Hmm... would like to see you fight without the enhancements, and see how you fair. Point being, we shouldn't HAVE to be Master Docs to compete against other classes who don't have medic skills.

Heru, I understand what you're arguing. But I'm simply talking about a pistoleer vs a fencer, he wasn't using added skills, and I wasn't using added skills. If we were, he still probably would have won as he was also a BH for scatter pistol, and I haven't even mastered medic yet. But it still stands, this was one prof vs another prof. Neither of us were buffed, no armor, non sliced weapons, and at a range in which I should have had the upper hand.

i am a pistoleer and fencer........what i think must be understood is that these 2 together make an amazing combo and very tough to beat in PvP and PvE.....


what i think this descution boils down too is that one must be more then just melee or ranged in attacks......and with the pistoleer defense mods matching almost exact that of fencer...what a combo!


getting amazing bonuses to knock down and posture change and all stautus effects.....then being able to attack effective from outside and in...this is the future of PvP...these hybrid fighters

No Han, that's not the future. We shouldn't have to be ranged as well as melee. Yes, we should have hybrid classes, but that's still no excuse for Pistoleer to have a quicker melee KD than us. No elite profession should have that kind of ability to use an 'uber' combo to destroy people, if all classes don't have it.

I'm saying, the pistoleer can KD and kill me faster than I can even get off the lunge or warcry. Even then, it will take me a few more hits to kill him, while he can do 1000+ damage in one shot.

I'm not talking about effective combinations, nor do I see your vision of the future of melee...being in ranged...
