Naw.. at this point the grind is way too long for even powergamers...


when EQ was first released there were L50s within 29 days on fen ro...


Not much different on DAOC..


now they cut the leveling time by almost half in EQ a powergamer with freinds that have L65s can make 1-L65 in about 7 days played now.... ive heard it can be done in 4 real days but thats fanatical and requires more than not havign a life...


DAOC is now giving free L20-30 chars to anyone that has an L50 on any server... and its easy as heck with PBAOE groups to make 1-50 in about 8 days...


In SWG I have several master elite chars now but I play way too much...


my TKA master is now semi untrained all ive kept is Power4 and balance4 and 2 in precise...


rest ive gone CM with.. seems pretty fun.. may try the new version of commando soon.... the cool part about SWG is you can try differnt stuff if you dont like how that char is working out...instead of a complete reroll


I think it should be alot easier for most peeps to atain master ranks... now still playing 15 hours a day doing faction missions arnt getting my char anywhere except tons of faction points that since Im a rebel cant use since armour and pets stink..... it would literally take prolly 6 months now to max TKA from novice for a pretty dedicated player...

Enjoy the grind now, because when you hit master the "fun" does not begin. Actually the bredrum sets in nicely. There is NOTHING to do in this game once you hit master. PVP, Please, it's a joke. Missions? Half of them are copy cats off old missions, and are so bugged they either give wrong waypoints, or no rewards.


So enjoy having a goal now, because once you've reached it, you'll find yourself saying....ok what now?

Corsairs are a whole **edit**load harder than Nyms. And now that Nyms have been nerfed ill never finish TK. It's ridiculous. At 4k per kill it was still a EXTREMELY boring grind. Now imagine on another planet killing white cons for like 1k xp max? No thanks. I think ill just head back to Tat and see what luck I have trying Tusken raiders.

Try Huurton stalkers on Dantooine. They pack but you can find 2 at a lair pretty easily, just go into attack stance with 1 targeted and the other 1 will agro and charge while the one you had targeted will stay there. Kill the 1 that comes, then if theres just the 1 left, shoot him to pull and kill him. 4k unarmed xp each.

Fedon, attack what ever gives you a postive faction when you kill a Nym. Usually that is what takes down your faction points.

"lok missions are currently still solo-able, (take that, devs) but you will need a certain combination of skills from different classes to pull it off."

Explain how this is true?

When I attack Nyms, they all BAF now, and I stand no change solo. When you said lok missions did you mean Nym missions and if you did, how?

Well it's still soloable if you have a pet. Nyms were the best xp camps in the game after the Baznitch nerf. They didn't aggro, theywere really dumb, and they gave a crap load of exp. My Swordman/CH/Medic was getting 600k+ exp a day, just from killing whatever Nyms I saw on my way to my missions. Now that they aggro (due to my extremely negative Nym faction) and they assist, it's a lot harder than before, but not undoable. For me, I try to run around all of them so they take out their melee weapon, then when they all get close to me (or my pet), I just spam area attacks until they all die.

I see a few things wrong with this froma TK perspective:


1. Not everyone has a meatshield (pet)..i do but thats CH not TKA


2. Spamming anything just isn't gonna happen anymore


3. I dont have an area attack, and I'm not sure that the one that we do get is worth anything especially since the swordsman one does like 6k of damage each (My friend was a Master Swordsman..you're damage may vary), postures them down, and dizzies them all. <--surprised noones called for a Swordman nerf yet BTW

What attack is that in swordsman... I was just browsing the tree and all i saw was lower the posture, damage and effect multiple opponents.


Just out of curiosity
