Just tonight.... 900k unarmed xp in 1 hour and 45 minutes. Only one combat
profession, else I'd keep going like Chris can do.
If you're lucky, you can run into a bunch of random spawn lairs on an
advanced planet and go to town. Being Imperial however, I have it easy. I
can not rely on solo groups simply because I see too many people leave the
group or the leader going AFK. So much easier to declare at some player
owned base and call my AT-ST and group with it. When I covert, the AT-ST
does not store (issue it a command and it will). Borderline exploit
perhaps, but not as bad as the CH *tactic* in use these days. Just myself
and the AT-ST will fetch me level 75-84 missions.
I prefer to grind on Dantooine and/or Dathomir. My favs on Dantooine are
huurton stalkers (4900-5100 xp a kill) and quenker ravagers. Each will spit
out 5 or 6 per wave from a lair. On Dathomir I try to concentrate on
kamurith, snappers and nocuous both. They give more xp than baz nitches.
Now, my trick.
1. Get two missions on a creature lair. Go to first lair. Kill all the
mobs and tap the lair once. Pick off the mobs as they spawn until no more
spawn.
2. Ignore that lair and go to the second mission lair. Kill all the mobs,
tap the lair once and pop off the mobs as they spawn until no more appear.
3. Ignore that lair and go back to the FIRST lair. Lair should be at 100%
and the mobs are back. It's like you never even attacked it.
4. Destroy the first lair. Notice the increase in damage output on the lair
after the second wave of spawns. Great for leveling a new combat profession
with no risk.
5. Go to the second mission lair and finish it off.
To summarize, you get two huurton stalker missions that are at level 84.
That'll be 5 stalkers per wave. Using the above trick, you'll get 5 waves
of stalkers from a single lair for a total number of 25 stalkers. We'll
assume 4 babies spawn out of all of these and that leaves us with 21
stalkers. At ~5k each and ~5k for the lair, that's around 110k xp a lair.
Two missions and that's around 220k xp.
Four trips to and from the mission terminals plus killing random mobs will
max you out.
That's what I do...easy xp and getting paid too. You can get more xp
killing random spawns on Dathomir if you pick your targets right. Kamuriths
will give you more xp faster than killing nothing but rancor.
