I have Carbineer as my 4 and final holo profession. I must say that I love it! I have +190 counterattack so I am good now. At master I will have 210 As soon the next patch comes in, I will lose 85 counterattack points, but I will gain all of those cool specials I do hope that they fix HAM costs though. Lol, with 500 in all secondary default stats, I should not incapp myself while using specials without using any armor.

And Scattershot 2 is great, it can be dodged, blocked or counterattacked (even though it still shows on the combat log).

It should read CAN'T be dodged.....

cool, TKA unarmed combo can't be dodged either, but no one uses em anyways haha... Scattershot seem like it's actually used though.

Seriously, you think that Pikeman and then Carbineer is bad on holo-madness?


1) Squad Leader.

2) Dancer..

3) Merchant...

4) A loaded Revolver....

5) Silent.


At least Carbineer and Pikeman are combat classes where you can spend your time in the game DOING SOMETHING. Only good thing about Merchant is that it ends. Same with Dancer, same with Squad Leader.

Thanks for all the replys guys, and....i take it back, carbineers can actualy do some pretty neat stuf, i apologise if i offended you true carbineers but to be honest any elite profession as my holo was a pain, carbineer is nice, i got a nice carbine, its 2.4 speed with 52-348 so it does nice attacks, iv been using Fullauto1 so far, seems to do 500-2000 damage mainly to health. im actualy enjoying i now,



A: I am not a holo grinder....i just want to get my holocron professions out of the way first, so then i can settle into a class i like, if the speed keeps increasing i may keep carbineer !.


B: To the person who said return to my uber class, i never was in one.....i was rifleman 4-3-2-3 i think and i like headshot 3, if carbineer had a high damage concentrated attack like that i would be just as happy, i like attacking 1 pool only, it is 3x more effective.


C: Thanks for those of you who actualy wrote about burst shot1, i was going up the offence tree 4xxx way but i will now take counerinsugency instead.



Thanks alot guys.

Huh? Is it just me or does this not make any sense? Who else but a holo grinder obeys the little blue box?

a hologrinder gets holocrons and grinds out those professions and then proceeds to grind out every other profession until they unlock their slot. he's just saying he's getting the holo-professions out of the way so he can get on to other stuff, not that he's actively pursuing the jedi slot with everything within him....

Since I joined this game, (last summer) I have been using ONLY carbines lol...

I love it!!! Even with the broken moves, high ham cost and other issues you might find along... carbine is a great weapon... It requires alot of thinking, it's not all about spamming a move... most good carbineers knows that.


Pistol is fun but I don't like being that close to someone in a fight...


Rifleman, you have to be far to be effective....


Carbine is good speed and good attacks... I can do up to 1K damage on a player with cripple shot, I think that's good enough.

Actually that would be mindlessly chasing your FSCS after holo-grinding.

I'm a master a pikeman and working on carbineer, and get ready to be shocked.......i've never touched a holocron except to get them out of my inventory as quickly as possible. I absolutely LOVE pikeman and from what i've seen of carbineer i think i'm going to love it also. Lay off the holos a bit and play around with some professions, maybe you'll actually have fun playing the game rather than just grinding through stuff all the time.

hehe...i'm collecting holocrons myself dont plan to ever sell them or use them, i'm hoping to get 30 or so and then make a nice little castle with the up/down commands with little sith holocrons on top of each tower or some such thing...anyway.
