i like it i guess, but its nothing like any other prof. I have +25 to all pistol mods in attachments, and a way too expensive gun collection. That basically makes so i can compete with riflemen 50% of the time.
1. 25% U win against total morons who dont even have the half brain u need to play rifleman
2. 25% U lose against not total morons but morons never the less who have the half brain capacity to play rifleman and will probably spam noob and lol that was easy over your dead body
3. 25% U and your group of 3 get owned by a rifleman who knows somewhat what hes doing but is knew to the prof
4. 25% U and your group of 6 get pzowned by a rifleman who has been a rifleman through all of the hard times and now is enjoying the power and is very proficient in the skills of rifle and will be the only ones not whining when they get nerfed. If they ever
i personally have respect only for group 4 and partial respect for group 3although group 2 makes up most of the rifle comunity who jumped on the band wagon as soon as they could

yeah thats the sad part, when i get killed by a rifleman/cm, have poisons and diseases on all stats, and somehow they think they did something special by picking the most overpowered profs in the game. Any newb can pick up a damage sliced jawa and t21, and kill me way too often. Honestly with all the attachments and guns i have i don't think i should ever loose to a rifleman/tkm(i'm pistol tka for comparison) in a straight up ranged duel.

i had to respond to all this worthless ranting,,,,with some worthless ranting of my own. Do you pistoleers fight rifleman alot? here is some priceless advice,,,,stay close and you win. As long as you have a good pistol and some dodge armor attachments,,,the rifleman wont hit you. Their accuracy at close range is terrible. I beat good rifleman all the time,,,,,,,the true test for me is proffessions witha KD.....now that is a problem. I ussually eat some defense against KD food,,,,but i still lose a good percent of the time.
my two cents

with that "priceless advice" you could beat a noob rifleman/dancer 50% of the time maybe.
but im fighting riflemen CM/doc's the only way i stand a chance in hell is with buffs shield steak brandy muon 40% stun armor. i have 100 knockdown defence and 90 to posture change ranged and melee defence capped as well as dodge. The best guns ive seen or been able to aford. im still a joke.
OK I WILL PUT IT THIS WAY ABOUT THE DAMAGE OF PISTOLEER:...........................
my skills are in my sig, i had a TKM in my guild approach me he wanted to get rid of his buffs so he could rebuff, (the buff over write wasnt working imagine that) so he asked me to kill him, he stood there took all of his armor off. and i proceeded to shoot him. with his buffs i was barely able to do any damage. he wasnt fighting back at all, and the damage i did his buffs were able to regen, so after 5 min of shotting him he went from 3500 ham to only 2900 ham, finally had to have another TKM come kill him. it was down right embarrassing. how the hell do they expect us to PVP doing the damage we do. I was using all my specials DX2, FWG5 with 1.3 speed, Tangle Pistol, R Blaster. still same result, i was just not doing enough damge with his buffs. so do i like the proffesion, i love it. but it needs a lot of work.
He was a TKM and you are not a Master Gunfighter. You are missing all kinds of accuracy and speed modifiers. You probably also are not using the best guns you can.
It is true though that a TKM can soak up the damage of our random HAM specials very well. However with good speed, good guns, and good tactics you should be able to take a buffed up TKM at Master Gunfighter. I know that when I use Last Ditch or Fanshot with my RB, most people's HAMs go down far faster than they go up, even TKMs. This is especially true if they are unarmored.
And for the record, if you know what you are doing vs. a Rifleman and fight smart, you CAN beat them at least 50% of the time. I have fought TKM/Rifleman and won on several occasions.
- Try moving around a lot, never stop and shoot.
- Bring lots of mind food/spice/drink.
- Try to close the distance as much as possible when he is shooting.
- Kite him if he switches to melee. (use low blow or suppression fire to slow his progress)
- ALWAY be buffed.
- Always wear full composite (preferably 80+%).
- Use your strongest special until he is at about half his HAM and then KD him with low blow or pistol whip
Obviously most people already know this stuff. Or at least I would hope I really dont have to explain it :-( The only combo that I have EVER had trouble with is stuff like TKM/CM or Rifle/CM or Swords/CM. The CM can just do more damage (the semi permanent variety) than we can realistically hope to deal with if the fight lasts. Hopefully CM will get the 75% damage nerf eventually.
