I get 3923xp per and they are quite easy with a DX2. Only 2 spawn at the beginning...kill those, hit the lair for 2 more, kill those- hit the lair for 2 more and youre done. If you are buffed and wearing any 1/2 way decent armor then these things are no match
