My trapping XP is going really slow...so I need a good way to get trapping 3 and 4. I'm seeing people post about some balcony, where is this and how do I use it?

It's called Durbin, which is bothon Talus, and 10 miles west of Fargo, ND. (that just cracks me up. Every time I drive by I say "Let's go see the sludge panthers" and my girlfriend gives me the "What do I see in him" look)

Ok..but, how do I do the balcony thing?

Get on the Balcony and trap to your little hearts content.

I have to say; as a medic I hate spies. Yes...yes I do. I RESPECT you...but I hate you.....I don't think you need nerfed, I don't think you're over powered...but I do think that you all should go to hell. ~ MusicMangina

If you are a Scout and haven't done the POIs of the planets yet, shame on you. If you did them and didn't stop and explore, double shame on you.

That was a hint.

Yes, it is easy to find. It's not lost, but it is out of the way.

I haven't been to this POI in quite a while, but last time I was there, they had removed that balcony. People would stand on it and shoot/trap it with no risk of being killed by the panthers. Dunno if they put the balcony back, I'd doubt it though.

LOL - that balcony has been gone for a long time now. Was a great spot for a noob marksman too (about 2 years ago). Had more people on it than MO on Dantooine these days

Still there on my server. Used it less than a week ago to show a noob the ins and outs of trapping and shooting.

From a roleplaying perspective, it is an abandon town that has been taken over by some of the larger preadators on Talus.

From a power gaming perspective, it an incredible place to increase your trapping, marksman and hunting skills.

From my perspective, it was a cool place to explore and work on my scouting skills when I was a wee Scout (I never used the balcony though ).
