Personally, I'm swordsman commando 
I was pistoleer commando for a while but got bored. I personally really like the combo, gives me the option to flame something as it gets close to melee range and while its burning beat the snot out of it with a power hammer. As for PvP... well I've always sucked at that, so I don't notice a huge difference, except that I tend to die a fair bit less often

Master Commando? Flamethrower Specialisation 4 is enough. You'll never use the crappy HAR, grenades are too disposable and slow, and Rockets cost too much.

I know master commando is often laughed at, but it's not AS bad as most people say it is if you're smart about it. A couple things:
1) Get some accuracy tapes (only works for grens, the HW ones are broken, I have +25 and it helps a lot)
2) Kneel... always remember to kneel when firing heavy weapons and you'll be able to hit things a fair bit better
3) Make friends with a weaponsmith. No weaponsmith stocks their vendors with top of the line best resource made heavy weapons and grenades (at least not on most servers, or they're darn hard to find). If you can convince them to make you some good weapons you can do a lot with commando.
I'll admit there is still a lot of trouble with the heavy weapons and grenades, but I personally find nothing more satisfying than sniping a guy at 60 meters with a Heavy Particle Beam Cannon when I'm running around with my power hammer out

Well, the particle beams are the commando equivalant of a T-21, 4.4 speed (can get speed sliced to around 3.2ish if you're lucky), fire em off once a second damage roughly 1-3k heavy piercing... theonly drawback is the accuracy is generally a bit poor compared to most other ranged professions, and it gets costly to fire them, most of the time they sell for about 20k for 30 shots

I just have a quick question...please dont flame me. I just want to know what usually happens after a BH engages a Jedi on a mission. Does the BH puke on the corpse, or does a BH usually congratulate the jedi on a good fight? I dont know, but I think that maybe if we were able to handle these bounties, they could be a great thing. I know that i've actually made friends with a couple jedi i've been lucky enough to get missions on. So yeah...what usually happens?

Hi, I'm not an ID and I have a question. I've looked around and am not quite sure, but after the publish, are only IDs going to be able to change your stats? Or is it that they just do it faster? Thanks.

That's correct. Only ID's will be able to do stat migration (unless your a new charachter and haven't left noob-station yet) takes a 10 minute session at an ID tent (i think) and it will be done quick as that. No more waiting around for days on end for your stats to migrate and watching those annoying little -1 floating above your head every time you turn around.

Good Morning,
one of my guild member changed to a pistoleer last week and he asked me that If he become a novice commando and get a certification about Launcher pistol so, pistoleer trees have any effect for Launcher Pistol?
(About speed or accurity) or just the Launcher Pistol have only effect for Commando Trees?(If It's true then
where's that tree?)
Thanks

Yes, all pistol skill mods (and special attacks)affect the launcher pistol. I can fire last ditch at the speed cap using my 2.6 speed launcher pistol works great against turrets.
works great against turrets.Voltrox (shadowfire)
