I have read many posts concerning Carbineers. I was wondering what tactics do you guys use against different types of opponents?

I have found that against NPC opponents that shoot back, Kiting is the most effective for me. NPC's that melee, I use warning shot, action shot, leg shot.

In PVP I can handle most others fairly well when its one vs. one. In larger encounters, with multiple players on each side, It gets difficult for me to survive. Kiteing etc.. dosen't work well for me.

So what proffessions do you have? (melee/carbine etc..)
What kind of armor do you use?
What do you have your stats set at?

I'm trying to reserve judgement on the carbineer proffession until I know I'm doing my part to play as effective as I can.

All I can come up with is hearing Han's voice over in the noob tutorial saying, "This place is gonna blow." I guess that's about it. At least Han was honest.
Playing SWG is like licking a steel post in the wintertime. Sure it hurts. If you leave, parts of you will remain.

Well I had planned on using ChargeShot, but once I found out how gay it is, I went back to ActionSpamming things in place.

Action Shot2-Action Shot1-ThenI alternate between AS2 and Legshot 3

The point is, ladies and gentleman, is that "bots" -- for lack of a better word -- are good. Bots are right. Bots work. Bots clarify, cut through, and capture the essence of the SWG spirit. Bots, in all of their forms -- bots for crafting, for killing thugs, for buffing, healing -- have marked the upward surge of mankind and other races. And bots -- you mark my words -- will not only save SWG, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the Empire.

I have Carbineer 2-3-2-1 and BH 0-2-0-0. I just got BH last night, and should have BH 0-3-0-0 later tonight, so my tactics are "in flux" at the moment. Charge shot has its uses.

I would always switch to a really fast, low HAM CDEF carbine for charge shot, then follow it up with a laser or something else more powerful. Using a CDEF doesn't affect the length of knockdown from a charge shot, so it's almost a free round when used that way.

melee i stick in place with pc's and bleed them to death. use kd when as1 or as2 fails a few times in a row to pc them

ranged i use charge-shot/crippleshot/stim-b combos...or if i have a healer, charge-shot/crippleshot/as1 or as2. seems rather effective, if long and bloody. i usually dish out a total of 2 of their ham bars and heal myself 5 or 6 times over, but i also usually win even against red-con.

Solo vs ranged.. either kite them with actionshot and charge or cripple/action/charge. Depends on the lvl

Grouped.. End up playing CC alot seeing most of the ppl I group with use Rifle. However I do have to cripple, burst, etc to keep my damage up. **edit** Riflemen and thier 4k mind hits.
