Ok maybe someone can answer this because I didn't get anything from the CSR. I fought a dune kimo one night and it hit mostly health (I had 40 dodge) then I used 22% air cake and it started hitting my mind mostly. Air cake wears off and back to health hits. I thought dodge would increase COMPLETE misses more not change which HAM is hit.
in pvp you are going to be fully buffed, and the only way you are going down is mind. use the skillpoints somewhere else. better yet, just drop all of pistoleer because it is so pathetic right now.

I'm currently Master pistoleer/BH pistols 4 and I find eyeshot to be the most effective special in my arsenal. Eyeshot with a nice Geo works well. I've taken all sorts of opponents down with it. Mind buffs aren't always easy to come by when your rushing to meet an overt oppenent and the mind pool is usually the weak link for many opponents, unfortantely eyeshot is the only way we can target the mind. Bang in bleeds with a modified republic then head for the mind with a Geo, obviously mind buffs and brandy will help you a lot along with synthsteak and a PSG. I have a full set of high base comp armour with a high stun special protection. As long as I'm not lagged and can Kite melee opponents it's rare that I get taken out by single opponents!
Last ditch is a strong attack but it is a random HAM hit. I must admit I'd like to try it with a Geo though.
Well, again please keep in mind that I am talking about skilled pvpers not guys that run around without proper preparation. In my case I rarely go out looking for a pvp fight without entertainer buffs and brandy and canape with a muon or nuetron pixie waiting.
I had and thoroughly tested BH pistols with master pistoleer. I used a 440 scatter and only a 330 geo. I really wanted it to work, but in the in end you just dont have enough defenses. Right now if I decided not to put you on your back with suppression fire coupled with dizzy, I would still have my 700 T21 or 620 acid rifle or 400 jawa all hitting your mind or whatever is weakest at the speed cap. I would put a stun and intimidate on you as well. If your armor is high on stun then it low on other areas. It wouldn't take long to figure that out. As much as I hate it, I doubt you could stand under that kind of punishment.
... At least I couldn't when I had it..
