Thread: PvP as a commando :)

I havent been commando very long, i intended to pick it up right when i first started the game but due to various things (Jedi grind etc) i got sidetracked and picked it up only a week or so ago.
Well today my guild held a halloween event for a few other imp guilds on the server, there were approx 15 of us before the event kicked off and the rebs heard of this and thought it would be a fun oppertunity to crash our party.
Well along came 30+ rebels, our little group didnt stand much chance, i could have jumped on my jedi to have some fun but decided to stay on my commando to test it out pvp wise.
Well with my mcommando/0044pistoleer/4030smuggler/4000CM i knew i wouldnt take direct hits too well so stayed 35m away from the nearest red. I pulled out my puped pre fix aoe proton rifle and wailed intims, leg hits and roots on the general area, loving the support role. when things got too much i aoe'd a few concussion hits and ran in took a few hits and fired off an aoe last ditch or two.
Well all i can say is wow! i know i didnt have a deciding factor in the outcome of the battle but it sure helped the imps. Well trounced the rebels and claimed an unlikely victory with them not returning for the remainder of the event. Even the guilds there commented on the unusual template (pretty much everyones either a bh or jedi) and how the assist role was great.
I just wish i had fraps running.
Anyways kudos to all commandos out there, its a very underated prof that with the right moves from other profs is great fun to play and a great help in pvp. Im looking forward to the next bit of pvp on my commando
good to hear that a commando kicked some booty, even if he is a dirty imp, 
did you find that you needed to heal alot once you became a target? i mean, i'mgoing to make a similar template, but i wantonly minimum healing abilities, maybe medicx24x, with tapes and be clothes of course.

Group PVP. Only works if your group really works together. If you area concussion for example its important to call targets and avoid area. Having an SL helps, because you can paint target and coordinate all attacks on one. You can also have a delegated healer to cover your rear parts.

We were fighting in New Iridonia right outside the mall, luckilygot myself positioned in an area where i could dive behind a few round naboos when things got too much.
For some reason the rebels didnt seem to notice me standing there in the mando spamming area states =/ the only way i took dmg was when i got hit by area attacks, incaps from the last ditches were infrequent but when they did happen i would just call for a quick heal on teamspeak.
I do have to stay it was great not being a tank in pp, even better not holding a glow stick
