I wouldn't, to be halfway effective, you have to spend a fortune on weapons.
Ermm actually you can at least on bria get some really decent 1000+ damage flamethrowers for 30k a pop. The SAC is a tad high. And once i get the proper materials i'm going to bugger around with PFTs abit to see if I cant craft a better one. Hard thing to do though when i'm only a 10pt WS ![]()
Anyway. I've found MCom very good in PvP when mixed with the right profession for your style of play. ESPECIALLY when it comes to rooting. Nothing like taking your flamethower out in close quarters combat in a base or something and rooting 8+ guys all in one shot. ANd then merrily grenading the crap out of them with an assortment of explosive delights.
If anything I've found that all the grenades I use in PvP are the big money sucker. Generally when I'm out PvPing i can easily count on sucking up about 5+ stacks of protons and thermals. mabye 3 stacks of glops and cryobans. And well sort of up and down on the imperial detonators.
But certainly I've never regretted PvPing with commando and tossing nades in PVP. Especailly when I get 3-4 incap messages scrolling on my screen when I toss a proton at a night tight grouping of wounded imperials.
Is it as effective as other templates? Probably not. But it's a whole hell of alot of fun ![]()

Ive been Master Commando for a while now, i really like it even though it has so many bugs so its not the best for PvE. Is it any good for PvP? Reason i ask is im trying to get a little more involved in PvP on my server.
I pvp on Starsider often myself. Haven't had the resources to attain a wide variety of grenades but the flame dot tickin for almost 400 a tick on a full group of adversaries is rather effective as well as rooting the entire bunch of em. AoE effects is amazing in pvp, now if they can get the damage down too it'll be excellent. My only complaint is the Assault armor certs. They don't be terribly useful in most pvp and technically a commando should be certed for all armor.
