for starters if i chose the wrong form of affective/effective forgive me i always get the two mixed up.

That being said in unlocking klingon last night i did a few ground pvp matches and tried out the melee aspect, it seemed decent once i got personal shields down or when i had someone else with me. But, and this may just be a symptom of the cc overload, often times i just got rocked. Im just curious what its like at later levels?

I like rolling with the sniper rifle since its special does a lot of damage and softens people up for the kill but at least at early levels it seems to me, as with most games, ranged has the advantage.

Kurn the klingon engineer uses it with brutal effectiveness. I fought him and he was a huge pain in the ass.

He uses weapon malfunction and bat... I don't want to sound like an arrogant ****, but I don't get beaten often 1 vs 1 in ground combat, and he beat me more than once.
