Go master riflemen with a bit of commando. In all honesty, riflemen are more like what a commando should be anyways. They fire big AP3 weapons that do big damage, and a master level, can shoot at incredibly high rates. I'm dropping master commando to go master rifleman with 0440 commando (possibly 0400 if the 95% dot nerf makes it to live). I'll probably pick up novice scout to go with it. That way, I'll have a character who can shoot fast, shoot hard, and is capable of operating on one's own behind enemy lines. Sounds like a commando to me.

I just saw your thread in the Commando forum before comming here...and they mostly told them to become a rifleman...as I am going to tell you, im nota rifleman, in fact im a 0/0/4/0 Commando...We're getting are only WORKING weapon nerfed that only works in PvE to begin with...Rifleman seems to be what a Commando should be, without the blow-em-up weapon.
Remember, this is comming from a Commando.
Off-topic kinda...but I'm trying to become a rifleman...the trip from Rifles 4 to Novice is a pain in the ASS....any tips on what I should fight? I'm using a laser rifle but have been told to use other things.

Rifleman. Not because im a Rifleman, but because Im a Rifleman that plays with three friends that are Commandos. I can take down any target as fast as them and survive as well as them, but everynight I hear the same complaint from them....I wish I had enough SP to do <fill in a skill here> also. Where I have enough to be a Master Rifleman, Master Smuggler, Survey IV and Medic 3020.
I personnaly see no advantage between Master Commando and Master Rifleman in combat. Commando is way better than Rifleman in the early stages, but as soon as you Master Rifleman, you will see its true power.
SO, IMO, go Rifleman and than you can be as effective in combat and still have alot of SP to play with.
Have you ever seen a Commando drop his Flamer and use Brawler IV???..hehe

Oh..forgot to mention, I can have Novice Pistoleer too for the DX2 cert. Lots of SP left after Master Rifleman.

Creature Handler.
Im currently about 40k xp away from mastering Creature Handler and am currently 0-0-4-0 in Commando and want to drop that as, although I do a LOT of damage, im out of skill points and want to try something else. Ive been toying with the idea of either Rifleman, Pistoleer or Carbineer. So far Rifleman interests me the most, especially as Pistoleer is only really any good if you have the Dirty Fighting line of Smuggler and I wont have enough skill points for that as well!
