Ok for a long time now I was TKM/Swordsman... but I have always wanted to be a Master commando... so last night I got all of Marksman grinded out (expect for the master box)... just on the verge of going novice....


My problems is now... which alt-combat profession should I hold on too.... TKM or Swordsman?



I should note that I'm only a PVE player...


I like both melle profs the same, the only major difference I can see is that, I find TKM great for everyday mission grinding... but Swordsman better for higher end mobs and loot runs.....


PVP is too much of a pissing contest to get into..



BTW... i picked me up a SWEET FT last night (well I like it anyway lol) .... its loot made with 980+ damage and the speed was alot lower then a standard one.. can't recall the numbers atm... now I all I need is a 35% damage slice I should be in for a good grind

Tkm because it has better defense and you need that as a commando also it costs 14less sp that can be spent elsewere you can solo high content with commando tkm anyway because you just shoot a flame dot and switch to tkm. well thats my 2credits

TKM also has secondary skills like meditate, powerboost and force-of-will that are very hand and unmatched by any other profession.

Im gonna say sowrdsman just to be difrent and to reiterate the fact that just cause comando requires unarmed 4 doesent mean you automatically have to go TKM.

I would say TKM. It has Meditate, which is always great, some defenses that Commando definitely needs, and it takes up less skill points. That's just my opinion though.

I wouldkeep TKM, then you can plug the other 18 points that are left over into something else, like medic or some pistoleer for more defenses.

If you're attached to the ability to effectively target the mind, you may also consider Master Commando / Master Rifles (you've got rifles 4 from mastering Marksman already).


That's what I currently am, and it's devastating in PvE. You are well-equipped for any job.

as much as i love rifleman/commando with that you have little defense and flames dont help much for mind... honestly master commando/rifleman is no better then just a plain rifleman as sad as it is

I want to have some melee, as I feel it comes in handy... still weighing things out... i love TKM for the Meditation and the quick one on one kills.... but do find swords more a heavy hitter when it comes to taking down large NPCs.. swords was my tank...


Will Master Commando be a good tank??

You are kidding right?

Commandoes are probably the WORST proffession to tank with.
