Obviously, the Doctor and CM skills will be good. In regards to the Rifleman skills, I guess it'sviable as a support role. The Rifleman part probably won't be good for a whole lot more than Snipershots on incapped players- though the Headshots are there if you really need them(which you shouldn't 
). Besides, with all those points in Doctor and CM, you should have your hands pretty full as-is. And since your friends should be doing the damage while you hang back where it's safe, may as well just use a CDEF rifle for its super-low HAM costs and speed(assuming you aren't forced to actually do any 'real' fighting).

For your purposes the template sounds like it could work.. however, unless you have some Combat Medicine use tapes, then don't expect to be able to use the higher end poisons or ranged stim E's..
Then again, the 'support' role you intend to use would force you to stay as far out of the main fighting zone as possible, but close enough to keep the area stims/poisons working.
And as a Combat Medic myself, I've been through the corvette several times (mostly alongside swordsmen/tkm's) so you have to pump out the area heals quite alot, keep your mind buffed at ALL times (even if for emergencies, taking muon) and keep an eye on the group, making sure you have a direct line of sight to the people that really need the heals.
Other than that, it sounds like a great support role

I thought of this template that would be great for support in pvp.....but im not sure how well the rifleman part would be...
Rifleman 4004
Doctor 4440
Combat Medic 4404
This would give me 70 rifle speed 120 rifle accuracy.....buffs, state heals, revive player, mind heal, poisons, diseases, range heals, headshot 3 and sniper shot......i was just wondering what your guys opinions are on this template.

other than DBing players from a far. if you are 100% support i'd suggest mastering the two healing classes. to dabble in rifle is a waste IMO because of its sheer power at master i dont see how you'd get use from 4004 rifle. be better to just be master doc master CM and throw disease and poisons then if someone attacks you, focus on healing till someone else kills him. you wont be able to kill much but with rifle 4004 you wouldnt be able to kill much more. and with master doc CM you can buff for 2400 and use the high end stims. just my personal opinion, if you arent going to master rifleman, then there shouldnt be a need to start it.

i think you could do well using a rifle in this situation. get a really good krayt laser rifle w/ a stock (for min dmg)and spam flurry 2 from the rear of your group. you'd be doing some good damage and adding a dizzy. you just better have mind buffs out the wazoo to be able to do this tho. using rifle specials and medical abilities will suck that blue bar dry quick.
