Ranged single/cone KD.
Ranged single/cone PD.
Ranged single/cone Blind/Stun/Dizzy.


Being about to blind/stun/dizzy at range is a good skill in pvp, as is the pd/kd options.


There is no doubt that combat is borked in this game, and professions are unbalanced; however, if all professions acted the same, what would be the point in having the diversity in the first place?

Have you ever eventried high end PvE???


Those stat effects DONT work, the stat effects never stick.


So lets see.... They are almost immune to any damage type we can use on them AND our stat effects will never stick.


Sure, I'm all for diversity but at least give all professions a chance. Yes fencer has the same problem, and they need to get fixed as well, TKA? Well, first of all. Even though they only have kinetic damage they still can do good in PvE/PvP because they are fast and have high damage output, they are also excellent tanks so thats another use they have. However, this is the CARBINEER forum.


This forum is for discussions about our professions, why should we talk about fencer and TKA on the carbineer forum???


And yes, I can admitt that AP2 would be a bit much, but that is beside the point, my point with a new weapon is not that it should be a uber gun. Carbineer need a new damage type, we need to be able to go with a group of people to high-end content and feel like we are not a burden to them.

Darts are used to knockout / stun opponents and animals right......

notice the word stun.

Im betting this will be a cert for master carbineer and will do decent stun damage

youll be like fencer, but with range ! and u can get krayt tissue for cheaper than aklay bones

i bet carbineer is soon goin to be lots of fun and, hell i might pick it up if it goes this direction

just a thought, enjoy




i think BH is getting the Czerka Dart Carbine

if we were going to have it my way then i say the underslung should be blast damage and the dart carbine should either be kinetic or cold. i really don't think a stun carbine would be any good. i really hope we DON'T get one. i want to see blast AP1 or cold AP1, AP2 would be nice for one of the carbines, mayb the allience needler one i thought i saw because it looks like it might have small armor peircing shots. but we don't know when these new guns are coming out, it could be post JTL for all we know, the guns are in the patch 10 files.... not any way to get them.....

Remember, stunning something is different from the actual stun damage in this game


Restraint damage is more compatible with "stunning opponents and animals" than stun damage is


Although, restraint damage wouldn't actually stun opponents in this game either.....go figure...

I don't see how this profession could not be flavor of the month... I picked it up a few days ago with BH and blazed through the BH carbines and still working on Carbineer. This is seriously the most fun with a profession I've ever had with this game. As a former Master Rifleman, I can honestly say this profession may not be as powerful but it's a hell of a lot more fun.

Never argue with an idiot: they'll bring you down to their level, and beat you with experience.

Best line EVAR.


Man, this is exciting. I LOVED carbines as a bounty hunter, but went holo chasing and after finishing merchant (my first and only holo), Iwent with armorsmith and haven't budged from it since.


But man... my carbines are still on my wall, and I consider going BH carbine/carbineer again someday. Stuff like this pushes me towards it. Good times.

I think BH will probably get the Underslung Carbines, It just seems to look like if can be hidden more naturally and matches underhand shot, but I could be wrong
