15 minutes per 800 exp 10k to lvl3, and 20k to level 4 = 562 minutes. or just under 10 hours hmmm now if only there was a way to macro the camp it self. I told how I got the other exp in another post, someone started about xp grinding. Check it out trap exp is really easy now.

I haven't tried the having a couple Artisan Friends come sample while in my camp yet...hmmm will have to try that. However I have found that by sitting in my camp and practicing crafting camps I an pulling in roughly 80XP per campsite crafted...and every 15 minutes breaking and resetting camp for the 800XP that gives...so I'm gaining the XP, but DANG it's a slow and BoRiNg process!

get ur self 7k hide and 4.5k bone and grind on camps when camping ,non stop grinding is about 3-4k xp in15min

Yep, you can grind making camps and traps (which give survival xp). If you don't want to sample, place your camp right next to the water line and fish. I was able to do this on Coreelia just outside coronet. Place right ON the water line, and step to the edge of your camp. Equip pole, and type /fish. Every time you catcha fish, you get survival xp Fillet the fish (radial menu) and sell to a bio engineer (they need it to make those great pet stim D's)

Nice good Info I'm almost there but do I break my trend and actually master something. Hmmmm

Its not really an option when u start but i decided that i wanted to be a BH after i had been a master Creature handler and commando with flame 4 for a few months. I was kinda rich from running missions on dath so i would ask around in town for someone to set me on fire, let my health bar go black and then use search to find a high level doctor. I would offer 5-10 k to follow me out side to a camp and heal me. they can do it in three minutes. Re make the camp every 1/4 of my life bar and i just made 2600 xp. Run back into town rinse and repeat, Kinda cheesy but grinding the honest way is really boring

I never have understood the survival complaints. The only thing I can think is that people do everything based out of a town - they hate the idea of running more than 2k at a time. heh. Get out of town for a couple of days, get in some decent skirmishes - SCOUT for a change and see what's outside your comfort zone. You'll appreciate the ability to camp - and actually gain survival exp. The worst possible thing you can do is to never, ever camp until you suddenly 'need' survival. Do it gradually and you'd be surprised how little grinding is required.

Note that fishing also gives survival experience.

So make up a series of camps, grab a fishing pole and a copy of <a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=scout&message.id=11958">Volsted's Power Fishing Guide</a>, and find a nice shallow spot along the shore or river to set up your camp with lots of fish and not much vegetation (its possible to find spots where your camp is rather soggy, and you can fish from your campfire). Set a timer for 20 minutes when you set up your camp and merrily fish. When the timer goes off finish your cast, disband the camp, set up the next, and go back to fishing.

And as the poor wookie who was losing all that bait that Volsted mentioned at the beginning of his Power Fishing Guide, a big hearty thanks for teaching me the tips and tricks to making this all work.

I heal in my camp with a full suit of Chitin armor on. I seem to earn more Survival XP because of it. I can't guarantee that it will work for others...I usually sit in my camp for about 6-8 minutes and receive a decent amount.
