Ok I really love having pistols. Have been a pistoleer with just about everything that ive ever done in the game and would like to stay one.

I keep hearing lots of stuff about how pistoleer is not the best choice for all sorts of reasons to go with this combo but with the pistol I have I am wondering if I may stand a chance.

Here is a screen.

I am asking because I took 8 months off from the game and am new to the CU system and am not sure of all the mechanics of how the system works.

Please leave me your suggestions/comments.

Thanks!

MBH MCM is definately one of the strongest templates to take down jedi. I wouldnt worry about pistoleer 0004 though as the root really isnt worth the excess skill points. Personally i prefer rifles 4000 for the extra damage (heashot).

Learn how to use CM with MBH and you will see a great improvement in jedi killins.

I have to disagree on the pistoleer part. Keeping them at range is a major help as you are able to do damage without recieving any. Its not that long but any amount that they heal is more MIND pool points they have to spend to catch up with your MIND status after debuffs.

On the other side though I would only recommend it for the specials and not the weapons. Pistols are a poor choice for fighting Jedi. The range is short making it difficult to kite. Jedi can still reach you with their ranged KD at 35m. The low damage is balanced out with speed and SAC though so at least that much is a plus.

Needless to say, unless you are fighting a hybrid/padawan then MIND consumption is going to be a major issue. Force matters not as their will run out of MIND before it does. Additionally, if they are allowed to wail on you then there is a good chance your MIND will run out first. Therefore, doing as much damage without receiving is a priority.

Lose the carbine and grab an advanced laser rifle. All mods from BH are "general" meaning you can use a rifle, pistol, or carbine equally as well as any master level profession.

The one extra tree you get isn't for more speed, its for specials to use in combat. I sure hope thats the ranged snare tree you got.

Lose the proton carbine. You can get yourself a better rifle or even carbine if you save up the money for it.

I am MBH MCM Pitsol xxx4 and I love it, However I am thinking of dropping the pistols line for the rifles line. I am still not sure yet. However to your question you will be fine with this temp and very effective.

I am MBH , MCM , Carbs 0400. Like the other person said you have so much general that getting the extra line from the other ranged proffessions is more for specials. I perfer the 0400 line of carbs as it gets you improved leg-shot (just as powerful has headshot) and improved cripple shot (ranged snare) but the big bonues is the +50 to general ranged accuracy. However if you really want to keep one line of pistol then go with 4000 or at the least 2000 pistol because warning shot I think is the best special pistoleers have.

Oh and my sig is out of date.
