BAH! The fix is already in for today...

Oh well, at least I had fun last night. Synopsis:

"See that Mutated Kahmurra?"

WHACK!

"See that Tortur Bull?"

WHACK!

"...Oh **edit**! Torturs pack assist now!"

WHACK! WHACK! WHACK!

"Holy **edit**; this is **edit**ing sweet!"

Hehe, they were staying down for me indefinitely last night. They only got up when it was time for low-life fleeing. I finally got revenge on those wicked droidekas on Lok. Unfortunately this didn't work with the NPC mobs, just creatures. Oh well, was fun while it lasted.

Sounds like fun,but pistol melee 1 was king since day one

Not after the patch before last it was worthless, as soon as you knocked something down it would get right back up

Yeah I had some fun with that one yesterday, piles of mountian squills at my feet.

Ack!!!!! I hope they do not break it totally. I still need to test it againts kimogillas, rancors and krayts . Seriously though this has been the best loving that pistoleer has gotten in my experience and it does pose some degree of risk, say around 25%, since if you fail to knock the creature down, it is going to ignore your pets and charge at you. Thats how I got diseased by those new voritor lizards in Dathomir. What the devs should do is make the accuracy a bit lower so that it can be exciting knowing that you may knock the big lump down or be paying a visit to the cloning station.

They have already fixed it, the delay is supposed to last for 5 seconds I guess now. Its in the patch notes look under SWG discussion. I knew I should have pulled an all nighter, lol.

hehe looted 3k of OQ yavinian wolly hide, maimens laid out everywhere, ithinki might have a screenof 6 gacklebats with half health taking a nap, i did pull an all nighter lol, veryfun, i felt proud to be a novicepistoleer with only a skill or 2 so far, stinks that its down to 5 secs now though, why did they have to conform to regular numbers? like everthing is 30 or 10 or 5, howabout a 7 second KD, and a 21 second KD timer between, i have how everthing is always 5-10-15-30, how about asome creativity, give the higerlevel KD's 2 extra seconds or something

Did anyone else notice that CSR's were going around last night finding people who were using Pistol Whip?

I had been trying it out on a few mobs on Lok (mostly the Kusaks), and this guy appears out of nowhere and says "CSR. Timestamp 4:05am. my_char_name KD abuse>>>>>>" then he disappears. I assume he took a screen shot. I was probably 3k from Nym's, nobody else out there for miles.

The guys name was Marshall Dillon, he wouldn't reply to tells or anything, it was a driveby attack in a sense

So if they're going to ban/suspend me for using my own pistol attack on a live server, that's pretty lame.

When the bugs are in their favor, we have to tolerate it. When they're in the players favor, that's exploiting, despite the countless millions of xp made when knockdown was equally broken in early history.

We'll see what comes of it, no indication so far that I was "written up".

One thing that interests me, he clearly was snooping people or looking at logs. In the hour or so I was logged in, I hadn't earned enough xp to seem out of place, considering I can make 200K pistol xp a night with my usual group of 4. Perhaps it was because I was playing late at night?

Any other instances? Was Dillon being the "good little CSR, always vigilant" regardless of the action the devs would take against people?

He wasprobablyon orders. But frankly, with the pet armor broken last night, I had to use it or else my hunting partner's grauls would have gotten hosed.

Apparently we have to take the good with the bad, but when we use the good to make up for the bad, its exploiting oh well, it is all fixed now and fairly moot to argue.
