Im a BH/Rifleman, and hunt jedi only.
I have been thinking about dropping rifleman for commando, but I still have some questions about commando, maybe you can help.
As you might know the jedi's have a very strong sabreblock against ranged attacks, master sabre block 85% of all shots.
This block is so strong that many BH has been forced to choose melee professions, but I dont like swords and pikes and stuff, I want big guns!
So my question is: Are the commando weapons doing melee damage? and will it stay like that, or will the dev's change this later?
Do jedi block flamer, acid rifle, rocket launcher now?
I also read that the FS +12 melee speed works for your weapons, that is strange, but very interesting.
Any reply is welcome

well our weapons can be blocked by the jedi same as everyone else with one exception. Jedi can't seem to block grenades, but grenades are pretty slow. I have some thermals 3.5 spd 1100-2800 dam can'r remeber the AP 2 I think. grenades miss alot and they will damage you if you are in their blast radius. I have started getting thrown weapon acc tapes and they seem to make alot of difference.

I really suggest drop the idea of going commando, and go carbineer with the full bh carbines tree, your accuracy is so and speed is so high that even if you put in saber block in, you hit alot still.

Here is something weird i noticed the other night, i was dueling a jedi friend who recently got master saber. First it was Melee duels, i was using TKA skills, and nearly took him down.
Then i asked if he knew how Saberblock worked against a Flamethrower, well he didnt i didnt so we decided to try. Im 0-0-4-0 Commando BTW with ranged acc 2 from the FS skills(dont know if it works),
So i was about 12m from him, kneeled, used /aim two times and hit with a flamesingle2, then /aim /aim again and hit with a cone, then /aim /aim and hit with another Flamesingle2.
I tried about 12 shots at hit, and none of them vere blocked, might just have been luck, but those Flamesingle2's and the fire DOT were doing nice amounts of damage to him.
SO i dont know, it might be that i got lucky when i manage to get them passed his M.LS block, or it might be that the devs changed something.
