Thread: Dual-wielded Pistols! TH confirms (booya!)

Ho man. I'd pick up Fencer for that. Pirate style!
Ooooh, Equilibrium style even.
Hmm, I wonder if this will be implemented DnD style, where you suffer accuracy depending on your skill with dual-weilding. I'm going to hazard a guess that specials will probably work where one is fired out of a gun, then the next in que instantly fires without waiting for the first gun to recharge.
Then again, this is purely speculation since we know next to nothing other than, "it's coming."
A fencer has his animations set up... and they use one sword. To say that fencers will get duel weapons is sortof misleading and leaves a lot of questions... the same questions that pistoleers probably have. Right now you have one pistol, it has speacials and a corresponding multiplier... many people have stated previously.. well... odds are they are not going to magically double your dps by having both pistols fire off this special... and even more insanely... for a fencer to use 2 swords, every special a fencer has will have to be changed... SOOOOOO
I see two possibilities.... either we're looking at a soley auto-fire sortof weapon, granted to high level fencers or pistoleers who equip a second weapon... OR....
If they are serious about it... then I'd be more inclined to think elite-elite professions... since the developers are so intent on making us use skill points to reflect getting more stuff.. I'm less inclined to believe they'll just give any advantage over anyone else without paying for it, some way or another..
obviously just talk and no facts.. but that's all the player base ever has

Sure. As long as you don't cry when you can't wield 2 scatters since they are handcannons and not dual-wieldable pistols.
*shrug*
How very cool.
I just started working with pistols a little over a week ago, and had never stuck my nose into this forum before, and the idea hit me one night - "how COOL would it be if we could use two of these things at master!?!?!?" ^_^
I'd never thought about fencers, but THAT would be neat too. My original thought was master only, in pistoleer and smuggler, but a fencer with two swords...whoo, boy!
I'm just one of those incessantly cheerful people who doesn't whine about broken specials, nerfs, exploits, and whatnot. =P I think this would just be the BEST. WHEEEEE!!!!!

I think it should be allowed to do more damage with the combination. Pistoleers are sorley hating life without more dmg in and of themselves.
At the time some form of control needs to be placed so this extra damage doesn't equate into last ditch and eyeshot.
Maybe make last ditch a 1 pistol only sorta move, and so bh's don't neccessarily grab this as part of they're foray stick the ability to wield two pistols high up in some line bh's would be somewhat absurd to take..... like accuracy hehe.... or hell just stick it up at masters
