I left SWG last December, but couldn't resist the temptation to play it again. So I re-activated my account two nights ago. Now with the new expansions and CU system, I havesome questions and need help to catch up on things. My current state are:
Marksman 4444
Rifleman 4404
Bounty Hunter 3303
Scout 4040
Medic 1112
I know these are not the best templates in the game lol. That's why I'm asking help from you all here. Currently I don't know which abilities I have to use as the best way for hunting. Mostly I use Improved Head Shot, Improved Critical Shot, Lethal Shot, Improved Sniper Shot and sometimes Torso Shot. I don't understand about the need of using Ranged Shot, Placed Shot, Eye Shot, or Rapid Fire. So, as you all here are dedicated Riflemen and Bounty Hunters, I want to ask some questions, such as:
1. Which abilities that give me the best option for offensive at the moment? Is there any specific step? Example: Improved Critical Shot first the followed by Lethal Shot, etc. Is there any special abilities that I have to use it a lot more?
2. Are there any abilities that are not very critical but necessary for me? Apart from those abilities that fall into the first question?
3. What weapon that suits me best at this stage?
4. Is there any guide about weapon usage? Maybe a list so we can know or define which weapons we can use in our level state?
I think, that's what I want to know at the moment. I've tried to ask around but sometimes people are too busy levelling or doing quests. So I really rely on replies in this forum. Oh, I'm thinking to drop some of my skills to pursue my dream to become a Jedi. Is it possible? Is it good idea or just a waste of time?
Once again, I thank you all who read and even reply to my questions. I know I'm not the first one asking these, as people who come back to SWG will feel confused about so many things.
Thank you

OK...considering you still have your token respec, try getting rid of that
-Master marksman is kinda like a waste of skill pts unless you really need the mods.
-Like before, without Master in Rifleman it is crap. The master box startle shot will become really useful in pvp. Not to mention the mods andadvanced sniper, the most powerful attack in the game (so far)
-I guess you haven't tried Advanced Critical Shot before. It does around 1200 with a good weapon, andyou can alternate that attack with headshot or torso shot
-You also want Master BH so you can use confusion, eye, underhand shots and the mods in the 3rd collumn
-Are you a pve'er?? If you're not, you should give upScout xx4xunless you're a harvester
-Focus medic on the 3rd column. The firstis crap unless you want to become doctor, and the last is useless. Get someone else to make stims, preferably master doctors. You can use those too. The higher you are in Healing Efficiency, the better your Bacta Tosses and Bacta Shots
