Synopsis:


First off, this is a support role template. My main focus would be base raiding and PVE or large scale PVP for fun. It is ideally a jack of all trades: good crowd control, some area damage and good ranged healing.


The Template:


Master Commando (loving it so far), Master Smuggler, Combat Medic 4xxx


The Pros:


- Crowd control with an area root of improved suppression shot (40 second duration root)


- Strong group healing with Adv Bacta Spray and Adv Bacta Toss


- Commando weapons are only going to get better with time (I have faith we'll get our fixes soon)


- Misc skills like feign death for AoE gone wrong, slicing, and can craft spices for group


The Cons:


- No attack specials what-so-ever...must rely on Heavy Weapons dmg


- Commando weapons are under-developed


- Few choices if you dont want an AoE for areas like dungeons ect.


So this is what Ill probly end up with, please share your thoughts. I was also considering some pistoleer or squad leader but id have to drop some of this due to skill points. I will be playing on Ahazi if anyone would like to group with a support template.

Great, curious to see if the healing can help offset the low defenses with such a build. Of course seeing as you're taking up the two best ways to get a lot of aggro (CM healing and MCommando AOE)I'd expect you'll be using FD a lot.

Personally, I wouldnt use that template. Post-CU you really need to stack either all melee or all ranged if you want to PVP (since you want BH terms I assume your going PVP vs jedi) because you end up lacking in certain bonuses or defences.


You wont be dealing enough damage to take out a Jedi and with no root he's going to be on you like white on rice. Another must for PVP is the ability to constantly heal yourself, you may do more dmg then the other toon, but if they can heal frequently youll eventually lose. I learned this first hand with my Pikeman and had to take up 4xxx doc.
