Thread: DE Template
hi guys. ive wanted to do droid engineering since like 2 years before the game came out. i thought it would be so kewl to make my own droids ya know. but the thing is i also like to fight a lot and shizz. i just wanted to know from you if its possible to do both with this template without being overly gimped in either crafting or combat.
Master
god i hate posting on these forums. anyways the template goes
Master DE, Master Teras Kasi Artist, rifle spec, and advertising 4 from merchant.
thnx 
yeah our posts are way out of sync huh?
i already planned it out after all that and the most i can get is survey 1 which isnt all that great but im rich as hell anyway and can afford to pay for a lot of collectors, so hopefully it isnt all that bad at all.
I may live to regret this, and may change later, but for now I'm:
MDE/Master Weaponsmith/Master Artisian/ low level Merchant.
I make enough money I can shop for resources rather than go harvest them, and I don't have problems (so at least) with mobs. I'll let you know if your curious how this all goes.
Currently I am a CH / Rifleman / Ranger. I was thinking of using my respec to change to DE/Master Artisan and either Rifleman or CH.
Haven't decided yet. CH is fun but after build 17 my pets can't fight worth beans. Pre build 17 I was able to use the pets to get aggro, now I have to take aggro first. Though I can tame up to lvl 22 now and by losing Rifleman my CL would drop to a level that might make a pet more viable. On the other hand. . .
Rifleman is nice. I can use the combat abilities to get me through harvesting of resources. So I don't know.
I think I definitely want to take some sort of Combat profession to augment DE'ing.

Use caution. All of your current profesisons give you CL. By changing as you propose, you will drop from level 80 probably down into your 40's. This means that you will have a lot of trouble even as a Rifleman in a lot of places, anything higher then 50 is really going to smash you. For all intensive purposes, a level 50 has about as much chance against a level 70+ as a level 1 does.
