Hello all,
I have decided, yes immediately after the fixes that many are crying "nerf" about, to join the ranks of the combat medic. Now, I am still debating with myself over my secondary skills, namely my 81 remaining skill points.
According to my calculations I can get 4 full bars in a melee profession of my choice (currently I favor 4-0-4-4 pikeman), or I can master a ranged (in my case it would be carbines).
Pros for melee (pikeman 4-0-4-4)
Melee mitigation 2
Pretty good Center of Balance
Polearm Sweep 1 & 2
Decent accuracy & speed
Nightsister & Energy Lances
Get to carry a big stick!
Pros for ranged (M.carbiner)
Ranged mitigation 3
Counterattack
Laser Carbines are very powerful
Master Carbiner
As you can see, there are clear advantages to either, note that these are representitive and are by no means meant to be an exaustive list of advantages.
If anyone has any advice, i.e. why you chose one of the above (or something similar), I would love to hear it.

just do:
rifleman/CM
best template i've ever seen. Rifleman is one of the best (if not the best) professions in PvE and PvP.
CM is nasty in PvP. And you can heal yourself and others of course in PvE.
Rifle/CM is a good Krayt soloer. It's a good "insert creature/npcwithout100% pro energy" killer.
If you're a CM on Kettemoor, you're risking getting tripple incapped whenever you fight in PvP.
