Jerele it is worth it yes and no. Of course the upside is capping combat xp about 2-3 times a buff, but the downside is armor. If you do not wear it you will incap yourself leaving you open to a deathblow from creatures. And if you wear it, youwill have to buy a new set of Armor every Branch or so. I had Commando 4/0/0/0 for about 1 day, I threw 11 grenades and dropped it. I found it boring and thought about the creditsIwouldhave spent in the long run. So, instead I will do it the old fashion, and long way, two master combat professions. So, it's really up to you, spend money on nades, buffs, and armor. Or just use your two Combat profs and only worry about buffs and very little about Armor!

4xxx gets you the ability to throw most of the types of grenades - just not the proton grenades which are most powerful but require master.
Imperial detonators or Thermal detonators are most popular as they do the most damage.
I.D do about 2000 damage, have a 4m radius (so you have to be really close to the lair).
T.D do about 1800 damage, but they are medium armor piercing so you get a bonus. I often saw mine hit for 3500 damage. They also generally have 7.0 radius.
Remember that you do have to throw the grenades at the lair - the animals will all attack you so you have to be within the blast radius (hence the warning by post above). I went through 1 set of compo only, but I repaired it 3 times. Maybe I was just lucky that it did not fall apart sooner than that. I used 99.99% repair tools I found on the server - well worth the 5k per crate I paid.
FYI the other 3 trees of commando are for heavy weapons, Flamethrower/rocket launcher/acid rifle etc.

Money is no problem, grendade seem the fastest. I need 21.6 Million Combat xp using grenade, or get 108,000,000 Weapon XP and the 10% combat makes it 7.2 million FS xp. I basically need to cap COmbat xp 70 more times. That only 24 Buff sessions. Ill probaly do Grenade, grind it for 1-2 weeks to get the XP needed, then pick up my template again.

My template is Master Rifleman, Master Swordsman, and medic. If I pick up Commando I would need to drop Master Swordman and pick up Master Marksman (4 time rofl) and do the Unarmed grind. If it worth it?
