Well last night I finally did it, I hit Master Rifleman while out hunting Rancors with some friends...
My goal now is.... I need to make some money to be able to purchase skill tapes and the like, so my question is... What and Where to hunt, to gain the best money?
The best i've seen thus far are large groups on Dathomir getting into the high 30k missions, or if u get a crazy amount of people, into the high 60k missions.
Is their anyplace better?
How many people does it take to get the 30k+ missions?
How many people does it take to get the 60k+ missions?
What type enhancements should I be buying for my weapons now... I know that unless my gun is 4.0 speed or faster, I do not speed cap with FlushingShot2, and that the gun has to be 3.0 or faster to speed cap with Strafeshot2.
I understand that in most cases Flushing2 will outdo Strafe, at least until I am able to get my speed up via attachments of some sort. I've used an online gun damage calculator to see that. I've also noticed that even without hitting the speedcap with Flushing2, that often times a gun with dmg mods, just do more damage per second.
So when I go out to buy power-ups, what am I looking for? I am assuming I should for the most part go for Max Dmg power ups.... or is their something better or more efficient?
Thanks in advance...

well if you join a solo group on dant thats about half full and find a town with the improved job market specialization, you can pull 31-33k mokk and janta missions. As master rifleman i can do one of these missions in less than a min, about 30 seconds for the mokks and 30 seconds for the lair spaming strafe2. You do need full doc buffs and some mind buffs ( as zabrak i need musician+brandy but humans my only need brandy) and some descent kenetic armor. with a little luck you can make almost 800k in one set of musician buffs or almost 1mil in one set of doc buffs.

Group up guys on Dath. Get yourself a Disruptor rifle and blast those Bull Rancors. Disruptors cut through everything on Dath is seems like.
If you kneel, Mind Bleed, peace, run back a few meters.. you can separate them and handle them solo (then you can keep all the money yourself), unbuffed without a problem. I looted a nice pair of Bone Armor pants (nice skill mods)off a Bull Rancor.

At speed cap if you just fire at the lair you should kill them all in less than 30 secs , aroud 4 or 5 to kill the jantas/mokks itself. I can get 30k mission on a job improved city with a atst and can do a little more than 1 mill with fencer and no armour on a buff set , 33-38 missions if youre speed caped i bet you guys can out do my number of mission in a breeze ( seen a rifleman using SS2 every sec against a lair and finishing the mission in less than 30 secs , now that rocks!!!!)

16% min dmg/33% max dmg power-ups are what you want. And some accuracy ones for PvP if you do much of that.

37k is Enraged Rancors.....is 60k missions Ancient Bull Rancor lairs? If so I need not worry since it takes me 20 seconds to take one of them out.

As far as i know the 60k is only for smugglers who slice the mission term.

Regarding the person who mentioned they need entertainer buffs for mind enhancement aswell as using brandy I offer the following solution.
Ashira!!
It's a food and the stuff I use is 33% filling and about 300 - 400 to focus. They also last about 40mins - Much better the canape that last's about 10mins. When I am using 3 lots of Ashira and 2 lots of Brandy my specials cost pretty much nothing providing I have doc buffs and I can spam strafeshot2 as much as possible.
Hope this helps.

I'm only 2 months old in the game... I do however know that approximatly 3 weeks ago I was invited on a Rancor hunt from Dathomir Mining outpost... there were a TON of people in the group, and the missions we were told to get, and (did get) were the 60k Rancor Missions.
Rather someone did a slice thing on the terminal or something, I do not know... I just know they appeared.
