Whats the sotry with these? people gorup together to get higher mission but dont work together? What i dont understand is that if youre in a group and get a mission doesent everyone in the gorup get cash when you finish it? or did they change it so that theres a distance where people dont get money anymore..

thanks for the info!

I know this doesent really belong on thius forum, but i thought i might ask my fellow Swordsmen for help!

people only share your mission payout if theyre within 250 m (I think that's the range)...outside of that you get every single credit

Here is the skinny, with a bigger group you can pull missions for larger amounts of cash, and take all the money for yourself. Some of the more popular missions are the Janta/Mokk Shaman missions on Dantooine for 27k (roughly) and the Enraged Rancor missions on Dathomir for 38K (I think, never did those).


The catch is when you complete the mission you need to be at least 300m away from the closest member in your group. If you are you get all the cash. It's not uncommon that someone will be close and not realize it, and get half of your reward. most people will tip you the amount right away when they realize their mistake.Also it's polite to make sure you don't invade someone elses space, keep an eye on the group list.


Couple tips:


-try to get two missions in the same direction at the same distance, this will make things go faster.

-shuttling to a small town with mission terminals, or another starport on the same planet can help eliminate crowding. Try to space yourself from others in the group.

-You don't need to kill the npc's just destroy the lair. (for us this isn't a big deal, just spam spin2, then switch to hit 2 or 3, depending if you are speedcapped or not and finish off the lair. )

-you don't all need to be on the same planet, feel free to join a solo group on coronet, and go wherever you want. or feel free to stay in the group as long as you want, even if you no longer need to be.

-be polite. Simple etiquette can go a long way. Solo groups can be tedious and boring, and a little lively banter will make the experience more enjoyable.

Hehe.. I had the same exact questions when I came back into the game. Just spreading the wealth.

this is SWG your talking about, they may make all professions weaker and lower then the mobs, but people will still find ways to solo things. I remmeber when they nerfed TK and people were like NOONE can SOLO KRAYTS NOW! and look at it now.


I mean when I first started playing it took groups to do rancor missions....


my TK and stand at a nest and just auto attack it and not die.
