Greetings, one and everyone.

I've decided to post this in both the pistoleer and TKA forums, for some combined advice on what I should do here.

I just inherited an alt from a friend who decided not to play SWG anymore.

He's currently a Master Pistoleer, Master TKA, Smuggler 0/0/4/0 (for low blow and last ditch and panic shot), with some medic thrown in.

This is quite a large difference from the Master Rifleman/Master Doctor template I currently have. I'd like as much input as possible regarding use of this template, what specials are good, which aren't, tactics for PvE and PvP, things like that. Thanks!

That is actually a very nice combo from the TKA side. You have really good defenses with what you inherit from pistoleer(melee/ranged defense, ranged mitigation, defense vs.) as well as the smuggler ranged knockdown special which helps tons against kiters.

From a ranged standpoint, its not as good as a rifle user(nothing can be at this point PvP ranged wise), but with a good Geo Stun pistol its not that bad either.

From a TKA standpoint, pistoleer and/or fencer give us the best defensive boosts and that template is definitely built around enhancing TKA.

I personally love the flexibility the template provides. I normally fight TK only, but it is very nice to be able to switch to a pistol and take care of someone from a distance if necessary.

Low Blow is invaluable. It is a ranged KD that comes in very handy, and if you use Panic Shot immediately following the KD, and then peace before the next shot goes off, you can close the distance to any opponent within that 10 second delay window.

On the Pistoleer side Fanshot is nice if you have a good grouping of targets in front of you, but if they are that close they are normally surrounding you, and so your TK spin attacks would be more useful. Stopping shot is useful, but Last Ditch is much better, and with the Master Pistoleer mods you can fire it off pretty fast.

For TK, well, there are quite a few specials that are useful. I us Unarmed Hit and Unarmed Combo most of the time, and then use one of the targeted attacks to finish off the opponent if one pool gets very low. Unarmed KD is very useful also, but I normally KD with Low Blow first and close in.

Note, these are all PvE tips, as I do not PvP much. Hope this helps!

No longer holding out hope, SWG will never be the game we fought so hard for, that we believed so much in. Farewell friends.
