Hello all, I am trying to give my input on what, in my opinion, feel is the best "dynamic duo" for PvE.

For your ranged attacker I suggest giving notice to these few choices...

Template 1 - Master Marksman / Master Rifleman / 0040 Commando / Brawler 4000 / Teras Kasi 0304 / Fencer 2000

This gives capped melee/ranged defense, although you lack as much state/posture changing defenses as your partner, you are a ranged attacker and can safely fire from a distance while your partnerbattles the oncoming onslaught of enemies.

Template 2 - Master Marksman / 0040 Commando / 0041 Pistoleer / Brawler 4040 / Master Swordsman / Teras Kasi 0004

This gives amoderate amount of defense as well as being able to go head-to-head against your foe's with your partner.

Template 3 - 4000 Marksman / Master Rifleman / 0440 Brawler / Master Swordsman / 4440 Fencer

This gives excellent defenses to everything and allows for a nice, ranged,head attackto devastate any opponent's mind pool.

Template 4 - 4004 Marksman/ Master Rifleman / 0440 Doctor / 3004 Combat Medic

This gives weak defenses but allows for buffing within your group and poison and disease. Excellent combination in my opinion...

For your melee attacker and tank, I suggest taking note to these few selections...

Template 1 - Master Brawler / Master Swordsman / 2440 Fencer / 0304 Teras Kasi / 2040 Medic

This gives capped melee defense, awesome state/posture changing defenses, as well as giving stimpack d's and first aid, which is crucial for Nightsister hunting. You will be able to dominate any opponent you stumble across, or say, stumble's across you.

Template 2 - Master Brawler / Master Pikeman / 2440 Fencer / 0304 Teras Kasi / 2040 Medic

This gives capped melee defense, very nice state/posture changing defenses, give's stimpack d's and first aid, and also give's the option for DoT weapons. With this template mixed with a Commando's flamethrower, you will be invincible, nothing stopping your chaos.

That's what I can give to you folk's. I suggest mixing the swordsman and rifleman template together and the pikeman/commando template together. If possible get speed capped on rifles/pikes/swords, which can be pricey, yet well worth it. Also pikeman is a very, very underestimated profession, which in my opinion is one of the most powerful melee professions. Take for instance, if you go Nightsister hunting and loot a 600-800 damage Long Vibro Axe unsliced. Perhaps you get a 30% damage slice on it, it would be over 1000 damage with powerup! That's just simply incredible... This would be a great choice for krayt hunting with a commando. Grab a Nightsister Energy Lance while your at it as well, those 25% weakness's to energy on elder's can help you and ur partner become a so called "dynamic duo".

Thanks and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Great combos, but i will always think that even in a duo, one will need to have a bit of doc

Melee: Zabrak. Master brawler, master swordsman, 0040 fencer, 0040 pistoleer. And the rest either to 0440 fencer or all of it in medic. The fencer and pistol lines combined with being zabrakwill make you immune to dizzy.

Ranged: Master marksman and medic. 0040 commando, 4404 CM and some doc if possible. Mind heals, great heals for health and action. Stack the Fire DOT and some CM health poisons/diseases and you can drop anything in record time.

Melee and ranged defence is egal for high end pve as they always hit you anyway.

Edit: Just rembered that commando requires 4000 brawler. The ranged combo might not be possible and i cant check it since i dont have the char builder at work. If you need to drop any CM drop the speed or range line.

I miss one thing....

1) Master Swords/Doc or Doc 4440 and 2) Master Rifle/Ranger 0040/Entertainer 0100/Medic 2000/artisan 0030

Nr.1 can tank the hell and cure/heal/rez/buff as well as being spd.-capped making a lot of damage...Nr. 2 for finding nice loot-drops and spaming headshot3 with a good dmg.-sliced t21 while Nr.1 is tanking...if the duo is out for killing elders nr.2 can cure bleeds from nr.1...those nasty things ticking for up to 600....for rebuffing without gettin any agro or just healing mindwounds nr.2 builds a camp and make some music...and btw. nr.2 is havin a vendor...he can sell all those loot stuff....

Mastered Professions so far: * Brawler *TKA * Fencer * Swordsman * Pikeman * Marksman * Rifleman * Scout * Creature Handler * Medic

Yes you are correct about doctor, it wouldn't be bad to have one, so I added a doctor/combat medic template in there as well.

Thanks for your input!
