Hi,


I wanna go for smuggler which requires unarmed 4, however i'm finding that its taking quite a while to rake up the required xp. Currently i thought i'd use a macro to take out easy spawning creatures like worrts, rills etc but these are giving out 50-90 xp points and its gonna take ages.


I've read some posts about going to endor and doing over gurrecks for loads of xp, is this wise? I'm a wookiee also so cant get the ubese armor everyone says to get, is it worth getting some wookiee armor?


Any hints on how to get my xp up would be greatly welcomed!


And lastly, would a TKA/smuggler combo be a good profession mix??


Ta in advance,


Bala

You can hire a doctor to buff you ( around 10K for a full master doc buffs ) , buy a VK even if you are not certified for it ( it increase your attack speed ) and go to dantooine hunting savage quenker ( savage quenkers are extremly weak and give good xp ).

Heyas


I am a wookiee, and currently a Master Smuggler/Master Pistoleer, TK Novice. I got my unarmed 4 long before wooks ever got a sniff of armour, and it was the longest, most boring grind ever. If I could have worn armour and gone after higher end kills, I would have (as it was, I ground it out on Rori killing squalls and nightspiders). I can't give any advice, really, except: "I feel your pain".


As for TKA/Master Smuggler, I think it's a pretty good combo, but Smugglers are not very good with a pistol unless you take at least a few boxes in Pistoleer. Plus, when you start going through Smuggler, as you do your Pistol XP trees (Underworld and Dirty Fighting), the missions won't get any harder (ie you will be stuck with low level missions even as a Master Smuggler). It's a good idea to take at least some boxes in Pistoleer if for no other reason than to get some harder missions to get the XP faster. Or, go for the Triple Master - Smuggler, TKA and Pistoleer.

These are very good suggestions. I totally agree with using the vibroknucklers before certification, find some that have been sliced for speed below 2.0, asspeed not damageis what you are after. Doctors buffs are a must, its just one less thing to worry about while you are fighting. The Quenker missions on Dantooine are great for xp, just stick with them and you'll be done in no time. I'm not sure where you are in the Smuggler skills, but Feign Death is a good one to get first (0-0-1-0), it can help you out as you level. Good luck, you'll do great.

Thanks for the comments, I've got a set of speed sliced VK, where is the best place to get buffed? I've been to dantooine, and there wasn't many ppl there! How long do buffs last for?

On another note, pistoleer, i considered going for that as it'd go hand in hand with smuggler, is that a wise choice then?

Many thanks,

Best places are Theed or Coronet starport, the master doc buff last around 2h or more, if you can get a muscian buff ( focus and will power, duration 2 hours at master ) and a dancer buff ( mind buff 100% at master ) you will be set.

I can't really answer, maybe ask on the smuggler or pistoleer board.

I have a wookie TKM/MCH on bloodfin. I did it a little different from others on this post. I went to darthmoor early in my toons life, I hooked up with a MCH whos pets tanks while I wailed away on rancors at the same time working on my own CH proffesion. When I got to a decent level in CH I started going to geo's lab getting mad ch and brawler xp.


In you situration without tank pets you can still spam for good groups to hunt with and jump behind some of the hardcore tanks in Geo's lab. Also let me add buffs are important especialy support attributes like focus and willpower, so if you can find a musician to buff you too you will do very well.


Good luck my brother wookie.

If you have another combat profession to back you up.. then get your hairy butt over to a doctor for buffs.. Go to Dant and ge Savage Quenker missions.. Use your other combat profession to kill the quenkers and only use unarmed for the lair.. Takes a bit but this will get you thru the unarmed tree in brawler fairly quickly.



Thanks to Vasarian Brandy I am now the town drunk and ONLY go to the AA meetings to brag about the killing spree done during my drunken rage.

Tank means you allow the mob to focus on you... You take the brunt of the attack for the group to absorb the damage.
