Commando Archive

Master Pistoleer, Master Smuggler, 1400 Commando and rising fast.

I likes my big booms.

Have done:

Master Pistols/Master Commando/4000 Combat Medic

Master Smuggler/Master Commando/4000 Combat Medic

Master Bounty Hunter/Master Commando/Novice CM

Master Rifleman/Master Commando/4000 Combat Medic

Master Smuggler/Master Commando/4004 Pistols/Novice Medic

Just about every ranged combo except Carbineer

pvp wise, what worked best do you think?.......without getting into personal gaming skill and what-not

Don't bother with 0010 medic...0010 is better as the skill is something you can use.

Master Commando/Master Carbs/ xx33 Pistoleer / and ranged acc, ranged speed FS

I've just been looking into this myself..

In the past few weeks i've gone thru more template changes than I thought humanly possible, from MSmuggler to MCH,.. anyway, I used to be MSmuggler/Mcommando with some pistol skills, i dropped the pistol skills for some medic for endurance, but found that I just didnt hit hard enough anymore and ended up changing template entirely,.

Now, Im looking at going back to Commando, and I've checked out the following template changes.. heres the data


Commando xx4x
Squad Leader x4x4
Pistols 44x3
CM 4xxx

Stats..

General Ranged Accuracy = 125
Pistol Accuracy = 40

Total = 165

Ranged Defence = 140
Pistol Defence = 30

Total = 170 (ranged and melee)

Ranged Speed = 35
Pistold Speed = 45

Total = 80

Pros/Cons:

Fun Bonus
Flame Thrower
Group Bonuses
0 SP remaining

I didnt include heavy weapon speed/def etc because they are negligable.
This template allows me to really help the group out, allows me to AoE Improved Stopping shot, Warning Shot, etc etc.

Master Squad Leader
Master Pistoleer
CM 4xxx

Stats..

General Ranged Accuracy = 135
Pistol Accuracy = 40

Total = 175

Ranged Defence = 160
Pistol Defence = 50

Total = 210 Ranged/205 melee

Ranged Speed = 40
Pistold Speed = 45

Total = 85

Pros/Cons:

MAJOR Group bonuses
3 SP Remaining
Lacking a little in fun factor
Intimidator Pistol

This template helps out a lot in groups, has a good accuracy mod, but lacks personal defence. added bonus is the mix of Action and Mind costs, extending the life of your HAM

Master Commando
CM 4xxx

My Personal Favourite

Stats..

General Ranged Accuracy = 170
Pistol Accuracy = 40
Heavy Weapon Accuracy = 55

Total = 210(with Pistol) 225(with Heavy weap)

Ranged Defence = 150
Pistol Defence = 50
Heavy Weapon Defence = 50

Total = 200/200

Ranged Speed = 45
Pistol Speed = 45
Heavy Weapon Speed = 45

Total = 90/90

Pros/Cons

MAJOR Fun Bonus
Flamer
3 SP Remaining

I Like this template, I would however like to have been able to add Squad Leader Rally/volley fire and the built in acc/def bonuses for the group.. but i guess we'd ALL like more SP eh?!

So, what do you guys think?? What should be my template? any suggested modifications?

I've found Longevity to be very important, hence i stuck Combat Medic healing branch 4xxx with all the templates i listed above. Rifleman means you can hit hard, but lacks and Crowd Control abilites that i find essential in counteracting PVPers mods and when you get into a fight you cant get out off.. some disarming shots and advanced Stopping shots can be a life saver when /burstrunning the hell outta there

M Commando

M Smuggler

Combat Medic 4000

M. Commando
M. Carbineer
Pistoleer x3x4
Novice Smuggler

(Yea I got no healing skills but Stim D, but this matters not much since I got a doctor running next to me all time.)

Although I don't consider this a viable PvP template (and numerous Jedi whom have killed me will agree), I have fun playing this:

MBH/MCommando/FS skills.

To maximize my stats, I plan (grinding through the village now) on the following:

Enhanced Reflexes:
Vehicle Control 4
Ranged Defense 4
Melee Defense 4

Heightened Senses:
Luck 4 (Because I'd like to be lucky.)
Persuasion 4

Combat Prowess:
Ranged Accuracy 4
Ranged Speed 4

Yes, that is 7 trees. I don't care. 7*4 is 28 SP, and I can fit them in. Do I want to wield a glowstick? Maybe someday; or else I'll be the rare Jedi that turns and caps you with a flamethrower.Comments welcome.
