My template is mcm doc 0440 and pistoleer 0044. hit mind poisons on people in pvp, stopping shot/fan shot, and knockdown with pistolwhip. Plus rez and buffs for the whole group. It is a pretty viable option but you have to know a master doc to make stuff for you/buy stuff from.

mcm doc 0440 and pistoleer 0044


thats probably the best PvP template for CM.


stacking the variuos health poisons with pistol bleed 1+2 is great.

Depends on what your looking for.


I was at one point a MCM/MD with Pistol IV. Its a Uber healer and you can easly keep a rather large group alive and well on the most harsh of planets.


Problem is, if you want to solo... you cant... or at least not very well.

Prior to the Vehicle publish, using a Rock Bettle I could solo about any non aggressive critter. It would just take time to do missions higher then level 15.


If you want solo combat or solo pvp, i suggest you do what the other posters have stated and drop some doctor for pistoleer.

I'd like to know where you got the extra skill point. By my calculations you should only be able to get 0043 or 0034 in Pistoleer and have only 1 point left over...maybe my math is off /shrug

That is good for PvP if you have a group with you. In PvE you are a target I cannot fight off a borvo thug without a buff. But if you do get in a group in PvP if you hang back and rush in and out you are the bane of your enemy.

This is the exact template I have had for several months now. I enjoy it despite its flaws. You will need a pet to be able to solo though. So keep faction pets in mind. I've contemplating switching to Rifle IV to take better advantage of my mind poisons but you can stack on a disease to incap the person if need be.

This is not a self sufficient template though, you'll be missing the abilities to survey your own resources which makes harvesting more difficult, you'll need a guild or second character supporting you. Be aware that Combat Medicines can be expensive and even if you're buying resources the resources needed are a tad bit specialized.

I used to sell CM meds on my server, barely anyone bought em and in the end it was not worth the storage capacity. Of course in the end I just closed up shop anyways.

So by and large, yes, being a CM you need to be fairly self sufficient as its hard to find other CMs that will sell meds, albeit not impossible.

I pretty much removed myself from any hope of doing anything in terms of combat solo.



Doctor/CM.... with 0 marksmen skills other than the required ranged, no brawler... nothing nada. I don't even carry so much as a CDEF pistol.



Life can be tough at times, but it's good I know plenty of combat people always more than happy to have me in they're group.

That's what I have done as well. It's not that I can't solo anything (in fact we *can* solo just about anything in the game with enough patience to let the poisons do their job), it's just that that srt of combat (attack, run, peace, wait, repeat) is not my thing.


I *love* how the doc/CM template behaves in group settings and this is why I keep the template, but for solo work, I play a second, more traditional combat character.
