I am about 90k xp away from attaining Novice Rifleman. I am looking for suggestions on where and what to hunt, and what weapons to use.


I have a Laser Rifle (sliced for speed), Jawa Ion Rifle and Spraystick.

I also have a crate of 20 of Muon Gold.


Can anyone suggest the best creatures to hunt and where they are located, and what weapon to use? I seem to take ages to kill certain creatures. What specials should I use.


Marksman 4003

Scout 2001

Medic 1000

Brawler 0001


Thanks - All help appreciated

I just got novice and I personally killed anything I could find on one of the starting planets using muon and Headshot 2 with a 417 max laser rifle and did around 2k damage. Worked for me.

Quenkers on Dantooine are the best I found. Just go prone, use headshot2 twice on whatever spawns, then see which has the least mind, then target the weaker.

Yeah, goto Dantooine, Hunt for Quenkers and Savage Quenkers. about 4-5k ham. Get prone, mask scent (big help) and just fire away. I reccomend going the Counter sniping row until you get Flushing shot 2 (X-X-3-X). I do about 3-4k damage average (540 max damage Laser Rifle). It's random pool, but still. Also make sure you get grouped with someone, it can even be your pet (extra Exp)

Uhhh those of you telling him to kill s. quenkers better tell him to buff up. Cuz he is NOT EVEN NOVICE RIFLE YET....


He wants to get there...... I like the quenker idea .. But you Better Get some Doc buffs on you before u go there. OR ull get lit up and be incapped more than ur making exp.


If you can't get buffs...... Start kiling banthas at a static spawn somwhere on tatooine.... usually near the krayt graveyards in the desert area u can find some good ones. They will give u 1.5 exp to 2 each kill (bulls especially)


Make sure u get a driod and group it to gain max exp bonus. (if you dont have ch)


The quenkers are a better exp bet..... but at Rifles IV i wouldn't do it unless u can get buffed and have a good kenetic resist armor.

Uhhh i dont understnad this statement??? NOt to seem to call u out as a lyer....but uhh there is a big hole in your statement.


U said u had your flamethrower??? Which means u had ot have been at the very least a novice commando. At novice commando you are already a Master Marksman.......and the only thing u need to grind to get to novice rifleman, is..... UHHH NOTHING!!!


So how is it u were grinding up the rifle side of the Marksman ladder witha flamethrower to get to novice rifleman? Big hole in that threory Mate.


IF you were a novice commando....u did not have to grind the rifle ladder......u just chose it, simple as that. There is no grind needed. Thus u weren't grinding quenkers before u got to novice rifleman.....


Again.....im basing this on the fact u said, u had a flamethrower already.... And u can't have a cert for Flamers unless u aldreay have Master marksman and novice Commando. Meaning u grinded quenkers after u got Novice Rifleman.

Or needing just 125k of rifle exp after getting Master Marksman........to get to Novice Rifleman. Mod stacking was still existant then....... so this would help u a great deal over someone who has nothing but a rifle....climbing the rifle ladder at 2/0/0/1 Marksman...

i described that underneath....... But still someone having nothign but rifles IV over a (at the least Novice Commando, who knows how high up you were.....my guess is almost master or master before u decided to go Rifleman....) is a big difference. Especially when the mods stacked back then.
