Im currently a 100% melee fighter
Master Swords
Master brawler
tkm
some fencerand medic.
I can solo pretty much anything in PVE.
But ive been everywhere and done everything with this template.
I love it but im considering go for other profs to keep the gaming alive some, and also do more pvp.
How would this template stand up? in both pvp and pve.
Master Rifleman for main combat prof
Teras Kasi master for second combat prof, meditation and the defenses
Pistoleer 0040 defenses
Smuggler 0410 for feign death and i just want the slicing tree.
give me some downsides and up's on this template, let me know what you think.

If you template it out it wont be enough of a change, but Master rifles worthwhile & a real task to do. Its not easy, but if youve got TK youll cope well enough.

Downsides are no medic, no scout or artisan. You can't heal yourself in combat because you don't have medic. You can't heal poisons. You will be very dependent on buffs. Other then that, it sounds like a good mix.

yeah, i might consider squize in atleast novice medic somehow, i got novice med and injury treatment speed 1 on my current template, and that works just fine soloing elders as lons as you got good stims with ya

i say drop pistol defenses, pick up 2040 medic to heal bleeds and use stim D's...erm ok, didnt mean to post that... meant to add in FD is nice, but slicing you wont hit really good slices without master...cap is 30 at 0400 but its 35% at master for weapons...35 on armor at 0400, 40 on armor master...yea...

Pick it up if you want, I personally had a lot of fun with a few different templates, not many uber ones, but rifleman is a very good profession to have in any template. I just recently cancelled my rifleman account and liked it so much to pick it up again with my first account.Oh well, here are my personal favorites.
Master Rifles-Master Smuggler-Medic 0040-TK 4000 (Just plain fun, although smuggler is not for the light hearted)
Master Rifles-Master Fencer-Master Brawler-TK 2000
Master Rifles-TKM-Master Brawler(Well Rounded)
Master Rifles-4030 Doc-4004 CM (Very VERY Good in PVP)
Master Rifles-Master Pistoleer-Master Marksman (IMHO one of the funnest combos out there. The two professions done go together very well, but I always liked having a good pistol or two handy when my mind was down and rifle HAM costs were huge. Then again I'm a die-hard Rifleman and Pistoleer nut, my two favorite professions.)

I did Rifleman because i throughly enjoy fireing my 30 '06 Winchester Featherweight bolt-action rifle at watermelons and watching them explode everywhere!!! Cinderblocks are almost as satisfying but watermelons are best...... mmmm so much fun, the big kick, the stuffed feeling my left ear got, the satisfaction that comes with fireing something that big and loud...... ahhhhh er ehhem i live out in the woods i can do it all day and nobody will care 
hehe.
hehe.Man even the sorenesss in my right sholder from fireing 20 rounds in reletively quick sucession made me happy.......... lol i just loved rifles and after the long grind that i almost gave up im at master rifles and would probably sooner leave the game than drop rifles.... anyways its got really low spec def's and almost no melee defence so i'd pair it up with a prof with decent defences. But the damage output against NPC's is awsome if you learn how to use it well.
