I'm starting to get low on Skill points. Wondering if it makes sense to keep Pistol, Rifle, and Ranged Weapon lines in the Marksman profession. I realize that Ranged Weapon provide some ranged defense and such, but wondering if in the long run it makes much of a difference. Thank you very much.

well unless your a master marksman the pistol and rifle branches wont realy help you. And if points are short droping some of marksman support wont hurt to bad. Once the next publishcomes out we will be a lot stronger. Basicly if your master carbineer with only carbine in marksman you will probably be quite happy with it depending on what your other skills are. Effective yes...uber no. But with the right second profession you can do extreamly well pvp with just carbineer and its carbine branch in marksman. Personaly i like doc : )

Thats essentailly what I was expecting. I'll never be uber, but my complement is probably gonna wind up being Ranger, not for PVP obviously, but because thats seems like fun!

ranger has a lot of issues but personaly i love the profession. You should have plenty of fun. and with cammo etc you can hunt some large prey once you hit master. Look for some + cammo be enhanced clothing and get yourself a DXR6 for PvM with an imp stock if you can swing it for the speed boost. Acid damage is the best choice we got for most mobs pvm. Off hand i am prety sure all it takes to get ranger is master scout. If that is the case it will leave you with enough points for all of the marksman support branch wich can come in handy with warning shot and a bit more over all acc/speed. Or you could take novice medic and heal yourself. Id go with just the first box in marksman support for aim if you need it and the small stat boosts and pick up novice medic. Our ham costs for specials suck so healing is invaluble. Grab yourself some 400+ stim b's and some brandy/buffs and have fun killing rancors : ) solo even

the +10 accuracy and +5 speed you get from master marksman isnt really a big factor unless you're big into pvp, and if thats the case you should devote yourself to all combat professions anyway.
