The real problem is the best weapon of any bounty hunter is his mind and unfortunately soooo many of you are unarmed.
Did Bobo (the best BH in all the galaxy) try and take Han on head to head... Nope
Did he have trouble taking out Luke who was not great with a pistol... Yes
Did he jump in the middle of the fight at Jabbas.... Nope
He was smart, and did not rush into things like an idiot.
It boggles me to think that because you spent time learning carbine, lightening cannon, investigation, and pistol the lot of you think you should win any fight.
The reality is you should lose any duel you enter against a specialist with his chosen weapon. Use your mind and put the hunt in your favor.
"DOH!" There is a qoute that works. Skill tree=words
XP=no
Skill points=yes
understand=I don't give a flying rat's ass
horse=dead
discussion=over
I don't care what your points are, there are many valid points on both sides.
The fact is that by design BH is an expert at killing, not only good with a weapon. The pistoleer advantage is that they can have many professions, and that is the real balance.
And btw, for your information, because many of you are ignorant, a BH can still KD spam from 64 meters away. So basically, as soon as a BH gets his first shot in, the duel is over. All that's needed is good macros and a cdef carbine.
Sad but true.
Also, if you had read your profession's description before playing maybe you would have realised that pistoleers aren't the all mighty power of the galaxy. Commandos and BH are.
Bounty hunters should be one of the toughest professions to take down. Pistoleers can add a lot of skills to their profession such as Creature handling and medic skills, so on and so forth. Yet...Pistoleers should be the best pistol users, does that not make sense? Seems to me Bounty Hunters want to be able to beat a master pistoleer with their pistol, they want to beat a master carbineer with a carbine, and they want to beat a master rifleman with a rifle. Heh.
You are a hybrid. You are jack of all trades (in this case weapons) and a master of NONE. You have great specials and mods. This is all fine and dandy, the way it should be. But cmon, you got better pistol skill mods and pistols than a master pistoleer with 1/3 of the experience? Please...Im a pistoleer, I won't even attempt to duel you with a carbine or rifle. That is where you win, you use the right weapon for the right battles....but nooo, you want to be 3 elite professions all rolled into one.
"horse=dead"
rather:
horse=pulled out of grave, raped, mutilated, and skinned alive.
You guys have fun now.
