Hello. I'm a noob to Pikeman, been working on it for about two weeks, currently at 4-4-3-3. I'm concerned about a secondary profession for PvP (earning one, that is).
I started CH, but I don't know if I want to master it or not. Since Pikemen act as fairly effective tanks, I don't know what good pets may do (and I am a MCH on another server, have been for months, so I know a bit about CH).
What do some of you have as secondary combat professions, and why?

dump ch..you're your own tank....swordsman isnt necessary since pike is good at pve(except maybe elders..unless you got energy lance)and getting swords would mean pike goes to waste since its a bit better a pve...fencer is good for pvp...so is rifleman
its late..thats all i got.

My template is:
MPike
Fencer 4400
Doc 4030
So .. I'm a PvP player obviously ... and please don't think I'm a Dot l33t freak ... I was MPike long before the first dot lance was looted ... Pikeman is my profession, I'm only dabbling whatever can help me to be effective in PvP ..
MPike -> Because I can't drop it =P I love it
Fencer 4400 -> To get some ranged/melee/KD/PostureDown Def
Doc 4030 -> To be able to heal the *(%&/*")%&(*$_"%&*"/$(&
(*/&$*?/*(%)*("&$(/*"&_()%&(*"/&$%/"&$*(/&"*(% Dots 
(*/&$*?/*(%)*("&$(/*"&_()%&(*"/&$%/"&$*(/&"*(% Dots It's an effective PvP template ... the only thing you'll fear are the rifleman .. but you can always hide in buildings =)

I've been adjusting mine a bit, now it's master pike, master swords, master brawler, medic 1100 and scout 3000 for the terrain negotiation and harvesting.
I like the variation of weapons that can take on just about any PVE enemy in the game with blast, energy (NSEL!) and electricity.

Personally I am going to try for master pikeman/master Ranger and see how many points I have left over. Does anyone have a link for that skill tree website? wondering how many points I have left after that.

you dont need to master fencer, fencer 4440 has all the stuff you want, save the other points for something else, maybe novice medic /shrug
actually get some of the tk combat line stuff (melee/ranged def) or possibly the meditate line (med off wounds and powerboost)
unless of course you want to use a stun baton, in which case go for the fencer
hope that helps

Ixiss, I'm also going Pike/Ranger, and you will have 18 leftover points.

i keep getting bored of diffrent templates, but the current one im nearly at (havnt finnished swordman yet) is
master pikeman
master swordman
master brawler
4003 TKA
0000 medic
with this i havnt lost in 1 on 1 pvp yet, i also have quite good defences, and to manage with the no terrain neg, i just use an LVA with +25 terrain neg.
master brawler is a must thou, with the extra speed and accuracy and intimidation 2
