Was just wondering if anyone has been using TKM/MBH, and if that was working out any good?

Hi !


I'm currently Teras Kasi Novice and Novice Riffleman. What do you think of mastering Riffleman along with TKA ? If it's not a good idea wich other profession should I master as a 2nd profession ? I'm not interested with artisans profession...


I'm waiting for your advice.


Thanks

you can look around and get a feeling for what people like. anything with doc or combat med. 4 x x x is popular.

it all depends on how you want to play. tk and m. rifles gives you the opportunity to have innate armor (never buy armor again) and COB and powerboost as well as high damage output of master rifleman.


you should look around and see what looks interesting to you.

I think that would be a horrible idea. But don't let me dissuade you.

Here's why I think that is a bad idea:

1. Armor:

A. TK armor works fine and will never decay ever.

B. If you put on any kind of armor, you will not be able to use center of being which works great

2. Skills

A. Commando has no specials what so ever. It is intended that you will get commando and some other ranged profession and you use the other professions' specials with the commando weapons.

B. Absolutely none of the specials from TK work with Commando weapons. Melee vs. Ranged

3. Commando sucks

A. As I mentioned before it has no specials. Unless you just really like all the different weapons that commandos use, this profession will probably annoy you very soon after you finish mastering.

B. Grenades suck: They are completely innefective after the CU.


But check it out and make up your own mind. The only reason I've thought this through so much is because I have a friend who was thinking about TK and Commando and I am trying to talk him out of it. The thing about the hybrid ranged profs (Squad Leader, or BH, or Commando) is that they seem aimed to be used with the weapon specific professions (rifles, carbs, pistols) and so they don't provide many bonuses to a melee combatant. The CU pushes template "matching" more than ever. The melee professions compliment each other much more than before (pistols x x 4 x used to be part of the melee uber looting template) and the same goes for ranged.


Ultimately, you have to decide what is fun for you and that will take experience and time.
