Hunting mobs to harvest (No PvP, just PvE). what 2 player team would be best of the following 2 configurations?.


Number one combo option:


Player One- Master Rifleman-Master Marksman- Master Scout- Novice Ranger (tracking 4)

Player two- Master Medic-Master Doctor-Master Rifleman-Novice Marksman (rifle and ranged support)


Number two combo option:


Player One- Master Rifleman-Master Marksman-MasterScout- Novice Ranger (tracking 4)

Player two- Master Medic-Master Doctor- Master Creature Handler-Novice Scout (hunting and Exploration)




As i see it, the number one option can do a masive amount of mind Damage, would this be enough to Kill the High level Mobs before they get to you?


Or is it better to have the pets toTank,that the Number two combo option allows, in order to kill hard mobs.


Any help on this would be great.

Number 1 might run into problems if you have some very tough social mobs. They might get the jump on you before you can finish them off, but with both of you being fully buffed that might not be an issue. Otherwise instead of Master dr./master rifleman you could make him master dr. / master tka and then he could be the tank and major damage dealer. With that combo I think you could do all the PvE hunting that's necessary.

So you suggest a third option:


Player one Master Rifleman, Master Marksman, Master Scout, Novice Ranger (Tracking 1)

Player two Master Doctor, Master Medic, Novice Brawler, Master Teras Kasi, Novice Scout (hunting 1)


If you go this route, would Master Teras Kasi be better than any other Tank (Brawler Class)? I mean the best damage on Rifleman is Mind Damage, would it be better complimented by Swordman, Pikeman, Teras Kasi or Fencer when it came to dealing mind Damage too.?

I would suggest dropping scout from your doc and instead getting the Combat Medic Support tree. If you're doing Master Medic already, the mods from the Ranged Support tree are nice to have and it's 20 points with a 14 point prereq for 40 TR, ranged/AoE stims/poison/disease, instead of 29 points for 40 TR and.. uh.. mask scent.


Also, you don't -really- need to master doc to getuseful buffs. Granted, the best doc buffs will be a Master Doc with a 110+ medical droid and +25 wound healing clothes. However, at 0/4/4/0 I'm able to buff my stats from 900-2200 with 800 power packs.This is plenty to give me a good buffer if I accidentally take damage, and I can't buff the mind stats that matter for my rifle specials anyway. After around 2000 HAM you're looking at no major benefit - anything that can kill you with 2000 HAM while you're healing yourself is probably going to one shot you with a force power, so you can use the extra points on.. something else.


Just some observations. Personally, I'm a Doc (0/4/4/0), Combat Medic (4/4/0/4), and Rifleman (1/1/0/2) and working on rising up the Rifleman tree.

I'd suggest Rifleman/CM and Swordsman/Doctor.

My advice, not gospel but good enough.


Player 1- Master Rifleman/CH/Scout Ranger 0-0-4-0


Player 2- Master Rifleman/(Doc or CM)/Medic-Doc to get the nice buffs(and I anit talking about health and action, no Strength and quickness with corellian icecream equals infinite specials), Combat Medic gives nice DOT's and ranged heals.


(With pets the marksmen speed is not needed)


-That should make you two a lean mean PVE machine
