Thread: Anyone else pissed that BH have a better pistol than Pistoleers?
Fahd Krath Master Bounty Hunter/Master Jedi StalkerWow, the original poster hasn't even been here a month yet. Much to learn you still have.
Scatters, along with FWG5 and Launchers, were toned way down the patch before last. The DX-2 was improved, or so I hear.
Scatter Vs. DX-2
AP: 1 (Both)
Damage Type: Acid (Both)
Min/Max Damage: ?
Accuracy: ?
Ham Costs: ?
The stuff in ? means it is a variable that can be adjusted with loot, quality of resources, skill of the weaponsmith and so on. Take your best loot, takeit to the best smith. Have her make a Scatter and DX-2.If the DX-2 has major failings compared to a run of weapons made today, tell your correspondentand get that fixed.
And the best pistol in the game is arbitrary. I wouldagree with an earlier poster andsay a Krayt enhanced Geonosian Pistol is the "best" pistol in the game. AP 0 Stun damage with high Min/Max Damage.
And to the guy rehashing that Scout Skill Points doesn't count becuase it's not combat and does yield combat related skills. It isn't what those boxes yield it's the fact of what could we get with those SP if they weren't required in Scout. The game limits me to mastery of one profession when I choose BH, thus I must rely on the content of one profession when I play SWG and if that content is solely combat, I better be damn good at it.
If it's all the same to you, let me drop the whole Scout tree. Hey it's not combat related, it's certainly not BH related, we all agree on that. So why do I need it now? Yeah, let me get back those SP and dabble them into Carbineer/Pistoleer/Riflemen so I can make Bh the offense powerhouse it was meant to be.

Maybe, but there is a better pistol still. Best thing about the scatter is that it only needs one Krayt tissue to enhance it, instead of 3, 4 or 5 (damn DX2, Sonic Blaster *shakes fist*).

As stated throughout this thread, BH's don't get the mods pistoleers do, and have to spend a lot more skillpoints.

Until recently the range mods on them were horrible. Most pistoleer's that complain about the scatter still probablly aren't aware of the new DX2's. Both do acid, if thats your thang.
