Thats pretty weak Ratlif, you can easily...laughably easily handle 30k missions on Dant. It doesnt take too long to earn lots o cashola doing that. Pistoleer can handle anything that most other proffs can, it just takes a bit longer.

Not missions. Missions are chump change. I am talking about the high level loot drops from high level content. Fencer and Pistoleer each against lets say a Krayt. 1000 on the fencer coming out of it.

I've had it with pistoleer. I just started playing again after an 8 month break and now Im reminded as to why I left in the first place. Takes a long time to master pistoleer and creature handler and they both suck, I just knew CH would be nerfed to obsoletion and nothing would be done with pistoleer. Seriously, I was gone for a long time and nothing at all has changed for us. I just got novice rifleman today and with a sliced t21 Im taking down mobs and lairs way faster than I ever have with my pistols. I was headed back to town after doing a mission and stopped to watch a tka student (student!) hop off his bike in the middle of 5 janta's and decimate them all in less than a minute without a scratch on him. What the hell has happened to this game??

Ya the combat is in a pretty sorry state here. Before all the crazy buffs(food and doc), pistoleer wasnt soo bad because the low HAM costs of specials usually meant that you could execute more of them. Nowadays you'd either have to be;
-out of your mind
-a die-hard pistoleer orrr.
-a MBH fluffing up his template
to make having pistoleer worth it.
Despite that I like pistoleer, its got IMO one of the best AE Cone specials in the game, but Im starting to feel like its not enough. In fact, I'm starting to get so bummed out by the combat revamp and smuggler revampdelays and stupid "fixes" that SOE seems intent on doing that I'm for the first time starting to consider just quiting the game.

Ya ok, a single TKA should be able to laywaste to hordes of Enraged Rancors. That seems right...I guess... If you assume that the game exists solely for the TKA. TKAs and most melee are so unbelievably unbalanced that its not even funny...its sad...really pathetic.
