just retired my master pistols.. gotta sell em now
not even the De-10's massive damage potential is good enough to defend your-self in pvp when your best shot is light armor piercing. I'm 3-3-2-4 rifles and its a new world..hehe

On one hand, you have all those nice state defenses.
On the other hand.....that's all you have. Period.
If you want to do some damage along with your poisons, pick up Rifles.
If you want crowd control, pick up Carbineer.

yea, its a ok temp, but i prefer MCM and MR(rifles).
i prefer rifles tho, ranged provides safety from PvPers.

I dropped Master Rifleman/CM for Master Pistoleer/CM, and honestly, I havent looked back (except in PvE, cant do jack anymore). I mind and health targeting poison diseases. Health targets throw people off, as mind is the expected target, and without being a Doc or CM your opponent wont be able to heal fast enough.
PRO:
Using defensive foods to augment Pistoleer's natural defenses, you can stay up for a very, very long time continuing to chuck poisons/heals/diseases.
CON:
-Most pistols suck. AP1 at best, usually low damage.
-Speed. Pistoleers have low speed, you'll need attachments to cap.
-Accuracy. Accuracy is very poor. I hardly ever incap someone by shooting at them.
-No states. Not one. Get a KD and a bleed.
Rifleman is better by most standards, accurate, fast, mind hitting, state sticking, but I no longer get hit or KDed nearly as often since picking up pistols. This lets you kite like hell.
I'm sure you'll do whatever fits your tastes.
