1st. I use three usually, FAS2 and Charge and Cripple, and i'm one of the best carbineers on my server. you got a problem? you people used to be the worst profession, now your whiny kids who want more. I was satisfied with Publish 7, and so are the DEVs. they dont care about you any more, they fixed you. Look at BH for christs sake. 92 skill points to Master Carbineer andI own a MBH, which takes 217 skill points
2nd. Too bad. its stupid and childish to think you can control who becomes a Carbineer. Some people are actually trying to preserve the viability of the Carbine as a PvP weapon, and you must be either blind or stupid to see how we have no chance at the moment compared to the current PvP professions
As long as we get some more variety, like the other professions

And it is ChargeShot2
BTW, doesn't it suck they took away our pretty sigs......
yeah i noticed my typo after i posted lol. went to edit but the HTML was all screwy
did you notice that i ripped off your sig? did it last night but couldn't get the red box to work. hope you don't mind
I don't mind a bit and yes I noticed it earlier......too bad they took away that nice pretty RED 
its stupid that armor has gotten as high of stats that is has... i truly believe to get those kid of stats should be a rare thing.. like ris armor is rare... only a few shall have it.. the few that actually take the time to get it... and chance that you can actually get it.. everyone always will try and go with what profession is best.. everyone will end up fencer/tka orcm or rifleman... everyone is trying ti hit the mind now because with buffs... you dont have a weapon powerful enough to eat away at someone's health who you miss over and over.. their health regens before you hit again... the only reason someone is actually incapping on the mind is either no helm, no mind buff (secondaries recharge rates), or is just not pvp oriented.. armor has gotten waaay out of hand... people buy credits on ebay then but 10 sets of top quality armor then slicem till every peice has a nice effect slice... ive seen base get to 90% on wanderhome... ive seen so called looted exceptional with worse stats than can be made.. its rediculus.
im sorry my carbineer friends.. but this is why its so hard to pvp with a carbine.. a pistoleer/fencer with a genosian with 400 max damage and eyeshot shoots three shots before the carbine gets off one.. what do you think the outcome will be?

You are absolutely right, I have been calling for an armor nerf for about 2 months now....but what do I know....
There's nothing wrong with the costs. Take off all your armor, get novice medic and heal yourself or get buffed. It does get boring using the same 3 boring types of attacks. I would vouch for anything different. It seems (to me) Carbineer is something to be avoided. Perhaps maybe not new types of attacks but different kinds of weapons would bring more players out of being an overused profession and be a Carbineer.

i'd kinda want carbineer to stay exactly like it is rather than become an overpowered fotm..

you guys are saying you can get buffed and HAM cost is not an issue, but IMHO I beleive that we should have a weapon we can pick up and duel with and just shoot a few creatures WITHOUT having to get freaking buffed so we dont kill ourselves fighting womp rats!
My DH17 Short Carbine works great unbuffed, not sure what you are talking about here. Of course I have to use Stim B's and not spam specials 100% of the time, but this is how the NEW HAM SYSTEM WILL BE.....mark my words....
There have been too many comments from the Devs on using Tactics and not spamming Specials.....just wait.....its coming.....
