I picked harvesting because with all the creature killing I'm going to be doing , It would come in handy to be able to sell all that Hide/Meat

The meditation line from TKA is one tree I don't think I will ever drop. Power boost, Force of Will and wound healing all in one tree is very nice. If you were to drop the marksman support tree and one of your harvesting trees I think you could pick it up.

Wouldn't Pikeman/Rifleman block defense stack?
Also I picked swordsman because of defense, rifleman gives the punch, now I need the block, so what melee , or ranged I guess gives the highest overall anything defense?
E.G.: not Block, or Dodge :.E.G.

if you want you could trade swordsman for pike and get block stacking and also some uber pike dots. BUT, swordsman targets mind, has medium AP and has better defense and toughness than pikeman.. i'd probably keep swordsman.
the single best defensive line in the game is Pistoleer trickshot (xx4x pistol). +50 to KD, +40 to just about everything else).
if you want best overall defenses, drop 2hand and pickup master fencer (feel free to combine master fencer with trickshot, w00t!). it's what i have and it works great - BUT, i do envy 2hand sword melee dmg. for pve, i'd stick with swordsman. there's nothing you can't do with rifle and swordsman. i'd just pick up some medic for stims.
consider dropping terrain negotiation if you need more skillpoints. with swoops and mounts, it's not that big a' deal.
if you need some defense for very minimal skill points, pick up force sensitive ranged and melee defense. you can get +12 to both for only 8 points - not bad.
if you find you always use 2hand or you always use rifle, you may end up wanting to switch it up a little bit.
if you find you always use 2hand, drop rifle and pickup fencer and trickshot trees. - this gives you awesome defense and keeps ranged mitigation at 2, which is still useful.
if you always use rifle, drop 2hand and pickup fencer and trickshot trees 
but if you use both, keep what ya got, 'cause it's awesome!
