Carbineer Archive

i was pvping didnt counter once

as master carbineer, i counter attack against an average level enemy (stormtrooper for example)about 1 out of every 5 times im hit if i remember correctly from the combat log.

so yes, the mod is working

I have +105 Counter Attack at Master Carbineer (I have +25 in attachments, just havn't used them yet :smileyvery-happy. I also have +52 ranged defense

Last night I went to some Rebel PC bases in a city on Dantooine (Radiant server). They had three bases and I just kept going back and forth while they spawned.

Rebel shoots at you and misses
Rebel hits you
Rebel shoots at you but you counter attack

This is PvE against White Con Rebel NPCs... so it works for me.

I havn't done much PvP, but against a MBH+some medic, I countered or he missed 1/2 of the time. Keep in mind though, they don't have very good accuracy with their weapons compared to other Elite professions that focus on one weapon. I'm thinking I'll counter 1/5 of the time against an Elite profession, and they may miss a few, too.

I saw a Master TKA counterattacking my hits while holding a Knuckler, so he had to have the novice swordman tree. He never once switched to sword. I thought you couldn't stack them.

He was maybe Centered ( CoB ) or counterattacked because there is always a change ( even small )to counter an attack..well, many possibilities and you didn't gave a lot od details ( combat log, template etc ). Btw, Carbineer defence skill is Counterattack as well.

Note : as a master TKA/Carbineer I counter a lot under CoB, more than when I was a pure TK.

TK's don't get dodge, block or couterattack as specific skills. We get Defensive Acuity, which is a combination of all 3 and gives us a chance to do any one of them, not a high chance though. At TKM it's +65 if I'm not mistaken. Unfortunately it's pretty borked atm so you won't see it workingoften. This is why you see TK complaints about COBnot working, it isn't COB that's broken, it's defense acuity.

You must have been lucky to see it

Center of Being lets you evade, block and counter attack. Not that often though.
