I am trying to figure out a good PvP template, as well as a good PvE. Do bleeds still stack? Because then I could hit 2 mind bleeds from rifleman, get into melee range and hit 2 more bleeds on them. I was just curious about this template. Also would have TKA 4404 if that makes a difference.

This is my friend's template and he loves it. No bleeds do not stack anymore and their "damage per tick" has been reduced to a laughable amount. Even with the bleed nerf you would still be a powerful force being able to shoot the most powerful guns (not including commandos) and weild the most powerful melee weapons. The only problem you would have especially in PvP is a lack of defenses.

I am a Master Rifleman/Master Swordsman/Master Brawler. I love the template. As mentioned in above, it is not a defensive template, but it is a heavy damage tempalte. The bleeds do not stack and have been nerfed (I used to be able to easily average 4,000 - 5,000 in mind bleeds in PvE, but no more). However, you can start out at range and attack mindand, if they close to melee range, switch to sword and continue attacking mind. Conversely, you can attack mind at melee range and pick them off as they run, continuing to attack mind. The same is obviously true of attacking with Random Pool attacks.

With this template I'll have 122 melee and ranged defense. Does that do any good in PvP? I know it will in PvE, but will this help a little to counter the lack of defenses against stun, blind, KD, etc?
