Currently I have two characters, I'd like to make one of them a Rifleman, just not sure which would be best at it. One could go Rifleman/Teras Kasi, the other Rifleman/Creature Handler. I appreciate any insight you guys can give.

Depends on their race and what you want to do. (PvP or PvE, resource gatherer, etc.) Also, is one going combat and the other crafter? What do you want to do?

Rifleman/TKA...not bad.

Rifleman/Combat Medic...now you just have a vendetta against people.

Rifleman/Defense Stacker (I'll let you figure the stats out)...now here comes a tons of pain.

Sorry, should have been a bit more clear. One is currently a Zabrak Teras Kasi Master/Master Bio-Engineer, the other is currently a Human Master Creature Handler/Master Heavy Swordsman. In the case of the Zabrak I would drop Bio-Engineer and take up Rifleman, with the Human I would drop Swordsman and take up Rifleman. I'm looking to be the best all around in PvE and PvP. I'm leaning towards making the CH my Rifleman because having pets would at least offer me some protection in PvP keeping people off of me, even if just for a while. Not to mention that with the CH I would be able to have my BE make some awesome pets. The Zabrak of course would have the advantage of the mind stats, but I can always just get mind buffed, or take spices/food. But again...just looking for any insight anybody here can offer.

I have a rifleman/ch, and PvE is where I really excel.I can wander around, kill stuff, harvest for docs or whoever, neber get a scratch. Rancor lairs, no problem.

PvP is slightly different.Since the great CH nerf(which I hope will NOT be repeated on rifleman), pets are not that great in PvP.Master rifle skills are always enough as long as you are clever, and not get vaught too close to anyone.Bio grauls/rancors or whatever look cool, but are easy prey for a TKM unless the kinetic resist is really high.I use a couple of nice Bio Razor cats, dont attract attention, both have light armour and reasonable resists.They cannot fight for you, but can assist.As long as that is remembered, PvP is not too bad.

Hmm, given those choices I would probably make the human CH/Rifleman and migrate everything to the Mind bars. Use the left over points for surveying. Make the Zabrak a Doctor/BE. This way you can buff your rifleman for hunts and PvP. He can also collect the meat and collect the resources your Doc will need. Just a thought, I have 2 accounts and one is purely for combat andthe otheris my crafter.

I'd go with rifle/defense stacker because:

1: you'll almost never be KD'd

2: you'll almost never be dizzied

3: you'll almost never be blinded

Any other questions?

To getting a class that will stack defences...I think that the devs have gotten rid of this with the latest patch, but I am not sure. TKA is a good class (the most difficult thing is getting novice),and with armor and a buff you can probabably get the bottom row in 2-3 hours. However it may not be for you. Try out all things. Heck you may like pikeman/rifleman <insert laughter here>. Seriously just try things out for fun. If you master something and find out you don't like it, look on the bright side: you are one step closer to your f.s.s.

There are so many that complement Rifleman, I will be devastated if we are nerfed simply because the other combat professions remain broken.

PvP
Rifleman/Doctor (Buff 6 of your stats whenever you feel like, and migrate your stats to mind)
Rifleman/CM (Plain and simple this is mean, posion the mind, disease the mind, then shoot the mind)
Rilfeman/Fencer (Carry a fencer tag, and beat on your opponent up close with a stun baton, when your opponent begins to kite you, pull out your Jawa and finish the job)

PvE
Rifleman/TKA (Start off from a distance, and finish the job whenthe mob closes us)
Rifleman/CH (Let a creature Tank for you)
Rifleman/Ranger (If you want to make a load of money selling M/H/B this is the way to go)

PvP/PvE
Rifleman/Doctor (I gotta say this is gets my vote if you want to use your toon equally between PvP and PvE)

I am TKM, Master Brawler and working up Rifleman with some scout sprinkled in for now. Nothing like shooting something to death from 60m and then if it decides to charge, KD/dizzy w/ 20 sec warcry and it is pretty much over.
