"No, you would only have a 10m range of where you can do your specials. Not worth it IMHO."



1 special dude. Imp Head Shot (strongest damage for basic specials), and Strafe Shots. Powerful, plus GREAT accuracy.

I was this template for quite a while, it was good fun in PVE but completely useless in PVP... no decent healing.


The lack of heals is notable in PVE, but if you're in a group with a healer, you should do just fine.

KD/startle shot with Rocket Launcher, then use either rifle with sniper shot or commando weapon with head shot.


Great combinations...is it uber PvP, no. BH/Jedi still rule there, but it is a lot of fun.


P.S. Don't listen to the guy about the 10m thing.

Definitely doable but unfortunately there are much better combos in the game then what Rifleman brings to commando T_T

My dudes template is Master commando/Master rifles/4004 pistols, and I find it works very well, even in PvP.

What does it bring to the table, apart from commando goodness?


Well, for crowd control, you have both stopping shot (pistols) and kneecap shot (rifles)

For general damage, you can cycle both headshot and bodyshot at a good rate.

For some really nice front-loaded damage, try sniper shot with a pup'd proton rifle, now THAT hurts.


A regular tactic I use is conceal shots with the proton til they start running towards me, then stopping shot, snipershot, and if they make it in to range, stand up grab your flamer and smack them with cycled head/bodyshot.


A nice tactic in PvP, is to approach a crowd with a acid stream launcher, and from 64 meters hit them with stopping shot. The AoE will root a crowd, AND blind them all.

Same tactic applies with a rocket launcher. Although the damage sucks, you can knock them on there arse and stick them to the ground.


Ditto with grenades and a flamer. Run in, chuck an Imp det, stopping shot headshot/bodyshot. Cooked.


Its very versatile I think, though a weakness can be healing, but meh....use a ruby bliel and some good stims and you're set.

Agreed, note I said that it was "good" not "uber" for PvP.


Of course the best pair up for Commando is smuggler. no doubt there.
