Equally satisfying is outdamageing TKMs and MHSs at Fort Tusken for looting rights. All I had to do was speed cap Scatter Shot 2 with a plane jane (as in not Krayted or made with FFSs) laser carbine. The TKM said to me, with what seemed to be respect... "Wow, your a carbineer? I thought Carbneers sucked, you kick ass!" What a great feeling that was.

The great thing about carbineers is it weeds out all the annoying 1337 dudes. We're not totally useless like many people think. It takes some thinking to be profieicnt. The bad apples leave and become riflemen or melee or something like that. I love carbines. Nothing is more satisfying than killing a FOTM build. Welcome to the club.
I've oft times wondered, what is FOTM?

Flavor of the Month. It refers to professions that people tend to flock to because of their "uberness" compared to other professions, commonly due to unballance in the game. These people tend to drop the profession foranother when another profession gets a fixor their current profession gets nerfed (or even fixed as the case seems to be with fencer), as they want to remain "uber" and are not willing to stick it out in a "lesser" profession.

Yeah if you can speed cap scatter 2 on a damage sliced laser you can outdamage everyone except MHS with speed tapes and riflemen. Depending on the resists I can outdamage strafeshot 2 as well. With the combat spam for scattershot fixed now, my scattershot 2 usually logs between 1000-3500 on standing targets.
Although I don't seem to get respect from riflemen and TKMs when I outdamage them, it's usually the opposite.
