Ok, ive been a pistoleer (only novice) and a smuggler 1/4/2/4. other than that (and master rifles) i have ALWAYS had a melee template.. im toying with the idea of getting 0/0/4/0 smuggler and master pistoleer, has good state defenses and looks like a fun melee profession.. if i like it i might eventually go BH too. any advice? is pistols something good to get into? my prob is i have always been melee heh and its what i know and love. i have fun with range but haven't done it in forever. any advice on if that would be something good to get into?

I love pistols and i will never change even if the Combat Blanance never happens. I think its great fun and i love playing the game from a position where its not the easiest FOTM to pound one "I WIN" special until the cows come home. I would only recommend this if you have alot of patience, money, and skill.

only if your server is full of nubs. You need a uberpistol of every different damage type. Only using a geo will get you killed.

Pretty true for the MOST part. Armor comes in two flavors: Stun and Kinetic. If you're not doing damage with the geo, switch to a DX2 or Rep blaster. Usually you can find a weakness in their armor resists. If that doesn't work, switch to the gun with the best accuracy mods and last ditch away. Be sure to use bleeds and intimidate as well. I beat a melee stacker the other day because I used a DX2 with good accuracy mods... couldn't hit him with anything else, including my 502 pup'd geo blaster.

No, I am no noob, but its been at least 2 months since I mastered and dropped TKM. But decided to get it back! :cheers: but, where to grind, where to grind 
almost at unarmed IV, but any advice? Tried all the mobs on Tat, Corellia, Dant (quenkers), but I am getting little to 0 xp

You should be getting joy from the Quenkers etc. It might be wise to read the stickies for other strategies. I started doing Quenker missions when I became Novice TKA and Quenkers (and other similar missions e.g. Hurrtons) gave around 2000+xp (paid well too)
But read the stickies and newbie guides, I found them helpful

Is master sword/master brawler enough to hold your own in pvp/pve? I am not sure if I should master a second melee or just dabble for defenses. Also not sure how much medic I need if I go after some big game. I know everyone hates these questions so I will apologize in advance.
