Specialization talent combination

i want to make a Wookie Doctor/Marauder. He can bash your brains in and heal you up.

That's exactly what one of our players did. He's melee focused with two vibroknives. He might switch to a vibrosword though.

What i want to do is get pressure point talent with brass knuckles. Then I would beable to make Brawl attacks that do Brawn + Medicine + weapon damage; which can inflict wounds or strain damage, has the knockdown and disorent 4 qualities. Lets just say ouch.

You should go with Shock Gloves instead :P .

Merc Soldier + Politico: Ultimate War Leader/Tactician/Commissar. I use a Maneuver to use Scathing Tirade. I suffer 2 strain to use another Maneuver to use Inspiring Rhetoric. I use my Action to use Improved Field Commander. Everyone recovers some strain, gets boost dice, enemies take strain and get setback dice, and then everyone gets maneuvers or actions.

"First one to cut off that wampa bait's head and slurp his eyeballs out of his sockets gets a month's worth of pay! Vape that kriffing scum!"

You can't use weapons with the Pressure Point Talent...

You can only use your fists.... but with the Doctor Talents "Pressure Point" and "Anatomy Lessons", and 3x the Maurauder Talent "Feral Strength", you'll do Brawn + Medecine + Intellect +3 (Feral Strenght) unsoakable damage.... almost as good as a Lightsaber :P

My character is a mandalorian that is from clan wren. Armorer, Soresu, hermit. He is the mando that makes and keeps up the armors and other stuff. So he's like a smart tanky mando. But his offense is lacking so I'm going niman disc next to help even him out.

If he's lacking in offense, I wouldn't go Niman, I'd go either Ataru Striker (particularly if he/she has a relatively high Agility) or Sentry . Both are offense-centric specializations, and the latter still grants a Force Rating upgrade. Another option, if the character has a high Cunning is Shien Expert. It's still defensive, but also has a strong offense through it's ability to immediately counterattack .

Shien Expert is the best specialisation to combine with Soresu Defender. You'll have the strongest defence possible with a lightsaber with 6 levels in Parry with both advanced and supreme and 6 levels in Reflect with both advanced and supreme. And being able to immediately counter-attack will give you a very strong offence.
