Thread: What other professions go good with TKA?
I am a Master TKA, Master Squad Leader, and Novice Rifleman. That leaves 3 points.
I only use the Squad Leader skills for passive defense and climbing speed for my group. Given other more interesting possibilities, I suggest finding another profession to compliment TKA, including Doctor or Commando.
I think rifle is a good compliment, as you can take out the one stat that connot be replenished easily, and you can pick off the runners somewhat. I'd trade Master Squad Leader for Master Rifleman in a heartbeat, given the option. I don't really want to grind through another skill though, so I am content to do full time PvP with the skills I have.
I am a TKA/Smuggler with some of the scout line thrown in for the camps and movement increase (also helps with finding materials for the spices) 
and love it. Feign Death will rock with this combo (can't wait to get it....) as well as spices for that last minute save.
This combo is GREAT for soloing, grouping, as well as running around exploring. While the tempation is always there to go the full Ranger/TKA line, I just love my pistol too much to let it go....and my slicing....and my spices...
Well, the reason I thought about master carbineer was the fact I could use the ranged knockdown and then run up and use my tkaKD whenever they get back up, then just lay it on them.. About going for doctor.. well I could then enhance myself but I would have to go master medic first, which would be nice.. but that's aprof. that could be used for another fightingprof. I should max my mind out? But, what happens when you don't get ehancements? I would probably die for sure with low health and action.. If I go master carbineer I can also go master pistoleer with master tka.. that would be sweet. And hell if I get an AT-ST, what's the point of ch..? Still not real sure.. I guess I'm just going to concentrate on tka right now and just mess around with other stuff..
Thanks for the advice, keep it coming.

I've thought about smuggler before, but not real sure if slicing stuff and making spices is what I'm really into. A squad leader or ranger would be cool.. I still think commando may be a good option, but with that I won't have many skill points to spare..

tank the f*cks and sit back and punch the sh!t outta em'
I can make clothes with my hands, and kick ass with my hands
Just as long as TKA/CH's know they are outclassed in soloing ability by commando/tka's
*grin*.
TKM Master Rifle is a very powerful combination with very few weaknesses. The 2 professions cover the weaknesses of the other very well, their defenses generally stack (exception Defensive acuity). the damage output is amazing at all ranges. Master rifle generally use random ham attacks, which make the TK Ham attacks very useful.
Kite me please.
They are both relatively hard professions to master, but very good togather.
The problem i see with TKA/Commando is the concentration of damage at short range. They are both very good at it, but only 1 or the other is used at any one time. With rifle, you have great damage at long range and then switch to TK in close.

I'ts not that you can't really only use 1 at a time. I often use both interchangeably. For example.....
Knockdown2+dizzy+flamesingle2.... in pvp this combo will kill anything. In PVE this combo will kill alot.
But you are very much correct we are heavily slanted towards short range dmg dealing... and to that effect you've probably got the better PVP template. But not in PVE.
