Pistoleer Archive

Well said Andara. I am collecting the different types of pistals myself for just that reason. And to the person who said the fwg5 doesn't have good damage on average. Look at mine after slicing. 126-247 2.0spd. Best I've seen on ANY pistal, on just that alone not considering AP.

I have a pretty good DX2 now and like it for things with high heat resist. My striker is pretty week and I have not seen better. Anyone have much use with the striker? What do you use it against, that has so high resists to non kenetic?

And as far as the limited range on SRCombat. Well you will all hate me I'm sure, but that's the problem with pistals in this game. They need to cap off ALL pistals under 64m. I'm thinking at 30m they start getting major penalty, and you can't attack at more then 40m with a pistal. This would help solve the problem of the rifles dmg and distance issues. Not to mention be realistic. Has anyone actually tried shooting a pistal with any accuracy at more then 50 ft? You do realize that 30m is 90 feet right? We should not be able to shoot our pistals at 50 and 60m with any kind of accuracy. I'm both rifleman and pistoleer, and that's how I feel about it.

I also have a Power5 pistol that was very nice...... somwhere around 80-222 2.6 speed after slicing. I like both my SR combat and the power5 for energy i just figured maybe it was a bug that the SR combat is capped at 48m since all other pistols are not.

Stiker oddly enough is what I use at the rancor caves. I happened to have one that i bought cheap and sliced for practice. Rancors have low or no (cant remember which) kinetic resists so my stiker worked very well. As for the SR and the tangle armor piercing I thought was still bugged or is that just the armor on the dx2? and I've come accross a couple of mobs that have only stun as vulnerability. Yes the range and speed are inhibative but I would use one with a good slice and power up over a weapon that has high resists any day.
