Hey all, old-time Master Carbineer here. My first holo was Carbineer, and I just fell in love with the class, broken as we were. Rather than give it up and continue the hologrind, I made a second character who was a crafter. So, now I come back to Master Carbineer, having mastered my crafting classes, and I wonder...what specials are you all using now (I'm talking mostly PvE combat here). I've been using both fullautos, and I still like the chargeshot1/crippleshot combo. Are there more efficient combos out there? And what's the best to generally spam shoot (I've been using fullautosingle2). Thanks!

In PvE I mostly use BurstShot2 with the occasional ActionShot2 and ChargeShot2.

When i PvE i usually PvE in groups so that may change my opinions. Usually i am helping my guildies get some XP so i try and support as much as a possible. Usually start off with a well placed /chargeshot2, followed by /actionshot2 to gets a bleed (albeit a bad one) stuck on my target. Theni just go for pure damage output by using /fullautosingle2, or if you can set it up /burstshot2.
When i do do solo missions what is usually do is attack the lair until i get most of the mob concentrating on healing the lair and the proceed to /burstshot2 them all to death. When i do PvE not to help guildies with XP, we usually do Rancors on Dathomir and that works wonders on them. I usually go with a Pikeman friend of mine and we both sit there and use AoE attacks on the lair and we can usually clear it in under 3 minutes. And people cry about how gimped our classes are ... beats me.
In any case /fullautosingle2 is your friend, huge damage output.

I have myself a 506 in 3.3 Laser and a 257 in 1.8 DH17, the Laser is krayt, both have powerups. I start off by spamming Full auto single with the DH17 until they dizzy, then i Charge shot so they are DIzzy KDed, then I Pound them with Crippling shot with the Laser until they incap(2 hits or less without buffs, 4-5 with buffs)

Not sure if this is noobish of me or not but........
I usually open with action2 for the bleed then spam cripple. I noticed that cripple seems to be doing more damage then FAS2. I decided this after watching my combat log for a bit.
I have been trying out a few other things without success yet. I dizzy them then do the chicken dance at them. I KD them but they ALWAYS get back up. 
Still working on good comboes that seem to work for me beyond my basic spam.

well first i get my pet on them.
( iam buffed with tatooint sunburn at the time)
i open combat with my krayt DH17 snub-nose(speed 1.5, damage some thing like 70-225), i shoot action shot 1 to bleed it, then i shoota fewfullAutoSingels to get stun/blind/dizzy on it then i knock it down and then i swith to my laser carbine and spam fullautosingle 1.
thanks to the tatooine sunburn the HAM cost dosen't touch my health at all( i mean 0 damage to health)and i have almost all my points in quickness(850 points)so my action dosent take to bad a hit and mind if never a problem.
and bam, there dead
