Now I can only climb one tree in commando and I was wondering which you recommend.

Well, if you wanna use a Flamethrower or an Acid Rifle, go up its specific tree If you want grenades, go Field Tactics...Personally if I could only go 1, I'd go Heavy Support, to get the certs in the higher lvl Commando stuff like the LC and whatnot

I would suggest the grenades. It's a nice secondary weapon(or will be, I hope) and you can get some defence bonuses along with that. Only one I can see worth putting into if you're not going for master commando and already have the pistoleer class.

Wait till the big uber changes go in and I could really tell you more. Currently Id suggest the flamethrower. Grenades are junk Atm. As for the defensive mods ehhhhh only thing that makes going up grenades bearable.

Agreed.


The Support line would probably give you the best return for the points used.

If Youran Impwho PvP's alot (What Smugglers don't?) then i Would say go Grenades. After they Get fixed Should be Great in PvP


If your a Rebel Then go Heavy Support for anti AT-ST


However i have to agree with those who posted above me...we are very much in the dark about our own Class's capabilities...So Give us aweek or so till the *first* changes go in, then We can tell you much better.


Personaly i don't think they are gonna do it, We need a Ranger style Rebuild IMO

yeah commando needs to be replanned i think... new skills, new modifiers, new feel..... in its current state it dont have as much potential as a 'commando' should...



of course how ever they decide to do it is however they do it... and im still gonna get some commando skills no matter what

I'd say heavy weapons, you get all the certs and they are great fire and forget weapons, not a main skill, but a very helpful one.

You will also find yourself using less healing as your pets and yourself take significantly less damage.

Hi All,


I recently dropped Master Carbineer,a profession that i liked much but needed to do something else for a while to make sure i don't get bored.


So my previous template was:
Master Carbineer / Master CH / Medic 3,2,0,0


Now, what i would like to try is:
Commando flame line only / Master CH / Medic 1,0,0,0


Basically, in PvP i will suck unless i turn this into a pet fest, something i don't like much. But that's not too bad since i'm a bit tird of PvP.


in PvE, i think i will be more powerfull, with the pets and flamer. But i will have less medical power. So i can expect more downtime recovering mind since i'll need more shots to heal myself. But being a former Carbineer, i've many Master Doc friends and i'm a crazy buff buyer


So basically, from commandos here, is using commando Flame line only is worth dropping master carbineer and some medic skills? Online, some say yes, others no. I feel lost and i'm afraid i did something stupid by dropping it.


I would really love some input on this.Only thing missing now is my Unarmed 4 and i'm still not sure if i could continue or re-make my master carbineer.


Thanks,
