Pistoleer Archive

I think the weapons smiths have to imrpove. A friend of mine /artisan) made some very good CDEF pistols and with a decent slice (By me) they came to 44-80 max damage and 3.3 speed. Usually they are 17-35 4.5

Better ask more from you weapon dealer. They should experiment more and use better resources. There is to much crap around that fills the public vendors.

I usually prefer my Kray FWG5. I'll use that until it burns up and then I'll use my other one. When I want to conserve my FWG5 I use my Republic Blaster 90-290 dmg (non-Krayt, with slice). I've got 4 more of the same Republic Blasters (still unsliced). Then my DX2 and DL44 (depends on what mood I'm in). I carry my Tangle and SR Combat around in non-combat situations because I think they look cool (don't use them much unless the mob is easy and I know I can kill it with such inferior weapons). I just got the cert for Launcher Pistol this weekend and have been using that a lot just so I can get Flamethrower Spec. I (Flame Single!). The Launcher is fun though because it causes explosions and smoke and sparks and things. It's cool, and I can basically shoot it at the cap speed.

Speaking of Flamethrowers, I just bought one with around 500-1068 max damage, 4.6 speed. I wasn't really planning on using much of the Commando prof (really just wanted the Launcher Pistol cert) but the appeal of the FT sucked me in!

Too late

One thing I just recently found out about is that the WS can add things like scopes, muzzles, and stocks onto weapons for:

1) a unique look to the weapon

2) added to hit bonus, damage, etc.

It's basically like a permenant powerup added to the weapon but the weapon must be crafted by hand. I also got some carbines with stocks and scopes and muzzles added onto them...not only does it create some nice damage spread and to hit bonuses but the guns look like real guns...just really got me into the game again.
