Carbineer Archive

I agree with Nova, I think its a grahical glitch, which has unfortunate consequences for melee only opponents in PvP.

That being said, theres plenty of other things wrong with PvP at the moment, I don't think this is gonna get fixed any time soon.

Im not really seeing the uberness of this move at all. It might be because im fairly low level carbineer atm. Only 1/0/0/2 but i dont really see the usefullness in it what so ever. I kd you with it and in the time you are kded i cannot attack further. Only when you get up can i apply another attack. And as far as the amount of damage the move does, it is pityful when you look at the ham cost of performing it. Maybe as you reach master your speed mods are so high that you can continue to attack while the person is kded for that 1 second. I however must wait for you to get up before doing so. The only use i have found for the move at all would be in pve when a creature is running at me and i need to kd it so i can run and let it agro my pet. Please let me know if this is due to me being just too low level to experience the true power of this supposed uber move.

Chargeshot1 by its self is worthless for the most part(except spamming it on people who are melee only). But when you spam ranged dizzy and then hit with one chargeshot you are down and you stay down. I have 70% KD defense, the only time Im not KDed by chargeshot is when it misses. I dont mind it being like lowblow,underhand or even KDFire. It just needs to be subject to the same rules as every other KD out there.

But isnt our dizzy broken? Im pretty sure the only carbineer dizzy special only lasts for half a second and goes away before you could even chargeshot. Unless youre talking about the BH dizzy/kd carbine move. It was just today that i got owned by a tka who was fairly low level. I attempted to spam this uber move, but it didnt work as well as you all are hyping it up to be.

/sigh

Dont u get it the master carbineers with bh carbines 4 own because they get "confusion shot" I almost never miss dizzy in pvp since of all my accuracy and even if i do i have uber speed. Its a great combat template for carbines, while carbineer itself blows like BH.

I believe it's the FullAuto specials. The dizzy is so short that it doesn't really do anything.

Oh it can be resisted, I've had to hit people 5 times or more, before they were KD'ed by my chargeshot. Once that first chargeshot KD sticks, it seems you have no defense against the "KD-lite" as someone else called it, but all of the other things that come with the "KD-lite" still apply.

actually, if they are buffed and i am not they will kill me, not my cripplingshot. that seems to be a general trend.

cripplingshot doesn't kill me a quarter as fast as any of the pikeman skills do, so we really don't have it THAT bad off.

only if they're buffed, and in that case i shouldn't even be fighting them. lol

Charge shot by itself is death for pure melee and irritating aganist a ranged class.

Charge shot combined with dizzy is unbalancing.
