I'm MBH MSmuggler with novice commando... it's worked well for me. I can take lvl 82's with no trouble, never been successful against a jedi though But anyway, I'm getting bored and wondering if anyone had any experience or insight into MBH/MCommando and if that template offers anything cool?

MBH gives Commando the damage specials that it's currently missing. The things commando has to offer are currently AOE and some handy weapon DoTs. The RL is a low action version of Underhanded Shot and the ASL is a AOE version of Eye Shot. Commando is made to apply damage and states over a large group of critters and as such doesn't really shine until you start taking on multiple opponents. In fact, if they ever fix the AOE on commandos then Commando would be the King of AOE. No other profession would be able to match the damage from the weapons and DoT's over a large group of critters. Also, nothing's more fun than Concussion Shot + and AOE weapon lol. Yeah, and if you get the chance to, stack CoB with DS.

If you were not limited to Assault armor to hunt ranged professions with it would actaully be kinda nice. I looked into it, even had +25 in spd, acc and def for Hvy weapons. Had a great temp put together and could do well against creatures...the moment a player pulled an energy weapon.....it was over. If you always fight in a group, then you may do okay...if you ever fight solo...like against a jedi...unless they are asleep...you are not going to do very well.

I played with that combo on TC for awhile during the revamp testing.The defenses stacked are insane,but w / a lack of useful commando weapons it really isnt beneficial.The problem comes in w/ the fact that commandos should and were intended to be the damage dealers.The dev's sadly fell very short of this mark when compared to other combat proffs.In pve its not bad ,but i primarily focus on pvp,so that where i base my opinions.


I can tell the most annoying guy in large scale pvp is the smuggler/commando/pistoleer guy.Add ranged arms,grab a rocket luancher and you have an 80m kd/root in one shot.Grab a streamer and you have a 90m AOE kd,root,etc. etc.Yes,90 meters becuase the streamer has a 10 meter splash damage radius.


First hand experience,having a group of rifleman rooted and then kd,send in a few jedi to finish them off.Great crowd control.
