Hybrid Build

I think a better hybrid build would look like this.

 

You don't need 3/3 Burst Volley. Because of the internal cooldown in terms of DPS per point, each point is worth significantly less DPS than the previous point and the third point is almost worthless. 2/3 is really all you should put into it. 2/2 Slick Shooter comes at the cost of 1% crit to all abilities. You'll want to put 1/2 Slick Shooter to get up the tree, but 1% extra crit for Trick Shot, Speed Shot and Charged Burst isn't worth -1% crit for all of the other abilities you rely on for damage. So those 2 points (1 from Slick Shoot and 1 from Burst Volley) are better invested in No Holds Barred.

To be fair, those two skills (Slick Shooter and No Holds Barred) are very close in value. If you find yourself relying more on the "other" abilities than on Speed Shot and Trick Shot, you might see slightly better return from No Holds Barred, but it's still pretty much a toss-up. (You can see my calculations attached to this post at MMO-Mechanics.com/SWTOR.) In this way, they did a really great job at nerfing No Holds Barred to be similar in value to other skills.
