don't underestimate terrain negotiation, if you are outnumbered you should run even if those following you call you a coward (preferably run uphill). what happens then is that the enemy will mostly come after you one by one, each with his/her best speed. So mostly BH will reach you first because they have master scout, take them out before the others catch up and then take them out too

And taking away medic? I would never do that, even if buffed, there are times when the above doesn't help, what if facing another buffed and skilled player? it lets you survive much longer

beeing self sufficient is the most important thing when soloing, for me at least you are rifleman and tka, I would say you have enough capability to dish out damage, no need for the extra master marksman ... you could try to buy a +5 rifle speed tape, that would be nearly the same as MM

Just a thought... All the PVP I have done ( Which isn't a heap by the way ) have been on flat terrain around Bases and in cities so the Terrain Neg bonuses don't really come into effect. Novice Medic isn't a must have but it sure does help a lot and I'd highly recommend you keep it.

Ok... I'm an up-and-coming rifleman... and I have a couple questions about skills. Not about actual rifleman skills though...

I'm a TKM... as my sig states. I don't want to drop it.

Currently, I have enough points for:

• Teras Kasi Master


• Master Rifleman


• Scout 3/0/0/0


• Marksman 4/0/0/4


• Novice Medic (0/0/0/0)


• 13 points remaining (more medic?)

Now, I wanted to get Master Marksman for the extra +5 speed and +10(?) accuracy... which makes it...

• Teras Kasi Master


• Master Rifleman


• Master Marksman


• Novice Medic (0/0/0/0)


• 3 points remaining

After I get master I don't know how much I plan on doing PvE... mostly PvP. Which template would you (the more experienced rifleman) reccomend? Does the extra speed and accuracy outweigh the terrain negotiation? Should I take out medic altogether since, if I were to PvP I'd be fully buffed and my main special pool can't be healed anyway?

Thanks for any help.
