I am heading toward mastering both CM and Rifleman. I figure I'll recoup a lot of the Terrain Negotiation I lose when I drop scouting. But I figure it'll be worth it in the long run.

Two trees, so 28 points? 4004. Speed and accuracy modifiers, an OK AOE, mindshot2.

I think I'd go for 1.0.3.4. You get mindshot2, FLUSHING SHOT 2 = awesome, and lots of speed.

Anyone else have some input?

You'd have to encounter a silent holocron first, methinks.

Its 5 professions. You can get up to 4 hints plus 1 more that you'll never get a hint on.

So one scenario for unlocking:

You master brawler and Fencer. You pop a holo which says "Master Bounty Hunter".

Three months later when you finally train in Master Bounty Hunter, your slot unlocks.

Your five professions were:

Brawler
Fencer
Marksman
Scout
Bounty Hunter

Another scenario:

You feed a brand new character four holos.

Musician (holo 1)
Weaponsmith (holo 2)
Rifleman(holo 3)

Holo 4 says Dancer. While working on Dancer you continue some hunting and finish Master Marksman. Dancer unlocks and Marksman was your fifth hidden profesion.

So yeah, you got one hint and unlocked your slot - but not with less than 5 mastered professions. And never has anyone unlocked on a holo hint without mastering another profession along the way.

It's entirely possible if at the time you opened you last holocron you had more than one profession left to go, and then you mastered other professions before you mastered the profession that the holocron told you to master. If you were todo that, it's possible that thoseextra professions that you mastered were also professions that you needed to master to unlock the slot. And if that were true you could unlock the slot onthe 3rd, 2nd, or even 1st holocron. It's fairly unlikely, but itcould happen. Which means, since there are thousands upon thousands of people playing, it willhappen to somebody.

Well currently this is my professions list in the order which I mastered them:

Marksman

Scout

Pistoleer

Ranger

Creature Handler

Medic

Combat Medic

Doctor

Image Designer

Entertainer

Artisan

Brawler

Teras Kasi Artist (Holo 1)

Working on rifleman (holo 2)

So if I'm reading these posts right, its possible that the professions above could have been my 3rd, 4th or most importantly, even 5th holo profession?

Well bro since no one else is takin on your questions, i will. It's ok to feel hate and discontent at your profession, everyone else does lol. Those 33 points you gotta divvy up by how/what your characters strengths/weaknesses are. In reality, balance is gonna be the underlining factor in my own opinion. I've got the ABSOLUTE worst HAM in the galaxy (Honest) and i fought my way to being a master bh cause i luv this game so much (lemme re-think that lol) . I've got 1/1/0/0 CH, 0/0/1/0 Medic, and Master BH. My HAM stats are : 1k health 1.2k action 1k mind THEY ARE MAXED OUT with all the substats at the lowest except for willpower at 500. I'm a Rodian (unfortunately, /think if i only knew before i started) and i just said screw it and played the character. So, knowing this, i feel no luv towards people who start up the BH line and in the middle of it say "Screw this, it's not worth it, or i can't do it." Anyone can be decent at this profession and enjoy the benifits. It's just like life man, you're only gonna get from it, what u put into it=) Basically i think u really need to come to an agreement with yourself and figure out what kind'a character u truly want to play. Just remember that you've come a long way, mastering almost 3 different professions which one em is fairly difficult to master. This game still has quite a ways to go in it's development, so don't make any rash or quick decisions just yet, u might wish u hadn't just like my buddy who's gotta go through the scouting line AGAIN (camping, ouch) to master ranger lol....

Master BH & some other crap i don't have the skill points to be worth asteaming pile ofterd

youre "effective " by the way you play ,not by how you use the 33 points left .

mbh you love it or hate it imo . there are much better templates then MBH to pvp or pve .

the jedi bountys thing its no worth atm .

so like i say , bounty hunter profession is more of a "love" then of a "kill all " thing.

my 33 points are : novice pistoler (for another heath dot ) , novice carabin (for +speed and specials and elite carabin) ,and rest novice medic and first aid( like to cure my bleeds) .

yes

has any one ever had two elite's from the same basic spoken to you from a holo?

IE you were told to master Wepon smith and Armor smith (two elites out of artisan(basic))

hybrids dont count..... ie BH, comando, squad leader's are all hybrid's (do not count thease to this question)

thanks in advance

im going to be giving up CH soon and want to know if i give up all my CH skills before i sell my pets will they still be transferable(as long as they know the transfer command) to other CH's?
