I'm a Commando/Pistoleer right now, but I've been thinking, and I would like to be able to use all of the heavy weapons. That includes the LLC. I can't master Commando and BH I don't think, so my question is this. If I were to get the entire LLC tree of BH, would it be effective to use the LLC (speed and accuracy and such), or would it be a complete waste to even try to be able to use all of the heavy weapons in the game?

LLC is useless for pvp but great fun for pve with lots of damage. It wont it anything though unless you stand still with the closest enemy within 15m

Actually, I just looked at the skill tree, and you don't get anything for the LLC at master except for Cone2. All of the accuracy and speed you'll have at LLC IV.
So I guess I answered my own question, meh. Plus, by adding the LLC to my arsenal, I'll have every available damage type. A bit weak on Cold, since the only 2 things with cold damage are the SG82 rifle and Cyroban Grenades, which are both pretty lousy, but other than that I should be able to hit the vulnerabilty of everything in the game except things that only have lightsaber. I'll keep enough Pistoleer to have the Geo Pistol cert. I'd like to get Fan Shot as well, but I don't quite have enough skill points, so I'll just have to live without it.

I thought commandos got an AP3 lightning cannon? Why would you want the LLC?

It has several advantages, the main one being that it doesn't run out of charges like the Commando lighting cannon (similar to Rocket Launcher, etc)

The Commando Heavy Weapon that isElectric Damage is very inaccurate (something like +40 accuracy), it has limited number of charges, lowest of all the heavy weapons, and its only AP1 or maybe AP2, I don't have one on me to look at.

At the moment im working towards llc level 4 and ive enjoyed using it.
My llc fires quickly I find due to a rather nice speed slice i put on it and at close range i find the specials doing around the 3k mark against most things.
I fact whilst I was going through the llc tree I decided I was going to drop bh and take Commandoprofession for BIG guns, and keep my pistoleer skills.

quite simply the ppl who nay say llc have no idea, in pve they are awesome, in pvj they are awesome as well my llc at 1098max dmg and 4 speed can hit jedi for 2000+pts of dmg, my llc was built with advanced scope and +68dmg krayt tissue, giving it +70accuracy @30m if i'm standing still at 17m i get a +17 on the targets bar add in a /aim and i find it hard to miss, only really usefull when the jedi is on it's back but it can sure hurt them and can mean the difference between wining and loosing.

If you shoot a jedi without him having his sabre out already, he can't block the 1st shot, right? So it wouldn't be a bad idea to start the fight with lightning single 2 and then switching to your weapon of choice. I'll have to try that out

I "Work" out of an Outpost on a regular basis, this "Garrison" as myself and some friends like to call it, is a huge target for the opposing faction. Now, I'm not the kind of person who can stand there and let some uber pike or rifleman take down the place, I feel I have to at least try and do something. Ok, you know it, I know it, and chances are the person soloing the Atst's knows it too, I, being a commandoam essentially commiting suicide, but I have to try. Since the FT is pretty useless at PvP and the AR is, well, lets face it it's a giant snot throwing gun (I may as well pick my nose, run up to the enemy and rub my booger on them). I started a dabble in the LLC, having a bit of scout already and enough HWxp to get all bar 3/4 of LLC 4, I thought cool, I now have something that has some AP. Well the new toy is nothing to brag about, but it has a 3.2 speed, which is a novelty as my FT is 5.1 (damage sliced). I went to have some fun with it and learn how it worked, man it's cool and a great light show too, then I tried a few single 1's all of a sudden BAM! I'm down. I thought "Hmmm, my armour must've died and let some good damage through" I checked my armour and all was good. I got up and dusted myself off and, after a heal I tried again. I targeted and hit single 1, WOAH!!! my HAM all went down significantly, just in 1 special!!! Now I'm not sure if this is normal for a non MBH and it isn't so bad when you become a Master. If this is what a BH experiences when they use a special, it sux! No wonder they get "feign death" it's so they can survive while using specials.
This is NOT a complaint, it's........
1. Astatement warning people about the huge HAM cost's using the LLC.
2. /Salute to all Bounty Hunters who have stuck with a profession that, I think, maybe more bawked than Commando.

Im just in the process of grinding the bh profession for the badge now, my reason for changing isI loved the llc and decided to go commando for more big guns.
I find when im buffed the llc is powerful, especialy at close range where im doing about 3-3.5k damage per hit now take into account the speed increases I have as a bh for this weapon and the accuracy i have (cant foreget a nice speed slice droppping the speed down to 3.1) this is a nice weapon. I dont find myself eating through my HAM like you did though I use canape and brandy with my buffs.
The damage I quoted was using lightening shot1 (or what ever the hell it is call) this can be effective against most opponents, not tried this in pvp yet so its only based on pve and i am currently only on llc level 3.
Hope this helps.

a couple of things, bh doesnt get feign death, thats a smuggler skill, and yes the hame costs on the llc suck, and no they dotn get any better as you master the tree of profession
