You might want to look here too. A GREAT overview of "Master Ranger + XXX" as a template by Owen Lars. Very useful, details the pros and cons on almost all the professions you might want to team up with Ranger.

CH is not practically useless. It is useless. Totally.
CH has been supplanted by DE. Droids are better tanks, cheaper and easier to maintain, and have one great feature - NO SKILL POINTS TO USE.
Triple master and you can use droids, be a Scout/Ranger/Combat profession. Or go and Master CH. Watch the crtitter get past your pets, it eats on you. Oh, too bad, you are not a Master in a combat profession. Hello cloner.
Wait, your pets do mainly Kinetic damage. That critter has 90% kinetic resistance. You can't use the good weapons it is vulnerable to because you are a Master CH. Hello cloner. Droids do damage thru weapons and kinetic. And have resists. All for NO SKILL POINTS.
You are down, incapped. Droids will not only fight the current target, if you told them guard, they will fight anything targeting you to DB you. Pets tend to stop when you are down. NO SKILL POINTS.
just my opinion
did I mention, no skill points for droids?

Brisc is just jealous that CH is practically useless at the moment (but fun once you get past that and the bugs).

I have also noticed that droids tend to pull agro off of you... on many occaision I have placed a droid on guard and attacked something.. the instant it notices I am under attack it moves in and 80-90% of the time the mob will switch agro to the bot...
but CH does have a use, you can have a mount AND a droid out
