Thread: Maybe I'm just lucky........
I think you need to try using that same Flamethrower against a PvP target and then see how accurate it is.
We've all said this before, and I'll say it again. Commando is great against low heat resist middle level mobs. I don't have any problem at all soloing pikets, gurks, ect (but then again, what combat profession doesn't?). The problem is that when you try to use your flamethrower in a PvP situation, or attempt to use it on a higher level creature (i.e. 100% heat resist), it's pretty much useless. Considering it's the really the only somewhat effective weapon we have, that leaves us out in the cold when dealing with PvP or higher level creatures.
We're not asking to be gods. We're asking for what is intended for Commando to work properly and be competive/have a slight edge over other elite professions that don't spend as many AP points. I don't think it's too much to ask to have grenades and heavy weapons that can be used over long distances without missing and/or killing yourself. I don't think it's much to ask to have AP3 on a Heavy Acid Rifle.
Oh yeah..generally in PvE personally, not much trouble with the FT..tho sometimes it goes kooky and misses a few specials in a row..
but generally the accuracy has to do with PvP..we're CONSTANTLY moving in pvp..hence why the devs give all the profs (EXCEPT US) lots of accuracy..as NPCs dont move like we do...almost like we werent built for PvP...(including how hvy weapons are all but useless in it)
