Well im probably coming back to star wars galaxies but I have some questions about template ideas for rifleman. I created in 2003 so I have veteran rewards.... Basically I at first was going tkm/other melee for innate armor and because I liked pikeman etc. After taking with people though I decided its not best to be a melee right now. I hear a lot of rifleman/MBH. The thing with tkm's innate armor is I don't have to spend massive amounts of credits on armor which was very appealing.... I want my role to be a ranged damage dealer basically but not sure if armor is going to be a huge huge hassle or if it won't be that bad. Tkm/rifleman im assuming is bad since only rifleman skills and no other ranged abilities if im wrong please correct me.

simple things post-cu
- melee stacks better with melee and ranged with ranged
- states can mean something
- armor helps but it is not the be all and end all it used to be (it caps at around 60% resists)
- rifle has the longest range
- all combat templates (even ranged/melee) are viable
- some are just more viable then others

As a fat, yellow twi'lek you might have seen me hunting Krayts in my thong. Armor is overrated for basic play. In pvp it's a must, but when doing mobs armor is completely optional. My success rate against krayts while wearing my thong is about 80%. The 20% death rate is because of warping. So if I can solo an ancient in a thong, youcould say armor is not the be all and end all of SWG combat.

if i were you, i would buy a good set of armor, like faction or RIS armor or somethin, because you never know when you are gonna duel someone. and i know for a fact that my armor has saved me many times, because i was cl 16, and gettin pounded by mutant womp rats that were a lower cl than myself. then i bought armor, and i went to kashyyyk and dominated whole bantha heards, which were much stronger than me...or so i thought, so i would recomend a good set of armor, but get like a repair kit or somethin and carry that around too
