Take a look at the In Concept Thread Thunderheart posted regarding Pistoleers in combat.

Let's make sure the voices of real pistoleers are heard over the din of the subtly disguised nerf herders. (some carbineer groupie recommended 32m max range... sheesh...)

I would suggest we all just post links to the top5 sticky on this forum. I can't believe they are asking us the same questions again. Did they not hear us the first 6 times?

Now you know how commandos feel... except cut that inhalf and break all your other guns I hope we can get some cool stuff out of all of this, perhaps this will provide some cool new ideas for expanding upon the profession. I'd post some comments myself right now, but I'm still relatively new to the profession so I'm going to wait a bit before commenting.

Maybe our damage (or accuracy?)should be cut like 1/3-1/4 if we go over 32m? But anything below that, it's full damage.


But I agree with most of what is getting posted (dual wield, most accurate ranged profession, etc.)

Lowering accuracy would make alot more sense than cutting your range outright. Come to think of it, the maximum distance for throwing grenades in-game is 32m, so that would still be far too short for being accurate with a hand-gun.

I think their problem isn't that our range is too far...it's that rifleman and carbineer's ranges are too short. The problem there is that the dev's are too retarded to code in a scope or something to allow a player to register creatures from long distances.

Just to clarify, I think we should fight more under 35m but not by way of reducing our max range. They should give us cool stuff to entice us to fight more in that range
