I use rifleman, I find it pretty effective, I'm usually able to get in 2 covered shots and then an adv sniper shot before they even get a hit in on me

Pistolier 4/0/0/4, BH 0/4/3/0. Good variety of specials, good speed, low accuracy but crispic can help there, decent defenses (for a master ranger, anyway). Got a root shot, a KD, a couple good damage shots, a couple debuffing shots. It took a lot of messing around during the 3 week respec to decide what I wanted, but I finally found it. With my uber featherweight FWG5 and improved critical shot, I even outdamage most other party members unless there's a rifleman around.

thats an interesting combo. You do pretty well by yourself against multiple creatures?

I do. Between p-darts (bugged or normal), stopping shot, and underhand shot, I have several means to keep the beasties at bay. Though in all honesty, I rarely find myself against more than one creature at a time. Traps are great for pulling single creatures out of the pack. I can easily wipe out a CL 78-82 mission alone and unarmored, it just takes 15 minutes or so.

Although, good stim d's are handy for those craptastic moments when I miss with stopping shot and my traps fail, and the KD timer isn't up yet. It does happen now and again. That's when you notice that the recharge for stopping shot is painfully sloooooow.

I'm a Master Pistoleer. It isn't much, but I'm happy with it. I can intimidate it, stopping shot it, disarm it, warning shot it, and practically keep it as far from me as possible in terms of hitting me hard, but I have trouble killing most things, heh.

When the CU went live, I was master ranger/master pistolier. I love pistols, but our damage potential plummeted with the CU. Still, they're more fun than anything else I've tried, and if you can score a nice gorax shard or krayt tissue, you can make an excellent pistol that's ADK worthy and can dish out some nice damage. I'm no rifleman, but I can hold my own.

My combat skills are BH 0/4/4/4 and SL 0/4/0/3.

My speed sucks, crispic helps with the accuracy by my defences are pretty good.

I can solo ok as long as I snare the creature with a trap. I use the BH ranged KD to KD a creature then trap it then shoot and run backwards, works quite well.

Awesome heals, no armor needed and fairly good damage (just need to tune a few more good pearls or crystals)

rifleman

It seems to work better for soloing, you can stay out of range of whats attacking better, and do more damage so that it dies faster.
