Swordsman Archive

Ive decided on this combo for a couple reasons. First of all I look forward to throwing 4 blees on tough creatures etc.. and also to get the melee defense swordsman lacks. Let me know if this combo works, im working through it now for all of swg ive been a pistoleer and having a good time with these professions. So tell me the good or bad or if you use this combo.

I would go TK or Swordsman /Doctor or master CH Rifleman wont be as good combo as those

It depends on what you are looking for. If you are looking to primarily be a melee character, rifleman defensive mods will not be that big of a boost. And if you are not looking to Master Rifleman, you may find other professions will give you more benefits. However, that said, the combination of Master HS and Master Rifleman rocks, especially for PvE.

Two rifle bleeds from range, and a hail of Headshots while the critter charges will greatly reduce any mind it has on the way in. When it gets to close range, Warcry, Intimidate, and CenterofBeing, apply two more bleeds (if even necessary) and finish it off with HeadHit3. The rifle bleeds at the appropriate distance will single pull even critters that will normally aggro as a group.

Alternatively, if you want to do a lot of damage at once, start off with Strafeshot2 or one of the other Rifle area effect shots damaging a lot of creatures at once. If they make it to you, switch to one of theSwordsman weapons andarea attacks and finish them all off at once.

It may not be the best defensive template in the game, but it is a powerful offensive template.
