I truly believe so... We gain experience faster then any other class and still will be recieving the 30 to 1 trade. In essence someone would train 3 boxes into SL so they are able to max out at the 900k SL Experience cap and continiously dump that into their "Jedi" selected experience trees... Questions? Comments? Concerns?

i dont understand what you mean by dumping SL experience into a charcter who requires jedi experience.

The "Experience Converter" that will be a part of the Village of Aurillia. You will basically transfer your SL experience thru this NPC into "Jedi" experience once you unlock Force Sensitive and are allowed the luxury of going thru the phases of the Village.
If you would like to find more information on it, there are posts in the "In Development" forum regarding it. I had tested this out on Bria TC2 and it worked wonders. Someone who is a SL from Eclipse and possibly tested this out care to comment as well?

I was just talking about this last night to my guildmates. Get a big non-solo group on dath, go kill for a few hours, and you have a stupid amount of exp gained through sl. From what I've seen profession-wise, with the ease that we can get VERY large amounts of sl exp, it's very plausable that you will start to see more and more sl's to take advantage of the huge exp gain we get at the moment. Now, I havn't tried them all yet, but from the professions that I have tried, nothing even comes close to the amount of exp sl's can get in a certain amount of time over any of the other profession that i have tried.
So yea, while it does seem like a nice shortcut to the way everything is set up now, I can see a stupid amount of sl's coming up here on the horizon and REALLY think it should be put into proportion. FOTM indeed.

You're not the only one who noticed this. I've been keeping it quiet, though...

I don't think so...900,000 is a small cap for a 30 to 1 ratio. Besides, why lead groups when you can go the geo merc room or 0,0 on Endor and "bug" the spawns? If you haven't seen this, it is quite a hilarious site.......and will make you 500,000 weapons exp and 50,000 combat exp in 30minutes.......

True, and if you're an SL and are grouped with a few people at the same time, you'll gain 900K of SL in addition to your weapon and combat XP. More is good, SL's becoming FOTM bad.
/prayes SL's don't get an stealth XP nerf.

This is very interesting indeed. I will say though that it is not as easy to get a group of people together willing to go hunt together like it used to be. You would have to organize a bunch of people together to spend a lot of time and take turns being leader so that all benefit.
I hope they don't nerf the XP though. When they moved our revamp back I went ahead and dropped down to 3043 squad leader so I could have more skill points for my PvP template. I always enjoyed being Master SL, but eventually I realized that I was really weakening myself by having boxes that didn't really add much. I plan to return to master SL before the revamp though, and I'd hate for it to be way more difficult to achieve. Like I said above, it's hard to get a group together to hunt these days.

I went on TC2 Eclipse, and I'm pretty sure the exchange for Squad Leader XP is 90 to 1.

I second that. I tested on TC2 Chilastra and yes, the conversion XP was 90, not30for Squad Leader experience.
