Well, after last nights debacle on Dathomir I'm now kissing goodbye to Commando 
Despite devoting masses of skill points to the profession it appears I can't kill anything short of maulers (and only minor ones at that). Rancors eat me for breakfast, even the baby ones chew through me quickly. A quick shot at the NightSisters saw me go down without a scratch on them, no point going to acid as that will do little, grenades will drain me about as quick as they can....at least it allowed me to watch a Master Swordsman (someone who has devoted half the skill points to their chosen proffession than I) tank away on three of them.....
It's a sad day when a profession that is quicker to master andrequires less skill points more than comfortable outguns what is meant to be a/the strongest battlefield profession.
At the moment I can barely make enough cash out the character hunting to replace my degrading armour in time. So, alas, it's time to move on. I guess I'll try melee as that seems to be flavour of the month (which probably means it's next month's nerf).
To add to the joy, my CH skills are down the toilet due to the Patch VI pet AI resulting in them disappearing over the horizon as soon as you say "kill that durni". All in all perhaps it's time to become a Chef. Patch VI couldnt have hit my char harder 
/moanoff.
The only thin silver lining is that I'm maxed out on Commando/Heavy Weapons XP so if they ever go about sorting the proffession, it hopefully shouldn't be too much hassle to come back to it. I enjoyed it briefly at the start when flame did something, and being a Commando felt like you were a strong char, now that our single saving grace is nerfed, there is little else to cling onto.
Au Revoir, and good luck to those who are battling on.
