TKA 3-0-0-0
Pistoleer 3-0-2-1
Novice Medic
Plan is to be decent with pistols, pick up on the medidtation line and powerboost, be able to track anything and camo myself, heal myself, etc. I'm not going to be a towering epitome of combar prowess, but I plan to be rather self-sufficient and able to survive with a variety of skills.
(Okay... so I'm just a bit bloodthristy today...)
Haha. I consider myself a "dormant" Smuggler, since I do not, or do not entirely plan to have full Master Smuggler skills.
I still have my Master Smuggler on Eclipse, I just never play that character anymore, and I haven't played my current one enough to even use up all the skillpoints yet. 
I'm kinda holding out to see what happens with the CURB, and mythical Smuggler revamp, to see if I'll come out of my "dormant" state. I'm a Smuggler at heart, but that heart just doesn't quite have it in it to master Smuggler again, yet.
I also have the disturbing conflict of which profression to not master, since I'm also interested in the Ranger ways, and there's not SP for both.
I have been twiddling with the character template builder for the longest time, looking at different layouts, and I may very well end up doing 4-0-4-0 instead of some of the Pistol skills... or just dropping TKA entirely. I'm horribly indecisive.
P.S. Not a he. I know sometimes it's hard to tell with Rodians, though.

Been a triple threat since Aug of 2003.... OMG has it been that long?
Well, I finally got the heart to try something new.
Started dropping TKA for some force LUCK Baby!!! Soon all of TKA will be gone, and it will be filled with BH Pistols, and maybe some Investigation.
We seem to have a "Jedi" problem on Kettemoor

Go get one of the Force Sensitive skills, either Healing, Ranged Speed, or Ranged Accuracy would help out that template.
Doesn't help much. If I get FS skills, it means I have to drop Commando (I only have one skill point left). And I can't take up healing because I'm not a Master Doctor.
But right now I've been going for Melee Accuracy and I think Ranged Speed... I completely messed up on the first one because I didn't know what I was doing...
I didn't mean get more than one skill, just the one that would help you out the most.

I guess I must be more insane since my planned template is this:
Ranger: 4-0-4-0
Master Smuggler
Pistoleer: 3-0-0-0 or 0-0-3-0
I've been a ranger for most of my SWG life and I couldn't bear to give it up. I'd miss my TN (kicks total butt in crawling races!) and creature knowledge. Plus, if they ever make camo kits work on PCs, and if they ever institute bounties on us, I'll be prepared to crawl past bounty hunters undetected.

I'm a smuggler/shipwright with some merchant thrown in. It sucked to drop my combat skills, but I'm better at space PVP than I ever would have been on the ground.. and whenever I start to feel bad about being such a ground wuss, I just retire to my house, where I sleep on a pile of money with many beautiful women.

I'd be more Ranger and more Smuggler if there were more damned skill points. I like both, and I can't decide. I also don't want to be a totally defenseless schmuck, hence the pistoleer. I'm also cheating the rest of the camo line by using BE clothing, and mooching camo kits off Master Rangers I know.
I'm just sad that I can't give up Ranger, and I can't give up Smuggler, and I can't have both at Master.

Hey what are you smugglers adding to your template, pls explain what and why and your favorite specials. I'm the classic Master Smuggler/Master Pistoleer. Sorry about my sig I will update it. The reason I'm started this post is the find out what is working best, because as you know as pistoleer/smuggler I have alot off specials to many to use, I would like to cut down on some of them by trimming the fat leaving the meat of the spcials that I will use in pve and pvp. I figure I will need intimade shot, bodyshot, stopping and concussion and maybe some others but not all 11-14 specials.....so go ahead share your smuggling templates.
