Headshot cycled with crictial shot will do the most damage in the shortest space of time but you won't have much action left after a few goes with this so using a ranged shot in between these will give you time to regen more, also asking local doctor to buff you take 30 second and u get +40 to speed.
for special shotting shot aka root shot will keep them away from you for a long time when it comes does to 1-2 second left do a underhand shot to knock them down for more time for the shotting shot to recharge.
startle shot stop them attack for 3-5 second not total sure, but is break as soon as they get hit by anyone or you so use it mainly for solo reasons. plus underhand shot with startle stop them from getting up after being knock down as they can't use the knockdown recover.
useing the bounty hunter/pistoleerAoE isn't worth the trouble any more as you can't really hold your own against 2-3 more with a doctor/cm/jedi near you.
cover+conceal shot really only works outside of a group and are very useful at that but beside that it doesnt have much use with in a group
Sniper shot need to be prone has a long warm up timer but does like a minum of 1k damage or more, even to katarn etc.
even with assault armour defences keeping the monster away from you is priority number one otherwise you incap very easily.
a very basic round up of some special and uses from my point of view.
forgot dueling statance use this as often as you see fit great in duels and against multiply range npcs.

I have this template I actually have three different toolbars. One is for PvE, another for PvP, and the last is for Jedi hunting and duels. I actually use all the specials but at different times and for different reasons. However in all of these adv. critical and head shot are the big ones. In PvE I will use conceal shot and sniper shot a lot. In 1 vs 1 I like to use the big two plus underhand, disarming, startle, torso, stopping, and burst. When in large scale PvP scatter shot, fan shot, and burst shot I use the most unless there is that one person I really want to take down.

well I have always been a melee guy.... TKM/Doc long time ago... recently came back and was M Fencer/ M Swords... after some PvP tonight I have decided to give up melee.... fotm it is for me... M Rifles, MBH, 0/4/0/4 Pistols(someone recommended this to me, it seemed pretty good, and I like having MBH for money).... could someone help me out with the shots I will be wanting to use from this template? I havnt played a ranged class in a long time(and it was commando... so I dont think that really counts).
Could someone give me a sample macro bar for PvE? PvP? and if you want to be really nice, give me explanitions on when/how to use the shots?
P.S. I know I took 'the easy way out' or whatever with the respec(especailly for BH), but when SoE comes in and castrates your profession, you would too

Get use to stopping shot and underhand shot. These will keep the mob away from you for a time plus when knocked down you'll do more dam to them. Startle shot and disarmare good once they get in close, and your best damage shot in that template is Adv Critical Shot.
