If your going to mainly use Commando weapons, I would avoid Rifleman. Many of your abilities (Sniper Shot, Conceal, Conceal Shot or whatever its called now) are for long ranges, which many Commando weapons lack. Conceal won't work within about 15-20m of your enemy, Sniper Shot has a minimum range of 20m along with requiring you to be prone. Since a Plasma Flamer is only 25m max range, it doesn't allowyou much leeway.


So really, it comes down to whether you want to do more damage (Carbineer) or whether you want to apply group states using your area weapons (Pistoleer or even Smuggler)

well i have tested out some templets with commando during the revamp and i can help you on this.


Commando/bh have great skills like duelest stance and the damage shop but the plobem that i had with this templet is that all you can where is assult armor which is the weakest agenst jedi. if you are looking for a good pve templet this is it but you will suck in pvp due to you limit to one armor.


smuggler is a heary CC templet but if you want to do more damage i will stay stay away.


IMO pistols is abetter CC templet then sumgglerbecuase you do have some good damage skills like body shot. and no one can't turn down the area root.


carbs is like a mix of pistols and riflemen because you have CC and damage skills but they are not the best one. if you are going carbs, pick up a liltle bit of pistols to get the root and if you have enoth points the intemadate (SP)


most commando seems to go up rifles but i think rifle commando is just over rated becuase most of your skills are ment for long range wepions, and we have only 3 wepions that can go as far as a rifle which are the RL,ASL, and the proton. but the good news with the herp powerful skills can make your less powerful weapions like the ones i said above.


but the chose is up to you i am a commando pistols and it is very good in pvp and i was a commando carbs and loved it but i wanted the root and i won't give up the heals.

i understand how you are saying that we should take armor types into consideration when choosing our template, but what if one of our characters is a wookiee? do the different armor types apply to wookiees?
