Thread: Advice required: The Commando in a Supportive Role
in pvp I think commando would be great with some smuggler and/or pistoleer.
using imp. disarming shot, on of the KD's, blinding shot, intimidating shot and so many other with a AOE weapon makes me drool
hmm tho that would make me rather easy killable..
I was thinking Commando/cmc or Commando/doctor
or perhaps some Squadleader
differnet kind of support 
and you can still try to squeeze medic or cm in there if you go smuggler/pistols..
SL support is added defense and accuracy, burstrun, concentrating fire by "painting" targets with volley fire
pist/smug/commando will be support in the sense of stating/rooting/snaring your opponents.
a commandcan do this best imo as he has AOE weapons and can have high elemental damage. (in fact I'd use weapons made for max speed and elemental for this). all the stating specials have a very very low damage mod, but that does not influence the elemtal damage.
and just imagine, intimidate shotting a group of 5 people, effectively cutting ALL FIVE people's damage by 20%, rooting them with stopping shot while blinding them at the same time etc...
oh I wanted to add that if you do group pvp, and you work together well, not everyone will need to have 4000 CM, use stmi D's for emergency (maybe with medic 0040 or a lil mse medic droid), rely on your teammates for the rest of the healing...
if you have 5 people staying close, using bacta spray for healing you wont have any issues not having decent healing yourself
