Commando Archive

Hey all.

With teh CU I was planing on adding at least 2 Commando branches to my template (rifle/TK)

I was planning on explosives (for the nades and tns of defense) and incinerations.

For you people who know more about it, is there anything awesome I am shorting myself on taking these two rather than either of the other two?

Thanks for your comments.

(and no, I am not taking any cheesy roots)

I personally think the Heavy Beam Weapon line would be better for your template. You get the HPBC and HLBC that way (and the latter is more powerful than the normal FT you'd get at incendiary box III).

Acid weapons are useful too, if you don't want to have to use a special to apply blind states.

Ok that is something that has confused me and with search down I ahven't found the answer.

Commando wpns apply states automatically now?

Is there a list of what they do?

I assums from your post that acid =blind, I would assume Fire= a dot, Beam?

If anyone has a link please tell me.

Thanks.

Oh, and using the launcher pistol last night was "fun"

CL 14 lol

HAR and ABC - Blind Affect, Not sure how AE works on these exactly, haven't tested 'em much aside from blinding myself with the HAR on TC

Rocket Launcher - KD - 6m radius off target

Flamethrowers and HLBC - Fire DoT; FT fires a cone shot by default while HLBC has an AE that shoots off of your target in a 6m radius

HPBC - Supposed to hit everything in a straight line

Ah nice. The KD sounds like a nice ability to have.

Will have to try them out while respec is available.

Thanks for your help.

Also, do nades have any new state appliers worthwhile now? I read somewhere people were complaining they were only good for PVP now, but the defense skills in that line alone make it a great branch.
