Carbineer Archive

I originally maxed my HA substats in an futile effort as a Zabrak. Not sure ANY race can handle the Carbineer HAM

Ok. Running around unbuffed is a challenge for a carbineer. But If you max out all of your secondaries you can handle the smaller carbines for a decient period of time. Meaning you can special more than five times. Why all of them? Because as constitution, stamina, and will power affect regen rates. Strength, quickness, and focus affect the rate at which you burn your ham. That is not going to leave alot for the ham itself. But I ran around with that setup for a four month period of time. So I know that it works.

But if you plan on doing this then limit yourself to the following carbines. DH-17 and short counterpart, E-11 carbine, DXR6, and the EE-3. The DXR6 is a little much but it is manageable with a few stims. Some lasers and elites would be useable for a period of time as long as the ham doesn't exceed 40 on any stat.The ee-3 is the exception because of thesuper low mind drain. Heath can be a nightmare, so don't use the ee-3 on npc missions too much.Other than that. About any weapon with a stock attachment or even a scope (if not experimented for ham) should be reserved for buffed use.

as a wookiee carbineer/ch i maxed out my quick and focus (i already have 650 minimum str so i left that alone) i have my health at 700 my action and mind at 1000 and evenly distributed the rest throughout the remaining stats. atm im only 0203 in carbineer and mainly limit myself to using a very nice damage sliced laser carbine while i hunt on dantooine. i use rychcake and brandy and spam the hell out of FAS2. while the food is active each shot only costs me 26 stam which is easily regened. this is unbuffed. im able to keep mobs at optimum distance through the use of my pets which is very helpful. carbineer is my second holo (first was tka). even though its not as strong as tka im having an absolute blast with it. ive found that it compliments my CH abilities alot better then tka did and i enjoy it alot more then i did tka. it gives me more of a star warsy feel then tka did also. ive found that im quite effective in pve. i have no idea on pvp though as i dont do it very often. as a wookiee i dont last very long so i try to steer clear of it.

1k to all mind stats, then 400 to all others. i stay buffed 100% of the time.
