In your opinion. . .
Creature Handler or Pikeman to go with Rifleman.

Both are useful in PvE. CH is probably more powerful(when combined with Rifleman) since you get to keep things away from you while you sit there and shoot. Pikeman is good in PvE, but I always found myself better off using rifles than polearms. In PvP, there's no use for CH right now. Pike, on the other hand, is very good(with the right tools).

i've been both... CH was faster for killing... pikes on the other hand, well you have to loot them if you want good ones... for PvP pikes are pretty usless unless ya get quite a few speed attachments, the only good thing is the miniCM that pikes have...
MPike has the least toughness and as you know from rifles block it pretty worthless for their defence... yes you'll stack block, but its not worth it... pikes also hit the action pool where rifles hit the mind...
my advice is go with swords if ya wanna do a melee with rifleman, no one will ever outdamage you...
tk is nice too, its fast and you can heal your own wounds, plus powerboost rules...
