Yeah, I find that I continually get better bleeds when I'm running from the creature than when I'm prone and there's a +45 over his head. Why does this always happen?

So you're saying that accuracy has nothing to do with how much damage we are inflicting? So basically, I will hit for the same damage at 64m that I will hit at 20m?

heck, I wouldn't even mind if the shots I have were random as long as they did something besides damage. disarming shot doesn't do anything, niether does multitarget, or doubletap, or PMD2 or the pointblanks etc. 19 specials (combined with the pistol tree from marksman) and 7 are useful. that's not fair at all. I did fencer with my other character, he's a master brawler and every hit he has is useful. same with my TK skills. I'd like a Dizzy state effect, or a blind, or a ranged intimidate or something.

Double tap does nothing?? I manage to kill quicker useing double tap then any other shoot we have in the pistoleer tree. You match double tap with an fwg5 sliced to 1.3 speed and your punching holes in your target before they know what hit them. Of course you must watch your action HAM becuase at master matched with a 1.3 speed pistol you can chew through it in a blink of the eye.

body shot 2 is just fine on just about anythign on endor (i prefer fanshot) unles you are master and have a very fast pistol and can use bs3..... i still think i kill equally as fast with fanshot though, when my pets tank.

I just want a specific HAM attack that can output 1000-1300 dmg per hit (PvE), BodyShot 2 can't do that. I can hit upwards of 1500 with StoppingShot (andeven FanShot) but sometimes it will spread over all three HAM bars sometimes it will hit one, sometimes it won't even touch Health. We need to have some attacks that make us more than just a "supporting profession".

Why not just demand a special that does 5000 damage to all pools simultaneously ten times per second


Even carbineers don't have what you're asking for, and they are twice as slow. It's a pistol for God's sake. It's not supposed to be super powerful. It's supposed to be, and IS, really fast and good at close range.


I honestly don't know where you guys are getting this idea that the other weapon professions have more pool specific specials than pistoleers. They are all the same -- 3 targeted single shots and 2 bleeds.
