Ok I've heard that carbine sucks in PvP...so how is this possible? I had full composite 80%+ on. Master pikeman/4404 cm. Some carbineer challenges me to a duel..mind you he has only mastered carbine so I thought him a noob. I had buffs and eveything. I let him go out 40m to start....he kds and dizzies me....thats ok. What happens next...1600 damage a shot! I didnt know any weapon did this much damage in PvP...are all u carbineers this godly or did he have some double sliced legendary thing? If you are all this good...damn I'm never dueling one of you again.
Dont be surprised i once beat a player in my Server who was a Master Pikeman/Master Fencer and was buffed and Armored and i was only buff and no armor my currebt template was BH 3400 and Carbineer 4440 and Nov Medic ( this was before BH Sp reduction)! And funny part was he ended calling me exploiter!

"At this point in the game, anyone playing a carbineer is an extremely new player still experimenting or a die-hard carbineer that will rock your socks if you are not well prepared. "
Or is a 90% PVE die-hard carbineer who wont really rock the socks off of anyone in PVP due to lack of proper preparation for it. Then again, I dont really play overt at all, so it doesnt matter.

A well-made laser carbine with a min/max damage powerup in the hands of an expert carbineer is exceeding dangerous.

Not only no ranged mitigation, but usually no terrain negotiation either, which if you are a carbineer/BH plays into your hands quite nicely.
I've beaten fully buffed and armored FOTM melee rebels camping the emperor's retreat before unarmored and unbuffed, because I could run circles around them with my terrain negotiation.

well i had a fun duel today in pvp
my current template is BH 3400/ Master Carbineer/ Medic 2040/ Novice Brawler
I started out at 6m against a TKM. Right off the bat i land a dizzy from my confusion shot, then land a KD with Fire KD..then i spam cripplingshot witih my krayt e11...dead in like 5 secs
next i duel a jedi hunter he was Master Fencer/ BH 3040/ Pistoleer 0440 (i think not to sure on this last one)...so we start off at 20m...he fires torso shot at me and hits, i start on fire..i land a confusion then a fire KD, start to spam crippling, but he gets up, i use scattershot 2 on him..hurts him good, then use Underhand shot on him, he is finally KD/dizzy so i spam burstshot 2 and crippling...incapped
Next i duel a Master Swordsman/ Master Brawler/ Doctoer 4030...he lands a few good head hits (hes capped with a 750dmg acklay PH) i land a confusion dizzy, he cures it, i land another, then b4 he can cure it i land a firekd...i switch to my dxr6 and spam crippling shot, he gets up with 70 health left...heals himself with a stim D..i do another KD/dizzy and then i stick a stun from FAS2 on him, hes on the ground and incapped in 10 secs.
Im loving this template...only thing is i have no def..im all offense

^^^^^^
That my exact template too, I love it. The only people (other than CMs and jedi's duh) that give me trouble are those with over 100 defense vs posture down or dizzy. I usually just stick a poison DOT on them and try to kite them or keep them intimidated.

yeap I sometimes get insulted or so cause I run into buildings and stuff, but hey, we're ranged fighters, I mean we're not supposed to stand at 0m and spam specials, if we have terrain and buildings why almost nobody use em ?

A little off target, but I had a max powered laser carbine and I used Crippleshot and hit a Malkloc Bull for 10832 points while it was KD. In one shot!
I thought it was some kind of error, but then about 5 minutes later, I tried to hit another Malkloc for 8832 points but he dodged it.

I am all Carbine. Master Carbineer and BH 0400. I PVP alot, both 1 vs. 1 and supporting people in raids and defense, which I am most suited for. I have killed a jedi, by myself with a carbine. It was a lesser jedi and the battle was long and drawn out...luckily I have some medic so it kept me going. I have been carbineer for about 6-7 months now. It was hard at first to figure out how to handle a carbine, but once you get your shots down and get the supplies you need (food, armor, buffs), a carbineer will hold his own. I have dueled and/or fought all templates, from FOTM or TKMs or Commandos or BH and have beat them all. I have taken my whoopin's too. But, my favorite duel was with is one guy, TKM/Fencer sort, and he trashed and trashed carbineer in front of my guildies andthen he challenged me to a duel. As I like to say, I knocked him down and he didn't get up. Hehe.

I like carbineer, But i can't use it as a main profession. I like to use it as a support. Say i see an over Imp/reb at 64 meters. I spam him with Full Auto 2, get him blinded/dizzied/stunned, then switch to the sword and go for the mind. The main problem that makes me not want to use carbine as a main prof, is the speed. At master carbine, you get like 50 speed ( i think ) either way, It's not nearly fast enough to use it effectivly. When you land a crippling shot, the target probably already healed himself before you are able to fire off another shot.
I did manage to land a scattershot2 on a jedi once. Very devestating. I think i hit him for 400 damage. that was the first and last time i hit a jedi. Ranged Vrs jedi is a joke. Sorry if I offended anyone. Sometimes my shots don't even register. I can only imagine that it's the server laughing at me for using ranged against a jedi.

I dueled a friend today.
He was Master Fencer / Master Doctor
He started the duel with a dizzy, i countered with Ithorian Mist, then he tryed to posture change down...worked.
He sat there and beat me with a Stun Bat while i didnt have my stun armor on. he did a grand total of 100dmg in that beating then i landed confusion shot and Fire KD...hes down and dizzied..i spam crippling shot on him for awhile...im doing around 400-1k dmg in pvp...incap him
After i /enduel and heal him, he asks what type of carbine i was using, i said !45-416 enhanced krayt e11...then he ask what dmg type, i said energy ap1...he then proceeds to say that us carbineers need to be nerfed becuase i was doing too much dmg to him lol i laughed my ass off
lol i laughed my ass offoh btw, while he was down he was stunned as well..i must have used FAS2 or wildshot or something

I bet your Laser is a bit over 617 max damage

Actually, the max damage of my laser, without a power up is 318. I think I was using a power up at the time which would max the power at 419.
