So, currently I'm MRM/MBH/Pistols0404, like half the non-Jedi SWG population. I was thinking of playing around with it a bit and adding some CM. The popular way to go is MRM/MBH/CM4000, but that makes up the other half of the non-Jedi SWG population.

So, I was playing around and this is what I'm thinking of (note this template is focused completely on PvP):

Master Marksman

Master Rifleman (snare, daze)

Pistoleer 0003 (root)

Carbineer 0410 (snare, KD)

Combat Medic 4400 (heals, DOTs)

With this, I figure combat would go something like this:

Start out from max range under cover. Snipershot to open. Root target with Improved Stopping Shot.Move to 35m, throw the ranged DOTs on them.Just as root breaks, use Charge Shot to KD followed by Advanced Startle Shot to delay (they now can't get up). Head/Leg/Sniper shot. Just as they get up, Snare with Improved Crippling Shot (Knee-Cap shot too, if they stack, not sure on that). Head/Leg/Sniper shot until dead, using Root, KD/Daze or Snare as needed. Can heal whenever needed.

What are your thoughts? Was just playing around with a character builder and came across this, and actually really like it. It's different, but I think it would be incredibly effective as a Rifleman. My stats, with a rifle equipped,would be:

Ranged Defense: 210

Melee Defense: 145

Ranged Accuracy: 280

Ranged Speed: 100

Couple questions though:

1. Does anyone know if the snare effect of Crippling Shot and Knee-Cap Shot stack? I know Crippling/Kneecap Shot and Electrolyte Drain do, so if not I could drop Crippling and pick up Electrolyte Drain to effectively get another root.

2. Just checking here: Head Shot and Leg Shot are on the same timer, so they cannot be alternated like Head Shot and Critical Shot can be, correct?

Interesting template idea. I would probably try something like that out, but I like hunting Jedi too much and this has worked pretty well in PvP as well

MRM/MBH Pistol 0-0-0-1, Medic 0-0-4-0 w/formfitting undershirt +healing efficiency.

With this template I still have the damage output I like along with root, and 1000+ bacta heals to compliment my stims

problem with not having BH is the Deulist stance, that extra 250 defence is alittle nice (avarage 80pts damage saved per hit when using it)

they do stack - but they must be fired by different players.

At first I thought the same. I really like the Duelist Stance ability, however...

With the first line in CM, I'm able to heal myself for much more damage then Duelist Stance saves, I don't need to stand still to do it (hate that about Duelist Stance), and I can heal others around me. So, I decided I was willing to sacrifice it.

What about Head Shot and Leg Shot? They run on the same timer, correct? And how much of a difference is there in damage or DPS between Head and Leg Shot? My only problem with this template is that I lose Advanced Critical Shot, which I usually alternate with Head Shot for a helluva lot of damage.

Anyone have more thoughts on this thing? I have my respec token waiting for me, so I don't want too screw it up.

i was thinking about the same template, with acouple minor differences:

MM, MR, Pistol 0004, Carbs 0040, CM, 4004

or

MM, MR, Pistol 0004, Carbs 0440, CM, 4000

leg and head shot are NOT on the same exact timer. i.e. u can hit one before the cooldown on the other is finished... low SAC gun and high speed with HS and LS = lotsa damage i had them both for a few days in the golden age of respec, but i eventuly settled for the stoping shot. but i am realy considering useing my token to get back that KD.

I just found out that Charge Shot, the Carbineer's KD, requires you to be standing, which sucks for Rifleman. Though I suppose you could make a /stand; /chargeshot; /prone macro that would work quickly, and it's not like you'd be breaking Cover since if you were using Charge Shot you would have broken cover anyways.

Okay, here's what I'm thinking now:

Marksman 4444

Master Rifleman

Combat Medic 4000 (healing)

Carbineer 0430 (improved leg shot, snare, KD)

Pistoleer 0003 (root)

I have 17 skill points left over. Now, the question is, do I spend 6 for Master Marksman (+25 accuracy, +15 speed) or do I take 14 points and get an Improved and an Advanced version of a chemical fire DoT and a health DoT. The skill mods sound nice, but the question is, will I do more damage with the skill mods then I would with the DoTs? Even if I did though, how often would I be using the DoTs considering I need to get within 35m to use them?

Bah humbug

Master Mark, you won't use the dot's that often compared to your rifle plus the dot's can be healed before they tick too much meanwhile your shots are a steady source of damage from 60 meters away.

I changed my mind, again

Master Rifleman

Combat Medic 3004 (heals, combat speed debuff, paralyze, snare)

Carbineer 0400 (stackable snare, leg shot)

Doctor 0004 (buffs)

Open up with snipershot, run at them and use startleshot, paralyze, debuff + CM snare, run away, snare, alternate headshot/legshot till dead. Heal when needed. Buff before.
