I'm switching from master doc/ swordsman to something more defensive. I'm going TKA master for sure but I'm really struggling to decide if I should combine it with Fencer defenses for added help with the exit quest and the tougher phase mobs or if I should go Commando 3xxx for grenade grinding.
Although honestly I'm not sure I even understand the premise of grenade grinding all the way. When attacking a nest after a few attacks when the oocupants spawn and attack you, do you also use grenades on them or just kill them and only use nades on the nest?
One one hand I'm afraid of the frustration I currently experience from having practically no defense to the frustration I might experiece grinding forever for force XP. I don't want to try and re-invent the wheel or be exotic. I just want to be able to do my quests solo if need be and not take from now until my 80th birthday just unlocking my boxes. Which by the way will be melee accuracy, melee speed, melee defense, ranged defense, vehicle control and surivival. I hope I made good choices.

TKM, Commando 4000, some Medic and at least 1000 Scout should work nicely. Take whichever FS boxes you have the points for right away, hold off if you'd prefer to keep your current template to the end of the FS grind (take the points from the Commando you'll be dropping once you're done).

I suggest Master Commando. Reason being is you get Proton Certification....let me add here.....powered up Proton Grenades can take out all the Creature's aggro'd on you in 4 throw's (I.E Giant Bas Nitch's) and the blast range is quite a bit better. So instead of needing to by X number of crates for X type of Grenade you grind faster and need to do less shopping. Find a Weaponsmith and work out a deal. I can cap my combat exp (300k) in 20 min if I am in a big group.

i would advise anyone to take commando grenades as it speeds things up imensley leaving you to actually enjoy the game with ya mates.

IMHO....
4000 commando
4000 tk
0400 doctor
This will let you gain xp in every one but the crafting branches.
Use the commando 4000 to throw IMPERIAL DETANTORS. with pups they will hit for minimum 3k dmg a throw.
use doctor to make rez kits and find a death bit (soemone who u can kill over and over and keep rezzing the to max out doctor xp in 8 mins)
use 4000 to meditate away wound (and u get a lot from nades)
and u will have enough for the 24 sp needed for your skills

master commando seems like a heck of a grind for people like me. i don't have a lot of time to play and i'm trying to finish my xp before revamp. With 4 x x x i can get 400k or more fs xp per buff as opposed to the time i'd have to take away from fs grinding (as much as a week for me) to master commando. It seems like a good idea if you have the time to spare.
I definitely recommend teaming up with a WS and even providing the resources if you can. I'm getting a great deal from a WS on Lowca for Imp. Detonators that works out in both of our favors. He sells the detonators quickly and can put his resources to other uses and I get my detonators at almost half the price i'd have to pay otherwise.
