Thread: To master Commando, or not to master commando...

Ok guys, I've been playing the game less than a month. Had a hard time deciding what I wanted my first character to be, so as a race I chose Trandoshan. After playing around for a couple of weeks, I finally decided I wanted to Master Pistoleer, and then perhaps Commando. I've been reading the boards here for a few weeks, and am wondering whether or not to master commando, or just stay with my Flamethrower 4(which I freaking love).


I've read a lot of positive posts about adding TK to the template. Now, with absolutely having Master Pistoleer, which would be better for me: Having master Commando and some medic, or Flamethrower 4 and some TK?


As an aside, leveling up Commando is really easy for me. I just found a good Launcher Pistol, used the skills granted to me from Pistoleer(currently 0042) and had a *blast* so to speak. This past weekend I ground out over a million xp finishing up Pistol Techniques, then Flamethrower 3/4. I was amazed at the damage increase with Flamesingle 2, wow!!! Any advice will be welcome, thank you in advance btw!

Besides a +30 accuracy mod to the flamer and skills to use some really expensive weapons, there's nothing to gain from mastering the rest of the profession, currently.

This is the ultimate dabbler profession, simply because the devs made all of the good things in the profession reside in the Flamethrower line.

Well, I don't think any profession will be quite the same after the CB. Once that happens, and we have a few months of tweaking . . We can then see what professions do what.


Just an example: The all too feared TKA (at one time) and us Commandos for one are going to have to figure out how melee mitigation defenses for PvP being dropped completely is going to help/hinder/change how we do things.


(TH mentioned today in the Jedi Punchlist that melee mitigation is being dropped entirely for PvP.)
