I want to pick up a melee profession that compliments rifleman. I spend most of my time hunting mobs, but do some PVP as well. What do you all recommend for a second (melee) profession and what combos work for you? Thanks in advance for your input

TKA - Ranged/melee defense & Meditate
Swordsman - More Offensive punch & mind hits
Pikeman - DOT lances and max out +block+

Well I've got TKM, which works rather well, as it almost maxes out your melee and ranged defenses, plus you get meditate and force of will, which are fantastic.
However, swordsman will allow you to hit the mind as well, which is handy to go with the rifles. Polearms will give you great block defense stacking. Depends on how you like to play the game really!

For PvE, Master Rifleman/Master Swordsman/Master Brawler is one nasty combination.

I've been doing quite a bit of research on this myself and I am currently leaning torwards Master Rifleman/ Master Doctor. From what I understand you can hold your own pretty darn well in PVE and PVP and you can of course buff yourself, heal states, poison, fire, etc.I guess it comes down to what you have the most fun doing though, so just a suggestion.

Fencer bud - by a LONG shot.
First it gives the best defences out of ALL the melee profs.
Secondly ever use a goodAcklay Stun Baton before?Watch it cut straight thru Armor / PSG's / Food buffs.
Pike / TKM / Swordsman all have diff getting their dmg thru due to the dmg type of the weapons. My PvP armor is at LEAST 85% all stats with 40% Stun. I have been KD'd many a time just for the TKM to find out he cant kill me as he is hitting me for near nothing -even with the dmg bonus u get for hitting a target on his/her back.
