Week 10: Village Phase 4: Enhanced Reflexes: Melee Defense
Now I am finished on week 10, instead of week 22, all by careful planning of what skills I need, and what order to use my free unlocks.
To get a free unlock, you must talk to Paemos, who offers any free unlocks you might have. He will unlock the branch of your choice, and allocate enough xp to master that branch. Training is provided by Noldan.
Remember: Unlock ONE free branch at a time, train it, then return for another free branch.
Once you have attained your free unlocks, it's time to do the quests relevant to the other branches you want to do as part of the six required to move on to Jedi Initiate. Personally, I would do all of the quests, as there are some cool rewards.
Quests and XP Conversion
Each NPC offers a different Quest in each Phase. One NPC will offer Quests to unlock Combat Prowess skills, another would offer Crafting Mastery, and so on. They will offer different Quests in each Phase.
Here are the Quests listed with their Phases, and their rewards:
Phase: Force Skill Tree: Specific Branch Unlocked: Quest Name: Reward
Phase 1: Combat Prowess: Ranged Accuracy: Angry Villagers: 10 Patrols unlocks, 20 obtains the Aurilian Banner

The following NPC's and their quest types:
Captain Sarguillo: Combat Prowess
Whip: Enhanced Reflexes
Silvarra: Heightened Senses
Quharek: Crafting Mastery
Alpoka: Heightened Senses
Once a branch is unlocked, you must grind experience (any type) and talk to Paemos, who will convert the normal xp into force xp. There are limitations on what kind of normal xp can be used in what tree. For instance, unarmed, combat or rifles xp is only suitable for the Combat Mastery and Enhanced reflexes. Merchant and crafting xp is suitable for Crafting Mastery, and so on.
The conversion ratio is often steep, you will have to grind hard in order to earn enough experience to fill each branch. This will be no walk in the park. Here are the ratio's:
Combat & Reflex xp
Weapons (any type) xp 30:1
Combat xp 3:1
Squad Leader xp 90:1
Bounty Hunter Investigation xp 5:1
Sense xp
Image Design xp 15:1
Dancing xp 10:1
Musician xp 10:1
Entertainer Healing xp 10:1
Survival xp 5:1
Scout xp 8:1
Trapping xp 15:1
Medical xp 10:1
Surveying xp 5:1
Merchant xp 4:1
Creature Handling xp 9:1
Slicing xp 3:1
DNA Sampling xp 3:1
Crafting xp
General Crafting xp 8:1
Architect xp 35:1
All other crafting 5:1
The easiest method would probably be to pick your six branches from the Combat Prowess and Enhanced Reflexes trees, as with an elite melee profession, you should be able to grind xp very fast. Once you max out your xp, travel to the village, and talk to Paemos to have the xp converted to force xp. Then it's back to the grind for more xp, until you max, return to the Village and Paemos, convert the xp, rinse and repeat, until you have enough force xp to master a new box, and then you talk to Noldan, for training.
If there are no branches unlocked for you to train in, you are perhaps waiting for a later stage, simply grind xp anyway, and convert it, until your force xp is maxed out, and then max out your other normal xp too, so that when you unlock another branch, you have plenty of xp to devote to the new branch, speeding up your grinding process.
No Force-Sesitive xp cap has been discovered as yet, but it is safe to assume that like most other xp's, it is twice the current highest skill box.
Once you have unlocked six branches, and converted enough xp to master those branches, you will be eligible for the Jedi Padawan Trials.
