As of now, I'm not a hardcore gamer for about 2 more weeks till finals are over hehe



I was wondering if my master medic(have now), eventually master rifleman, and master fencer. I thought this might be a good combo. Just would like peoples opinions.



thx

no very bad combo


medic and rifle both drain from your mind so you will be hurting there. You will not be shooting as much with your rifle if your healing.


Fencer is not good with rifle in my opinion as they don't benifit one another really.


TKA is much better than both of these as you have meditation so you can heal wounds poison disease bleeds after the fight and regen your HAM much faster. You have a mind hit with TKA that will help with your rifle as rifles do mind dmg. Fencer does health dmg.


Pikeman would be good to go with you as they both have block.


I would go TKA or Pikeman if I was rifleman and maybe dabble alittle in both.

it depends on your race playing style etc, i personally am eventually going to be a CM/Rifleman so i can heal and offer some damage without getting slaughtered. As a Zabrak i can get my mind stats very high tho so i personally dont worry much about mind.


do you really want to have a melee profession as well? taking nov brawler would use up an extra 15 skillpoints right off the bat, you might want to consider going up carbineer or pistoller some instead so you can use the skillpoints towards scout or something. If you really want melee however id go with TKA. my alt has 003 tka and even at that his defense has gone up a good amount and with VKs can do some nice damage up close.


but ultimatly its whatever instrests you, its only a game so you should have fun with it

I definitely see what you mean, I didnt want to be a TKA b/c its a bit overpowered, but ya you can't beat that mind damage and meditation. Hmmm I guess I'll have to drop fencer, I would like to be a fencer, but it prolly wont work. Perhaps I'll try and squeeze in some ch before the nerf and drop medic.


So new question, I would like to know should I definitely drop medic?

keep medic and see if it works for you. For my playstyle medic would not work.

Oh Oh, what about this, I could move my stats so I mainly just have mind, all my others mind/action would be 400 min and mind at about 1200/800/800, then since I'm a doctor I could always buff myself so my stats would look like 3k/3k/1200(without my trusty muon).


That would take off lots of pressure off of my specials. I love bleeding mind, its so effective. What about that? I could even drop brawler.

Umm, Rifle/Fencer is one of the best templates for pvp ever. I forget the exact skills, but it's Master Rifleman/Master Fencer/Some Medic/anything left into brawler defence trees.

Rifleman + 2h sword. Using the 2 rifle bleeds for 1k+ and the 2 sword bleeds for 2k+ means you can really kill things fast. I used this strategy for killing fs npcs on dantooine. Armor is a must but buffs are not. But if you just want all around utility tka would be the way to go, they get everything.

as a master rifleman/master marksman/ 0240 doctor - yeah, you can havea LOT of fun with this setup. (drop master marksman for something else, if you like). awesome in both PVP and PVE.


i would suggest a higher focus setting though.1100 works nicely.


Rifleman /TKM is great - very well rounded.


Rifleman / Fencer is what i'm working on right now - fencer gives unbelievable defenses to both ranged and melee.. all said and done, i'll have around 150 ranged defense (i haven't calculated it yet, but it should be close). nevermind all the other defenses vs status.


atm i'm looking at Master Rifle, Master Fencer, TKA 4002, medic 0010.


just changin it up a bit. doctor is a lot of fun though. i'll miss the buffs. back to food and drugs for me

Lol Jeisyn I guess we do think alike.


As my guild moved to Chimaera I thought I'd try something other than MRm / Doc so I'm working towards MRm / master fencer / TKA 4300.
