Good idea! My Pistoleer friend has CH and a 7k HAM kitty too... I think I'll head that way next!
DeathInPlaid, nerf bat in hand (if only the devs would give me one, then we'd ALL be wielding axes)
PS - calling someone hitler is EXTREMELY offensive to people of German decent. I'm not of German decent, but if I was, BOY HOWDY you'd get a talking to!.
Oh be quiet. Hitler wasn't even a German. And before you say something stupid in reply to that and flame me, you should have paid attention in world history class.
Besides, I'm not insulted as an American if someone calls someone else a Ted Bundy.
Anyone that spams pistol whip is either a macrohound or just doesnt want to pay attention I have found that by using it every 4 or 5 regular shots I save on the pistol wear, take down the mob faster, and survive.
Anyone who thinks it always works hasnt fought anything real tough cuz there are plenty of times even with Baz Nitches that I miss a few and the mobs all over me. Pistol whip in PvP is no worse then the TKA dizzy attack or about 5 other skills that are spread across the professions. Yes it sucks when you cant do anything during a fight but you know what else sucks 3 rancors or one shot head kills should we nerf everything hell why dont we all just make the same human characters wear nothing and fight with bare hands that would make the battles longer and more fair. Nerfing is not the answer.
"DeathInPlaid, I'm sorry if you keep getting owned by Pistoleers but it's simpletons like you who lack the skill to play your own profession and screem nerf for all otherprofessions that destroy the balance in these games. Go back to your brawler board, your criticism is neither constructive nor wanted."
Its a fact meleedefense1 OWNS A TKM asin MASTER duel one some time...bet you win just with the but of your weapon.
Heres what happens when a pistoleer and a TKM duel who ever gets the first shot ussually wins although the TKM has the advartage becuase of there defenses against knockdown.
Who ever challenges the other one to the duel will ussually lose becuase the person challenged gets the first shot nad sense both have knockdowns guess which skill both will start off with.
I guess the issue is not so much with pistol whip per se, but with knockdown skills in general. As it is, knockdown trivializes combat against all but the most powerful mobs (dark jedi, nightsisters, Dragons), and reduces PVP to a contest of who can get the first knockdown.
Knockdown in general will be nerfed. There is no question of that in my mind. However, pistoleers can take comfort in the fact that almost every combat class will be effected.

I'm just starting pistyoleer and don't have pistol whip yet, but couldn't you just hotkey a crappy pistol for when you want to pistol whip? Sure it would be slower, but if it saves my nice pistol why not? Hehe, one pistol for shooting, the other is basically a hunk of metal for clubbing people.
