Pistoleer Archive

What weapon were you using? I was hunting on Dathomir last night and did fine with the usual Fan Shot, Stopping shot use. I have a small macro set up for aim,Healthshot2, bodyshot3, bodyshot3...but didn't notice it doing that much damage.

Also, has anyone tested that Healthshot1 and Healthshot2 no longer stack?

(Forgive the Noob pistoleer questions, I've been a merchant and politician for many months...just learning the fighting skills.)

I was using a 298dmg 1.6 speed Mod. Repubic blaster or a 230 dmg featheweight fwg51.2speed

Yeah I noticed this too. I was doing 500-600 regularly with HealthShot 2 (using a regular, sliced DX2). While FanShot and StoppingShot were doing more damage, HealthShot 2 always hits Health now (and is faster) so I have started using it instead of StoppingShot. I hit Dathomir looking for 120K XP to get my last pistoleer box and I got it in about40-45 minutes. Never even got to my missions, just killed stuff on the way to the first one.

This may not have been a Pistoleer fix but I will gladly take it.

Yes, I had all but giving up my MCH with pistoleer due to the last nerf the CH got. So I read about how they were fixing Pistoleer abit, so gave it a try again, and all I have to say is....WOW....I kicked arse, what a difference. Makes playing that toon viable again.

Hey, it's my zoo, so don't tease the animals

since healthshot2 now hits the health pool, its pretty fast, and has good damage, its probably going to be the new spam shot.

carbineers are starting to use actionshot2 a lot now, similarly.

The other day, I was using a PreNerf FWG5 stopping shot was hitting for 2K dmg easy, when my hunting partner a TKM used warcry and Intim successfully I was hitting for almost 3000 dmg. No pup, no enhancers, just me and a TKM.

My combat macro is HS2, HS1, Stoppingshot *10

I heard they fixed that, do they still steal xp? Otherwise I won't bother for another 300k pistol xp using HS2.

well they were stealing mine last night

Im pretty confident stopping shot is still the way to go though. In the calculator if you plug my scatters stats in stopping shot hits for nearly 1300 i believe. But hitting and bleeding one pool could have its obvious advantages

I noticed the same thing yesterday while taking on rancors on Dath. I usually do healthshot2 twice, healthshot1 twice, bodyshot a couple of times, then start going to town with fan shot. I noticed healthshot2 doing lots of damage, so I just kept using it. May be a bug since it was not addressed in any of Publish 7. I hope it's a bug the devs dont' fix.
