Hi,


Right now I have master commando, some TKA and some scout for harvesting, etc. Anyone out there a commando/rifleman? How about commando/pistols? Just wondering what those templates are like... I have to admit I like the meditate line in TKA a lot...



Thanks,

To be honest, I think that Commando/TKM is a VERY good template.


Example: You intimidate a mob, and warcry him for 10secs, quickly change to flamer, single2, !FIRE! DoT, change back to TKM, and spam Hit 3 on him, with some intimidate It a 100% metode agains Sith Shadow Thugs for example


But rifleman RULES pretty much. Most say its the ultimat ranged PvE profession. And I belive it. Have not tryed it, but see a close friend of mine using it.. UHHHHH!


But I dont think that Commando/Riflemanwill work very well...

I agree that MC/TKM is a really strong combo. Don't think MC/Master Rifle would mix nearly as well. Besides you'll have to kiss goodbye Zenlike meditation focusing on the flaming carcus of your victim.

Hi! Could you please describe "properly" more detail? Maybe a guide? I am actualy considering dropping TKM, after I have seen what a rifleman kan do with an AT-ST and afew Dark Troopers, before they even get to know what hit them.
Still, I stand by what I said, MC and TKM is the perfect match, but its never hurts to try something new

Use flushing shot and flurry shot liberaly, they stun and dizzy, then throw in some suppresion fire. once they kneel, hit them with HPBC then rush up and flamesingle 2 them. warcry them, then back off switch to rifles, start head shotting them, the fire gives them bf, which makes them less accurate, and lowers there defenses even more, stack MS1 and MS2, then start headshotting them. stun and sizzy them reapeatedly. what this does is it makes them heal a lot, from the HPBC and the fire. when they are healing, they can't shoot at you.


In a big battle there is usually a doc that buffs people that have died, find them, when they start to buff a jedui, spam rockets at the doc, the blast murders jedi. Flamethrowers hurt jedi bad, wait until they are KD, take a knee, then start spraying them with fire, as soon as you set them on fire, warcry them and peace, let the dot tick a lot of times, that is enough to incap them.

Yea you can, Intimidate and warcry can be used with any weapon equiped, or none at all.

Yes, but in another thread, I described that once I switch to a commando weapon, mobs hit me for 700 damage and more in one shoot/hit. So I would rather have them unable to shoot at me, in that moment of weaknes when I have the flamer on.

You could warcry first as another option, intim wont break it, then you wont be getting hit with the flamer out

I'm a MC / TKM. Whenever I'm fighting a high level mob, I always go into battle unarmed and without a VK equipped. This way, when you do land a successful warcy on the mob, you can switch to your flamer in half the time.

Oh, and to the original poster, I'd say goMaster Commando andTKM. It's the best PvE template IMO.


If you do go Master Commando and Master Rifleman you'll be the ultimate damage dealer. I was once a Master Rifleman and Master Commando, and I found myself using my rifle skills way more then commando. I think it would be great for PvP, but when you don't have a melee profession, it's hard to solo some high level mobs. If you really want to go rifleman, I would suggest picking up another profession to compliment it.


Commando / Pistols seems like a good combo. Imagine the chaos you can create with a LP using Master Pistoleer specials. You would also have nearly every damage type in the game. It would be great for PvP, and for taking out jedi. You get a stun weapon , and when you see a jedi, you can flame them, and use the LP.
