I like your idea. Put them on the Master level to make Masters have that as a reward. Reading the posts about the new combat revamp it seems like they might move the weapon certs around which would be an awesome idea IMO.

I've always loved the look of the DL44 myself. To bad they are not very powerful. I still use it anyway cause of the look.

I have no complaints with the Pistols we have now.


We get more types of damage than any other profession.


3 or 4 types of energy, stun, acid, heat and kinetic.


I would like to think that should be enough no?


My DX2 is my favorite gun. I understand that not all servers have the same quality of weaponry due to the resource shifts, and the fact that every Weaponsmith in the game is grinding holos.


All the weapons you mentioned are Bounty Hunter weapons.


Riflemen get one cert at master, as do Carbiniers. Why would we get more?

I'm pretty sure that's only one type of energy. Our weapon cert comes at Novice. The DX2 is a terrible weapon unless you are at 0m. See the "What's wrong with the DX2?" thread. I'm sure that all the weapon classes will be getting new weapon certs so this is not too much for us to ask.

Man I'd love to be able to duel wield Westar34's.../drool, That would be awesome reward for making master pistoleer Dual Wielding!!!

Just because the BH's in the movies used em doesn't mean they should be BH weapons. Han Solo used a DL44, should that make it a smuggler weapon?

Hehe... I meant, 3 or 4 types of Energy weapons.


Power5


DL44


Scout


Republic..


Get what I mean now? Sorry for confusing anyone.


Also, I use my DX2 almost exclusively. Last night I hit a Canyon Krayt from 45m out 4 times in a row with a Stoppingshot, and bled it right after.


Who's making the guns you guys use anyway?

I also meant Novice Pistoleer/Carbine/Rifle, is where all certs are granted. All ranged professions get one at Novice. I think this is fair, but ALL ranged professions should get more weapons. I am sure this is coming soon though anyway.


We really should stop all this nonsense, forget about the game, and demand an edit button!


Seriously though, I don't understand the issues with the DX2. Maybe I should read around before making such statements, but I never miss.


I suppose, in the earlier stages of Pistoleer I may have missed here and there, but I also recall the DX2's at the time were horrid, and with the pre-nerf FWG5s, why use anything else?


On Bria, smiths are making some of the best DX2s I ever seen. I never miss anymore.

I think Pistoleers should have the PWN Pistol. It does Energy, Heat, Acid, Stun, Kinetic, Blast, Cold, and Beotch Slap damage. It also has AP10, and +500 at 0m, 20m and 90m. Damage is 4,000-10,000, speed is 0.1 w/o power up or slice. The cert comes with Master Pistoleer and Chef 0400. If a BH tries to use the PWN Pistol it immediately backfires and kills them and their entire guild. It's decay is 0.000001 every 10 years, and it makes a mean grilled cheese sandwich.




Uhhh is there some kind of big fight between BH and Pistoleers that i am unaware of?

How about about pistoleer gets a weapon thats better than them FWG5.Instead of nerfing FWG5s the Devs should fix The Elite/hybrid class pistols like Scatter,and DX2.

I use my SR alot, mostly because of the great 35% damage slice I got on it. Now, while I am a dabbler (flame away) I do it mostly because I like what I get out of 0040 bh, 0044 pistoleer, and 1002 carbineer (will be getting up to 4002 in carbineer one day). My SR has great damage range being only, I think, about 80 points between min and max. My scatter pistol Wynonna is also a nice weapon. It's pr-nerf krayt scatter...and yes its name is actually Wynonna...I luv her to death.
