Carbineer Archive

hi folks. I'm a new pistoleer and almost have enough xp for my first skill after novice... suggestions?

May as well go up the stances and grips line, it's the least worthless of the three. The combat xp line is the good one for pistol whip and the speed.

I recommend the order of Stances & Grips, Marksmanship, Tactics.

so double tap and stopping shot are better than bodyshot 3? I guess I just figured bodyshot was better cause it hits the same ham everytime... okay well thanks for the info.

I can now learn my first Carbine Skill, so which one would you take first? And which Skill afterwards? I hope someone can give me some usefull information.

Thanks

Oh, come on: Which ist the best Carbineer Skill to learn first?

depends on your plan. if you are going to eventually master, go with the speed tree (first column from the left.) if you are only going to get a few skills, go with burst shot (third column from the left.)

Im doing the accuracy, so i could get crippling shot

I'm with WTS on this one. Grab burstshot first.

Crippling shot is great, but by going up the marksman line first, you'll be missing out on a cheap lower HAM cost, high damage special. Once you have it, going up the marksman line will be much easier.

I agree - burstshot is a great first grab. If i had to drop the whole carb tree and only keep one box - this would be the one I would choose!

I agree, as well. I accidentally accepted counter-insurgency 1 (burst shot 1). It was the best mistake out of many I've made so far in SWG. Burst-shot not only is a great support skill for grouping on Dath, but also allows quick XP gains for the rest of tree. Go with that first.

I went accuracy first because of the notorious poor accuracy of carbines in general.

I did a post on Kettemoor's boards explaining my position on Carbineers.

Quote:

Why are their so many suicidal Carbineers? We miss our heads at point blank range.

Why are Carbineer KD shots so effective? The target is laughing at us too hard to resist.

How many Carbineers does it take to shoot out a lightbulb? One, give him ten minutes and the ceiling will be so badly shredded the light fixture will fall, with the bulb still intact.

thanks for you help

I will learn the burst shot
