I've started another character on my server and working my way through medic. I see most people choose Pistols as their weapon when pursuing CM, but is it possible to be successful as a CM/Fencer? or TKA? just curious, I was thinking about doing CM/Fencer but wanted to know of any pitfalls or hurdles others have encountered.

so long as you understand you will HAVE to use a ranged weopon of some sort in order to move up the ranged support specialist tree under marksman, which is a CM requirement.


whether you keep your pistol/carbine/rifle skills that will come along side the ranged support skills is up to you.

You need a weapon with LOW attack speed, or your heals/posions will have a huge delay on them in combat.


That singles out rifleman, and most of carbine.



I'd suggest pistol, it can be fired at range and is extremely quick. (and actually really dosent make a bad support weapon either)

the biggest problem is you don't have enough points to master CM and a melee profession

Not true.. any weapon can be used to earn the combat xp needed for ranged support.

Both of you are wrong, its possible, ranged support specialist doesnt need a ranged weapon, only combat xp, u get combat xp as tka, or fencer.


and for zariell, if you master riflemen, every rifle shoots at less than 1 sec. thats why i am riflemen/combat medic

actually you dont need any weapon to gain combat xp now, you can heal while in combat and gain it. gratned it will take a long time, but you can do it
