Commando Archive

What is a good build for a solo commando, focusing on PvE?

I think Medic First Aid2 to stop bleedings, and Pharmacology3 to use stim-c's is a good start.
I think Scout exploration to give speed in terrain and the basic camp to heal up is almost a requirement.

Then maybe toss in some pistoleer for some moves, or smuggler for the dirty fighting line with a launcher pistol?

Even better question, is a solo commando viable in PvE?

Thanks

Get a rancor to hide behind as you tremble trying to hit the mighty chuba with your gimpy flamer.

You pretty much have to solo. I get tired of people complaining when I use the lagster pistol and they get a nice slide show on their screen.

In order for you to survive as a Solo Commando you need to be able to deal with enemies up close and personal.

Thus, TK/Medic/Commando or Pistoleer/Medic/Commando or any combination of a close range combatant and Commando would be fine. (Because you won't be relying on your Commando abilities for awhile.) Medic wouldn't be too bad, or a Scout so you can make Camps and heal.

Heck, if you REALLY wanted to go Solo, include some CH in that skill line so you can have a meat shield pet to take the hits for you.
