If you had 17 points to spend on Commando boxes after the novice box, which boxes would you get?
I'm a Master Archchitect, Master Smuggler and after I get the Novice Commando box I'll have 17 points left to spend and I'm not sure what way to go. Not really gonna be used for PvP, but thought I'd like to play a bit of a commando in PvE once in a while. Thought it would make a nice addition.
Any advice on which boxes I should go for and what weapons I would probably be better off using?

dabbling in commando? i haven't heard of that since, oh, before the great fs-combat-xp-grenade nerf. i'd have to advise against putting thosesp into commando, and going to pistoleer instead. maybe some of my brethren can elaborate better.
if you are absolutely dead set on17 sp in commando, and since the heavy weapon accuracy bonuses are spread through 3 branches, the only feasible choice would be the grenade line. you would get decent modifiers for all of the abilities that grenades provide, so hopefully they are something you would find usefull.

My main reason for wanting to go Commando is just so I can use Last Ditch with a heavy weapon with a dot lol.
Yeah it won't be the best template around and any PvP I do use with that character for I'll get destroyed pretty easily. I just want to use a heavy duty weapon (if you can call some of the weapons Heavy Duty that is) with an innate AoE and innate DOT for the "HS" (HOLY *#$%!) factor when used with Last ditch. It's just a build that would be for fun and not neccesarily any good.
Do some PvP and AoE like 6 people in front of you with Last Ditch with the thing just as you bite the big one. (If I'm lucky enough that it hits)

Beam Weapons IV:
You get precisely what you're looking for, the Lightning Beam Cannon. It's a Cl50 40 m ranged DoT inducing weapon, and can be made fairly powerful and with AoE (albeit not the best because it's 40 m ranged).

After reading this post, Garvin's post, Ryubushi's post, fenrir's old post and just thinking about buzzbot, I am now convinced that all Valcynites are completely bonkers. HELL YEA BABY!
