Ok, I'm a Master Ranger now. I'd like to try some of the quests\Theme Parks that are in the game. Only I don't want to start one that is broke.


Would you mind telling me the best working quests\Theme Parks you have done, and where I go to initiate them?


Thanks.



Donlad DeLuge,


Master Ranger,

Unless you are significantly advanced in a combat-based profession or are a CH, you will probably not be able to complete any of the theme parks without alot of help.


I tried to the Rebel CorSec base Theme Park as novice Carbinier and was shocked when the third mission was to escort a Rebel and low-and-behold ... THREE GK Stormtroopers appear to kill him (9k HAM each, challenge level 25 each).


Good luck.

Or as I did go Overt at the base buy 3 faction pets - some marines and a Heavy weapons expert and I have a droid. Then do the missions go covert when you are done & wait at the base for an hour until your flag is off.

I really enjoyed the Bug Bomb mission. Getting up close and personal with the Sarlaac was pretty cool. Lemme know if you want spoilers, Donald. Cheers

I did the rebel theme park 2 days ago. Did all Missions up to Leia 1 solo without any pets. Im a 4144 Ranger and 0131 Pistoleer and novice Medic. Just use some stealth, run in the right moment and it works.


Oh...forgot...HealthShot was almost essential for teh kill missions.Also there are many Rebel NPC around who shoot on the Stormtroopers. Almost all my mission targets were already engaged in combat with other npc.

I did the entire Rebel Theme Park (well, after Han you can't go anywhere) without any help. You just have to use the Rebel NPC's for cover. There are Rebel's all over the place, you just have to find the ones closest to your mission waypoint. Then attack from maximum distance and "pull" the enemies to the Rebel NPC's. While the Imperials fight the Rebel's you either run and grab your "package" or help the Rebel's kill the Imperials.


As for the Han missions, I completed some of the more difficult ones by using a run and gun tactic. I shoot one bandit and pull him and his friends away from their original spot. Eventually all but one break off and you take on the remaining bad guy. Heal up and repeat until you complete the mission. It is not easy but not all that hard either. However, you MUST be able to self heal.

I did the whole rebel theme park in an afternoon. Best advice is to get a couple of buffs, one when you start and one before you leave corellia. easiest way to do it all. Of course, being Master TKA does help against the Stormtroopers.


Now looking for the next big challenging theme park, since Nym's was such a pushover. Think it's gonna have to be the Rebel CorSec base!

The Rebel theme park was fairly easy, tho I would wait til Master Pistoleer was in place if you want to solo.


Nym's was fun, easy and only took me 45 minutes. Solo.


Jabba has cool loot, and is fairly easy. You could do that one now - the hardest targets are animals. Solo,


Valerian has better loot, but the targets are harder. Still an easy solo.


The gungan theme is a joke, no good loot,no badge. Don't waste your time.


The Warren. Bring help unless you are TK and can heal. Don't solo.


Can't do the Imp park... but it's all on one planet. On par with the rebel theme from what I hear.


Borvo is fun, easy, and you get a Krayt skull. Solo, but be careful at times you have yellow cons.


The corvette. Go for the badge, get killed a lot, big black line disease. Good loot, if you find any.


DWB - no thanks. Friends say unless you got a rezzer, don't go. Then have a large force with a ton of firepower.


Geo cave. Go with a group, buffed and armored.


Did Jabba, Valarian and Reble themes twice, they are fun.

Just an expansion on the DWB: Bring armor, buffs (doctor and entertainer), chef food, good weapons, and lots of friends.With a good group, your biggest opponent is time. You really need to work hard to finish before your buffs wear off. A rezzer is not as important as you think: if you die, you lose your buffs making you mostly useless anyway (you should only bother rezing crafters and other important players, like CMs with mind heal. Rezzing a combat character is almost pointless, especially if they are melee). It is a lot of fun but you really need to come prepared. Oh, and use a chat channel as you probably want more than one group's worth of players (depends on the makeup--one group with enough firepower can move a lot faster than two but you have to bring the right combination of players).

Don't forget Mat Rags (in Mos Espa at -2977 2458). He gives the bol hunters trophy as an award.... A must have for any ranger.

Just to add to someone's post who said that after Han in Lok you can't do anything, once you finish with Han's missions you head to Dantooine to the rebel base, where you'll find Akbar and Mon Mothma, finish with Mothma and she'll send you to the Jedi Temple in Yavin 4, where you'll do missions for General Dodona and finally Luke Skywalker.

I did the whole Rebel theme park solo, same as Jabba's.

A word of advice for the corvette... leave your armor home, as well as ANY items that will decay because, to put it mildly, you WILL die a "few" times. Depending on which corvette you do, if you finish you're guaranteed the badge and an AV-21 schematic (once you talk to the guy in Kor Vella).

Jabba's was easy too, your only problem will be finding a crap load of valarians now that everyone's doing the themeparks. If you're master of any elite combat profession you shouldn't have any problems.

If what you're looking for are the badges, then do the Warren while a LOT of ppl are doing it, this basically guarantees that you will not have to fight. Buy the letter and the 4 evidence disks before hand and you'll get your badges REAL fast. The letter needs to be delivered to a widow inside the Warren, and the disks to Captain Huff inside the Theed library. This one's easy if you buy or get the items from a friend before hand.

I did the Rebel themepark unbuffed and solo (i was armored). I was a master smuggler, novice tk, and had a box or two into pistoleer. I fought everything with TKA with a knuckler equipped. I'd wait for the ST's to spread apart and took out the one i needed to kill. I never went near them until my TEF wore off. Took me a little while but I did it. I did Nym's themepark unbuffed but armored as a BH (had two boxes in the LLC line). I think i had it easier since i think someone came through right before me and killed the droideika (or however the crap you spell that).


I did Jabba's the same way as Nym's. I'm starting to do Jabba's now as a novice Rifleman, and getting close to novice ranger. I'm trying to do it mostly unbuffed. I have brandy so i won't kill my mind when i do specials and i have neutron pixie and muon for emergencies. My problem so far isn't the missions themselves but the mobs that the missions spawn near.
