I'm interested in Pistols because i've used 'em before and thought they were the most fun, but i found it hard to find a creature that gives enough xp (that i can single) so that thePistol profession goes smoothly

I suppose camping someplace with a high respawn rate is pretty fast, like Fort Tusken or the Geo Caves. However I have equipped an FWG5 and taken Malklocs which have a heat vulnerability for a good amount of XP. Really the only problem with this is the random agro stuff on Dathomir that walks over and sticks you with a nasty disease or otherwise messes with your grinding.


I would say that if you're not worried about credits or harvesting anything just hang out at a rapid respawn place. If you want credits for completing a mission or something to harvest hit Dathomir, Dantooine or Endor and find a creature that has a very low resist or better yet, a vulnerability to the damage type of your best pistol.


I also wrote a stupid little macro that just spams whatever attacks I'm using so I just click on a target and activate the macro and I don't have to keep hitting my hotkey to spam my special.

What I did after getting Fanshot was solo-grouping on Dathomir with Kamurith Snapper missions. There were 4 per lair, depending on solo-group size, and I was getting 4.6-5k XP per beastie plus 5k per lair. You're looking at 60k XP per lair and they go down quick to any pistol with AP. Much faster than Rancor.

The quickest way to level up is, not doing it atall. I love Pistoleer but for PVP we are worthless unless we have BH pistol 4. On PVE we can manage but if your soloing, forget it..

Well when i started on my way to master i had BH pistols 4 already. I went to the geo cave and started wasting crazed geonosions and was recieving 5000 xp a kill on average. Needless to say i mastered in about 10 hours(not strait of course).

I don't know what its like on your servers but right now Malklocs are dropping herb. meat (on radiant) that is selling for 100 cpu, check your galaxy trade forums for things like this if you have scout. Its always a good idea to hunt something that will get you some extra money letting you sell stuff you harvest if this is an option for you.


I also went to the geo caves today as was suggested by some people here and its a good idea, leveling would go quickly there.
