hi my template is
marksman 4-0-0-4
rifleman master
medic 3-2-1-0
scout master
ranger 4-0-4-0
i love my template so i will never change (im also 100%rifleman will not change combat prof) Im a pve'r i mainly spend about 90% of my time hunting and thats how i have set my template up this way and it works for me but i have a question about pvp.....
im starting to feel that i want to pvp abit and get my hands dirty i have enough cash to fund what ever needs i want i already have good weaps and armour +psgs
i dont want to be uber i just want to know that will my template be able to cut it or will i just get slaughtered everytime.
i dont care if my only option is to have support i dont mind i dont want to be a pvp commando gunning every overt down on my lonesome if i need help il just stick in groups but i dont want to be the guy whoi always dies....
only bonuses i can see that ranger can help in pvp is the terrain negotiatio and burst run efficiency
mine are terrain nego +95 burst run efficiency +70
1) will my template cut it?
2) any tactics i need to do or be aware of?
3) good combos or setups do i need to be aware of?
please any info not a newb to the game but a newb to pvp.....

A rifleman will always be an asset in a big group. Long range deathblow comes in handy, plus area dizzy and area stun are helpful. I don't think you'd always be the one to die, as a ranger make sure you use the terrain to your advantage and you should be able to burst run away from melee. You'll be easier to hit than a stacked template and you'll need to be near a doctor if you get poisoned/diseased, but other than that you should be fine. Just follow most of the other pvp tips - stun armor, imperial psg, various foods/drinks. Good luck!

As said before, Rifleman will always be an asset to PvP.
I'm genuinely surprised you didn't get any CH in that template though. You could get at least one line if you dropped the Medic (not Novice, but the rest).
I don't imagine Ranger would help must in PvP, burst run Efficiency is nice, but as far as I know the time running/recuperating is the same for everyone.
With Marksman xxx4 you have Supression Fire. Dizzy + Suppression Fire on a Melee requires them to stand back up, and then they have the possibility of the "Flopping Fish"

With what you have, you shold be able to hold your own against any other single combat master. If you go up against an all-combat stacker or a CM, you'll have a tough time though.
For tapes, get rifle speed, rifle accuracy. Put your Focus and Mind as high as your race allows, buy Brandy, Canape, Ahisra for starters. Synthsteak and SnowCake if you can afford that too.
Get a helmet with a 40% stun layer, and the rest of your armor as high as base stats can go.
Buy powerups for your weapons.
Stun PSG's.

Max your mind, at the expense of your health and action secondaries. Buffs will get them high enough that it won't be an issue.
