I see the new combat rateing system,and I see my Master doc/Master bio-eng. has 2 points less than i do?


Im a master Commando(old school) have master marksman as well,i dont see how a non combat class can have the same combat score as me?

I allso see my wepons have all been way down powerd..(my bowcaster rocks though)..


Im just woundering if being a straight commando is even worth it any more,ive got a ton of wepons wich blows if i change classes.

I have a free respec so i can redo my self if needed.

Most of the weapons that got converted via the CU were made "basic" models, so Id go shop for new weapons for one. Since Commando has no specials, you will need to get them from a supporting career, so maybe Carbineer, Rifles or Pistols. All have their own advantages.


Master Marksmann gives few "combat level points" and to be honest you spoil many good skillpoints be keeping it. I would slowly migrate those skillspoints into maybe helaing or another ranged career.


Drop Commando? Well lets not get carried away here hehe j/k, but there are many nice Commando templates, Id advice you to scan through this forum and look foor good combos.


Commando/Rifles is nice for PvP you might want to get Pistoleer as it has some nice specials such as the stopping shot.

Definately check out this thread

The new commando guide isn't fully finished yet, but if you follow some of the template threads and a lot of my posts, as well as others here (Rankorcity, Ryubushi, Theosar, Reydon, Joken, others ) theres quite a wealth of information on templates.

As for going solely commando...very bad idea, I'd recomend dropping to your pre-reqs (UA IV/Ranged Support IV - we dont need Master Marksman), and going into a ranged template. We're good in a ranged tempalte despite grenades/AoE problems, but we're horrible by ourselves or in a melee-commando template when you look at our role (damage...we just can't do it without another ranged profession supplying better specials)

If you still have blowing stuff up, and don't mind the problems we have at the moment...I'm sure its worth it still

With the proper supplies and template, you'll be able to do just that . If you get into a template which we can actually do damage, you'll be drawing most of the aggro via the hate system, toss in some good defenses and Stims/Ruby Bliel, and you're golden.
