I know you guys might be biased but I am really trying to make the decision between respecing to either commando or bounty hunter. The reasons are that I want to use ranged weapons because if feel the CU weakened swordsman. Even if it had not I always wanted to use energy weapons it was just out of my desire to solo and bugs that I did not.


Away the other reason is that I am also a Master CH which I love and do not want to change. So with that class I have access to battle armor but as far as I can tell BH and commando are the only energy weapon skill classes that let me use assault armor. Which I also want to be able to use.


So if anyone could give me advice on which one would be better to use with CH, I would really appreciate the input.

I don't really know what to tell you, I'm afraid.


I've been a master commando now for about 18 months, I think it is, and I love the profession. I enjoy it, and wouldn't drop it for anything.


I will be honest, though, and say I have picked up MBH since the CU to complement Master Commando, and MBH is pretty sweet right now. Duelist stance, underhand shot, and advanced critical shot are my new friends.

***Eclipse - Ryushidosha, freelancer; Scaley Master Carbineer, ranger, merc for hire, and general sociopath...that despises the NGE.
***StarSider - Ja'ahn Woo [PYRO] of the Alliance - The Galaxy's first Jawa commando/carbineer...who also hates the NGE.

People like me...because I force them to...with violence!

I agree acutally to the above statement.. "Both"



Hehe..



My current setup is:


Master Commando, Master Bounty Hunter, and Rifles 0.0.0.4 (for speed)


Gives good specials from BH to power the Commando weapons, and lots of defences and weapon speed/accuracy


I dropped all force sensitive skills.. (*cries hours of grinding down the drain*) but more speed for my Proton rifle when and if I get one hehe

Yes the combo does work very well, however if you PvP, you need to be creative against certain melee templates, as they can do some serious damage if you're not careful. I've been torn between that and Commando/Carbineer. They are very similar in alot of ways, but there's more control with carbineer, and I find it to be more balanced, but I'm still not finished testing it.

Commando & Carbineer is a nice template aswell, this was my favoritte on TC3, and also what I wanted to get right after CU was implemented..



However I considered the speed, acuccuracy, defences and specials (powerfull) to be more important that the cool state effects the Carbineer has.. But I do see the weakness I can encounter vs say a master pistoleer, smuggler..


But yes, Carbineer is a nice and effective support career.

I hate to be the bringin of bad news, but the proton rifle works off of Hvy wpn mods...not rifleman mods. At least it did in the las days of the TC.You may very well ahve dropped all that for nothing.

I really appreciate all your posts they have been vary helpful in giving me reasons to pick one of the two classes. I still have not decided but this gives me more to think about.


Anyone else who has a comment please post it. I am still reading them and I am sure others are to.


Thx again Sipra
