Thread: PvP question
The KD you saw was probably a Carbineer spamming charge shot.
The other question....I'm kinda....bamboozled...
Do you mean...Is there a type of weapon that is more effective at state attacks? ...or... Is there a profession that offers more state attacks/better state attacks?

The speed cap is 1 second and we hit it with roughly every special when you master marksman as well, unless your T-21 is really slow then it is about 1.2 or 1.3 seconds per. As for the math and that I don't really know specifics on other attacks or what gets multiplied and all that stuff so sorry I'm sure someone else will come along soon.
Also...what where you thinking trying to kill someone below master? Tsk tsk

Hi I was helping defend my city today when a BH DBed me like 3 times in a row..
I was reading the combat spam to try and figure out what I did wrong.. well.. I am not ranting, I just want to learn.
Here is what happend.. in a matter of 3 seconds he did fire knockdown for 300then crippling shot for 491, crippling shot for 912. I was incapped after that and then he DBed..
ok so my questions are.
1. I thought that you couldn't do styles faster than 2 seconds.. can you?
2. Is crippling shot that buff? he was doing 900 dmg to me with it, I was knocked down at the time so there is a double damage rule, butI was under the impression that dmg was reduced by 75% in pvp. So he was doing 3600 dmg - 75%, is this wrong? If this is correct then he was doing as much as my t21 does with a 33% max dmg power up on it and headshot 3. In pve i regularly do1500 with headshot 3, times 2 for kd and it is only 3000. But against himI did a measly 160 dmg.
So if I hadn't been knockdown he would have done (1800 dmg - 75%)x2 = (1800 - 1350)x2= 450 .
If this is true, then headshot 3 should work the same. (1500 - 75%) = (1500 - 1125) = 375
Even if I had a knockdown, which I don't. I would still do less damage than him with a T21! O.o Am I wrong here??
I proceeded to do some testing with a friend of mine later.
Using headshot 3 and a t21 max dmg 420, no PU,I averaged around 330 points of dmg on 10 or so shots, with or without a helmet on him. He took out a kaduu, and Idid 1500 dmg in 1 shot, he took out a gurreck, with 40% energy resist, and I did 1380. This is all taken from the numbers in the combat spam only. So my math seems to be right.. I thought we were supposed to be the heavy damage dealer?
This is saying that a BH who can fire 2 times as fast as me at master, which I am not, and can do the same dmg or more??
. The biggest increase is from 4 - 4- 4 - 4 to Master. You'll be owning BH in no-time.Because we have Zero defense v's Knockdown it is one of the best ways to kill us. It sounds like you actually came up against a BH who knows how to use his skills instead of just spamming Eye Shot, which by the way is the second most effective way to kill us 
as we use mind HAM on our specials, we kill ourselves in the end.
As PsycoticChipmunk said, the speed cap for all specials across all Professions is currently 1 second so it is entirely possible for the B.H in question to be able to do this. They are pretty tough one on one, they don't have a lot of defense though which makes them easier to hit in the long run.
Bounty Hunters are designed to be great 1 on 1 damage dealers, they take out Bounty Marks after all. We on the other hand have Area Attacks which is great for dealing large amounts of damage on groups of opponents.
It also sounds like the B.H was using some nice Weaponry
