OK, I play a Master Ranger/Master Rifleman on Intrepid and I was thinking about a change. I have difficulty dropping Ranger, so what I plan to do is play around with my TC character.
I was going to make him a Master Rifleman-Master Carbineer-Scout 4/0/3/0-Medic 0/4/0/0.
Is this a good template? I've never been a Carbineer before, just Master Pistoleer, then dropped that for Master Rifleman and then a month later, the CU hit.
Any thoughts?

mr/mc is one of the best ranged templates you can have....
I would be tempted to go cm 4000 or cm 0004 rather then add the scout but to each their own.

you probably should put questions such as this in the stickied template thread

if you want scout in your temp, and go with Ack suggestion of 4000 or 0004 CM, you can try Master Rifleman/Master Carbineer/CM4000 or 0004/Scout0010, it wont give you alot of harvesting skill, but you can get a shirt and droid(these still in game?)to boost your harvesting

What does CM 4XXX or CM XXX4 give you that's so great?
The only reason I put Scout in is because of my Ranger longing

cm4xxx i believe is some great heals
cm xxx4 is some great debuffs
like I said - you have enough medic to go scout if you desire and Scout is worthwhile just I am not sure if it is worth the reduction in healing power or debuff power. (youalso get intoan elite profession vs having another novice profession as well - does not help with cl but it does give you elite levels of power/skills)

CM or doc 4000 (CM is better for ranged, because we get the ranged support line free) is essential to any template in PvP, and extremely useful in PvE, the last line of CM is nice, but you'll find it most useful in PvP, where you'll be dead in seconds withour 4000.... the scouts terrain negotiation is largely useless because you're too slow for it to matter with a rifle equiped. Really though.. i'd suggest either Rifle/Pistol or Rifle/BH, pistol has better utility shots, BH has better damage (legshot is nice, but is trumped by KD, better accuracy, and critical shot) and better defense with duelist stance... Rifle/Carbine is a decent compromise between the two, but PvP is all about specialization in a group.. and no ranged template will be able to PvP solo.
