for pve its great.


for pvp/jedi hunting, pistols is the hardest to use, especially vs jedi with aura + defenderinnate armor. If you're still learning how to pvp without mcm, try rifleman first.


You'll also want a damage capped, under 72 SAC cost, under 1.8 speed pistol.

i just done the same thing, pistols seems fine for pvp and pve, not hunted with it yet but i have every confidence in it.


Heres how I look at it.


CM has great de-buffs, helps keep em at bay, but you lack the extra fire powerto damage them, I say this as you have no control over fire/poison damage. Say, you see him with health so low you could finish him off b4 he heals but you cant as your not fast enough on the guns, well the fire may not tick at that moment so he heals again.


With pistols or anyother, you have the fire power which you decide when he gets hit more so than mcm. You dont have the de-buffs, but but it balances out really, de-buffs and less fire power/accuracy etc or no de-buffs and ... urrrgh, this is just confusing now - you get the picture tho right?

I'm almost done grinding to MP. I used to be a MBH/MCM but didn't have many Jedi-kills, so after about two weeks of trying that temp against Jedi, and only 2 wins, I decided to change to MP for the better firepower. Once I'm done the grind I'm gonna get a nice puped featherweight and a ranged arm. The it should work VERY well. MR is just as good as MP, it's just about what you like and don't like.

I'm a MBH Mpistol 4000cm. Yes its harder. You will be a weardown template not an outright killer. You will have to be better and faster than the Jedi you will have to use root, kd, intimidate, disarm etc at the right times. Certain templates can simply absorb your damage (think aura+force armor) and they can stand there all day and not die. If you are a fast thinker, with great pvp skills and excellent equipment than this template can work for you.

I really dont wanna sound like a git, but if you cant kill Jedi with mcm you will most probably suffer far worse with pistols.

That is, unless you have been pistols and bh b4 and have been successful with it, if not, prepare for a shock.

Yep I don't have CM either, just medic xx2x. I use clothes that add +25 HE, a 110 Med droid, and Citros snow cake for another 40 HE if the going gets rough. Haven't had problems. Of course I have the obligatory Ruby B and stim D.


Personally I love carbines. I have had both rifles and pistols before.

Im master pistols and I find it nice as you have root to keep them at distance, then disarming shot for when they root you and close distance, oh and intimidate which reduces the amount of damage they can do to you... oh theres that warning shot too thatreduces their defense by 80.....not to mention combined with BH you have 6 high damage chainable shots.


Want me to go on? Get yourself a really nice pistol aka Featherweight FWG5 with decent accuracy mods and SAC/Damage capped with a 100% speed slice...


And well.... you'll have fun oh 8.1k energy armour break sliced armour too.






Pretty much hit it right on the head there
