At the risk of being labelled a whiner (and with every risk there is always thje chance of failure), I'd like to add my two cents to the Caribineer push for more variety in our weapons - specifically, some kind of stun gun.

I've gone MSwords/MBrawler/MCaribineer. I do all right, in fact pretty well, with PVE. But with the best tactics in the world, I am finding it hard to outfight or, since it comes to it, out evade BHs/Pistoleers/Fencers/Riflemen if they have a stun weapon. Yes, I am buffed and eating my brandy and Muon.

I was, until recently, Master Pistols/MS Fencer and, in PVP, couldn't be beat - switching between my Geo Blaster and my Baton. Now I try to avoid PVP in my current Caribineer-led profession.

We don't need a stun weapon, we need pub 11, which will hopefully put ALL forms of damage as equally defendable in armor, the way it is now, stun is the only one you cant layer to 80%, thus the idea that if you dont have a stun dmg weapon, you are worthless. Pub 11 hits, you'll be very happy with your ap2 blast and energy damage types. We've all just got to have some patience, and faith in the devs, I know its hard, but just try.

mafiree, we all know thats not true.....i use a 37% stun helm(actually all my armor is this)and psgs sliced to near 60% stun.......

stun at best 40-60%(ap=psg is next to useless)

every other dmg type 70-90%.............you seriously think a stun helm will help you when you are blinded,stunned,dizzy kd'd(maybe) and intimidated, gettin whacked by scatter shiak over and over......

With a 35% helm a geo or a baton is next to worthless. They suffer damage reduction for not havin' ap, and then for the stun layers. The only devestatin' stun weapon is a jawa ion rifle.

even then i still find my ap 2 laser more usful than a stun weapon... exept for when you jump jedi hunting in kinetic gear, then stun would be nice. But we have ranged KD and dizzy so i feel we would eb overpowered with a stun gun

Alright, I'll just tactics myself an AP3 carbine with 300-500 damage. Darn it didn't work.

You don't need a Stun weapon, just a different set of tactics.

Riflemen don't even need a Jawa to make your life miserable, just a proper crafted, sliced and powered up T-21.

What my fellow Ahazian Jeht said

Look, it isn't going to happen and armor is getting the big nerf bat in pub 11 anyway. Not to mention, stun is the least of my concer as Jeht and I along with some other damn good Imp pvpers got tef poisoned and diseased to death in Theed last night

Of course, I'm hoping our friendly Cm's experience some *cough* balance in pub 11 as well

First..

"get a helm w/ 30% stun resists for about 200k and ur fine"

LOL i feel bad for your server if it costs 200k for a stun helm...

Second, Yes, carbineer will look more appealing round time of armor nerf.I think becuase your porblem is stun dmg... get a full suit of stun, which is what an awful lot of people don't do... the mind is becoming less and less popular nowadays and a full suit of stun is great to have... only rifleman have AP stun so fencers and pistoleers can't do any dmg to you with the 50% resis from light armorPLUS 25%-40% reduc from your stun resis
