I'm a triple-gimped character in that I'm a SL/BH/Wookie and have been for nearly 5 months now. ICan't PvP worth a crap and don't really do anything to bring in any income, but at the same time really dont' have any expenses... That being said, I finally decided that a profession change was in order. I was going to grab more BH boxes and maybe then dabble a bit in a combat skill to that I bring something to the fight. Thus I was going to drop my SL stuff. While I have enjoyed the SL roleplaying in the past, my guild has been absorbed by another and I havent' led a squad in weeks because of it. So there I was, just about to start clicking the "drop" button when I get a tell "Hey Kyle, You're SL right?...Please meet us at the cantina at XXXXX".... Whats this? A request for SL???? Could it be possible? Yes it was! This group of 20 or so wanted a SL to come lead them on a raid because they wanted the ranged and melee bonuses. Now, I have no idea whether these darned passive bonueses actually do anything but they seemed to think it was important... So we raid...and we get shelacked, BUT it did remind me how much fun it can be to lead a group. My /sys messages were flying..calling targets, calling medics, trying to direct fire and eventually calling for the retreat (hehe)... So now I'm stuck again. I have been reminded how much fun SL can be and don't want to lose it, but that leaves me as the triple-gimp...Aargh!!!!!

I don't care what anyone says, Having a master squad leader is very helpful.
They can spread wounds, so your combat medics can mind heal with no problems as long as you have one TKA in the group, they can cure stun and dizzy.

They can steady aim raising your accuracy for the next attack, they have volley fire to take out CM's and Doctors fast.
Plus, you get the melee and ranged defense mods, which are awesome and do work. Also you get awesome terrain negotiation, and Retreat, which we normally use to chase down running Imps, haha.
Im not a squad leader, but I love having one as my group leader.
