Thread: LordS We need more accuracy and speed period.
Trust me, things have a way of having their moments where they like to run a streak like that. I was with a BH and he managed to land 1 shot, I landed none. I've been trying to make the best of my PvP experience but Im getting tired of being the guy that runs around with fire everywhere as just a distraction while others kill em.
I just want to make sure it is known we need to be faster with ALL HWs, disposable and non-disposable, and more accurate. I actually like the HWs a lot if they could just be made easier for a more reasonable price and were accurate enough to hit, no to mention fast enough to be worth while. While I was with a master rifleman, I kept seeing my heavy weapon hit for 5000 damage, Rifleman hit for 1500 damage, 1500 damage, 1500 damage, 1500 damage, 1500 damage, heavy weapon for 5000 damage, in the combat log.
I know TH said they do not intend on things killing in one hit, and I can agree with that, but with the delays we had befor what is now being called a nerf, we had to hope we hit them with our first shot and hopefully killed them, or we would be dead, now that we have this "nerf" it really doesnt matter because we gotta hope for a one-shot-kill just like befor or we're dead cause after the initial hit, we are way outdamaged DPS.
I would suggest even keeping the DOT reduced and going back to our old initial hit but removing the delay for the FT, everything else is as it always has been, we have a lot to be desired. I just hope to see it get changed here soon.
If your wndering why I suddenly am bringing this up while we have had these problems, well, I got my template done and was looking to have fun, only to find I am worhtless beyond being a tank. Oh well. I'll keep waiting but we need to see more than a green FT.
Then I got up, Punched the TK in the head and flamed the Commando. Fight over
None of us were buffed or had decent armour btw, it was more of an RP duel.

You guys need the speed because Publish 7 is going to bend you over and have it's silly little way with you.
I have noticed with My LLC(A Heavy Weapon)on my BH character I get a large melee defence bonus. This is through the defence bug(Basically when they removed 2.5 melee damage they gave a melee defence bonus, well it was supposed to be a melee penilty). When Publish 7 goes through meleers are going to have a huge advantage for hitting you.

What about this pistol I hear about? I can easily drop my scout (sell organic materials) and pick up th accuracy line in pistoleer, I just hate the fact that then I wouldnt be using any of my commando skills at all really but if thats what I got to do for now, I like pistoleer. (LP actually sucks compared to my 1.3 speed DX)
Where/how do I get ahold of these?
At master commando i seem to hit roughly every two seconds which i think is a nice speed for what is a heavy weapon. I dont know the maths for working it all out properly, just going by observation.
What i would settle for is AP2 on the FT or AP3 on the HAR as we have no (?) AP non-consumable weapons rendering us pretty much dead most PVP encounters against those in the know of other professions.
That said, while we are out-damaged by lots of other professions both pve and pvp, i still find it a lot of fun to go bashing stuff with my 2H lvl 3 brawler sword, get into spots of bother and whip out the FT for a quick n accurate FS2 saving my arse in the process.
One day.....all will be well in the universe for us MC's
"When Publish 7 goes through meleers are going to have a huge advantage for hitting you."
