I have a feeling that my template of choice may not be a favored one by the general community (Master Smuggler, SL 4-4-4-4, Medic 0-2-0-0). But I seem to be holding my own. I originally only chose SL for the armor type after the CU. But after playing for a whilewith this particular set of skills I am really starting to appreciate the squad leaders abilities. Of course if any of you should know of a way to make this even better let me know, just keep in mind MS is my chosen profession. I am still fairly new to the game so any advice post CU would be welcomed.
play the game your way, is my number one piece of advice. I'm a MSL by trade but will also master BH. taking some medic was agood choice i think. it gives you the ability to be more supportive to your squad mates, and to yourself. just watch out for Volley Fire when fighting social or BAF (Bring A Friend) mobs. Volley pulls that targets agro onto you and if they're social, others as well. i've learned that one the hard way 
as far as filling all the trees but not the master box? well, unfortunately you're not missing much. some extra bonuses but nothing on par w/ other professions. i will say though that you are missing out on some of the coolest weapons in the game that are only available to MSL.
in my observation, the unfortunate truth is that WE ARE MASTER SQUAD LEADERS IN NAME ONLY
Just want to add that a Squadleader is not messured by his given abbilities but his natural capability to lead others into combat
If you watch out for your friends, use goodstrategies in combat and time your specials you will be a leader others look up to
remember to be a leader does not mean your better, just that you make others better by your presence
NOW... FORM UP YOU SLIME BALLS!!!!!
