Thread: Making of a hunter...a question
I think to be CL 80 with Ranger in your template, you're going to need to Master Ranger and another combat profession. Taking down big creatures with that template will be very hard, as you'll need to land a lot of traps. Rifleman snare is very weak, BHs have a KD shot but nothing else to slow them down. I'm Master Ranger/MBH and it works very well for me in PvE, and not bad in PvE. I was practice dueling a Jedi friend and I actually won with that template (noe: he isn'tfully templated.
The problem you're going to run into is that you probably can't be good in PvP and PvE with Ranger in your template. Because to gain PvP skills, you'll have to give up PvE skills and vice versa.

So Master Bounty Hunter on its own stands up as a good combat profession for PvE?

Yes my template is MRanger/MBH/SL 0-3-0-0. This gives you some nice defense bonus from the SL, and MBH is a decent enough PvE template.MRanger has some nice perks that make PvE nice too, such as p-darts, TN, and cammo.It's nice to be able to pull out the quicker pistol when your in close quarters, and the rifle out on the planes and such. Coupled with a trapping droid with combat mods in it it works very nicely
Circe' Pojia I just respec'd to MBH a few days ago, but prior to that I was Master Ranger, Pistolier 4/0/04, BH 0/3/40. Only one mastery, but I was still cl 80.

Call me al. One word of warning, though... during the three week respec I tried a ton of profs, and a lot of hybrid combos. One of them only got me to CL 79. I don't remember which one it was, but I found it very puzzling because it followed the same 'master ranger, two fullbranches in one prof, 1 fullbranch and 1 branch with 3 boxes filled in another' model that I'd used over and over every 12 hours during that period.
