On my second toon, I'm Rifleman 2-1-1-2. ShouldI go to the Sennex Cave to rack up some good XP? Never been there before. Any advice? Should I stay away? Would having something tank be any help?

if you do do it - please tell me how that works out. I will add it to the Newb Faq if it works well. A full post on the pluses and minuses would be good as well ^_^

Last time I was there grindign pikeman, the spawns were out of control like geo caves. I get kd'd/dizzy'd and killed, in 80% kin armor. Dunno if has been fixed, I guess you could conceal shot them all and you would be fine!

Still take a chance on aggro with conceal shot. A tank may help, possibly. I heard several Rifleman here mention it in their levelling. I guess I'll just have to see.

I grinded most of my rifleman temp there. I went there at 1001...a couple ofbuff sessions later im 4003. If you are planning to master rifleman I think a DXR would work best on them. I just used a 4.9 speed sliced T-21 and a whole lot of 33% speed / 16% mind power ups. You should have a back up temp just in case they mob u...I have master swords so when things get tough, I just whip some ass..The norm dance/music buffs are a must and mind food/drink. 2-4K xp per kill as well.

I'm a 3/1/0/1 Rifleman, and I just go in with a decent set of buffs, Brandy, Canape, and muon for emergencies. Blue milk too if I have it. They are all ranged in the cave, unless you approach them,that I have seen, so I just go in and spam specials. Mindshot2- Headshot 3 X many works well, and I have found Flurryshot to be useful. If they get to be a group of 3 or 4, I run towards them, get them in a group, and spam pointblankarea1. Also I stay kneeling, so I can heal if I am hurt, and fix states if needbe.

The sennex caves are really pretty godly for rifles, in the last few days i decided to take my jedi unlock toon to rifles/cm, with rifles i got rifles 1, 2 and 3 m0lesting little animals outside of my playercity (having a 230-370 dlt20a helps
), went to sennex caves after that and in probably, 8 hours of grinding total went from 3004 marksman to 4343 Rifleman, granted, at THIS point, maybe 4243 the sennex caves xp drops a lot and it really isn't worth it, but for levelling 75% of the profession i wouldn't go anywhere else. Sped sliced T21 from novice to master with 33% speed 16% mind powerups, and really you are laughing, you may incur 1 or 3 deaths along the way, but hell, with the xp you get in the time you get it out there, its worth it.
I'd honestly recommend it in the faq, great place to lvl! Only wore comp gloves, boots & chest, no helm, and generally was ok

One more question. What city is the closest to shuttle into to get there?

I think Mos Eisly is about the closest, but that's still a trip. Most of the servers I play on have a city within fairly close distance, so activitate your waypoint to the cave, then bring up your Map and see who's closest. If I remember correctly, don't you play on Starsider? If so, the cave is just a 2K swoop trip out of Farpoint.
