Fastest Way to Master Entertainer : Star Wars Galaxies Nerfed Info

Firstly, the best way to master Entertainer is to play music. Dancing is much slower. The following method ensures the fastest XP gain. Some of the changeovers are unintuitive (i.e. you may be instructed to play a lower level song or instrument at certain times), but according to the numbers the following procedure will work fastest.

The first step is to get some travel & spending money together and go to Mustafar. Get the Calypso song from the guy in the cantina there. Also, find a place in the galaxy that sells the Traz, Mandoviol, Bandfill, Chidinkalu Horn and Ommni Box. Buy all of these.

Then go to a cantina and start playing Calypso on any instrument (the song - not the instrument - is where the good XP comes from at this stage). When playing, always remember to do a minimum of two flourishes per ten seconds in order to get the best XP gain over time. Keep playing until you reach Entertainer Essentials 2. This should only take about 3 hours.

At Entertainer Essentials 2 switch to the Traz and play any song in order to get the best XP until the next stage. This should take about 80 minutes.

At Entertainer Essentials 3 change music to the newly-acquired Ceremonial song. Play this until you reach Entertainer Essentials 5. This should take about 3 hours.

At Entertainer Essentials 5 switch to the Mandoviol. Keep playing Ceremonial until Entertainer Ex 1. This should take about 4 hours.

At Entertainer Expertise 1 change the song to Ballad. The next stage will take about 2 hours.

At Entertainer Expertise 2 switch to the Bandfill. Keep playing Ballad on the Bandfill until Entertainer Expertise 5. This will take about 7 and a half hours.

At Entertainer Expertise 5 switch to the Chidinkalu Horn. Play Ballad until you get Entertainer Master 1. This should take about 5 and a half hours.

At Entertainer Mastery 1 change music to Waltz. This stage takes 2 hours 40 minutes.

At Entertainer Mastery 2 switch to the Ommni Box. Keep playing Waltz. This stage takes 3 hours.

At Entertainer Mastery 3 change music to Jazz. Play for 6 hours and 20 minutes to get to Entertainer Master 5.

At Entertainer Mastery 5 change music to Virtuoso. After about 3 hours you should be done.

The whole process should take 40 hours, so it should be possible to master in two days.

Note that very few entertainers enjoy being in a cantina with an AFK (Away From Keyboard) 'bot'. If you must grind while AFK, please do it away from other players. Better still, play at the keyboard and socialize. That is where the best game experience comes from. Levelling for the sake of a Master title is an empty exercise.

Can premium members say yay or nay to this being moved to a confirmed section.

Also, note that if you grab an Entertainer Buff while doing this, it can reduce the times considerably, making it under 30 hours of time till mastery.

Yeah that looks about right. I recently leveled an entertainer to master and this was the path i used. Only took a few days.

I think most uses this path. Its a good guide.
