I just had a great time rolling through pikeman. Yes, I'm on the holo hunt, and I for one enjoy the many professions. Well commando is up and I'm not fropping master smuggler. This leave 18 points.

I hunt buffed and do some pvp.

I'm leaning towards pistol for obvious reasons but what else might 18 points but me? Yes, not having scout sucks =]

Any help is appreciated.

If you have smuggler, grab novice commando. The smuggler specials work hella good with the launcher pistol plus the lp is blast damage, which isn't very resisted. That should leave you with 12 more points to use. If you go my route, I'ld recomend grabbing novice pistoleer and the first skill box after which gives accuracy bonuses as commandos get no mods for the lp.

"grab novice commando"

Going to go master commando ASAP.

"The smuggler specials work hella good with the launcher pistol plus the lp is blast damage"

Couldn't agree more. I of course love smuggler. Sure, sure I have to waste a lot of points on Spices but, and I do mean BUT; I regularly sell 35% Damage slices on my vendors at 10x the original weapon price.

"That should leave you with 12 more points to use".

I was hoping for 18 but yes that's reasonable

" If you goagreeoute, I'ld recomend grabbing novice pistoleer and the first skill box after which gives accuracy bonuses as commandos get no mods for the lp."

I had that at oine time, pistoleer 0102<?> but I am not sure that pistol needs the accuracy bonuses for PvE.

Would the Melee defence bonuses from, say, TKA, be better? It appears that until you really get the commando tree down, you are basically gonna have to be in melee.

Thoughts?

Well, until the combat rebalance is finished you'll always have to be in melee range unless using your lp. You're also right, the pistol accuracy doesn't matter that much in pve so getting some tka defense mods would bethe better idea.

WIth master smuggler and master commando, you are left with 18 points to use. The twelve I stated is after you pick up another elite novice box. For some reason I thought you were mastering something else along with smuggler and and asking how far up commando you should go... my bad.
