Ayami - MCH since september '03 and until NGE.
The removal of CH and the NGE in general is the dumbest thing a company has ever done. period.
CH deserves to stay, and SOE deserves to be *#&$^#*@ until they are #*&$& and then *#&$ some more!
LONG LIVE THE CREATURE HANDLERS!!!

- I support a rollback and keeping & balancing the old combat system.
...and making SWG a better place to be. Your voice counts!

I first would like to say Hello to everyone. I just started the Game 4 days ago.

I have a question on the Marksman Skill Tree. I have completed the first 2 rows LVL 1&2 in the rifle,carbines,pistols, and combat. All my Capacity bars are full in LVL 2 rows. I am ready to go into the LVL 3 rifle,carbines,pistols, and combat.I bought my first Trainning skills LVL 1 & 2 from an NPCs in town, when i went back to buy my 3rd set, the NPCs is trying to sell me the same skills I all ready have LVL2s. My question. Is their another Marksman NPCs i should be looking for in other towns that i can buy my LVL 3 skills from?? Or should I be asking other players in the game to teach my thier Marksman skills? Thanks in advance for any help.

P.S. I have been reading the Manual that came with the game.

Save your credits and ask a Master Marksmanor even someonethat has already been trained in that area...They get XP for training you.

Cheers!

Hmm. You must not have had enoughcredits when you attempted to purchasethe Tier 2 skills. Once you spend the appropriate xp you will have the skill and your track will be set on the Tier 3 lines. It is cheaper to get trained by PCs because they can and often do do it for free.

If you're going to be buffed then don't worry about the meditation line. The other three lines are what are going to give you your powers, skills, and moves. The meditation line will allow you to power boost which isn't needed with buffs, force of will, which will allow you to revive yourself if incapped, and the ability to heal your own wounds. Nice bonuses, but not really necessary.

I agree with the last post if you are going to actually use unarmed to fight with. then don't worry about meditate but if your looking to preempt a doc meditate is your best friend.

I guess the biggest question is what is your template meant for? PvE or PvP?

If it's PvE then you can *probably* get away with just meditate. But for PvP meditate won't hold up for a second against someone with Doc buffs, Especially if you don't have your mind primary maxed out for power boost.

Then I guess that answers my question.. Looks like 0333 would be best.

Yes I am a mbh. Dont get annoyed, just looking for some advice.

I have always wished for some ability to have melee combat, and for my personal tastes have always liked unarmed. Now the way things are now I have the ability to go mbh(I cant bring myself to drop this) and tk w/3 trees.

So my question is:

If given the choice which 3 skill trees would you take?

Also are going these 3 worth your time, or does tk only get good at master?

Thanks.

Depends on what you want to use the TK skills for. If you go up the defense tree you can augment your melee and ranged defense. The mediate tree is great in that you can heal all wounds, poison and disease just by meditating. Knockdown might good to get as a defensive measure if someone gets to close..then you can backup and finish them off with ranged...depends on what they are of course. Personally if I was MBH I would take the defensive and meditate trees and the offensive trees are no good w/o the melee defense...
