most people will say go up concealment first to get concealshot...or coutersniping first to get StartleShot2 for AOE but these being both random damage i would stay away from that it might take alittle longer to kill that way..i went up sniping first..stack mind bleeds and HS3 all mind damage you will kill your enemy alot quicker concentrating on 1 pool and you having the high mind stats will help alot!!

Hi, I recently decided that maybe it's time to change profession and I was thinking of going commando. So naturally I wanted to ask you guys a few questions first. Before answering, bear in mind that I pvp a lot, and plan to do so in the future, so here it goes:

1) Is commando good for something in PvP ?

2) Does a commando have any chances of survival in a 1v1 encounter ?(and I don't mean an unbuffed novice image designer )

3) Every commando I see in the game relies entirely on his flamethrower, are the other weapons that useless ? (elaborate a little if u can pls)

4) Since defenses have been lowered a bit in publish 7, can you get a hit on another player in at least 10 shots ? I'm guessing accuracy/speed in commando is not that great, but *if* you get that lucky shot, doesthat make it count (in terms of damage, I've seen commando weapons are pretty high damage) ?

5) Should I go commando now ?

Thanks

Commando is not good until master or at least FT 4.

1) Nope.
2) Nope, becuase your flamethrower ( which is the only real weapon we got ) cant hit the side of the barndoor. But if you get a full hit on the person, that person wont have much of a change.
3) Flamethrower is the only valid weapon. HAR ( heavy acid rifle ) misses to often, is to slow and doesnt do enough damage. It got no dot effects and is in every way worse than the flamethrower. Grenades are nothing but a joke. You might aswell throw your composite helmet at the enemy...Same Area effect. Rocketlaunchers are decent against turrets...but not worth their cost.
4) A commando have minimun defenses on the egde to NO defenses. But I havent pvped with the new changes. So im not entirely sure. I guess we will get our ass kicked a little slower than usual.
5) Commando is a change from the other profession. Although all the flaws I do enjoy it. The flamethrower does it all Commando is great in PvE. Absolutely great. Flame a Rebel trooper for 12000 points of damage! Yearh! Your choice, be prepared to be disappointed with PvP though

My boss nerfed me. He says Im not allowed to surf the SWG forums as long as he's around.
Today he's not here

Ow btw. The launcher pistol is great for lagging up your opponent! Just to bad you need the whole pistoleer tree in order to get some specials for it

Yeah I hope we see something aswell

About how long do those take to master? I'm going for combat medic right now because im already high enough in medic to do that. So I was going to cruise through that first.
