Well I have been on silent holo so I picked up this profession to kind of ease the grind with a combat prof and I was surprised that it only took me 4 days to master... If the powerhammer was more accurate in PvP this would be the greatest prof ever and is already probably the best PvE prof.

Anyway, How I mastered in 4 days is... I am Master Doc so just get Buffed, get some high Kenetic Ubese and go out to the krayt graveyard area. Find lairs, the best is Razorback nests, Ronto lairs, Cannibal Dewback lairs and Dewback lairs. Bantha will work if you can't find the others but isn't as good of xp. So just tap the lair while the spawn is still present all of them will aggro you and come in attacking, switch to one and just start spamming your best area attack. The area attacks are awesome, 1 only does about 1k damage but with a good speed sliced powerhammer even without speed mods you can kill all of the ones already around plus whatever spawns with very little trouble. Razorback lairs this way amounted to about 80k xp in about 15-20 minutes.

Comments: My char is rodian which have horrible mind stats so I would often have to sit and rest but one day I got Master Music Mind buffs and the difference was amazing... So humans should have almost no down time doing this with good mind stats. For training I'd suggest getting 2-x-x-x first for Area 2 then getting tech 2 for the speed mod and after that get 4-2-0-x and then its all down hill jogging from here. The xp on banthas and dewbacks will decrease but Razorbacks will still give about 4k per and a static nest will spawn about 20-30 and its possible to kill 10-15 at a time. Powerhammers are the best weapon solely for the fact that the mind cost is low. Fast swords will do more dps and hit more often but your mind will take a significant hit.

Its really easy as pie... I could get about 200k xp per hour and its really a lot of fun. I have a great picture of me with about 30 ronto corpses laying on the ground in a circle.

After master unless you really love PvE this profession seems a little boring... Enraged Rancor lairs are fun to solo but even those really aren't much of a challenge. Nightsisters are a good challenge and Juvenile Krayts are pretty fun to solo.

Anyway hope this helps anyone trying to get to master, this is my first visit to this board so this may have already been said but i didn't see it on a sticky so here ya go.
