Ok right now I am TKM/Master doc and prolly tommaro i will drop one of the two to go master rifleman. I am not the most activepvp player but i do duel quite abit. Ok I got TKM recently and am really liking the defense although it does suck pvp (but it is getting heat dmg soon). BUT I hear so much about Master Doc/Rifleman being the best combo of profs out there, for pvp and pve.I just dont know what to do lol. 
Help!! Im at the point where im about to decide this over a coin flip. Can you guys please help me out here?

Go Rifleman/Doctor.
Self buff, can cure poison disease and KD, great heals. also a great team asset in group pvp.
i dont know whether rifleman/tkm much good nowadays after the end of defense stacking.

He's talking about cure kd, which is not quite right but close, as doc/rifle you can cure dizzy which is really really handy since so many people just spam dizzy/kd nowadays.
I love being rifleman/doc, I eat cm's for breakfast now

Dizzy plus any posture change equals a KD. Flushing shot is a special which causes a raising posture change (a stat that can only be raised by SEAs, Defense vs. Posture Change (Up)).

Problem with the posture change up knockdown is that a player can only fall down if they initiate the posture change themselves. If you force someone to knees while they are dizzy they will not fall down, they may fall down when they try to get up again but its about a 50% chance, and if they don't fall down you have to wait out the posture change timer to try again.
So with a posture change up you have to be fighting a person who wants to be prone, do the flushingshot and hope they try to go prone again. This works good against NPC's but no player ever goes prone in combat. This may be why you got your 1 star, just a thought.
Ok, now back to the topic. As a TKM Master Rifle I do pretty good in PVP, but my one giant weekness is that damn Combat medic. If I were a doctor, combat medics wouldn't be a problem, but melee opponents might. There are tradeoffs to everything.
