Thread: What are your favorite solo PvP shot combo's? (please post)
i really don't know any profs that can withstand being out numbered. But in groups against other groups, i usually use /fullautoarea2 and /chargeshot1 (*not* 2) and then if i notice someone on my side, focusing damage on a specific target i will lend a handusually with /scattershot2 just for the mind damage, as most PvPer's target mind. Be sure when usingAoE you are onlyaffecting the targets you want to affect. Nothing makes me happier than a foolish opponent KDing me and then megetting right back up since i had no dizzy, and then having a 30 second immunity to KnockdownCarbineer is NOT a single key "twitch" profession, sorry. You need to have 6-8 specials hot keyed and use your MIND to win in almost all PvP situations.
The "macro" you list is great on paper, but the % chance to land KD and a state can vary too much. Just use those shots 1-2 at a time until you get the target "stuck". It is hard to go wrong with the FullAuto series and bleed shots.....they will do great damage and Dizzy/KD

I would prefer answers pertaining to aCarbineer fighting solo against one or multiple PvP targets.
As Master Carbineer alone,I used:
Wildshot (to get the Stun)
SuppressionFire / Action Shot (to get a posture down - use Action shot for bleed.. most people who can heal it will, even though it doesnt to much)
(Insert KD here.. like ChargeShot)
FullAutoSingle2 / ScatterShot (FAS2 is great for states.. Scattershot hits the mind pool better than most.)
You will most likely have to vary from time to time, as mentionned above. We can't spam the same specials or setup a macro that will work all the time. For example, with speed tapes, CrippleShot has a higher DPS. BurstShot hits nicely too. Legshot is great for incapacitating targets that have a low action pool (if by random chance that pool was much lower than the others.)
Naturally, for group situations, FullAutoArea2 and ChargeShot2 work great if you can get a Stun/Posture down on multiple targets. It's all a matter of what's happening in the heat of the battle.
If, however, you went BH/Carbineer, then its pretty much ConfusionShot, FireKnockDown, and CrippleShot till death. Though some posture downs and FAS/FAA are great for states too, if you sit back and slug at 50m ranges.
A macro running like so:
/FullAutoArea2;
/Pause 1;
/ui action toolbarSlot07;
Insert ChargeShot2 once the Dizzy lands.
I keep with the area attacks to counteract GTEF coverts.
Thank you everyone for all the information so far.
This will help alot, I just became a master carbineer a week ago and I haven't been playing sinceAugust of last year, hence im out of the loop PvP wise. Great stuff!!
Thanks again
