Hey Folks,

I'm currently Master Unarmed, working my way up the ladder to TK novice. As a casual player at best, it really seems to be taking me forever to climb that ladder where I can finally use my super-2.3-knucklers and do a reasonable amount of damage.

I've pretty much lived on Corellia thoughout my whole SWG life, taking the occasional expedition off-planet. Hunting around on Corellia is starting to get really, really, really booring. Truth be told, if I have to face off against another Durni or Corellian Butterfly, I think I might go nuts.

Reading these boards day by day, I realize that I'm probably going about this the wrong way. There are a lot of TK novices out there, which suggests that perhaps I'm wasting my time on Corellia, there might be a bigger XP bank of nasties on some other planet that might be more productive for me. But where? Other posts have demonstrated an "I'm getting there but I'm not sharing" attitude...

Unarmed Master is a pain in the butt, because with TK you're neither here, nor there yet. I just want to break into the TK novice profession, and I'm only a measily 100K away. Are there any other players post-"mother-of-all-nerfs" who have been in the same position as me? What measures are you taking to maximize your XP accumulation?

And for the seasoned TK novices out there...how did you guys do it? How much time do you normally devote to hunting per day, and where???

Please help a brother out...

go with mound mite on tatooine!!! buy a really cheap driod or something and group with it, these things rock for that unarmed 4-TKA novice leap, also, kill any and all 'a womp rat' only the normal ones though, dont go for lessers or junk


the womp rats are best giving 466 xp each, but they are social and its hard to take on more than two, also, when you get womp rat lair missions there is usually one with two lessers, which suck for xp

Thanks, man. I'm going to Tatooine tonight...*LOL*

400 XP per kill sounds sweeter than a crazed durni, and wouldn't you know it, I have a probot, albeit somewhat weak.

I still reccomend going to Fort Tusken. I can typically make about 25-30K XP in about an hour there. It's not hard to find a group going there or on that is there. Alot of people will be more than happy to invite you. Tuskens aren't that hard either unless you are fighting a warlord or something similar. Even then i have taken one out in about 5 seconds while he was prone with his rifle out (gotta love the damage modifier). Try it out, you won't be disapointed.

Dude, I was in your boat! It took me about a week, playing constantly, to get my TK Novice XP so I could use my knucks.


I thought the journey was a never ending battle. I am on Tatooine, yet anything that would give you big xp would always kill me. Until I found Cu Pas..


Cu pa's rock. They're all over too! Find a lair, then just sit there, kill one, heal, kill one, heal, kill one.. blah blah blah.. they're like 450 a piece xp and I could always kill them without getting incp. They should regen for you, mine always seem to.


Try it out.. wouldnt hurt.

Also, one thing you can try is get yourself a marksman to group with and head to Arglit (sp?) between Kor Vell an Doaba on Corellia ( the patch with the small blue circles in it ). The Savage Humbabas give 2k if you can drop them (with a marksman it's posssible, but they are pack animals, so you have to be careful how you draw them out as their aggro range is 50 or so m).

Scyks on Tat are great for unarmed XP. I think they're 650 each and they are all around Entha on Corbantis. That's half the reason I live there

Scyks are indeed outstanding. Be sure to have some Scout and Medic levels to decrease your downtime (sound advice for every class, really).

I gotta say, Sycks, Cu Pas and the more often forgotten oh crud I forgot their names... err well the _____ Boars are very good for xp. 500 per boar and they go down pretty fast.

zucca boars are what you mean, and i liked mound mites cus they have no resistances and there is no down time at all, just go there, kill the 6, go to the next mission, kill 6, get two more 200m away....kill....
