Anyone? It's hard enough hitting things with a heavy weapon. Need a little help if possible. The launcher pistol dosen't give heavy weapons XP so it's pretty much useless to me right now

Last I checked, the launcher pistol DOES give heavy weaps exp. In fact, I reached Flame 3 using ONLY the launcher pistol. If you aren't getting Heavy Weaps exp, check your pistol again and make sure it is, in fact, a launcher pistol, because they are supposed to give Heavy Weaps exp.

I've been using thelauncherpistol or blaster pistol... not sure which one.... I'm getting heavy wepons EXP with it... It looks like a mini rocket launcher and makes loud satisfying booms.


Since I've got pistoleer too, i hit poretty regularly with it. Check the Napalm guide at the top too. it's where I got my info on what to start with HW wise.

/agree darknes


they give *nice* xp, and you can probably take one out before it reaches you - launcher pistol to start bleed1, and then switch to lagthrower.

This is what I was doing last nite. I dropped about 4 ST in about 20 seconds each, and racked in about 25k in xp over 3 hours time...


First I examined for weaknesses, equipped the appropriate pistol for damage type... added a +32 to min/max damage powerup on that pistol, and also on the launcher pistol.


HS1, HS2 until I got good numbers on both, the switched to Launcher. Body shot 2 times 5... heal, then bodyshot again. Usually by that time they were dead and I got about 2.5k in HW.


Once I get Flame 1, I'll be adding that to the bleeds, and going back to the launcher until I hit flame 3.

I'm not getting HW xp for my launcher pistol. I know it's a launcher pistol. It does all the tell tale things a launcher pistol does. Except gimme HW xp. It's giving me pistol XP.

grab a good pet like a mauler and some petstims, send the pet in to attack the lair so that the critters all gather around and gang bang him, use a flamethrower with its specials for the burn DOT on each one once so that they start burning, and then once they are all atleast burning, target one and open up. I've been doing this on dantooine and average 3000 HW xp per kill, and I can make 150k+ HW xpin an hour.

Nothing is more satisfying than using the launcher pistol just outside town and having people saying "What the ::edit:: is that!?!"
