Pistoleer Archive

I have always been one to try to look at the bright side of the game, and I always felt that being a Master Pistoleer was pretty good. That was until I started getting bored and started doing more PvP........

WE ARE PATHETIC IN PVP!!!!!

Unless you are a Commando, BH, or Combat medic.....you have no chance in PvP.

Im even a Master CH and my pets get destroyed FAST. I wont even use them in PvP anymore.

Commando's are powerfull...and rightfully so. But the mind damage that a BH and Combat medic can do in PvP make them the kings. I dont want to be the best....It would just like to be nice to have a CHANCE when faceing BH's and Combat medics in PvP. I mean come'on.....he's a medic.

Now Im not screaming nerf. Let the BH keep his eye shot. I personally dont want it. I just want my broken skills fixed and maybe brought up to par with other professions.

Shouldn't you pat yourself on the back? you guys were the ones screaming nerf to everyone, now everyone is doing 40-100dmg on every special move in pvp. and 1/3 damage in pve. You guys don't like it?

congrats.

Ummm....no, as a matter of fact we weren't. Could you provide proof that we were?

Halotest you are right...man i get destroyed a lot in PVP even with my pets. Stopping shot never works when you need it. Bodyshot3 is still weaker than Bodyshot2. Even though we can shoot really fast, we cant do jack s--- in the damage. Sure we can hit em with 5000 healthshot2s then run away, but most people that are BHs are also medics so they know firstaid. Eyeshot should be moved to master,ive been killed too many times by BHs that use eyeshot. they should either move it or make it weaker, i have a medic mind and still, 2 shots and im dead. Its crazy. Sometimes im dead before i can get the attack command off for my pet(i need to learn macros, i know). Ive seen so many FWG5s that are better than DX2s. DX2S SUCK! i have a master mad master sliced FWG5 and a DX2 made and sliced by the same people. The freakin FWG5 does so much more damage. I just sold away my DX2 for more than it was worth to a noob and moved on. Pistols need to move much much faster in order for us to actually kill some people.

OK flame it, i know there are people out there waiting to tear this post to shreds and 1 star me to hell.

40-100 damage??? Thats funny....eye shot seems to be working fine. The usual 5 hits and im down. Not to mention the mind poison that does about 350 per tic. So what exactly are you talking about?

In defense of the Bounty Hunter profession. With the amount of work you have to do to become a BH why the hell shouldn't they fight well? As for pistoleers I wouldn't say they suck. As a bounty hunter and a bit into pistoleer I know that I do more damage with stopping shot than i've ever done with eyeshot or torso shot. As for commando's they also have to master marksman which is a lot more work than pistoleer. I'm not trying to bash pistoleers just saying they have to go up one tree rather than 5 or 8. Trying both pistoleer and BH I can tell you that pistoleer definately doesn't suck.

Its funny, from the StarWars Galaxies strategy guide the very last line in the pistoleers description is this:

"Only fools laugh at the Master Pistoleer" -Jeff Sanders

I wonder if he was being serious?

commandos get more combat training that BH's...

I am not bashing BH's. Or anyone at all. Im just saying that in PvP....we are a joke. Thats all.

PS.

As for pvp since the patch i've been doing 50 dmg max with eyeshot.

lol have you even played/logged on post-patch?

There was an additional 75% PvP damage reduction in this patch. The Devs have acknowledged that this is a bug and are trying to fix it ASAP.

Not usless. Go get a Krayt FWG5 Slice it good and throw a power up on it once in a while. I'm at 1.0 72-229 which in real life means 1400-1600 damage stopping shot on a Bantha. Cost me some money for the gun but now i can shut-up. Don't concern your self with PvP. I find it overrated. Plus todays PvP is screwed up anyway. I just kill every creature that pops up on radar, take its resources then sell them back to you. If you REALLY care about PvP go commando or BH or go play counterstrike. I prefer to be part of a good hunting group and am now finding the beauty in some of the Doctors out there who are TOTALLY on the ball when it comes to combat healing.
