Where do you find 'em? Is there a schematic drop or just pay a load of money for one?

I have to agree, come prepared when going to this dungeon......its not a typical dungeon. Everything has high ham and light-medium armor with nice resists. However, you can get around this dungeon solo, you just have to use the AoE attacks to your advantage while having maybe a couple combat professions. What I suggest doing is running through the first two doors then run to the back room with genosians. By that time you'll have a couple Kwi's, Klinks, spiders, droids and genosians all following you. As long as you have /peace on, eventually one of those mobs will do an AoE attack that will get the agro off you and they will all fight each other. That's how people walk in there and survive....use the mobs attacks against them. I've seen it done everytime I go to the dungeon.

Get buffed, bring a doc, and with a group of 4 masters/semi-masters you can do the whole thing if you keep your witts about you easily. The schem, and the pistol I have only ever looted off the geno's at the very begining of the cave, the constantly spawn, so definitly make sure to be buffed and bring at least a doc and a master of a melee profession along if your not one if you plan on making a trip soley of looting things.


On that note, expect to loot a few pistols at most during a 2 hour trip, most of what you will loot will be worthy of deletion as soon as you get it, sometimes you get lucky. I suggest highly dont go in expecting a fabulous looted pistol, cubes, or cores, and most certainly dont expect to loot a schem, they are rarer then a line free ladies room at a baseball game.


Again, if your there to do the cave itself, just take your time, and keep up the heals, dont stay in any one spot to long, but dont burst run through the whole god damn thing. Its also really helpful to go along with someone whose already been there, as its a big place, and while its not amazingly easy to get lost like for example in the warren if its your first time, its much more deadly to get lost in the geno cave, especially in a few of the more quickly spawning rooms. When a group and I went in, we had 8 people, more then enough to take the place, we were all masters in at least one combat profession I was a master in 2, as well as a few others.We made it to the alkaly(sp?) lost our loot rights to a single t21 weilding rifleman who had been camping the place with his buds(who were afk at the time of the spawn, this I belevie is a bug that effects all creatures) we had a rifleman but he was going tkm on the alkalay without using to many specials so a few people could get exp. Point is, after waiting about an hour for it to respawn, losing the loot to the same rifleman and his pals, (surprise surprise they all 4 were rifleman using t21's) we left, however we do so in an odd, train like string, it turned into a scene from a bad haunted house horror movie, and only 3 of the 8 made it out alive because of wrong turns, and the entire place aggroing us and chasing us the hell around. I myself took a wrong turn into a kwi, 2 driodikas, and 3 seperate guard groups, and finally met my end in a dead end npc cave area, which I read on the map as the way out, it was infact the way out, just a level above me, and I had missed the turn. HAha, sorry to ramble.

lol, I think you miss understandthe point everyone is trying to make. Its not hard to solo 1 thing in the cave, its hardto solo 10 things at once. Iwould really like to see you just walk up to the 6 Kwi's that areguarding the first door (this is the average spawn rate in the evening on my server). No one, and I mean no one will solo those using MTK unless they were using defense stacking (which is not possible anymore). I know because I'm Master pistoleer and Master Teras. I take 2 brandy's, 2 canalopes, a s. steak whenever my stomach allows (this give me reduction in damage), and an air cake for 30% increase to dodge. I can only solo one at a time or I get overwhelmed because everytime I get done killing one, the dam thing respawns.


So in your scenarioafter your siting there killingthe 6 Kwi'sONE at a time, 4 others spawn on top of you because the spawn rate is so fast in there. Again tell me how you plan to "easily walk" in this dungeon and solo everything without using other tatics?

lol, yourjust another defense stacker that was once unhittable right. First off if you try stepping past the 10-20 spawns of genosians on the first floor (after the spawn rate increased of course) and you will go down in a couple hits in Ubese armor. Use Ubese armor in the geno cave, I have never heard utter nonesense in my life. Sure I can kill 20 genosians at a time but in Composite armor. Ubese Kinteic armor is like paper when they fire Stun, Acid, Energy, ect... weapons at you. I've walked in their with Ubese fully buffed with everythingyou takefood wise, when they hit you for almost 1k damage a shot you wont last but 10 seconds. Now if you just use that armor on the animals, thats different. But saying you can walk all over the mutliple spawns of Genosians and Mercs that fire their weapons at you, I'm sorry its impossible without composite armor.


I guess this is where you tell me you use conceal shot on them all day.....wow there is some tatics.

Also be careful because these Geonosian fellas utilize the AOE exploit with Fanshot, Strafeshot (and others). You'll be fine and next thing you know, you're incapped and your combat log says "A Crazed Geonosian uses Fanshot on you for 2235 pts of damage" (about 15 times in a row).
