Thread: Question: Are there any AoE weapons that aren't Commando Specific?

Title says it all.

I'm MS/MBH/Commando 0400. Love my LBC but I got this new Concussion Shot coming up that breaks on damage. I'm wondering if I can drop Commando and my LBC and use a non-Commando specific weapon that is AOE.


This way I can replace the root I'm going to lose with the root in Pistoleer 0004.


Now I already thought about going- MS/MBH/Pistols 0001/Commando 0100- and just using the Launcher Pistol but I think this is a weaker template than going pistols 0004 or keeping Commando 0400.


Thoughts?

Go Commando 0004. You will get good HW mods like speed and accuracy, and you will get the Acid Stream Launcher at 0003, which has a range of 65 meters, a HUGE conical AoE that can sweep out a GIANT area, a chance to blind, and NO DoT that would break your mez.


Acid Stream Launcher FTW.


Believe it. It is the best weapon in the game to apply mezzes, states, and KD's. You could even theoretically KD an entire army at once with your BH KD.

The Mez he's going to have will only be a daze, IMO that's what's not worth keeping. ( "we" have already dropped our concussion shots weeks agobecause what good is a root if you dont have the dmg to take the target down. )

From what I under stand Concussion Shot and Stopping Shot are pretty much the same now.


When Concussion becomes a mez it's going to kick ass against taking on a bunchpeople but soloing is going to be difficult. Not impossible- but a lot more difficult without a root. Juggle between the two and you are a CC god.


I have thought a LOT about that damn Acid Laucher Axob. A WHOLE lot. And with that lil' respec token window poppin' up every 5 minutes- there ain't no tellin' what might happen.



Still don't know what to do about a root though.

I wouldn't waste your last respec to grind out a single line in commando.


That can be done FAST in a xp group.

This means "I don't want to lose my area root, pls tell me how I can keep area root so I can be a "CC god" /cough* without having to dump skill points in commando"


STOPPINGSHOT IS A HORRIBLE ROOT THAT NEVER STICKS AND HAS A COOL DOWN OF 20 MINUTES!

lol compared to concussion shot, the cool down feels like 20 minutes, but it's more like 120 seconds


Just don'texpect to land a second stopping shot on a target, if you miss or it doesn't stick, hope for the best...

Compared to concussion shot after Pub 19 (i think), it'll be better...won't break on damage

I'm gonna have to ask the Pistoleers how they feel about this shot. I thought it was a dependable shot.

Stopping Shot lands as well as any special, but if you miss.... you have to wait out the HORRIDLY long timer that it has. I heard that it was anywhere between 45 seconds and 2 minutes.
