Digging up the old dead-horse issue on charge shot again. I really don't care that it's infinite KD in pvp, but in PvE, it's making the most epic encounters in the game seem trivial.
I have access to numerous characters. One of which is a master bounty hunter, 0002 carbineer, and medic. I can solo any mob in the game even without buffs (just need food). I solo krayts no problem, nightsister elders easy, DJM's cake,even AT-ST's if I'm buffed. Because the friggin style is BUGGED and kd's on every shot. This needs to be addressed, as it cheapens the whole reward of killing an epic mob in SWG.
I'm sure most of the carbineers here will disagree to keep their "uber" bugged special, but I have it too and I'm looking for game balance. Anyone agree?

If you find itthat easy maybe switch to the survival knife and solo a krayt.

And I'm not even a carbinier... it's just that the rest of the class is broken.

I'd agree that Charge Shot is unbalanced and broken, but heck most of our class is broken, and as a master carbineer, I would not mind seeing charge shot fixed if it meant the devs would actually get around to fixing the rest of our class as well.

wow BH's must need a good nerfing too if they can do 400,000 damage to a mob with heavy armor and insane resistances before their food buffs run out!

When I was master swords, carbineer, and brawler I could kill an elder in the open, toe-to-toe. Just charge shot till you're on her, warcry / chargeshot /warcry until she's delayed, KD them again for bigger mind bleeds w/sword, couple head hits, intimidate, then chargeshot as you run away. Get beyond force range (35 meters) and keep her pinned with charge shot as she bleeds, repeat. If you need to actually get away from those force specials that shrink your ham bars, charge shot till you get to your bike and drive around a bit.
Krayt dragons were pretty much the same except easier because you didn't have that force-weaken crap.
ATSTs just charge shot, warcry2, powerhammer, intimidate, repeat.
It's a bug, just a matter of time before it's fixed.

There are lots of great profession combos that will help to take out high level content with ease. Any combat class combo with Creature Handler can take out anything in the game, why are you not complaining about that? Because if it wasn't the case noone would be a CH. Nerfingchargeshot is not going to help anyone and it will only piss of those that are only carbineers and do not have access to these other great profession combos. The only fix that should be considered at all would be to move chargeshot to the Master Carbineer skill box to prevent dabblers from taking advantage so easily of such a powerful move.

ya im just kidding, we really need chargeshot nerfed, it makes me so powerful that i will usually use this special to get them down on the ground so i can toss a saddle on them and ride them like a pony while strangling them with massive carbineer arms.

i dont think its the chargeshot that is the problem here.
most of you who posted replies are using chargeshot in conjunction with another classes skills/abilities.
i am nothing but a master carbineer and cant do what you guys are speaking of.
