Well nothing good for starters..ever since nerf happened you pretty much use your pets as toilet paper because that is all they are really good for and it has been stated that they said they will never fix ch back. So that is why I am finally dropping my MCH clear back before this year I am tired of just getting beaten around by the devs and with no hope of fixing ever coming so later everyone...thanks soe for making another MCH drop the profession.

Alot of professions are just screwed till the revamp. Buffs and armor are so good. That they put players in god mode. Passive defenses on some professions are so high that attacking them is pointless, and with the buffs they can special at nauseam.
That is why ch feals so dang weak. Infact most everyone is increadibly weak compared to the few uber classes. TKA combat medic riflemen. TKAs just dodge you forever so the chances of takeing them down ranged is near pointless. The combat medics hit you will a poison so strong that all they need do then is run. Wait for the 400 point plummets to lay you fallow. Riflemen just slice through armor, and get a huge chip out of your mind when you hit. Which works well for them because mindbuffs even with brandy rarely go over four hundred. Even with muon on that you still cannot crack a couple thousand.
So until the rebalance pvp is dead to all but those guys. Look on the brightside after the pvp the only thing left is pve and ch works very well at that.
Actually TKA's by itself is not that UBER, my alt is a TKM/M Fencer but before he became a fencer also he was getting hit alot. It is just like any other profession, IF you want you find another elite profession that compliments your firsst one. In the case of TKM the obvious choice is M Fencer... it was alot worse before they implimented def caps to +120. But that is what is nice about the game... you can mix and match professions to either become ajack of all trades or master of one really great trade.
But with that said, my CH/Pistoleer character has no trouble going out and hunting almost exactly the same creatures as my TKM/M Fencer does... might take a bit longer but then I enjoy playing CH much more then playing TK right now.
