I've recently started on rifles and after reading through all the grinding posts i tried them with mixed success

Then yesterday there was something i wanted to watch on TV and as my PC is close i came up with a quite

good way to grind semi-afk.......it went as follows


I got myself a decent Spraystick 50-200 damage 1.9 speed , got buffsand quaffed some brandy.

I took my 2 quenker missions and of i went to the lair , I made a repeating /pointBlankArea1 macro , knelt in front

of the lair and blasted away...........I turned round and watched a bit of TV.........after3 mins or so the lair was gone and all the

corpses were laid at my feet . Rinse & Repeat...........over the day i got a heck of a lot of XP this way with little to no risk and enjoyed a couple

of decent movies.


Not the greatest way to level but nice and leisurely to fill them first few boxes

lol, thats close to what i did grinding the unarmed tree for brawler, once i got brawler 2 i went to dantooine, got a 9 stat buff, drunk some brandy. made a macro



/follow;


/unarmedhit1;


/pause .9;


/macro grind


called it grind. I just had to tab once my current target was dead. took a while to kill pikets with it but it woked well.

Yeah, I found grinding UA to be a bit boring so I used a cuple also. At novice brawler I repeated berserk every 60 seconds, then at UA4 I made one that just kept doing spin attacks. Same pricliple as you. Walk up to the lair, start attacking, watch TV. Lol, what is this game comeing to?

I see where you're coming from and did something like that. I found a huurton stalker spawn, no lair, just 4 stalkers hanging out. I stood in the middle with a spray stick and by the time the last one died, the first one respawned. So for like 2.5 solid hours i was killing about 1 huurton a minute = 180k xp per hour, the BF racked up fast so i shuttled to coronet, then rebuffed and went back to the spawn. Whammo, in2 days of "afk" i've gotten to 4/0/4/4 (came in with combat xp at cap...). (oh and 1 new chest plate and one new pair of boots). My macro consisted of /kneel; /pause 15; /ui action toolbarSlot00; just so i would not get booted. I could have put in a special attack, but had no reason. Huurtons also did little mind damage, so the brandy was not needed.

one other thing, overnight, i afk'd meatlumps which got me 50k overnight and then when i stopped getting xp for them, i went to Rori and killed garyn raiders outside the bunker which gave me 110k overnight and some interesting loot.


forBH i wrote a long winded post on afk grinding master marksman and getting to BH 0/4/4/4 in10 days or less, it was nothing more than these techniques that can take a casual gamer from novice brawler or marksman to master elite in a week or so without having to grind in the hour or two you play. And that's without buffs, with buffs you cut the time to master to a couple days...

I'm pulling this back to the top because it's actually the fastest grinding i can possibly do.


Time per quenkerlair i found as follows


Spraystick /pointBlank area13 mins

T21 or Disrupter /Conceal shot 6 mins

T21 or Disrupter /Flushing shot 5 mins (most time is spent getting droid/pet in/out)


Only thing is for first one u need good comp/ubese & buffs

for them all u need Brandy/Ahrisa(sp)


Hope this helps.......sounds silly but it works well

I have been working hard trying to level Rifleman trying all the techniques I've read or a Master has told me to do. I must say the Spraystick spamming PointBlank Area was the absolute best I have tried.


I logged back into the game to test this theroy and in one hour I managed to get over 100k xp. My hat's off to you SkelloUK. You have removed my headache with your post.

Was just looking for the best way. I seem to kill my mind with my spraysticks at 1.4/1.9 speed (i have 2, one speed and one damage sliced). I've used /pointblankarea1 to AFK my way through pistoleer and all my melee professions (with spin attacks). With 55 for the mind cost on them, I have to buff myself and down brandy/full mind buffs and some canape sometimes. I should probably get a set of ubese so I'm not encumbering myself too bad.

I first posted this about a week ago and earlier today i made Master Rifleman...........so i'd estimate the total hours to be maybe 25-30 hours........3-5 hours per day up until today where ithrashed it out in a long 10 hour stint


1 lump of Ahrisa with 2 Brandies kept my Mind bar very high all the way through and the good thing is they last roughly the same time


Normal Quenkers grouped with droid (Savage are much higher ham now)

mm dunno why but its working slow for me i always run out of mind (and im huamn with all stats relocated into mind-focus-will)


im only wearing ubese for this so i dont get a to high panalty(still need it to be sliced soon)




does the gen cave trick still works i drove by it and only saw one critter at the entrance.


if nothing works ill go back to crazed gurrecks on endor they die in 3-5 headshots(2) and are none social so other gurrecks wont mind you killing theire buddy
