Carbineer Archive

Currently I am only Commando 2140, but will be working toward:

Master Commando

Medic 0100

Scout 4040

CH 2100

Once I get there and get some cash gathered, I am thinking of changing to:

Master Commando

Master Smuggler

Medic 0100

Master Commando

3/2/0/0 Medic

4/0/3/4 Scout

I'm considering changeing this. Being a one trick pony sucks

Whenever I was a commando I was 0/0/4/4 andBH 0/0/0/4. Having three sources of high output damage was nice, but really killed any fun aspects...I could mow through a lot of things.

I am sure this has been done before but what is your current template? If you have had different carbineer templates in the past put those up to. Please give me your thoughts on the possitives and negatives of your template.

My original template master carbineer ,medic, master ranger as a bothan

My second template had carbineer/TKA as a Tradoshian back before powerboost

My current one is master carbineer and bounty carbine 3 with medicas a zabrick

As you can see I cant seem to get away from carbine in this game even when i was a master doctor master combat medic I was using carbines.

My bothan template was a lot of fun and I really miss his ability to go anywhere by himself. The only downs was I was slowly giving up my less usefull ranger skills for CH. This template was back in july/aug so I missed out on a lot of cool ranger abilities so I may try it again. He also was a rifleman for a while but I enjoy KD attacksmore than overpriced (for a bothan) mind attacks.

My poor trandoshian just didnt suit myplay style. Not sure what exactly bothered me but hewas just offa little for my tastes.

My zabrak was a master doctor master/ everything else for a while till I settled on combat medic. Recently I got tired of playing support only and have switched to an offensive role. I currently have carbineer master and bounty carbine 4 as my template. I am still debating on bh carbine 3 0r 4 cause with 3 I can keep medic. I love the offensive power of my carbine backed with both carbineer and bh carbine. I think its a shame that to hit the speed cap I need bounty hunter carbine. The only bounty hunter special I use regulary is fireknockdown and thats in pvp. I would love to get my skill points back from the bounty hunter but the speed is just too importain in my opinion.

I have been thinking of giving up bounty hunter and going tka to complement my skills. I like the close range I kill you combined with the 50 meters high damage of the laser carbine. Much less the much needed defense to status effects TKA gets.

BH Carbine 4, 0 3 4 0 Carbineer, 0 0 4 4 Medic.

i didn't bother with the speed line of Carbineer because i have a lot of mods already from BH and Master Marksman (the MM box gives +10 acc, +5 speed), but the accuracy was a big deal for me...right now i'm at +145 accuracy, which i feel isa necessity with all of the TKA/Pistoleer/Smugglers and Fencer/Pistoleer/DF 4 types running around stacking ranged defense...

additionally, that gives me leg shot 3, crippling shot, burst shot 1 and 2, and suppressionfire2 from Carbineer, all of which i use very heavily. since i have /knockdownfire and /underhandshot, i can afford to pass on charge shot 1, and i don't really miss the area attacks (although i do realize how awesome /fullautoarea2 is...my brother is Trandoshan Master Carbineer/Master Doctor...sick).

also...by keeping that much in Medic, i am able to control my HAM costs, as well as save a ton of credits by supplying my own medical supplies. (i have my brother make me crates of Stim B's and C's, but i only use them in 'emergency' situations so that i can make sure i have 'em when i really need them).

this template has rocked for me...i used to have all of my skill points tied into BH and CH, and this template is much more enjoyable, as well as being more effective for me. i VERY rarely miss anymore, and i'm able to string some nice things together...

/confusionshot /suppressionfire2 /confusionshot /burstshot1 /burstshot1, etc...

oh...and i'm a Zabrak, so i recover Mind like a madman. helps when you heal so much to control HAM cost...

(btw...with my stats set how they are, and using avg HAM cost weapons, /confusionshot is only burning about 84 HAM per shot.../knockdownfire and /underhandshot burn HAM like mad, but i can use /confusionshot and /burstshot1 to deal a lot of dmg and stack states w/o eating HAM too fast)

good luck, and have fun with whatever you choose...

I'm going with Master Commando and BH 0444, just for the fun of it. I know the LLC is "just another clone" of the FT but it gives me all "special heavy weapons". Carbine is becouse I feel much more like a commando with a carbine in my hands. Pistol line is for the LP of course.

I do mostly RP so strength in PvP isn't that much needed, and I get enough for PvE.

My Commando is working on MCommando BH 0/0/4/4 Novice Medic. Gonna make that on TC2 today and test some things out with it in between quests.

Master Commando and Master Smuggler. No real reason, other than curiosity: Can I pick two gimp professions, and be twice as gimped as the most gimped one?

A better and more popular choice is TKM/Commando if you are looking for template advice.
