It's fun as hell to control your enemies state, and then deciminate your enemy. If you do it right you can completely screw with your opponent's head (not mind pool, I mean disorient him/her) and then deciminate them to incap. I took out a jedi (0043 in Saber tree) in a matter of seconds with the right tactics. He politely sent me a /tell afterword complimenting me on how I did it, the guy didn't even know what happened - I knocked him down and killed him before he could even see who was attacking him. Things like that make me keep the proffession, but there are times I wish I had more skill points to use on defense

Why did you choose carbineer?
- It's a bad ass looking weapon, lol. Aside from that, it's the weapon of choice for most rank-and-filemilitary - both Rebel and Stormtoopers. It's between a rifle and a pistol, what can I say?
What is good about carbineer?
- Combat control. Using posture downs / knockdowns with states and loads of area effect stuff means you can spray the battlefield with death or just make life hell for one person.
What makes you want to keep carbineer?
- The hopes that we'll get new, better, more versatile carbines or abilities. Something that with AP 2 that will let us participate in high-end content like Krayts, NS and DWB, etc...

well for one i love the looks of our weapons. i like the idea of carbines, and i was destroyed by a carbineer in PvP back in the day and i was like wow i want to be one of those. yep haven't looked back since. gone through fencer/carb SL/carb doc/carb BH/carb pikeman/carb and now i'm a weaponsmith/carb. i lke my current template the best, followed by SL/carb because the 2 just seem to go together.

1. Because Carbineer isone ofthe only combat profession where you can't just spam 1 attack the whole time and hope your opponent falls over. It takes raw PvP skill to be effective with a Carbine in the battlefield.
Can't say that for most other profs.
Also went Carbines because they were and still are the scarcest combat profession in the game, and a certain ammount of pride and accomplishment comes with being a credible Carbineer.
And Mercenary is the coolest title in the game.
2. Diversity of extremely useful attacks.. an attack for every situation. States, states, states.
And Mercenary is still the coolest title in the game.
3. A Carbine's the only weapon I feel safe and confident holding.. because they're without a doubt the most powerful weapon inthe game in the hands of the right user.
And because I don't want to lose my Mercenary title.

Originally I worked on all 3 marks professions just to learn them all. I ended up picking carbineer just because the Elite carbine looked cool, lol. Pretty silly since after over a year of being a carbineer, I rarely use it all. It's the only profession I've never dropped.

how i got started on carbineer is kind of a funny story.
i had been playing for just a few days, had been using pistols(was still a noob, had no idea what the difference between pisols, rifles and carbiens were) and i had some artisan so i want to craft a new gun, so i looked at the CDEF rifle and carbine, and i thought the carbine looked cooler so i made that, i still have that carbine i crafted.
so basicly i chose it cause the guns look cool, hehe.
i really like carbineer for its balance between speed and power(well thats how its SUPPOSED to be
), as i used them more and more i really liked the specials, some really fast ones(fullAuto) and good power ones like cripple shot. the AOE shots are great fun too!
i love the carbineer community, there are alot fo really cool/nice people. i have been playing carbineer soo long it has become 2nd nature for me and i have concidered changing prof more then once, but every time i do i look over all the other profs and NONE of them seem as much fun or go with my play style as well as carbineer does.
