Carbineer Archive

yeah i too can cain sum up when pvping , i use all the legshots but when i pvp i use spice and armour and of course buffed up (mind aswell)............................. i think the trick is the method of attacks you use cos i have spoken to a few people on this board and they all say carbiner is crap but i love the proffession it may have a slow attack rate and the ham costs are extreme but hey half the time 4/6 legshots will do enough damage to their action pool for u to kill urm

The first guy I fought was in a full set of composite armor. For some reason you guys have a tuff time at pvp, can I ask are there any good carbineer pvp. Am I just getting replies from a bunch of noobs, because I did great in fighting these guys. Jesus does anyone even like this game anymore.

First of all don't assume a pure carbineer is even half as good as an BH/Carbineer unless you spent millions on skilltapes. I'm not surprised you were able to beat people with your template and I know some people that do very well in pvp as a BH/Carbineer.

/agree

BH/Carbineer is nothing like a pure Carbineer in PvP.....apples and oranges here.....

I really love it as soon as people don't get the favorable response that they really want - that they begin to throw attacks around.

This is a game guys, lets avoid the attacks.

they aren't the same but the premise is pretty similar. I have seen both never actually played a BH/Carbineer though pure and unspoiled Master Carbineer here,i would like to know what is so different. Especially with the new patch.

Carbineers have trouble with 1v1 PvP and always will, that isnt going to change, unless you guys really want us to be like riflemen. BH/Carbineer is merely a shot at making a non-uber profession uber, and there is no need. By mixing those class you are wasting skill points merely for some accuracy and speed bonuses, and i imagine with the new combat balance speed will be fixed to be equal, so it is simply a matter of time before that issue is resolved.

Whats the problem, I mean im doing master carbineer and throwing in bh skills to make me better. Instead of saying bh/carbineer is bad why dont you actually try playing it, the extra speed and accuracy helps.

Is it just speed and accuracy? I don't find a problem with missing, or with speed.

What is so radically different about the two? Can anyone tell me, or is it just the speed/accuracy stacking bonuses everyone wants?

Well if you actually read the board people who are master carbineer/bh do better in pvp. And this is what master carbineers say.

I've been a carbineer since launch. It's nothing special in PvP. it can't hold its own against most of the other professions still.

It is no good by itself, and even a BH/carbineer will get owned by dizzy/KD. I myself was not effective in PvP until i did swordsman, and since defense stacking is gone well out with that.

just my 2 credits tho.

Try fighting a rifleman in 80% comp and see how easy it is. Carbineers are great for support to other proffesions but solo they don't last long enough to deal the dmg required to take down a fully buffed and armored player. And since you are an BH/Carbineer you don't have to worry about speed either.
