since most sabre's cant keep up with weapon damage, i was thinking of doing a hybrid profession, replacing the lightsaber with a ranged weapon since they are doing at least double whata sabre is doing.
anyone have any ideas on a hybrid template?
i am currently MBH, 0420 saber, 0040 defender, and 1000 healer. still messing around with a few things but, it seems to work ok.
In loving memory of TIGGS. God Bless, and Good Luck!

Can't use force moves with reguler weapons out.
Besides, why go MBH and LS?

They are making it to where, you wont be able to use ANY Jedi abillities without a Lightsaber equiped. Meaning Force Speed/Force heal wont work without LS.

as a jedi...
I think youd be better off with master powers than master ranged prof.

sorta, but my current BH weapon does about 1200 damage a shot, and its not the best out there... also, using a ranged/melee weapon doesnt use force while powers do.

Well, go for it.
Whatever temp you'd have most fun with is the one you should go with

Everyone seems to have overlooked a very important issue. Armor.
MBH/MLS/Heal 4000 seems great, but where is your armor coming from? To use ANY Force abilities, including swinging your Lightsaber you cannot wear any armor. That means you're stuck with Jedi innate armor, which would be a grand total of 2000 with that template. You will die in seconds to anyone one of these 2 ways:
a) You take too much damage through only have 2000 armor.
b) You can't heal and have no offense because you have equipped some assault armor.
The other problem with hybrid templates has allready been mention and that is the fact that 90% of Jedi abilities can no longer be used unless you are wielding a Lightsaber or nothing at all.
Hybrids simply do not work any more. The CU and recent changes have lied that to rest.

u could go master enhancer, healer 4/0/0/0 and mbh, with fa2 you'd have around 6000 armour, which matches a master tk, and you can channel back your force when needed, plus you get statis and a self res and force run 3 to catch up to anyone
edit: except yah could only go healer 1/0/0/0 with that template
