How come Carbineer is the only combat profession that doesn't get a new special when you master?


Every other combat profession gets a new special when you master, even Master Marksman gets one. Why areCarbineers the red headed step child?

no idea but I would guess it might be because we get a special at almost every box.

Would you rather have no new specials at master, or two that don't work

Doesn't see the point of a bile-venting "I'm leaving" thread.

No, they're all 2nd Versions of Previous Specials.


Wild Shot 1/2

FAS 1/2

FAA 1/2

Scatter 1/2

BS 1/2

There was a thread about trying to choose a new Special at our master box, the teo really popular ideaswere to just move one of our many specials to the master box and something along the lines of /fullautosingle3, but the devs seem to not really care, so i wouldn't expect changes until the combat rebalance at Publish 42 or so, personally i feel /chargeshot2 should be moved to master, and /crippleshot should be at Markmanship 4.


As well not having a Master level special doesn't really effect anything other than dabbling, since a master special would just lower dabbling.

Point 1: Carbineer has more total Specials than any other profession.


Point 2: Top 5 issues sent to Devs deals with Master box among other things.


Point 3: Second version of previous Specials are quite different.....single target vs. AoE....pretty big deal there


Point 4: Carbineer has every Special working...LegShot3 is getting an update later on when other profs get Specials fixed.



Probably some more points to make, but about time to go to sleep
