Sorry,I hit enter too soon...but I am currently a master rifleman with some mods and stuff...and I am currently on the jedi grind YAY!! Ok well I was thinking about dropping fencer (which I already did) so that I can rack in xp more...now I know this is in the swordsman forums, and just because a lot of you are swordsman isn't and automatic that I should do it...now I was wondering if I could actually get more xp in the less amount of time with TKM or Master Swordsman?

yes, i would say it is a quick FS grind with both professions, swordsman maybe being a little faster. it's pretty easy to cap your weapons xp and about 3/4 to all of your combat xp in a buff session. Even quicker if you are in the geno caves due to the bug. I personally like farming loot and xp on nym's people...you run into tons of gurks inbetween your mission spawns and get pretty decent loot. it's just a matter of preference...i would be interested in hearing other peoples xp/loot farming places. I hope this somewhat answered your questions...you don't really need great buffs for xp/loot farming just go for long duration. how fast is the rifleman FS grind?

swordsman. with swordsman useing spin2 on a racor nest for example, your spin will kill rancor as they are trying to walk away with low ham. With tkm they fall out of range of your spin quicker and cause u to have to chase more down. ive used both, and i can cap quite a bit faster with swords.

swords is faster.


No contest...unless you are miles away from the speed cap...in which case there may be some contest.

having done both I can attest that swords is much faster, espically once you get FS melee speed. Once you have that skill the breakdown between TKA & Swords for pure grindingis no contest swords wins.


If you do not haveFS Speed then it is difference between the two iscloser. Swords with a scytheis faster than TK, but TKis faster than swords with a power hammer.

Why not do them both?


Im currently doing my FS grind and i have both Master swordsman and TKM in my template. When i grind in geo i first max outunarmed xp and the twohanded xp. this gives me at the same time 180k combat xp. If i stopat that and then go to village to convert xp i get 120FS xp instead of60k FS xp if i had only mastered oneof the proffesions. Best grind i ever hadwas last sunday when i maxed out unarmed and twohanded twice during one buff. thats a total of atleast 240k FS xp.


But...


If u gonna choose one i would say swordsman. its thefastest way to grind xp.
