Thread: Thinking of dropping Master Carbs
This is from a fairly new Bh:
well i went master carbs.
Then i mastered the BH proffession and like it Pve
but noticed when i dueled that something was lacking ... nothing i can really put my finger on but i had lots of skills
and only used a few! after respeccing to MCM i find that i use all the skills on my 2 quickbars and i kinda like that
i got so many viable options

i am currently working on master bh im 3444 bh with master carbineer and medic 0420. I have that same feeling the only shots i use from carbs other than the recoveries are advancede rapid fire and...............actually i think thats it. i must admit with my weapon i have a pretty damn good rate of fire but something is lacking you are correct but much like everyone else i have no idea what lol.
the shots that use most vs npc mind you are these .... underhand,crit,torso and maybe eye and confusion but rarely i replace that with advanced rapid fire. this sux cause im basically mastering carbineer for 1 skill/ ability
I'm thinking of re-grinding and dropping MCarbs and replacing with MCM, but then there is either Carb 0400 or Pistol 0004. Some say root isn't worth it as it doesn't stick all the time. *shrug*
I even thought of going MBH, MPistols, CM 4000 but not sure how that temp does against full templated jedi's.
How much of a difference in damage is using carbs over pistols??, because numbers wise on the weapons themselves I don't see that much of a difference.
So if you value healing more so than defence and accuracy then drop it.

MCarbs offers 2 great high-end att (adv rapid fire and adv leg shot)which are close to critical shot. Plus a more damaging kd (adv charge shot) doubling the dmg of underhand shot. while dropping a master ranged, whether it be pistols, rifles or carbs your sacrificing defence and acc that the mastery grants you. Also Mcarbs offers good AoE shots that are high damaging and a AoE snare that is very useful in group pvp.
So if you value healing more so than defence and accuracy then drop it.
It's not just the healing, it's all the other MCM attacks like thyroid rupture, hemmohage, traumatize, poison, fire, disease, ED, etc. If I do MCM and carb 0400, I still get the imp leg shot and snare as well as imp rapid fire but like you said I will lose melee/ranged defenses and accuracy. I will still have the damage shots though and couldn't I just eat accuracy foods like deutreium pyro and the like?
Also isn't it true that all stats max at 250...meaning that if my accuracy is only at 150 and i drink pyro which adds over 100 accuracy..then i'll be at the cap. Is this right?
