Actually, it would make .25, but that's not the issue...

The numbersindicate the player's level of advancement up the "trees" within a profession. Therefore, a marksman who was 3/3/4/2 would have lvl 3 rifle, lvl 3 pistol, lvl 4 carbine and lvl 4 carbine. These are the four columns viewable when you look at a profession's skill box. Threfore, someone who just needed to get master would be 4/4/4/4 in their profession.

"Tank," as I understand, is a common term for a big brute player or pet that takes on an enemy or a large number of enemies hand to hand, while other players keep some distance and attack the creature or NPC attacking the "tank." In SWG, these tend to be high health beasts with good resists. It allows the player controlling the pet to fight from a little further back, from a safer position.

it comes from a type of game called a m.u.d. usually a warrior class would be the one taking the damage, not necessarily good at doing damage, but good at taking it.

imo you need atleast 3.0.0.4 in heal (cure poison,disease,heal stats)

i think the best would be to go MLS,MDefence,Heal 4.0.0.4 i could be wrong tho

That's what I am, and I have no issues whatsoever! With the latest defense stacker stealth nerf, I can maul a TKM quite easily, if they can't land a warcry on me. Preternatural defenses are nice that way!

If I'm fighting a Nightsister Elder and my TKM/Swordsman gets mauled, I can hit /preventIncapacitation and either run to my speeder, or wait for the doctor to re-buff while the Nightsister flails uselessly at my HAM-less body!

Well we are kinda limited on templates.

mLS mEnhance Heal 4004

mLS mDefender heal 4004

mLS mHealer Enhance 4004

From there you have the ground then you can add 1-2 skills there change a little there with more...

vise versa there arnt that many different kinds of templates you can do becuse of lack of power/skillpoints/broken abilitys bla bla you get my point

And as a tank, you dont tank as a jedi not even with forcearmor/synthsteak there is no way you can compare to a 80%kin comp armor
