That's what it tells you in the combat spam, butit'snot hitting for thoseactual amounts due to armor, PSGs, synthsteak, etc. Until the combat revamp and armor nerfsaCarbineer (non-BH)really can't doenough damage through those protections with any of our guns. Acid or Laser areyour only chance against a well-prepared opponent depending on template.

As you also noted, if our KD sticks we give our allies a great opportunity to rush in and do the real damage. Plus we have our area-effect states to debuff the opponents. For the moment, those are our real strengths in a GCW battle.

You are correct but also in the combat spam it shows my opponent full damage to me then the my armor /synth steak reduces it, but my initial damage was often more than others.

i found that in PvP as a carbineer, if you play it right you won't have to worry about getting mind hit. all the riflemen go after the melee ppl so i stay at a constent 50m spamming FAA2 and charge shot2 and allowing the melee to take the hits which is what they are good at.

I started an aspiring Master Carbineer/BH 3400 character. On the way up so far, I'm finding Carbines to be great fun and surprised with the damage output compared to Riflemen. I just hit Novice Carbineer and have yet to even get close to BH, but it's been fun so far.
From what I've been hearing of the C.Rebalance, I have a gut feeling this profession will come out for quite the better. Rifles will be slowed down, the new HAM system to prevent "/spamshot" every second, and the tweaks to armor/buffs. Also, Carbines should be retaining their speed. The C.Rebalance should be good to the Carbineer.
