are you gonna switch from rifles or carbs to pistols?


figure that for pve rifles or carbs will be fine but against jedi that minimum range modifier is gonna make those two things all but useless.


I think I may switch to BH/Smuggler with a touch of pistols.



Funny that they "forgot" about min range when they changed things. who in their right mind would have been using pistols even if they were master pistols I think a decent DLR rules the day over any short gun.

Uh...please post where a dev said this is being changed...I've searched through the devtracker and there's nothing reguarding min range modifiers. If they do they better go back to the old combat system, or doing so will screw up ranged prof's even more.

screw it up? it was never intended to work this way. kinda ruins the point of having different weapons.


The post I got this from was in a dev chat and stated that each weapon was intended to have a maximum and minimum range and currently this is not working and should be fixed prior to the release of Trials of Obi Wan.



what this means to me is that you will get a penalty for being closer than your minimum range.



Come on we all know that rifles are not supposed to work from 0-60m while pistols only work from 0-25.. kinda pointless isnt it?








Do you even play the same game we do?


Rifles = 0-65m

Pistol = 0-35m


As a MPist, I can run faster than a Rifleman, and I have a root and a KD. He won't stay out of my range for very long. (Cause I can always whip out the old Laser Rifle)
