Why not give us a stun weapon? Why are they afraidmaking Carbineers actually a playable profession for PvP? The Devs always want to push us into PvP (been scanned lately) so why not let us want to do it because we feel we'd have a snowballs chance!
It sure looked like an Elite Carbine in A New Hope when they stunned Leia didn't it?
/emote Buys the devs a copy of the original Star Wars films.

Why not make any guns besides stun damage useful?

I'm not fussed about stun weapons alone. A fencer with an 300+ acklay baton .. ouch. But it's still generally health damage, and that is an exceptional gun. A pistoleer is only a problem if they add BH pistols for Eyeshot.
A rifleman does enough damage to the mind anyway.
I'm afraid this would mean our opponents need to use a stim-b every 10 seconds, rather than every 15. We wouldnt achive a great deal by having a stun weapon alone.

Well what if every ranged weapon could be switched to stun for 1/10th the damage of what the weapon does normally. It wouldn't make the existing stun weapons unuseful because they would still do more damage, but it's inline with the films and might level the playing field just alittle.
When I PvP it's stun damage that does me in unless there is a CM around. As a master Carbineer with superior armor (80 everything, 28 stun) buffs, food buffs for mind and a krayt Dxr6 with 2.8 speed damage 160-339 I still lose to any guy with a stun weapon. Now while I think that BH's and Commandos should be more powerful I don't see the reason that the others can't be level with us. After all it takes the same amount of skill points. Why not just remove Carbineer from the game and make us all Riflemen. That's what they want right?
