When looking at the BH carbine line, comparing it with the carbineer profession (after publish 7) I'm rather happy with the comparison:

BHs get:

- Multi-state specials that are very powerful against single targets (sprayshot in particular).

- Better speed mods.

- No specific pool hits.

Carbineers get:

- Better defenses.

- Area attacks (we get basically all our singles in an area version).

- Action pool specific hits.

- Higher accuracy than BHs.

All in all I think this adds both distinctiveness and balance to the classes. But I'm sure people will start complaining over BH + carbineer dabblers that never miss now that defenses will be hard capped.

I'd take the BH line anyday, speed matters more against crappy counterattack.

i used to be a die hard preacher about the usefulness of counterattack. but after some recent pvp battles ive got to say its not worth it in the long run. at +180 counterattack they miss me alot, but it only takes one dizzy and one kd and you're down for the count. ive decided to compliment carbineer with the bh line, at least until they fix fullauto area 2 and chargeshot 2.

I think both BH and Carbineers are wise toget the others' skills.

actually, i tried full auto area 2 last night at the advice of a friend, and it did actualy work for me, i was going thru the hyperdrive facility on rori and using it to drop 3 and 4 npc's at a time. i was very happy acctualy

myself i would love to get BH carbine 4, but i need to keep DR for my guildmates and friends so /shrug

as far as counter attack, from what i can tell, the only time it works in pve is against npc's, and as a master carbiner with 105, and the mods on my armor taking it to 125, i counterattack npc's a decent amount of the time.

in pvp, i find it working alot more, i have had duels with ppl who i have counterattacked 75% of the time, but its usally 50% give or take a few.

course Dizzy+KD and your counter attack is useless, but /shrug it happens

Sprayshot is not in the carb line, you must earn master first and u cant compare an elite force to a hybrid that uses 217 skill points to get it. Im a master carbineer/master swordsman on corbantis that would wipe the floor with my MBH.

But I get the feeling they don't care.

Apparently Counterattack works with a rifle equipped at the moment. I'd like to see what a Master Rifleman/Master Carbineer could do.
