THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE
BEST TEMPLATE - TRIPLE MASTERY
BRAWLER 4-4-4-0
TERAS KASI MASTER
SWORDSMAN MASTER
FENCER MASTER
and you are left with 4 unspent skill points (my personal choice is melee defense from enhanced reflexes) so here are some stats:
TKM - speed: 135, accuracy: 290; melee def: 320, ranged def: 245 (my favorite melee def. is 340 with enhanced reflexes)
SWM - speed: 140, acuracy: 315; melee def: 295, ranged def: 220 (take combat prowes melee speed you get152 speed.)
FNM - speed: 130, accuracy: 295; melee def: 285, ranged def: 210 (with examples abovewho need fencer)
Skills:
general melee accuracy: +205
general melee speed: +65
melee defense: +245
ranged defense: +170
Fencer is useless for tanking purposes. Its a hit&run dot profession. Pikeman's role in the CU is to be the next best tank and best melee crowd control profession.
Thanks to Master Brawler that template have the exact same stats as yours:
* General melee accuracy: +205
* General melee speed: +65
* Melee defense: +245
* Ranged defense: +170
Here's what you have:
Improved Sword Flurry (Who needs it when you have intimidate?)
Blinding Strike (Who needs it when you have intimidate?)
Improved Lounge (Basic lounge do its purpose just fine).
Berserk/Critical Strike (You dont need theese with Impale/Armor Break/Stun)
Improved Bleed (You are stuck with Bleed, which is good enough)
This is what youlack:
Intimidate, this halves the damage you take from your opponent. They can have a lightsaber if they like, and it wont help them.
Warcry, this is the only brawler queueing attack in the game. Queing rocks.
Impale, this is the highest damaging melee attack in the CU.
Stunning Blow,Stacks with Armor Break and really improve damage.

What about TKM/Doc for soloing? Do any of you guys that have this template or a variation of it think it is good/best for soloing? It's the route I'm thinking of going but am not quite sure what would be best for soloing. i"m a player with only a moderate amount of time to play so need a good soloing character.
Any thoughts would be appreciated,
JAVEWS
TKM
Master Doc
Master Brawler

Hey guys, been dabbling with the followng template and it works a treat
TK Master
Master Force Powers
1100 Healer
Its great going toe to toe with tkm and then whipping out a force choke or advanced knockdown, really puts your opponent off when that purple lightening blasts into them ![]()
TKM
0040 Swords
MFencer
0040 Pike
270/190 Melee/Ranged Defence.

My current template, which if you know how to play your TK is almost unstoppable in PVE and Very strong in PVP.
Teras Kasi Master
Master Pikeman
Master Brawler
Swordsman 0410 (melee Speed tree, and Improved head it, plus i get Improved Armor break as well)
Fencer 0040 - Melee Defense Tree, and blind skills.
With this template, i can effectively lay Stun, Then Intimidate, then Dizzy, and then a Blind, then I armor break, then use Improved Impale/Improved head hit alternatively.
My Vibro lance is decent, (2.5 Speed, 980 Max) and its not uncommon to see 600's or higherflying off of players in PVP with the armor break. I also make sure i always my Center of Being on as well- If that drops, any ranged template will Tear you apart since ranged is much more powerful than Melee fighters without that center. Root will kill you, unless you use center to cut the damage greatly.
With this template, I've managed to beat Master Defender Jedi a number of times (3 or 4, out of about 10 fights). If they do not have force aura (which is supposed to reduce their damage greatly like Force run and is bugged right now- On the contrary, Improved CoB is not supposed to since its Martial arts- it shouldn't) or master healer, I can beat them rather quickly, usually in about 30 seconds once i land that armor break and use impale/improved head hit.
Anyway, template is matter of preference, not exactly one uber template.
I have a choice between two templates:
#1: TKM/Master Pikeman/ Doctor 4xxx
or
#2 TK x4xx (for cob and defenses)/Master Pikeman/Master Doctor
I love tkm/pikeman and doctor. Im leaning for towards the first because doc isnt that great these days. Im more of a group player
so im not concerned with damage that much.
Anyway hope somebody can answer this because im going on in an hour
Thanks Guys
