Don't grind, go to an adventure planet like Lok or Dathomir where a good camp is appreciated
A good camp is never appreciated.
In a large group, there is always some aspiring BH who "needs" to pitch camps, and our camps don't really afford any real benefit over the tiny single person camp right now.
My advice:
If you want to grind, pair up with a doctor or artisan who also needs to grind. Let the doctor come out to your fieldbase and use the chem station to make stimpaks, or just grind BECs for a couple of hours.
Pitch your camp as close to a major town as possible, preferably right in the path of all the newbies going to do their missions. They'll wander by and see your camp about 300m off. The field bases are quite a site still. Not many people have seen them yet.
The wandering people will gawk at your camp, and give you some conversation while you wait.
Set your in game timer for 10 minutes. Always keep another camp made, and when the timer goes off, tear down and build another one immediately.
You will not get max XP for the camp, but you should get about 1000 out of your typical fieldbase. Every 10 minutes.... you do the math. Still takes a long time, but the nice people wandering by make it tolerable.
This is how I ground from Frontiering III to Frontiering IV in two days and made master.
