Personally, if you're good and have the right stuff, Carbineer w/o BH is better. You could invest in capping ranged/melee defense like TAFirehawk who has the best template IMO. Wildshot + Fullauto is nearly as good as confusion/sprayshot.I love BH for other reasons though. I love hunting jedi and I love having options. I'm certified for so many weapons its nuts. I'm offensivly as powerful as a Master Carbineer and probably more effective with pistols than a master pistoleer w/o BH, offensivly of course.

Its hard to tell what the best Template is.... Diffrent Opinions and Diffrent Styles of playing and out come of all that.

I've spend over 50mil on Carbineer.

carbineer without bh can be effective so long as you have + 25 speed attachments and other attachments. It takes millions of credits to be viable pure carbineer and you'll still lose to a rifleman that knows how to pvp (meaning 80-90% comp with stun layer + 50-60% PSG + 45% synsteak, spamming headshot 3) while your doing 8-15 random dps to them, they're doing 100 or so mind damage to you . against certain profs though its great

not against rifleman we cant..no one can. They have far more powerful weapons than all the other profs..a krayt jawa or dxr6b will always do above 50dps, prolly more like 100 or so if its decent, and thats mind damage. whereas a krayt carbine will still only do 20 damage or so against v.good armour

my 680 damage laser carbine does considerably less damage than my run-of-the-mill well made/decent sliced 720 damage T21 ( both puped). also a nice 400-500 damage jawa does well over 5x my carbines damage. sure you can get carbines that are more powerful than rifles..but carbines made with the same tissues as a jawa or dxr6b, the rifles will win hands down

Yes the key is comparing apples to apples......just like picking a DXR6 vs. a Laser......

Quite frankly a Carbineer in almost ANY form with ANY armor/weapons/buffs must pick on a weaker opponent to win. An equally prepared Rifleman will ALWAYS beat an equally prepared Carbineer....PERIOD.

Not True i dunno where the hell you come with this statement TAfirehawk you forget the most importand thing here.Rifleman Dabble in what? The only Dabble Rifleman i got problems with is Rifle Dabble in Doctor.

So stop with the Period **edit**we all play on diffrent Servers and Dunno each other.

rifleman can dabble in anything they want..if they're m.rifleman/Mdoc then there is absolutely zero chance of a carbineer killing them, so long as the doc knows what hes doing (unless of course you have uber dot carbines). A carbineer's dps is far, far less than that of a rifleman. While your doing 10-20 damage to him..he'll be doing at least 50-100 mind damage to you (thats with 45% synsteak and 50-60% PSG). Rifleman have a dps far greater than any other prof

Dizzy, posture down, problem solved. And if you are comparing firing a carbine without specials to a rifle with specials then yea of course you'll lose. Just have your wits about you, a knockdown isn't the only way to get them flopping you know. Also, never forget the blue milk. It comes in handy when you need a mind pool regeneration and it's devestating to the morale of your opponent.

The smart Rifleman.....yes I know those two words don't belong together.....picks up Fencer just like I have with Carbineer.....PD defense is more than enough to STOP ActionShot and Suppression Fire.

The way you beat a Rifleman happens soley on the Rifleman....not being "smart"

Iebas, most riflemen I encounter are stupid. They'll use jawa with HS3 always. Even with PSG, Stun helm, and steak, doing almost neglible damage, they won't change to T21 or use strafeshot2 (which is killer btw). There's only one rifleman that has ever used Dizzy/PDon me. Well maybe all the smart riflemen are Imp so thats why I've been beating riflemen on our server.

OUCH.....

Imagine if us "smart" Carbineers switched to Rifleman.....WOW.....
