I posted this in the Commando forums and will try my Smuggler brethren as well...
Alright, let's just talk numbahz (as they say in my hood).
Let's say I'm going to be a:
Master Smuggler
Master Commando
TK 4000
Pistoleer 3000 (pistoleer has a mess of defense as well, folks! For you all looking for abilities).
My Defense Numbahz would be:
MeleeDefense +155
Ranged Defense+130
Pistol Defense+30
Heavy W. Def.+50
Unarmed Def.+40
*We are talking about going without armor so forget it exist for the moment...
Now, I assume that when I have nothing in my hand my defense is my general defenses plus my unarmed defense:
Melee +195
Ranged +170
with a pistol in hand:
Melee +185
Ranged +160
and with a heavy weapon:
Melee +205
Ranged +180
This would lead me to believe that my best defense would happen while I had a heavy weapon in hand.
Okay, NOW let's see what difference it would make if I say, Mastered TK instead of Commando (I'll be Commando 0400 everything else remains the same)-
MeleeDefense+150
Ranged Defense+135
Pistol Defense+30
Heavy W. Def.+10
Unarmed Def.+40
This would mean:
Unarmed:
Melee +190
Ranged +175
with a pistol in hand:
Melee +180
Ranged +165
and with a heavy weapon:
Melee +160
Ranged +140
Now my best defense would take place when I was unarmed. BUT NOTICE!
I had better defense in the previous template with my Heavy Weapon than I would Unarmed in this temp.
Does that mean I could run around without armor with the first temp?

melee def and range def stack from all the proffesions doesnt matter what weapon or no weapon you have in your hand think you got confused with the special skill mod's
unarmed def
and heavyweapon def
pistol def
they dont stack it's what ever weapon you have.....
also inorder too take advantage of no armor you would have too be a TKM too get the +60 unarmed armor if you just dabble in TKA lets say too get meditate... you would be much better off wearing your assalt armor from commando becouse of your midigation at master....
a master TKA has +75 unarmed def not +40giving him a +225according to your numbershope that cleared up a few things for you....
