Thread: TKA or Commando
I'm a master commando going for master TKA for the defensive mods, and for the cool melee specials. From my limited PvP experience I'd say that TKA/Doc is the best combo for one-on-one. If you're in a PA and do a lot of group PvP, however, a commando is very nice to have around. With /flamecone2 you can set multiple enemies ablaze, and then step back and use grenades or heavy weapons to do some massive damage to your enemy. Once you've set your enemy on fire, though, flamethrowers are useless against composite armor. I tried using /flamesingle2 on a master TKA in composite, just to see if it had any effect, and the TKA just ignored it. He used the knockdown/dizzy combo (which considering there's supposed to be a 30 second timer for knockdown that's gotta be a major exploit) and then killed me at his leisure. Then he ran to the river to extinguish himself, although he probably wouldn't have been incappedif he hadn'tsince he was so heavily buffed.
Another good compliment to commando in PvP could be the fan shot line from pistoleer and the pistol line from smuggler. There's some great defensive mods and knockdown moves in there. If you can knock someone down and then /flamesingle2 them while they're down, they're toast.

Cool thanks for the quick answer!
Master Commando/TKM is a killer combo, both for PvE AND for PvP. It may not be the ultimate PvP combo, but is sure as heck is one of the best. As for PvE......GOD. Get Mob nice and bunched-up, stack flame cone1, flame cone 2, commence to open a can of melee whoop - @ss. Once I am done with these stupid holothingies, I will be changing from Master Commando/Master Smug to Master Commando/TKM.

Yes, TKM/MC is a great combo of professions. I also took novice medic with diagnostics 1 for that little extra help. In the future I have other combinations I want to try like Master commando / master gunfighter, but I think Im always gonna hang onto my master commando, as it is what I like playing and what Im known for ![]()

Actually i was a master tkm\master doc. Rulled in pvp, with a good helment and good comp. fishak , muon and power boost, not to mention the doc, is very tough to beat. now doing the commando tkm, The one thing i noticed last night, BTW i am master TKM/ 3-0-3-0 commando, I dueled 3 people just to loose my buffs, and i kept going into the prone position to die faster. The melee defense is +64 and ranged defense +67, i could not get hit. it was toooo funny. i truly think a master commando and master tkm with a buff, will be very tough, or commando 3-0-4-0, with the pistol tree 0-0-4-0, will definetly be hard to knock down. my 2 cents. on pve i have definetly noticed that creatures don't hit you no where near as much. can someone comment, i may be wrong or just don't know better, it is early, lol
