I'm currently a MTKA/MCH looking at a respec and someone sudjested MBH/MCH with some medic...

Question, when looking at a skill calculator I didn't see any weapon skills listed in the BH tree... Do you have to take a direct combat tree (carbine/pistol/etc..) to be able to use any weapons as a BH? If so it doesn't sound like there'll be enough points to do what I'm thinking as I have a few points tied up in FS skills...

Thanks in advance...

You will get skill mods indefense and ranged weapons from every line except the Investigation line. As far as being able to "use" weapons with BH/CH, you can just use weapons that have no skill requirement. Once you get MBH, you can use a Scatter Pistol.


As far as having CH in your temp, I wouldn't reccommend it if you are planning on hunting player Jedi. My former temp was MBH/MCH, but since MCH gives you no defensive or weapon points, it doesn't make for a good combo with BH. However, if you want to hunt NPCs, MCH (or creature skills in general) can come in handy, particularly for those pesky NPCs that get stuck in trees (the pet will do an excellent job of pulling them out of those spots). You might have some trouble with some of the boss NPCs, but just eat some food and get a good, sliced rifle, and you should be fine.

Thanks for the advice... I think I get it now... If I did the math right I can take a couple boxes of one of carbine or something too which should help with that specific weapon some I think...

Here's my advice.....


1. If you are going MBH to help out MCH..... um... okay. But you don't get any state recoveries from MBH.... so you may be better off taking something like pistols, carbs, or rifles. so I suggest against MBH / MCH


2. If you are going MBH / MCH to hunt jedi, I STRONGLY suggest you redecide... you will get eaten up alive, and after you are dead the jedi will kill your creature. and even if your creatures manage to kill the jedi, you still don't get paid/xp for it since the jedi killed you the mission goes incomplete. so i suggest against MBH / MCH

To follow up on my original post I've decided to go MBH/MCH/Medic 0040... It's working out great... The same missions that were killing me before I'm completing without too much trouble... The results are much more what I would have expected from white or blue mobs... I'm much more able to protect the pets and provide better support...

Thanks for all the advice...
