Thread: The ever-present template question

Current template: Master Commando/Master Carbineer/Novice smuggler/0040 medic


I'm thinkin about changing to: Master Commando/Master Carbineer/0210 Smuggler/0003 Pistoleer to pick up a root and so I can help on base takedowns with the smuggler and commando parts. But from what I've heard it's pretty tough to survive against anything without healing... so my question is, should I swap? Is it worth losing the heal? Will I be steamrollered by everything (worse then I already am? )


Thanks in advance

as to all of the specials that template gives, i'm not clear. maybe instead of putting healing in your template, you just need a friend that is a healer.


how is your healing now, and do you use BE'd clothing?

No BE'd clothing, novice smuggler gives concussion shot ( a mez) and 0003 pistoleer would give imp. stopping shot ( a root). 0210 Smuggler would just be for FD and base slicing.

Hiya, D'orn



Well, I am actually considering completely changing to a former profession that I loved as much as TKM - - - -> Commando



with your template Idea and mine...we could take down a base by ourselves (MBH/MCommando...drat wait I forgot SL )


Of course I'll have no healing ability whatsoever, so I'll be relying on Doc's/CM's/Jedi in a group (or Melee'ers to keep the MOB's off me in the first place) and I will require the Melee Defense and Stims to help me hold fast against a Jedi while I pound him with the PFT


I do see what you are saying about getting steamrolled, but ifyou have a CM or Docin the groupyou would prolly be ok...basically your current temp is great in PvP...the new template would be great in a large scale PVE battle where you dont need to go toe to toe with anything for long if at all and definitely a boost to a base takedown....but I gotta beleive you are kinda slow with the ranged speed, no?

I am about to finish up changing from full melee back to commando. My final template will be MCom/MPist/0040 smug/0200 medic and some FS. This template is a lot of fun so far and could easily be adjusted to give you the smuggler skills needed for base slicing. Of course, the thing that carbs gives you, a big damage special, is absent here. You have to make up for it by having very nice weapons. It does have plenty of healing and tons of crowd control, though. I love using intimidate and stopping shot with an aoe commando weapon

Wow, not only two on the same server, but two in the same guild



My PFT has a decent speed... Tapes wise I have like +20 worth in HW Speed CA/AAs... just can't decide what to put them in

I like my alts template of:

Mcommando/Msmuggler/0003pistoleer/0420medic

Its great for support and even has an area heal. not a big one but it matters when you use it. and you have decent attacks of body hit and advanced reckless shot. with a proton rifle or a plasma flame thrower both are great dmg dealing. Not to mention you have the 45 second concussion shot and all the other great specials of smuggler AND recon armor which is great since most pvp is jedi bases [energy].

Great template imho.
