Come on fellas... Hook me up.

I suggest Rifleman for Mind bleeding.

Dont forget to take some scout Exploration for open areas

Hope the topic got people in here . I'm going master tka, and doctor 0/4/3/0. I figure I have enough points leftover to get one tier of an advanced ranged profession. My question is this: What should I choose, a line in pistoleer, carbineer, or smuggler? And which one? My vision is to be able to have a nice attack/bleed to do some good damage while a mob charges, and in pvp to maybe have a ranged knockdown that would let me rush in to drop some melee bombs. I posted this in the ranged forums, but maybe you guys will have a better idea of what would compliment a master tka best. Any suggestion?

BTW, I'm banking on clothing enhancement (terrain negotiation) working by the time I'll need the scout points elsewhere.

Thanx

My recomendation is forget pistol, by the time ur close enough to use the pistol...you'd be better off layin the smack down TKA style. I'd vote for carbineer or rifle. both have good range and a few nice specials you can use to lay some extra pain on your enemy before you close for kung-fu time. take a look at the specials they get and then ask ppl who use em how good they are and what they do to make the best decision.

Umm don't expect to hit anything with rifle while you're closing, rifle accuracy isawful pre master and pretty poor even at master now.

However the bleeds you can get with a good laser rifle are amazing.

You want a pistol for the health bleeds. TKA hits health the most.

Not sure if you would have enough points but I have novice smuggler for the Feign death. It is 11 skill points just for feign death so rather pricy but it is a great skill to have. Especially as I am a CH too; invaluable when taming and things get ugly.

Pistoleer Techniques. You get health bleeds, pretty powerful range attacks, and crazy +KD and posture down mods.

yes pistoleer.

health bleeds is in line with the stats we TKA's hit. I often go incap and still get a kill b/c of the novice pistoleer bleed i pulled a mob with

Thanks for the help fellas. Im still not sure... The way i see it now is if I go Carbine 0/0/0/2, I get the suppresion fire fromactionshot 2, KD from charge 1, two stackable bleeds (they hit action though) and have room for one more box to use for accuracy (considering i can't hit squat with a carbine so far). If i go pistoleer 0/0/4/0, i get two good health bleeds, the great speed and accuracy of the pistol, and some great fast attacks to do nice damage while a mob closes in. If I go smuggler 0/0/4/0, I get a KD and the hardest hitting pistol attack in the game. Panic shot may get fixed, and I could feign death. Only one bleed though, and I'm not sure the delay after last ditch is worth it. It's been drivin me batty tryin to figure it out, especially since I need to make the decision (unarmed xping with a good ranged weapon as backup is alot easier). I think my main concern is PVP effectiveness,which is why I'm leanin towards a "KD/charge in and do some serious stompin" option. Am I being too optimistic/ignorant to think this would be a boombastic tactic? Well, waddya think? Did I sum it up fairlywell? Man, this is a tough call, escpecially considering a patch could change everything.

Thanx
