Sharing a profile I used previously before I found a slightly better place to farm credits since I will no longer use it and I think the community needs some more profilesharing. Where is it? In a place called Jedi Encamptment in Starship on Hoth, it will sell trash items and greens at a medical droid close by, but you can start the profile from Frostwake Outpost and it will grind on the way to the area. What level do I need to be for this I used it at 60 but I imagine 55+ would work How much does it generate I get 140-180k, the packs usually give gold just shy off 2k each and you kill about 3 per minute. Depending a little on RNG, actually the big timedrains are the Jedi Masters with a lot of HP and less credits than easier mobs and if you really want to you can trim them from the profile. I usually keep vigil over the mob and sort any of the orange sets from this area since they sell for a decent amount on GTN, which if you made a safelist for items could possibly boost you above 200k/hr (but oranges are extremely dependant on RNG) How exhaustible is this farming The heroic area is very large and I covered all the spawns in the profile, there will always be packs to kill and since this is an outdoor heroic area requires no phase reset. My limit is when BW causes game to crash. How safe is this area to farm I think this profile is low likelihood - high risk. What that means is that it is a low probability that you will be detected, people don't do the heroic quests on my server atleast and the place is pretty remote. On the offchance that a party do undertake the quest in the area it will quickly become pretty apparent what you are doing. The trek to the endurance datacron on Hoth takes you past through this zone but this hasn't posed a big problem for me, they keep to the left while most packs are out of their way and they usually scurry past quickly anyway. Since I personally always do something else while botting I usually keep and eye on one monitor and write something like "GL with datacron" to avert suspicion". All in all my first profile, hope someone has some use of it, it gave me some sweet looking outfits and stuff from GTN. Ebb
I think his reasoning was that there are not very many actual farmable locations in SWToR that turn a real good profit. The location you listed is a pretty good one (I've got a profile created for it, and it's usually pretty dead there on my server). Now, with posting it, there will be 2-4 more people there trying to farm it, especially if those people don't care enough to check if anyone else is already there. Nothing wrong with posting profiles, it's just going to make for some pretty congested botting areas in the few locations on each side that turn a good profit(not to mention, it's now public, so if anyone wanted to check for bots, they can).
This spot was taken by couple of bots on most servers last time I checked but that was in late 2.0. Its one faction only profile though. Also a chest and some nodes there as I recall...
Hey guys, thanks for all the criticism. The absolute main reason I posted this was that when I first came to BW only grind bot worked and there were no grind profiles whatsoever and I felt a little discouraged, used existing leveling bots, which yielded very little and had to trial and error my way through it. I am still doing it and have found better places yet. Regardless I hope is serves as some kind of inspiration as to how to grind for some cash - while it may sound cognitively dissonant since I bot myself, I don't personally approve the 24/7 credit farm on subaccounts and selling it to goldsellers (Even though BioWare more or less enables them). I'm doing it to have a little extra cash in my pocket to buy expensive but rad looking cartel weapons and armor (kind of the enabling by bioware) because I don't have the time to farm it. When I wrap my head around writing good question guides I will post such instead. Peace out ebb
Thanks for this share, will give rep. Not very many botters on my server, to it works well. Able to get 400K/hour with a combat bot i made for this purpose.
