I was trying it tonight and it nowseems to be faster and do more damage per shot than stopping shot or fanshot. It hits multiple targets but still doesnt show on the combat window.


Anyone else noticed this?

I have been using it actually. It has, for about 3 weeks, been hitting multiple targets. It still act wierd though. It actually moves your primary target around to other targets, in 360 degrees, within range. what ever that is.


It will hit all the targets around you, but the one it targets take the most damage. But sometimes, if I'm spamming it, it will clear the combat que, like my target is invalid. Not sure whats going on there.


I will have to check it out, and pay attention to the damage.

If people could start testing this that would be cool. I had a funny feeling we were going to get some quiet love

The clearing of the combat que would be if your target died. So if you're saying it changes the target and one dies, that would negate all the shots applied to it right?

Yep, any specials queued when the MOB you have targeted is dead is cleared out. It's just nice to know that the Dev's are secretly working on fixing a Master Gunfighter special thats buggy.

Maybe.. maybe not. I have a chat log here. I equipped a looted pistol and went to town on some thugs on the outskirts of a city. Contrary to what you might think looking at the log, I never intentionally switched my target. In every single one of these shots (EDIT: aside from the first, I think), I was within 32m of both targets.


Sorry about the word wrapping messing up the lines.. there doesn't seem to be any way to control it. Sometimes the forums go down to the next line, sometimes they go down 2 lines. If anyone can tell me how to control this, I'd be thrilled.

It looks like it's hitting multiple targets consistently when you are out in the open, but if your line of sight is obsructed to one or more of the targets, it gets really funky really fast. It could be as simple as a line of sight error that is causing so much confusion. Looking at this log out in the open, I'd say it works.

Yes, it works well in the open but what it looks like to me is that when there is line of sight blockage it thinks you can't see ONE of the targets so it fails to attack or damage ANY of the targets and clears the queue.

I have noticed that Multi Taget Pistol shot seems to hit in a 360 degree radius rather than a cone effect as well. But also it seems to only work that way maybe 25% of the time. Otherwise it works as a normal shot that's not that powerful.

I played around with this a little today and didnt notice much of a change. The damage/speed still looks the same (although more extensive testing would have to be done to be sure) and the cone was working OK. With that being said, I was using it in a wide open area, and never was at a point where my line of sight was interrupted. More tests need to be done to be sure, but these were my *casual* observations I made today.
