IMO i think the way different professions make money is BS. CH's can take missions for 25k on any of the offworld planets, but if im buffed im more powerful than his pet and him combined, subsequently soe gives us 9.4k missions.

im master ch and master swordsman.....i head out to dath and group up with some ppl, just so i can grab some enraged rancor missions(37k a piece) then disband the group and go make some cash....of course being master ch i dont go in alone, i send my kimo after one of the spawns and i take the other.


its a good 64k in about 20 mins


head back to outpost and grab some more....there is also the chance of some loot which can add another couple of k if u sell it

I do 6k npc missions on corriella, usually Lord Nyax followers as close to my terminal as possible. I get on my swoop and get off about 50m from them, kill them destroy the base then hop back on the swoop and head to the other mission. Takes about 5-10 minutes to do 2 missions including travelling time and of course looting time, though I am doing these missions as a tka but that's because atm I wouldn't stand a chance with my novice swordsman skills.

Try to take missions that have uber loot that goes along with them if possible. I go to lok and take gurk missions, while im travelling to do these gurk misions, I keep an eye out for the nests that spawn gurk kings. At least on my server the gurk king hides sell for 300k each. Also before the xmas holo's you could do high level faction missions for a chance to find a holo. I know that a lot of times you don't find the loot, but when you do pull up a 3 million credit find, it makes up for all the days you find nothing.

What other skills do you have? If you have any scout give us a shout we can always use another hand harvesting. The more we kill the more we harvest.


We will pay you for all that you harvest.

Novice Artisan. Buys some heavy or medium pull harvesters and harvest Lokian Wheat. Sell it to doctors and people doing medical class grinds. Make a fortune. I never worry bout destroy missions anymore and just run around and kill anything that looks like fun. If you keep power in ur harvesters and keep maintenence paid, u don't need to check em about every 5 days and they are full. I sell bulk lokian wheat at 200,000c for as stack of 50k which is much cheaper than buying it all out of bazaars. Plus I put it on the bazaars when I'm in Theed too and they all sell w/in 2 hours if ur price is right (ie beat the lowest current price for lokian wheat on the bazaar). I know harvesting like this sounds boring, but I find that it is actaully quite fun and proffitable.

either pick up scout and harvest avian meat, it sells for 20-20cr/unit on most servers or pick up artisan and throw down some harvestors, nothing like making credits while sleeping.

Artisan certainly makes you more self-sufficient, but you do not need artisan to plant harvesters. If you do not have artisan, team up with someone with artisan skills and get them to help you figure out where to plant. You can even work deals to pay someone for a waypoint to a resource site. If you are in a guild, you should be able to find someone who can help you do this.


When I first started the game, I had artisan soley to be able to survey. My partner and I built a business harvesting resources, and built a guild around that business. I had to drop artisan to get to Master Swordsman, and my partner dropped artisan because of the holo grind. But we have since picked up another partner who can survey and have guild members who can as well.
