Pistoleer Archive

Hi there everyone, im seriously considering becoming a pistoleer and i need some input on a template idea i had. It is :

Master Pistols

BH 0 0 2 0 - for speed and eye shot

Smuggler 0 0 4 0 - gives me ranged kd, melee mitigation, feign death and last ditch.

Master marksman - speed and bh requirement

Scout 4 0 0 0 - bh requirement and allows me to run up hills faster

Novice medic - the ability to heal my self a little when neededed

Brawler 4 0 0 0 - allows me to intim and is a requirement for smuggler.

I have worked it all out on alakhazams character builder and it is certainly do-able So what do you all think ? Any suggestions ? And please dont suggest tkm or any other melee proff either for damage or for defs as i have been melee since launch and im boored of it.

As an alternative i could take the same template but without the brawler and smuggler parts but with the addition of: Bh 0 0 4 4 and medic 44 0 0 - this would let me use the llc against super battle droids in pve and give me a bit more pistol speed as well as letting me heal for more dam more frequently.

Whatever happens i will be mainly pvp but with some element of high level pve.

Your template sounds good. However, since you already have master marksman and 4/0/0/0 brawler, I think you should find and extra 6 skill points somewhere to get commando. This will enable you to have blast damage.Though the launcher pistol is only AP0,it is only 6more skillpoints, and it gives youan extradamage type which will should help you in PvE.

Also, if you put additional points into medic, I would suggest 4/0/4/0 or 0/4/4/0, as this and a +1 medicine use SEAwould enable you to use stim Ds, instead of the stim Bs you would otherwise have to use..

I would like to add that there is no reason to get BH pistol IV if you are master pistoleer unless you want torso shot. At 100 speed, you will shoot any weapon at the speed cap, and having BH pistols II gives you 99, so any more speed would be a waste.

That's similar to the build I'm doing right now-

Bh pistol 4,

master pistoleer,

smuggler pistol tree,

novice commando(not enough points to get medic, might as well get launcer pistol)

this gives me every pistol box in the game except the master bh box! I can't wait to get done and try it in pvp.

I would like to take a minute to point out that anything I may have written in the above post in no way reflects badly on SOE or any of its affiliates, and in fact I am ecstatic and overjoyed that I am able to participate in such a well-programmed, bug-free, and engaging game with such wonderful and helpful forums moderated by such fine and upstanding people. Please don't permaban my account. Thankyou.

I doubt it will work too effectively, but it includes some of the abilities that I tend to enjoy, so anyway, this is my planned template.

Master Lightsaber

Defender 4/4/0/0

Healer 4/1/0/0

Enhancer 4/0/0/4

I know it wont be great in PvP (especially against other jedi), but I mostly PvE anyway, and once I finish my template I dont care about bounty hunters.

Better saber damage is coming with publish 18, and I hate waiting for force to regen, thats why I include meditate. Force run seems necessary, possibly even not needing a vehicle in certain instances.

Defender 4/4/0/0 isnt Mdefender because the other two trees dont seem to be very focused on anything but force powers, and state defense, which I usually dont need often.

Healer (I like healing people)

Please tell me what you think of this template, I would like to know if anyone thinks if it would stand a chance againstan average bounty hunter, or would it not even work well in PvE, I want to know, as I am not a very knowledgeable jedi, only an old one.

With MLS i'd say it'd be a crime not to have xxx4 Defender for Valour, that'd be 75% Saber block with that sucker running. How can you say no
