AlysBane Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 (edited) Flashpoint Black Talon BH Mako Affection Guide Run flashpoint (repeatable) Solo with Mako. I could do this at lvl 18 with Powertech easily. It has to be solo because you have to do all of the talking. It will take 24 runs to max out Mako thus maxing out her time bonus to crew skills such as Slicing. Spacebar through the talking if you wish to speed it up. It takes me 25min to run through at lvl 20. I like to run through it about once a play session. Gives decent amount of credits for the level as well from selling the items, and also have Mako dressed in Black Talon Operative gear which is very cool looking on her. The trench coat alone makes it worth it! You also get the Stawart Title. The end result is; Mako Affection +425pts Light Side +200pts These are the dialogue number options in order of the entire flashpoint; 2, 3, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 3, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 2, 2 Edited December 26, 2011 by AlysBane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazzerswords Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 BTW since I am a merc can I solo BT ? im only lvl 15 right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlysBane Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 I think you would be hard pressed to solo at 15th. The bosses are the problem not the rank and file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaliomus Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 What would be the difference in the gains if you were to go for dark side points instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlysBane Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Each light side choice gives +100 light and +40 affection. Each dark side choice gives +100 dark and -1 affection. So I guess net for the whole flashpoint you would lose out on 82pts of affection if that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterSith Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 (edited) The choices are a bit different if you go Dark Side. #1) 2, 3#2) 1, 1, 1, 1#3) 2, 3#4) 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1#5) 2, 1, 1, 3, 1, 2#6) 3, 1#7) 2, 2#8) 1, 2, 3, 2#9) 1#10) 1, 3, 3, 3, 2 #11) 2 (exit) Also, you get -30 affection if you choose the dark side points, x2. That's a 60 affection loss. This will give you +200 Dark SideMako Affection +300. Edited February 7, 2012 by PeterSith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusidious Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Yes you can, i just solo'd it at 11 (12 when i finished) and it wasn't that hard, do some kiting on the bosses when needed and let mako heal you a bit. This is very true. Either the Bounty Hunter or the Agent can solo this instance at level 10 because you can kite the bosses that need it. The Inquisitor and Warrior will have a much tougher time trying to solo this until at least level 14 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akinra Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 My BH was able to level from 12-21 doing Affection/Lightside runs with Mako. It is relatively easy with BH. I did the same with my Inquisitors. Sorcerer becomes very viable once you have Jolt (15 as I recall) so you can interrupt. Just put pet to passive so it walk towards you to get it out any pool o' death (the Mon Calamari's fire droid probes for instance). Use Jolt every time the Jedi pulls you in to interrupt her knock back and she is easy as pie. With Assassin/Operative it is super fast and easy, go in to stealth and sneak past anything you dont have to do for story to progress. Tip for EVERYONE: Getting to the bridge is fast and simple. Also, the game tracks every conversation you have regardless of how many times you have had the conversation until you complete BT. Short version, they stack until you complete BT. So... Run the flashpoint up until after the conversation with the captain. Complete that conversation. Step 1: Enter flashpoint, proceed to the Captain. Along the way, you will earn 15 affection from the Lieutennent, 30 from the droid, 30 from the guard, and 120 affection from the captain (along with 100 light side points.) Step 2: Log out. Step 3: Log in. You are now standing right outside the flash point. Step 4: Reset flashpoint. Step 5: Repeat from Step 1. Each itteration earns you 195 affection, and 100 Light Side points. It takes approximately 51 itterations. If you did all 51 itterations before Completing BT, you will gain all 10k affection, and 5.1k Light Side points in one fell swoop. I did this process in burts of about 10 "To The Captain" runs, then I would sell off all the grey/white gear I got along the way, mail all the gear to which ever alt could reverse engineer it, and then repeat. I have used the same process on 5 toons (Sith Sorcerer, Sith Inquisitor x2, BH x2, and my Operative). I figure the 4 hours will return fast with the mission time savings (15% faster on missions) in no time. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
