The Flavour of the month Carbineers or the fact that we may get something? A reliable KD/Dizzy Combo (all they will need is 0002) is defintly gonna draw some attention, not to mention the "swordsman got a new weapon we want one too" kiddies are gonna show up.

Given that this template has no speed and no accuracy and thenumber of players with defense templates, a 0002 carbineer would get rocked in PvP.

Not quite you don't need a certification to use it. Therefore ANYONE can use it.

This gets off topic, but fixing those specials is
HUGE
We will have more working specials than broken ![]()
Please go back to the Sticky'd post on specials that documents the working/broken/redundent ones. Now plug in the proposed changes and see if we are the weakest profession on the battlefield.....I think NOT.
Nova has done a truly amazing thing to get the Devs to do this BEFORE the Combat Revamp and this is A LOT of LOVE from the Devs.

I'm a MBH but I really feel for carbineers as I've taken up basically half of carbineer because I like it more than pistol. I've dropped chargeshot now that they "fixed" it and just taken up the two middle branches. I'd love to see the specials fixed though. You are by far the most gimped combat class as of right now.

And once again Carbineers and the other already-broken professions get pummeled further into the ground...
They are probably thinking they can justify it because they fixed a few of our specials... "We already helped them, they don't need more."
I still don't understand why in hell they keep adding new content when stuff that was around when SWG launched is still broken...

True everyone has the cert, but everyone doesn't get the accuracy and speed increases, so Carbineers still can put it to better use.

Nym's Slugthrower is no where near as good as a nice DXR6 any day.
Anyways, there's a new dungeon coming soon (Corellian Blockade Runner). Maybe some of the loot there will be a new carbine schematic?

You have to ask yourself...Why the hell did that dev make the nym slugthrower acid since we already have an acid carbine? It should have been made kinetic or stun. Xieflow is right though, hopefully they will show us some lovin at the new Blockade runner dungeon.
