Proton Rifle if you can get one - but as we have no idea yet how to do this
T-21 or plasma Flamethrower (but don't over look other tier 4 weapons from commando and rifleman)

meh I can't get a proton rifle yet.
I am currently Master Riflemen, Commando 2-4-0-3, and Pistoleer 0-4-0-0. I plan on becomming master Commando.
So... what do i think of it? Its Godly! Your accuracy (with this template) ends up to be 320. The highest defense of any player i have seen thus far was 280 and under the new CU you deal more damage for each point of accuracy above their defense.
I am walking around right now dealing about 1400 damage with my head shot and my body shot to any given target using my T-21 (master Riflemen) and about 900 damage using my Lighting Cannon (Commando x-4-x-x) with my head shot. I figure once i get my accuracy up even higher i will be doing a significantly greater amount of damage.
In addition, if someone gets to close to me, i can just burn them to death with my Plasma Flame Thrower (master commando).
Problems with this template? No defense. Its kinda one of those situations of "Kill them before they kill you." I mean, i have some defenses... but in general, the fight is over if they get too close to me or i am being pummled.
If you like, you can get a different third profession (You can get two full trees in Teras Kasi) however, you general ranged accuracy will drop and thus you will do less damage. Its your choice.
I was looking at Master Commando/Rifleman/Marksman with a few points left over. Talk about Accuracy!!!
With some good AA's and CA's the Hurting you will put out will just be godly. Can't wait for the Sniper Shot with a Krayt Plasma Flame Thrower!!! hehe
Having a BLAST!
I wasn't sure about the template before but decided to try it. Last night alone 2 people in once of my groups cursed em out because I had ruined their template and now they felt they had to pick up commando skills
The versatility of my template is exactly what I was hoping for.
Awesome defenses and an extra 500 health and always on 50% damage reduction from TKM.
Rifleman specials and damage (which wil be better once conceal and sniper shot work)
The ability to use commando for AE damage and crowd control (yes, CC)
Depending on the group I get in I will use either a PUPed laser rifle (got one around 500DPS), my rocket launcher, or rarely my flame thrower.
If we need damage and puling, its rifle time.
If we need Crowd control or are low on healing but have tons of damage I whip out the rocket launcher. AE knockdown and AE startle 93 seconds mob useless) with every shot more than makes up for the lower damage, and when sniper shot rarely works the damage is not bad.
If we have damage and crowd control I pull out the flame thrower and act like a deranged freak!!!
