Alright,
I have at the moment 0/0/0/2 (had a little combat xp saved up) and was wandering the route I should take from here to Master. I know this gets posted a lot, but I still cannot decide. I read something about getting Conceal Shot, then going to the Droid Engineer's Cave on Lok, using an Aim/Conceal Shot Macro. But I read another post conflicting that post saying Conceal Shot is SUPER slow till master. Now I am no hologrinder nor do I want to be, but its always better to get something done sooner to enjoy it more. And was wandering whats the fastests way in terms of "Xp per Hour". Is the best way Flushing Shot 2, then Sniping 4, or Conceal Shot?
Also should I level with a Laser or T21? My currentLaser is 4.4 speed, with a 450 or so Max, without PUP, and where should I hunt?
Thanks,

The best way is grouping or being a CH and using Flushing Shot 2(Counter Sniping 3, on the Gunner Branch).
Flushing 2 is the fastest way to get to master but you need to:
A) Group with a Tank.
B) Have a pet.

Doesn't even have to be a big pet. I had a level 12 BE'ed cat I used (that's at novice CH). If you got a non-CH pet, and buffed it, you could probably do that too.

What I did was group alot on Dathomir ( really easy to find Hunting Groups there ) until I had enough XP to get Countersnipe 3 and Flushingshot2. I had a pet so I then went to Dantooine and leveled mainly off Picket Plainswalker Lairs using the Pet and Flushingshot2, as well as a plethora of Pet Stims 
. That was way back when Conceal Shot was broken and everything aggroed you no matter what you did. Now that it is fixed I would go about it this way, this is just what I'd try as I haven't tested how effective it would be.

Pick some Mobs that don't DB and have a moderate amount of HAM, 5k or so ( Quenkars are good and have low resists but I cant remember if they DB. If you can get your hands on one get a High damage Laser Rifle or possibly a T21, I think you will find the extra damage output would outweigh the Speed for effectiveness. If you can afford it get some Vasarian Brandy as well. Get to CounterSniping 3 from the MOB's you choose as quickly as possible and once you have it head back to Dathomir and group up on Rancor Hunting missions.. Stand back from the Melee action and use FlushingShot2 on them for some nice XP gains. If you can get your hands on a DXR6-b at this stage they work wonders on Rancors

Gets you in a bit of Group combat as well, I find group combat a whole lot more satisfying that Solo Grinding.. Bores the living daylights out of me that does.. heh!

You people and your concealshot.........
/Shakes head
"When I mastered rifleman concealshot did absolutely nothing and MOB's warped on us for 2.5 times more damage."
If you going to Solo it conceal is the way to go, If your Going into group action or using a pet Flushing 2 is the Shot you want to use.
Oh and hunt Quenkers if you solo, thats easy XP.
