i use all the above mentioned but also write this loop macro for soloing kimos and krayts


/warcy(1 or 2)


/pause 2;


/intimidate(1 or 2)


/pause 2;


/ui action toolbarSlotXX(where you put macro)


use that when soloing it leaves enough time to heal and spam attacks works well for the soloer of the uber...cheers

My trick was adding Master Rifleman,TKA 4-0-0-4, Medic 1-0-0-0 along with Master Swordman of course. I just get a buff from a doc and just go and destroy everything.

WOOT, Thanks for help everyone.


Just myselfand a fencer made it to the Ackley last night and almost killed it (30%) left.


The only reason we failed was that his buffs ran out and it was too much drain on my mind healing us both.


Compared to my first post in this thread, instead of being whacked by one kwi, i was able to take on 3 at once. Last night was some of the most fun I ever had with this game.


Thanks again.

I am a master Swordsman/novice medic/hologrinding blah blah

I am also a tranodoshian

With a decent suit of composite (74% special kinetic resist or higher), a spot of brandy, some muon for emergencies,and my trusty hammer I can solo anything in the cave, (the acklay's entorage all attacked me at once, so I dont count that) I can also solo Giant Dune Kimogilas and put the hurt to nightsister elders (with a bit of help from my buddy)


I cant wait to unlock so I can flesh out my template and get my attributes where I had them

Both ahrisa (focus) and canape (focus, willpower) are foods that buff the mind stats. Ahrisa usually last around 40-45 minutes, Canape 9-12 minutes. Be sure to check the filling, canape can be made at 33% filling which allows youto buff around +2100.

I am Master Swordsman and 1-0-0-0 Medic (eventually going Master Doc once I can drop Weaponsmith when I get my 2nd account to master WS). Right now I can pwn a group of kwis/klikniks (which I haven't tried since they fixed armor holes) only having to worry about the intimidate, so with Doc it should be a cinch. I also sport my 80% kinetic composite fully encumberance sliced from Lone-Wolf. Once I get Doc I will start trying NS's, Krayts, etc. I can kill the Acklay with klikniks around me so I'm excited about getting Master Doc to really challenge myself with the highest level stuff in the game.


P.S. I am a human and have my stats migrated to 400/400/400 400/400/400 1000/1000/1000, sometimes I get musician buffs but not always, I take 2 brandies, and 1 canape every 10 mins.

I'm Master Swordsman, TKA 4/0/0/3 and Doc 0/4/4/0. I wear 80% comp. I doubleshot brandy. One Canape. A muon in reserve for emergencies. Powerboostfor an additional 500 HAM makes a big difference in battle.For big prey like NSElders or large groups of NS, I use 16%dam/33% mind Power ups and 42% reduction Synthsteak.


There pretty much isn't anything in the game I can't tank, maybe super battle droids... but everything else is prey to my Power Hammer.

if you are always getting buffs you might migrate more of your stats to mind/focus/will. After all these are your biggest weaknesses with buffs.Plus if you are healing a lot this would help both on and off the battlefield. I find with a good set of buffs even with low health and action my pools regenerate very quickly, but the mind does get to hurting because you either get too full on brandy or your having a spice downer. Throw some heals and specials into the mix and your mind is your weakness. I can solo most anything in PvE at my current level 2/3/4/3 even when my buffs only get me in the 2500 HAM range, with brandy and canape my mind lingers around 2000 and I'll use muon for emergencies. So I would recommend stat migration as an option.

Thanks again, keep the tips coming, the stat migration thing never dawned on my. Though as a Trando I don't think I will be able to migrate very high in the secondaries.

I am TKM and Master Swordsman. My armor is 36 % stun composite with stats in the mid to high 70's (works well for me) I use double shots of brandy , powerboost and 1 canapa (722 , 38 filling , 11 minute duration )


Iuse a Scythe Blade that is not the bad 2.6 spd , 228 - 417 damage (non power-up)


Powerhammer is a little slow for my tastes 5.3 spd doing 168 - 573 (non powered up) - but Im also getting a acklay hammer soon so I hope this gets better.


I tend to solo just about everything, Krayts (can be a little hairy), Kimos , Jantas , Mokk's . Gurracks - btw endor is a great place to grind out xp - with decent armor and mind candy you can do close to 500k - 1 million per day with out breaking a sweat.
