Hello all squad leaders!

I've been thinking about a good template for my alt recently and came up with the idea of a PvP support/lead person. SoI was thinking about this template:

Master Carbineer

Medic xx3x

Merchant 34x2 (I need this part for other stuff, so just disregard it in the following question

)

Squad Leader x4xx or xxx4

I'm kinda bending over to the x4xx because I think it's useful to be able to pinpoint your target with the nice red square of Volley Fire in PvP. But is it worth handing down 20 General Ranged Accuracy and 10 speed to get Volley Fire and +45 Defenses?

And also, what are the current other benefits of Volley Fire than the nice red square?

Or is it just completely bugged?

Volley fire is straight 15% more damage on the target from every teammember.

It's THE reason why the SL currently can't be seen as completely broken and worthless. Though, SL 0300 gives you all you need in that direction, volley fire bonus does exactly nothing.

just as sylow said, SL 0300 will give you the best special we as SL currently have as well as the /sys command to lead your group, but with PvP mostly being more then just one group you'll be using /shout or /command more often.

Putting the emphasis on support PvP I would skip the carbineer and put the combat medic into that, you can keep all your ranged guys buffed and healed while pointing at the target with SL.

In PvP or in PvE base raids I hardly am fighting, since Im just more directing the group, and since this is your alt as support why not fall back to total support.

Im MSL MCarb because this is the only toon I have and I need to stand my own too.

I'm too fondto carbineer and my krayted elite carbine.

And I don't want to be totally a support/lead person, I also want to do damage, that's why I chose carbs too. As for x3xx only.. Well I really can't getmuch with 2 sp. So might as well get more defense.

How long does the Volley Fire bonus last? One shot? As doesn't the red "target" lastlonger?

Ah... sticking to a precious weapon... sure understandable.

[Though, Elite has no requirements but lv. 54... so, shouldn't be an issue.]

On the duration, i don't remember the times, i took them when i tested for skill modifiers, but don't remember it. Was something like 20 or 30 seconds, i think. [Steadyaim is the ability which only affects one shot and thus currently is completely contraproductive. You'll get that for free on the x3xx line, best ifyou currently just ignore it...]

I hit better with Master Carbineer, hehe.

And thanks for the info both of you.
