Im a master rifleman, working on TKA (3/1/2/4) and was wondering if that wasa good combo? If it helps, Im a wookiee and I always roll out with full buffs, brandy, canape, moun, and 59% resistance kinetic armor (being rich is nice) and with my rifle alone things die fast. I am aiming to go after killing large numbers of NS's as a jedi took me out once and got me hooked. Would that be a good combo? I only PVE and I try going after tough mobs because I like the loot, to me its sort of a status symbol when I have nice loot decorating my house (cant wear any of it, but I can still show it off with style 
). Any feed back that is productive is very helpful. Thank you.

I'm a master rifleman/TKM and I love it. TKM is a great suplement for rifleman. You get to the same high damage output of a rifleman and you don't die when the melee professions come up on you because you have melee mitigation and a high melee defense. Not to mention FOW is one of my most beloved hotkeys now. It's also nice to just meditate your poison, disease, and wounds away from those pesky CM's. Also, if you get a whiner that says "quit running away" you can just walk up to them and beat them down then finish them off with your rifle again while they are trying to get back up.

As far as armor. Go ahead and get the best you can get. I have 85% base. This come with a high encumberance but it's not even noticed after a buff. When I'm in a major PvP battle (5 on 1 or more) I almost completely fill up on mind enhancing foods. I usually drink 2 brandies (400+) and 2 canapes (600+) for these battles. I also have three hotkeys I reserve just for more mind when I need it. You can pop up to 3 canapes at a time so if you need to regenerate your mind you can eat the last one. I keep the brandy up so when I get half full again and I'm in trouble I can take another drink. Then my third hot key is ofcourse moun gold. I try not to use it since it has a downer but I found when you are going to die, taking a moun gold will keep you in the game long enough to kill a few more imps. If you know you are going to be fighting a fencer rifleman they have stun. Get a 40% stun protection which helps a lot. You biggest threat of couse will be other rifleman as they can attack your critical mind pool. ALWAYS take out the rifleman first. Even if there is a CM he's going to kie anyways, he will already have done his thing by the time you get to him but the rifleman will take advantage of your weakend mind.
Brandy, canape, moun gold.....food for thought.

Since you only PVE this template will rock! The only problem will be the Elders because they have 100% kenetic resist. Other than that, your set. You can hit mind shots with your riffle and if they dicide to come in close, just switch to TKA and keep using unarmed head hit. Some people will tell you that the TKA mind shot sux but I disagree. I can compete with ANY swordsman out there. Sure I don't hit as hard but the dmg per second is more. The only thing is watch your mind. powerboost, get brandy and some other mind food and have muon close by just in case.
On a side note, you can add swordman 0404 to that master TKA and master Riffleman. The ultimate at-st killer and elder killer.
Good luck.

Yeah, and as a master rifleman it doesn't matter if something has 100% kinetic. There aren't any kinetic rifles. Also I have found that at master rifleman don't really need to drop your rifle when something closes in on you. You natural accuracy at that level will out way any penalty you get for being at close range. Sure you may take a little more damage close combat with a rifle but good armor and buffs will make up for it and your HAM bar will almost never move. Besides you have melee mitigation 3 so just stand your ground and use your hard hitting rifles to anhilate any target in a matter of seconds.

I'm, a Master Rifleman/Master TKA and I love it. I did throw a few other things in there, but overall that is an excellent template. I find that unless I'm trying to solo a NS Elder I use TKA for almost all PvE and Rifleman for almost all PvP. The major exception to this is that I prefer to duel using TKA, but its mostly against other melee professions.
