I've been putting off going TKA for the longest.. but seeing how Commando is not going to get a revamp (have any of you guys even seen the "new and improved" Heavy acid rifle??? LMAOROFL!!!) I am going the ole glory smuggler / TKM / pistoleer..
well I was wondering.. I am like almost a Novice TK artist and now wondering which TKA tree to grind out first??? Would it be balance or mediatation?
uhmmm help??

yeah build up your damage first then your grind will be faster. The other stuff is good but you dont really need it for grinding as much as you want to kill faster so more damage is the best.

I was told to go up balance 1 first, then meditate 2, then all the way up power.

I'd have to agree that you should go like this:
0-1-0-X
0-1-4-X
0-4-4-X
4-4-4-X

The Knockdown is useful, and can really speed up your kills though. Aside from that, just go all out on the Damage bars. Since people grinding any Combat prof usually have full buffs anyways, there is little reason for Power Boost that early on. Not when the Balance line will help you get more XP faster in retrospect.

Creatures don't suffer from kd/dizzy, and since that's what you'd be killing most if you were smart with grinding, then balance 1 is useless to get first. Definitely go all the way up to Power 4, then either Balance or Meditation. Again, if you were smart with grinding, you'd always buff when you do it, so powerboost would be unnecessary except for the mind portion, and that's if you don't have good brandy.

Balance 1 also gives Melee Damage Mitigation 1, which noticabely helps during the grind.

Omega said it exactly right: Power4 = solo almost everything which = fast xp. Powerboost, damage mitgation......bah, get Kinetic armor 70-80%, doc buffs, brandy, and take a canalope every 15 mins and you can spam unarmedhit2 with vk's forever. Go to Dantooine and group with people to get higher level missions. Do quenkers, over 3k each. I was making over 200k per hour with Power4. Trust me, grinding is different then playing......if you intend to just grind as fast as possible Power4 is the way to go. After that I personally went up Balance then Meditation. Grinding means fighting creatures that dont posion anddont do high damage ect.....if your trying to enjoy the game by playing through caves, dungeons, etc.....then you can go Balance 1 then up the power4. Without the speed and power you wont be killing any higher level mobs quickly hence low xp per hour which is what grinding is all about
