i spent so much cash buffing, buying burly rifles, and getting a case of brandy that i'm down to about 100k. i need to get some cash so what drops holos, skill tapes, and other good crap that i can auction off. where do you all do your hunting to make some of that cash back, and what do you just enjoy hunting after master makes you a killer PvE character?

Get buffed, got to Dant and do Picket missions, 9K+ per mission, you can rack up a bunch of cash quickly. If you don't like pickets try voritors.

Or get buffed head over to Yavin 4 Labor outpost and hit up the Geonosian Caves. On my server(Chilastra) I went there tonight, about 4 other people were there, I was doin great till someone got me killed, but after only being there about 25-30minutes, I raked in 33items total.

I find that I don't need to be buffed for Dant. or Endor missions and I can usually rake in couple 100k for few hours work. Bonus $$ if you have scout skills and can harvest the corpses!!

high risk/high reward krayts. the value of pearls is pretty high as are the value of krayt tissues. if you luck out and get a set of 11 they can pull in millions for a set like that.

get another person to group with you at the mining outpost and you can pull Graul Mauler missions for 11k on Dant, all you need is a moun and you can usually do 2 lairs before the downer, thats 22k in like 10 mins.

If you are Master Rifle and you loot 11 ident Krayt tissues and sold them, well I would slap you in person. Krayts have good loot but if you get 6+ instead of selling have a custom weapon made. 6 = Dxr6B Krayt, or Jawa Krayt. If by some miracle u got 11 identical, Krayt T-21. Image what a Pre-Nerf T-21 would be Krayted, ooo the leetness.

Grr, my story. My friend and I hunt krayts fairly regularly. We've made quite a bit of money from selling pearls and tissues and whatnot. Well, anyways I went on a shopping spree and blew a ton of cash on new toys. Well, the next day he's outwith someone else and they loot a krayt with 11 matching +80 tissues. In tears, I had to tell him that it would be unfair for me to take his tissues since I can't afford them, so he'd have to sell them. He sold them for 10 million dollars to a weaponsmith who undoubtedly will make my dream gun that some rebel will use to kill me...
Anyways, back to your question.
- Krayts on Tatooine are great fun - grouping is pretty much required for riflemen unless you like the mind-numbing challenge of trying to not bleed or draw aggro as they roam using conceal shot for 45 mins or so. It's still pretty cool to take one down, especially if your group is small.
- Kimoglias on Lok are a challenge - again, groups or pets are pretty necessary.
- Peko Peko Albatrosses north ofKaadara(I think that's the city in the NE, brain freeeze)on Naboo. They hit hard and use status effects to reduce your defenses and do high damage.
- NS's &Singing Mtn Clan witches on Dathomir are tough and some are nigh impossible for riflemen. Post your stories on killing an elder if you do it, their resists to our damage types are crazy high (aka 100% to all our normal dmg tyes).
- Force sensitives on dantooine are great. For some reason they sit still more than other MOBs so you can solo them with conceal easier than comparable MOBs.
- Anything in the Geno cave is a serious challenge that usually requires a nice group and a doc to help back ya up.
- Cash missions are the same old thing. If you're looking for safe, easy cash, you can use Strf2 on savage quenker lairs and kill anything that comes out before it gets to you, thereby taking out entire 11k missions in about 2 mins. Round trip at 22k a piece in less than 10 missions, solo. Boring as hell though. If you're looking for better payout with similar ease, you can do janta or mokk missions for 25k on dantooine at about the same pace. Kill the 3 or 4 10k mobs outside the lair and then just wail away. If they get close to you and you're unbuffed, you'll be db'd, but the payout is very nice. Buffed you can do these missions all day. 50k worth of missions, round trip in 10 mins = 300k per hour. Not bad if you need cash.

Man, that Lance is nasty! The +25 counterattack will make a pikeman almost unhittable. The damage ain't good, but if they can't be hit.. jeeeze.
Must beware the intimidate though.
