If you're going to get into the faction game, you need to learn The Mantra.


That is, whenever you hear people asking about grinding faction, you add, at every opportunity, that the easiest way to get faction is to buy it from a Smuggler. People will try and stay "Space" or "Bugged spawns" or "splitting and milking Group missions", but be sure you announce that these suggestions are bugged/exploits/risky. The easiest way to get faction is to run cash/loot missions and the pay a Smuggler. The next easiest way to get faction is to run cash/loot missions and the pay a Smuggler. The simplest way to get faction is to run cash/loot missions and the pay a Smuggler. The SWG Method of Choicefor gettingfaction is to run cash/loot missions and the pay a Smuggler


So my advice would be to run cash missions or get loot and buy your faction from a Smuggler

agreed...



im still only a major, but i sure would like to be able to make some money by selling faction. for smugglers, there should seriously be some sort of benefit to delegating faction via the underworld tree.


i would also like to point out, that even if i am imperial, i should be able to go on leave and possibly sell my own faction to a rebel officer. i thought i was gonna be able to do that when reading the description for the skill box.

You have to declare at a factionally aligned space station before you'll get fp for kills. Buying faction is by far the easiest way. Killing stuff in space is the most fun. Whacking high level stormies (I'm rebel) is the most profitable since they can also drop very nice loot.

cnet rebel occupied shouldnt be too hard for a level 57, but no cakewalk either. if mos eisley is occupied by rebels, that also is a great place to go since there is that really cool imperial recruitment center that is always there.

The best way to get FPS is to buy 10 to 20 mil credits and purchase it from a master smuggler or buy it yourself if MSmugg. Otherwise you should do space missions for FPS. I think the yields are more plentiful and more easily/efficiently obtained.

So I have this right......


I go to the Endor system. Fly over to the imperial station there and declare. Then go over to claw station and enter kessel or deep space. For every reb I kill I will get faction points for them?


I went into deep space monday and got nothing but imperial prestige for killin rebs. But I was not overt.

Yes. This is how I went from Warrant to Col in about a week. Getting one rank a night.


Tier 5 Reb fighters, in Kessel, will get you about 50 FP per kill.


Tier 5 gunboat about 190 FP per kill.


Not sure on the Vette.. never go the chance to solo it.
