Call me blind, but after a week to two of casual lurking I havent been able to find a definitive answer:
1) Double AoE - if you do an AoE attack with the AoE commando weapons do you get double AoE damage (AoE damage from the AoE damage?)
2) The carbineer AoE attacks all seem to require an "automatic weapon." Do PFTs, lightning beam cannons, etc count as automatic weapons?
3) If the carbineer AoE specials don't work with commando weapons, is carbineer still the best choice (rifles aside...tried and hated that). Or is pistol/bh/carbines or a combo the best.
Right now Im novice commando, novice carbineer, 0444 marksman, master combat medic, 4004 doctor. Aiming towards master commando/?.
Thanks,
Tokalar

1. no
2. no
3. mbh is best with commando. mbh specials = uberness when mixed with heavy weapons.

MBH/MCom is a nice combo yes. But it all depends on what you want to do. I know a few Mcoms/coms that are mixed templates. Often digging into CM or doc for healing, and pistoleer or smuggler for the states/mez. There is nothing more annoying in PVP at least. Than some commando going all out AOE with concussion shot or some similar thing. Freezing entire groups of opponents.

I am M Commando M smuggler and I assure you it is very fun to root daze and debuffan entire troop of jedis with my blackscale acid launcher. But then you will face your destiny very quick because you are easely spotted with your PFT on the battlefield !!!

I'm in the process of working my way to a new template that I think will do quite well in PvP... or at least tick a lot of people off. Seems as though it'll be fairly solid in PvE as well.
I had a lot of fun with M. Commando / M. BH / 0004 Pistols, but I figured it's time for something new. Lemme know what you guys think of this.

Master Commando
0434 Smuggler (can even slice n' spice for income)
0004 Pistoleer
0400 Squad Leader
The Skill Mods...
Melee Defense +215
Ranged Defense +195
Heavy Weapon Defense +50
Pistol Defense +30
General Ranged Accuracy +150
Heavy Weapon Accuracy +55
Pistol Accuracy +40

This template will give decent defenses, nice damage output, awesome crowd control, plus it includes 3 of the required professions for a base takedown.
