Me>>>>Master Pistoleer, Desperado(smuggler), BH Pistols
In PvP i use either my Geo pistol or Scatter depending on the armor my enemy is wearing. I open with Panic Shot(10 sec delay), Low Blow (if it sticks it will but u a couple seconds) then let off some Last Ditch shots. Then I focus on whichever HAM bar is lowest using the appropriate special. BH Torso shot with fire DOT for working the Health Bar or BH eye shot for the Mind bar(these are great finishers). i also have some BH carbine skills so if need be i switch to my cabine and use leg shot to work the Action Bar(rarely if ever used)

Last ditch is the best thing that has happened to me in PvP. when i PvP i start with my geo eye shot (usually it does not work). i then use last ditch with the geo, most of the time this is enough. but in the off chance those fail (along with other tactics such as DOTs etc.) last ditch with a launcher pistol is unstoppable (dont like to use LP unless last resort cause sometimes it will lag me so bad i get whuped). It can take down an "uber 1337" melee defense stacker in literally seconds, not to mention how wonderful it is on a turret.
getting back to the point...most people say speed is an issue with this attack but it really isnt. with a mediocre speed pistol (say 3.0 or lower) you will have no problem reaching cap so long as your skill mods are capped. It is definately worth the additional SP for that extra couple hundo dmg.

why is the launcher pistol so good? it doesnt have any ap nor a high dmg. i have the "elite pistoleer" tamplate which gives me every pistol, it would make more sense to me that the geo pistol would do better then the launcher.
15 LDs with the LP and you got yerself a solo'd atst.

panic shot is no longer a "delay"
it simply makes your target unable to attack, so long as he or she or it is not attacked.... it's useful for crowd control and for running away from a situation where you find yourself outmatched

in pvp tho u cna still be attacked while feign deathing, its just that u cant get db'd. so all it does in pvp is allow ur opponent to completely destroy the armor u have on.

I hope we're gonna get an update soon on the combat rebalance. Been a pistoleer since almost release and have been hanging on to it just hoping it would rock someday.
