I felt I should ask this question here since its about Carbines instead of the BH forum which is mainly about how Jedi are overpowered.
Does Fireknockdown actually put the target on fire (if it lands?)
Is it just like the TKA ability Unarmedknockdown where the chance of getting and actually KD is related to the defense of the target (with a 10% chance anyways.) Is there a timer like TKA's UnarmedKD (can KD then can KD again in 30 seconds?)
Thanks in advance, I'm interested in dropping TKM/Master Doc and going BH carbines + Carbineer + stacked defenses.
And remember, no melee class can kill a kiter who is over 20m away and if you have good Defense vs. PD you can be over 10m away and still be safe

No Fire Knockdown does not start your target on fire. A better name for it would have been Knockdown Fire (as in you knock them down from fireing your weapon). It does knockdown/dizzy your target. As for timer and such, sorry I have no idea.

No on setting them on fire. And the 30 sec timer applies to all knockdown shots no matter what proffesion. Hope that helps.

Hrmph this post doesnt belong in this forum even though it is a carbine special for the BH profession but your post concerning sprayshot which is also a bh carbine special does. Go figure. If I have a question about carbines I will post it here.

Well for those that follow the Forum, we know the difference.....which is that a big choice for the Master Carbineer is IF SprayShot is worth getting a MBH. This has been a recurring question brought up by dozens and few concrete answers have been posted yet. However this FireKD question is purely a BH question that barely belongs on this Forum.
But either way I believe the question was still answered.....

It seemed to me he was asking a question about the effectivness of Fire Knockdown compared to the other kd specials of the bh carbine and carbineer profession. So to ask a question comparing the BH carbine skills to the Carbineer skills you have to post the BH question on the BH board then the Carbineer question on this forum? Seems inefficient to me. I know the veteran people on this forum know the ins and outs of the Carbine so why not ask the question here?
Only reason I thought it was this way was because he mentioned he was going 0-0-4-0 BH and master carbineer. So he is trying to learn the ins and out of the carbine which you should definately do here.
On a related note...do you think sprayshot is worth mastering BH over. I havent decided if I am going to go 3-0-4-0 BH, Master Pistoleer, 0-0-4-0 smuggler or master BH, master carbineer or 3-4-4-0 BH, master pistoleer with 0-4-0-4 Carbineer as you suggested.

Even ifthey have Master Carbineer, BH/Carbineers areBounty Hunters with Carbineer as a secondary profession. BH abilities such as Fire Knockdown have moreeffect on the play style than the Carbineer specials. Same with the +skills. That's why BH carbine specials are a BH forum subject.

Its all semantics....a master Carbineer with 0-4-0-0 is a Carbineer with BH skills to augment their Carbineer skills.
