Okie dokie, first off, which would be better, Master Rifleman or Pistoleer/BH pistol combo?
Right now I'k looking at doing MasterFencer/MasterBrawler/MasterRifleman and 0030 Swordsman.
Any input would be great.

^ Cause folks are competitive and he gets enjoyment out of cracking skulls, not a fault, just a difference in opinion. You "enjoy" a profession for different reasons than him it sounds like. BTW, you enjoy a profession cause you appreciate the animation, you enjoy the rate or methodsin which you kill creatures in PVE, or you just don't like grinding new professions so you condemn anyone else who likes to try out new stuff? If you don't like the post, move on to the next.
I currently have a very similar template to the second you listed . I'd recommend dabbling in tka for powerboost and meditation (meditation tree) or in the defense tree for increased state defenses (balance and conditioning) instead of in swordsmen as dabbling that little in swordsmen will get you no defenses and only poor offensive abilities.
Master riflemen vs BH pistols is hard to say. Defenses are better with master riflemen and currentlyriflemen havebetter damage per second. Good users of BH pistolswithBH offense anddefenses of pistoleer, especially ifthey havesome fencer or other defenses to stack are good in PVP.

Well, I've been messing around with alot of profs, gone through pikeman, fencer, tka, swordsman, rifleman (twices got mad at it), and pistoleer. So far I've stuck with Fencer the whole way through. As for weapons, heh, I'm pretty well set with my 350 damage Jawa Rifle and all the fun T21 my server has to offer... The whole reason I made this char and I switched servers was for PvP. So far I must say Im not bad, but my defence isnt what i would like it to be. And Rifleman has some really uber defence and not to mention the CRAZY amounts of damage they do. Another question, which is the best rifle for PvP? I've alwaysed thought that a nice Jawa would do some good, but i've seen some peeps with their T21 do some masive damage... What would you say? Jawa, T21 or the DX?

Heh, well over all, since Im in the middle of a Server Wide War right now...
I wont be able to grind the way i would like. But, I think that Master Brawler/Fencer/RifleMan tka? 3000? Im think that might do some good, but I've never ever liked TKA, just kinda over powering. One thing Im wordering is what weapons should i use as my main for PvPing, Stun Baton, or my Jawa?

I am a rifleman/fencer/tk 4004, with novice medic.
I like rifleman and have had it forever... and have tried just about every template you can think of with it. I will admit I have fencer because it makes me better, although ive always liked rifles even when they sucked.
For weapon choice, in PVP it just depends. I tend to mostly use rifles, especially in battles and such. Fencer is good to use when you are fighting several playersand when you dont want to get hit much.

Well, here's my idea, KD the person, Dizzy em, then lay down a crazy mind/action/heath/whatever poison, then RUN!
I've found that kiting is quite a nice thing. hehe, But what rifle do you use in PVP?

Almost 100% of the time use the dxr6 anymore. It has the best range mods and PSGs are vulnerable to it. Jawas have horrible range mods and when going against 40% stun armor, 50% stun PSGs, they hit lilke pea shooters with their AP1. If I've stuck a stun on an opponent and I'm unsure on whether they wear a PSG, I'll switch to the jawa to see how hard it hits and compare damage, but most often you're switching targets so quickly and because there are melee folks thrown in (and jedi), it's best to have your most accurate rifle out as it's more important to hit than it is to miss even if you do a little less damage per hit.

And for Speed, you cap out on speed at master rifleman anyways right? Well, I bought a 25 Jawas, and now i get to save up a few mil and get some nice DXRs... Bah, Fencer doesnt cost me this much And has anyone even found a DOT rifle?

Aye, rifle speed caps out at +97. A master riflemen alone has +90 speed. You can pick up +5 more if you master marksmen, but that's an awful lot of skill points to spend. I recommend bucking up and paying the cash for the +7 speed. You will more than double your speed with some shots, which means double the dps, mmmm, nice.
DOT rifles are around and are pretty useful in pvp - hitting strafe2 using a decent mind fire laser rifle on a group of 5 puts everyone a bit on the defensive.You can get DOT tusken rifles at the tusken fort. Average to good ones are 150 strength mind poison with potency around 75%. You can get DOT laser rifles and T21's from nightsisters. They can be health, action, mind, poison or fire, ranging from 20 to 500 strength and 2 to 250 potency. Lord Nyax carries a nice T21 that I've heard mention of him dropping every now and again and krayts have from time to time been known to drop legendary and exceptional T21's from within their bellies.
