Thanks for the info guys Anyone have like, crazy success with a hybrid healing build? I was talking to a 50 operative who was running surgical probe/concealment, and told me he was essentially unkillable unless focused by 3 people, does decent damage in small skirmishes, and always gets ton of medals.

Hey, new to the boards, thanks for reading post yadda yadda- In WoW I loved stealth and played rogue for a long time, but after playing a healer in PvP, I loved the idea of just being ridiculously hard to kill 1v1, while slowly killing my opponent with small damage. I want to carry over both of these aspects to Operative. My first question is, can a hybrid spec like this work? Or is Operative on its own just far to squishy to expect to outheal damage from 1-2 people? Now the specs. I was looking at two, one taking Surgical Probe and the other taking Culling. They look like this: 18/0/23 and 22/0/19 The idea behind both of these specs is that I can just generate crazy amounts of TA through Medical Engineering procs, shivs, and the occasional Kolto Injection and then I can dump them into either Surgical Probe or Culling. With Culling I'd have my 2 DoTs on all the time while pulling TA's from ME. Also the spec has quite a bit of kiting ability between the Corrosive Grenade slow and Sever Tendon. I feel like the damage output would be great and the survivability decent, but I feel like I'd be energy starved most of the time. With Surgical Probe I think that the survivability is far higher and energy would be higher, but I'm worried that my lack of damage would leave me reliant on my teammates, and I really want to be able to hold my own. I guess my big question is can this spec put out enough damage to remain threatening to take 1v1 or even 2v1? Which spec do you think is more viable? Finally, a few questions about point placement within the trees. Which 2 are best between Chem-resistant Inlays, Endorphin Rush, or Evasive Imperative? I'm leaning away from Evasive Imperative, but with the lack of mobility increased movement speed sounds really useful. If anything else looks off in the trees, feel free to let me know. Thanks in advance!
