Well in duels the commando might not be superior, but in large scale PvP battles he rocks. It's all about the area effects and the innate effects on the weapons.

That heavy acid cannon thingy which blinds and shoots 64m, awesome in battles. Area Root, Area knockdowns and snares - totally insane.

In close quarters against AT-ST's and too brave PC's the flamethrower is very handy.

Using MBH/Mcommando/pistoleer 0004 on tc3-ep3. Duelling so far has gone ok.heavy acid cannon, Plasma flamer or just spam root with proton carbine in combo with underhand works ok. Knockdown recovery are your best friend though.


As for AT-ST its not lvl 125 but lv 65 and can be taken down so fast its not worth pulling it from your datapad. So far my experience of it in pvp is that it will die fast, well after yourself has got nailed with poison from every one using mcm in there templete now.


Commando though are good in mass pvp, weapon are good all around withheavy acid cannon up there at the top for rooting and underhand shots. All in all really fun in pvp but .... its blows hardcore in pve.


Advanced scatter, flamer, proton in any form its quite useless against even or higher level mobs due to the level damage the mobs got on you. You will just take a pounding and die not matter what your do.


PvP fun as heck but PvE suxs hardcore.

PvE in general in the CU sucks hardcore, sadly. Not just for us.


BTW, have you tried the Heavy Lightning Cannon (NOT the LLC)? It does more damage than the Acid Beam Cannon, also has AoE, and has a flame DoT to boot.

Best combo i tried was MBH/Commando/Medic.

Having the underhand, adv. critical shot, Torsoshot, etc. was awesome.

Combine that with your close, mid and long range weapons, to hit some doing a root on you is great.

Also combos with Carb or pistolerr is great. I tried some smugler temps too, but never got any KD using low blow, so removed that again.
