Yeah, it's the age-old question again. But if they'd stop changing the gameall the time,we would not have to keep asking, lol. And I'm not giving up MCH.
Used to be the easy answer was Flame 4 Commando. Now with the DOTs nerfed, I'm not so sure.
For me, it might be Master Rifleman. Here's my logic:
1. My three characters are on the same server. Two of them are maxed-out - an MBH and a Master TKA/Master Gunfighter. My gunfighter uses pistols, of course and my MBH uses carbines primarily. I have about a dozen unused uber laser rifles and T21s gathering dust. As a Master Rifleman, I could use those to great advantage.
2. Flame 4 is not what it used to be after the last publish. Actually, all DOTs are much weaker now. DOTs are important in PvE, so the old flamer, while it looks cool, just isn't as good in the wild. Riflemen are strong without relying on DOTs.
3. Master Riflemen ain't gonna get nerfed anymore.
4. Rifleman skills for long range, combined with using your pets to tank, sounds like a great combo.
5. Master Rifleman is good at PvP and when combined with MCH, also is good at PvE.
6. Between all three of my maxed-out characters, I would have a wide vareity of ways to attack, interact and have fun.
What do the assembled multitudes think?

Rifle was better than than commando pre-dot nerf....
everyone is getting a nerfing if we use the strictest definition of the word.
rifle and all other combat skills are going to change and change soon.
MCH will remain the supreme PVE support skill that it is currently even with the addition of the new pet bugs from patch 6 which should be fixed before too long they are working like mad to figure out why it is happening and still keep the intended improvements.
what will rifle become?? no one knows. not even the coresspondents. the devs are not going to say until they are done coding and have something concise they will show to the masses. they are not going to talk to even the correspondents about what they are doing until something concrete is mostly finished and ready for testing.
