Thread: Pistols need nuking
You sure you're fighting a Master Pistoleer and not an MBH / Master Pistoleer?
Swordsmen do more damage than pistoleers do.
However, you're already at a disadvantage if you don't fight inside of a building, 'cause you'll get kited and rooted.
im master TK and Master SM and by brother is Master BH and master pistols, no matter where we fight even if i get the KD first he will win, he outdamages me by double i dont think apistol should ever get a max damage above 600, thats not fair to riflemen and carbaneers or commando
it should be
pistols max 600 fast speed, ~250 dps
carbine max 750 fast speed, ~300 dps
rifles max 1000 slow speed, ~300 dps
heavy max 800 but with a 30% aoe within 5 meters, ~250 dps to main target and ~75 dps to others
pistols should be fine like this as they have kd and roots and other debuffs
not much of a change for carbines or rifles
heavy weapons need to be badly re-balanced as our aoe only does 1 damage always
Of course I could be entirely wrong about the weapons, but you didn't supply that information now, did you?

What the bloody hell are you on about, man?
Now you guys know how nerf calls feel! They aint fun are they?-JK
(Actually what would probably fix that meleer problem is tweeking the way defense stats reduce damage and makes people miss. A little bit of both should help.)
What would fix the pistol problem is making all ranged weapons equal in Range, Speed, Damage, and SAC. Give me a good reason why this should not be done.The current system does not add tactics, it just makes certian weapons better then others.

It does add tactics, its just that they aren't obvious. pistol ARE better than rifles in some situations, just not many. he thing is that when you use a pistol properly, they shine. I would never use a rifle as my BH killing weapon of choice. why? simple. I don't need the range, in fact on 90% of my hunts, the innate acc penalties of a rifle are unacceptable. Sac cost. I can max out weapons max damage and still have lower than a rifles min sac. lack of kinetic damage, the shock value of the first shots to a BH are invaluble, can't waste them punching througha PSG, rifleman have no level 54 kinetic weapons that aren't species specific. You know what the reall killer for me is? the speed encumberence, the difference between a rifle one and a pistol means the difference between winning or losing when kiting somone.
/sarcasm on
are you a jedi? why i want to know? easy only jedi obtain what they want ....
look at changes for bh
next nerf ? mmm i think mrifle classcause they can easy kill jedi
sadness...
/sarcasm off
in games there are pup (powerup) that greatly increase damage of my guns
and at last please if you are thinking that mswod didn't deal damage than pistol or ther classes... didn't ask the nerf of other classes
live well and let live (logically in the game) well other classes and start to pray for swordsman revamp
