Don't get as much time to play anymore so i'm giving up my crafting and going all out combat (with a little scout & novice medic). But after reading through the forum all i can find is people complaining about the commando profession which was my first choice
. So can someone restore my will to become a commando before i change my mind.

Ok so i get to char things to a crisp, i can't sat that doesn't appeal to me
But is there a good reason not to just go 0040 get the flamethrower and spend the other SP elsewhere?

Right now, there isn't much difference between 0040 commando and master commando, because the other 3 trees are barely used (cept for nades, but thats for fs monkies).

Maybe the potential for destruction that the commando holds (when it is fixed )
)

If you are the kind of person who thinks mass destruction with flames, grenades, and rockets is fun, this profession is for you. Once the CURB hits, many of the problems you see people complaining about will be gone.

Who the heck complains about us?? PETA??
Bah, whoever complains about commandos being too strong or whining about us don't know what they're talking about. Its in fact the other way around, WE'RE complaining about FS grinders that take up 4000 and just abuse our profession for an easier FS Grind. Its annoying, we hate it...we complain about it. The only others that complain are the whiners who want to nerf our grenades (hey they're useable, not viable...and you want to NERF them even more??) to stop the FS grinders...
Anyways rant mode -off-.
With commando...pls keep these in mind if you wish to join our ranks:
-We're not the best PvPing profession...probably one of the worsts in terms of DPS/accuracy
-We used to be one of the king's of PvE....swordsmen and riflemen are that now
-If you don't take up TKA defenses or another prof, prepare to die...a lot...all the time
-Only one viable weapon - the Flamethrower (15 second base special delay, no AP, below average accuracy...and 2.5X to Hit modifier when our specials can only be used in MELEE range!!)
-We recieve an A+ In terms of graphics...and a D- in terms of usefulness...

I have a feeling when the CU hits commando's will once again prevail. I mean we are called "commandos" afterall.

Hopefully we'll get WAY more defenses, like up to par with pistoleer, cause my other job (master smuggler) doesn't allow me to take on much else in terms of defenses.

Yes, it's one of the weapons we get cert for at Novice I believe...I've been a commando now for roughly almost 2 years, and I can safely say the only time I've ever used anything else besides my flamethrower was when I would go on ER hunts on Dath, and even then I'd flame, then switch to the HAR.
