I went down the trail. A very large group of jedis and i fanshot the group with a luancher pistol and got commando 4404 in 4-5 hours. Yes you can get the xp and not be in a group.

Back to school for you. In a capitalist economy, guess what happens to prices when supplies go UP?
It's a buyer's market and it always has been.

Except that the good news is actually bad news...since the Wookies now give full xp to whoever even hits them once regarless of wether they are grouped or not.
Jedi grinding on Kashyyk just became easier for more more Jedi at once. So now instead of some Jedi there, all of them will be. I suppose the good news is that if you're a BH you will probably be able to find all of your marks on the same instance of the Ryyat trail.
Right, but combat xp is 1:30 [edit - fixed]turnin rate. That means even if you cap out completely, you're getting less xp now than you did before. If the xp thing is actually a bug and gets fixed, getting combat FS is going to take a little longer, as I believe is the intent (longer grind = less jedi, right? Hey, stop laughing!).

But...these people are already Jedi who are grinding on the Wooks, and so don't care about combat xp. Am I missing something?
Well yeah, the established Jedi aren't evengrazed by conversions, but newly FS toons will be, in quite a way.
It's a big chunk of XP to lose (compared to the old system) at each turn-in. It ultimately means the FS grind is "longer," resulting in (hypothetically) "less Jedi." Of course, it's a well established fact that train of logic doesn't, in fact, work that way, but it's an indication of some sorton behalf of the developers that becoming Jedi is currently too "easy." That's why it's a good thing.
