I'm in my last friggen little block to master rifleman.....


Been spending my time hunting Nyms on Lok.....they are pretty fun and they take a little work to get right. With a 10 min Muon Gold spice, I can take 2 mission in the same direction, kill about 6-8 Nyms at 3-5k a piece and the lairs and net about 32K in credits.So basically 32-40k in rifle exp, 32k in credits in about 10 mins, give or take the time to run out, do the mission, get killed, come back and do it again.


Just a side note, I'm also Master Medicsofighting nyms is possible, to be honest unless you areableto healyourself, or have a partnerwho can they are probably notsoloable. BTW anyone notice that somethat the Nyms areactually hitting harder now? Heck I got advance strafe shot by one for 1600 heh, butthen he stood up and fell down andI gotthe 4800 exp anyway,but I don't remember that happening a week ago....


But nyms are fun, hefty pools, butthey dont' baf and they are less boringthat snorbs or torts....btw tort worping is bs andI hate it.

Giant Baz Nitch, check the area so you know where you can run, bleed and run while hs2ing. If they BAF chuck a bleed on the 2nd one and WS away the rest, they give5k a pop.

There stupid elephants on Lok that run as fast as you do, so you can kite them. Each one is worth, on avg, 2800-3500 exp.

I can solo Nym's with conceal shot...i'm only 1-1-1-1 in the rifleman tree. It just takes a long time and carefulness, and you will be unlucky and die on occasion.. but it's been my best method of making cash since I hate crafting. I pick missions far away as there seems to generally be less lairs around. I average about 2 per hour with all the dying.. so 32k mission payment an hour, and about 32k in exp per hour grouped with a droid.

Bingo


I worked my way from Novice to Master Rifleman almost exclusively on Giant Baz Nitches. Dying every 15 minutes to mob warping was annoying, but the XP in between was great.

Yep killing 2 GBN a go is the best solo (no pet) xp I've found.


If you go to the lower base on dathomir you can find the nests about 200m away, so dying doesn't matter at all. They do run faster than youbut not much, a supp fire or warning shot then retag as they get 50m out will sort that out.


You will die to warping mobs or nightsisters popping on top of you and hitting you for 2k fan shots. But as I said before, dying is not an issue, you should be able to make 90k an hour doing these, I've made 15k in 3 minutes a few times when I've landed nice bleeds.


These are in no way an exploit (unless you call using your brain and skills an exploit), they are just good exp.
