Sorry. 
Was just wondering... Is there any major flaw with going Rifleman/Swordsman? Pulling high level mobs one at a time and aiming at the Mind, getting in enough shots to bring it down, and pull out a Swordsman weapon once they are in range? They both focus on mind, but I haven't seen many go this path. If there is any big flaw, please tell me

I am a master swordsman/rifleman and I absolutely love it. No complaints.

i would go for Swordman or TKM both have a mind shot and TKM has medatie but swordman has a much strong attack. bit the SEA cost a boat load for speed up were as with TKM u nearly hit cap even at noivce. just my two cents
both r good profs and very common you'll have a lot of cash to earn to get ur SEA for speed cap and extra accuracy

I suggest:
Marksman 4000
Master Rifleman
Brawler 4040
TKA 4001 (for force of will and powerboost plus a little defense)
Master Swordsman
Medic 1030 (you can use stim c's)

Pritty nice set up if you have it fletcherreed, personal Stim C cost way to much and only a slight boost on stim B id only take noivce medic and try get an extra block or 2 in TKA.

Rifleman/Swordsman/TKA4-0-0-4 works nicely in PvE and PvP. Capped ranged and almost capped melee defence. State defences aren't great but I like swordsman too much to go fencer.
Swordsman sort of makes rifles redundant in PvE though (any old gun can be used to pull a creature out), master brawler for a bit more speed and toughness would probably be more useful with some stacked TKM and fencer defences.

For Solo PVE, TKA meditate rocks. The only reason you'll need to go back in town is Battle Fatigue and Buffs.

Well, I'd imagine you'd want to stick to Swordsman/Rifleman in order to be able to dish out some serious mind damage.

I am a master rifleman/master swordsman and I think it is great. In PvE, you will be able to solo almost anything. I love it!

Yea I love Master Swordsman/Master Rifleman The blast damage from Swordsman makes quick work of Spellweavers, but they are also vulnerable to kinetic. The thing I like about Swords over TK is the AP2. I miss meditation as a former TKM, but not enough to lose my ap2 blast damage.
If you really want to go TKM, then I would suggest you try to pick up some unarmed damage+ tapes. TK is the only skill it works for, and with +25 you really notice the difference.

I am a master rifleman looking for a melee class myself (or 2). I think I am going master rifleman / master swordsman / TKA 4 0 4 4. BTW, what are the maxes on ranged/melee defense?
