The cloning facility in Tyrena is far away from the terminals. If my mark was in one of these towns, I would sometimes wait a bit for a shuttle. If I knew there would be a long wait for the shuttle, I would continue cycling through missions in hopes for something better, with the exception of Coronet and Tyrena. I kept track of the shuttle times so if the mark was in another town and the shuttle was here, I would shuttle. I was not super picky about my missions, so I was generally willing to accept missions with marks in other towns, or within 1 km of me. The quickest missions are those where your mark is in the same town, which some people may choose to only attempt those missions.

After you arrange your windows correctly and put the informant in an easy to converse location on your screen, it is fairly easy to abort/accept missions until you get a mark in a location you like. You can open up the BH Terminal and walk a few steps to the informant while keeping the terminal open. Investigation 3 missions: Kaadara, Dearic, Mos EisleyĪs has been stated many times, the best locations for Novice BHs to get BH XP are to go to Coronet or Tyrena on Corellia. Investigation 2 missions: Kaadara, Dearic, Narmle Investigation 0 missions: Coronet, Tyrena I would say I complete 85-90% of the missions I make an attempt to complete.Ĭities I use for BH missions where the terminal and informants are in the same town: 90% of the time spent is waiting for shuttles, waiting for droid results, or running to your mark. Once in a while I’ll get lucky and do missions in 20 minutes, but there are the buggy/aborted missions that will make up for this.

There are going to be missions you will abort, either due to bugs (white marks, missing marks, location of marks, etc.), and there will be times when things just don’t go right. Using these numbers, your grand total is between 114 and 221 hours of game play to complete the Investigation branch. Since you still have the novice mission in your Datapad, finish it and enjoy your last novice mission and the last of the easy XP.ġ0,000 novice BH xp / 77-79xp = 127-130 missions * 10-15 min/mission = 21-33 hours.Ħ,000 Inv2 xp / 107-109xp = 56 missions * 30-60 min/mission = 28-56 hours.ġ8,000 Inv3 xp / 137-139xp = 130-132 * 30-60 min/mission = 65-132 hours. You can get one more easy novice mission after you hit the cap, by accepting a novice mission when you are at 10k and then training Inv1 and Inv2.

Even though Investigation 1 only requires 1,000, it’s highly recommended you reach the 10k cap first before training. I believe LLC 2 is sufficient for providing max XP missions. Unless you are quite skilled in a particular weapon, such as pistol, your best bet is to equip LLC. Your max XP may be dependant on your skill in the weapon you have equipped. Personally, it is generally not practical to me to refresh for two minutes to get that last point or two of XP so I accept missions within 2 points of the max. I believe the max XP for novice missions is 79, the max for Inv 1-3 is 109, and the max for Inv 4 is 139. I welcome any additional ideas to make more effective use of time.įor those of you new to the branch and are wondering how much time and many missions it takes, here is an estimate. Most of this guide is devoted to the ‘hard’ Bounty Hunter missions, though there are also some tips for novices. There may be some combinations that work well that I am unaware of. I will disclose what cities I used for terminal/informant combinations. That information can also be obtained from other threads, though it would be nice for someone to put together one comprehensive list that covers all levels. I do not have a compiled list of waypoints to all the informants and terminals. How many times have you arrived at a shuttle/spaceport only to see or hear your ride take off without you? Every second saved can sometimes mean a 10-minute savings. J Here I will detail some of the things I have tried to progress through this branch as quickly as possible. This guide is geared towards those who wish to make the most of their time, and may not be best for those who wish to role play their character and/or have fun at the same time. This guide is intended for the purpose of finding the optimal method to get Bounty Hunter experience in order to complete the Investigation branch with as little game time as possible.
