i'm currently a Carbineer / CM going for master in both , i'm just wondering if anyone has tried this? and if so what is itlike?
i've always liked Carbineers for the simple fact that there isn't many on my server and i went CM to try out the posions / diseases
i wanted to see howeffectivei would do with action posions / diseases . double action bleeds and action shot i know action is a healable line but i think with ranged knockdowns and dizzy it wouldn't be too bad?
and plus there is too many rifleman / cm around , i just wanted to try somthing new but you know what happens when you try new stuff out it usually turns out to be pretty pants 
any thoughts on this would be most welcome

pfft, so did I
although I never did finish leveling my carbineer, the one thing CM helped with while leveling carbineer unbuffed was to heal myself after firing several specials O.o
edit: let me be more specific... one of the "tricks" folks told me to try was prone and shoot until the creature notices you. however, it's impossible to do so if you plan to use poisons/diseases, since the mob will charge towards you right away.

I'm currently master cm/carbineer 0/4/0/0. I like it because there are a lot of specials that can keep my enemy at bay allowing my poison to do it's work, or allowing me to put some distance between myself and my enemy. Full auto single has a chance to blind or dizzy, legshot 3 stuns, actionshot 2 postures down, and crippling shot is just really powerful. However, the HAM costs of carbineer are ridiculous.

I was Master Carbineer and Master Combat Medic. Scatter shot is really helpfull when using mind poison, but usually I used Action poison, Action Shot and then hammered Legshot 2 (LS3 is broken) untill they died.
A bunch of area poisons and then spaming full auto area 2, Action shot 2 and Charge Shot 2 can be sweet for crowd control.
Carbine speed sucks, as you know, and speed tapes are really a good idea to get.... lots of them.
Stunned lowers resistances, but I don't know if it affects poison resistances. I might be worth checking out.

legshot3 is not really "broken" it costs a little more ham then legshot2, and does the same damage. In my personal experience legshot3 has a higher accuracy mod. However if its supposed to be this way i don't think so. But i will continue to use legshot3 more then legshot2, (for my personal opinion and experience (still a carbineer) that it has an accuracy mod. carbineer for 7months and still loving it
)

Well, redundant might be a better word. But fact isit has the same damage as the lower HAM version which makes it suspicious.
After all, other bar-specific 3-attacks have higher damage than their 2-version. (Health shot 3, Head shot 3) which sort of sets a norm I think.

I was a master combat medic, master carbineer for 5months. It is a wonderful support proffesion. Ideal in any pvp group imo. Area heals, Area poisons, area state attacks, area knockdowns, area posture downs. You can make quiet the differance in a battle if you play your cards right. I would use action disease and poisons a lot. (mind damage is ever so popular i used action for my theory of, if their action pool is gone they cant use their specials.) And if your bigtime in pve, get some spidervenom, make some health poisons, and bring your carbine along, you will be able to take anyone.anymob, anywhere. (at least i did) super health ticks, and battering them with your blaster fire. heres a picture for all you unbelievers. NS, /toss healthpoison, stack a few more viles of poisons, get out your enhanced e11(very nice health dot) lay on the states, and posture them down, don't go for a kd, i never bothered to at least, i would toss health poison, enhanced e11, fas2, actionshot1. All and anything would die. For pvp, id use spidervenom action poisons (surprise can be a powerful element, most people expect mind poison) 1-2ticks, legshot3,legshot2, actionshot1/2 =another dead player. oh and if your going with this template, other medics are your worst enemies. (cm/doc) Burstrun, kite your opponent, use the /aim command ALOT stack your poisons, always run ALWAYS KITE YOUR OPPONENT/S ALWAYS ALLWAYS ALWAYS KITE. Never stand your ground with this template you will be rotten tapioca pudding in the toilet if you stand your ground. (if you eat thatikillo brandy psg, synthesteak great great, but always run anways) and if your in a group.
let them do all the work, and you do yours (eliminating and taking control of enitre groups) Well thats just from my 5months of experience as a rodian master carbineer, master combat medic. Good luck. /salute

My main character is CM and Carbineer. CM speaks for itself. Carbineer I like for a few reasons. The HAM costs is nothing when buffed compared to a rifleman, you HAM pretty much comes out of your health and action pools. Good Special attacks also. Plus, I have some of the best laser carbines on the server. I have sliced 417 damage, with pup 555. For instance, I can hit a tusken and a gurk using a special shot for over 5500 in damage. I plan on leaving my main character alone:-)

DoT weapons of that strength matching your weapon type are too rare to count on ever getting. Stick to just a response on the template only plz and how well it works for you.
