Thread: DEV Response to the DE-10 and Pistoleers

It's a little late to be "tweaking" the potency of the DE-10 now, isn't it?
They've run a few smaller conversions on items that were missed/screwy after the initial big conversion.
I'm sure they'll need at least one more. So they could potentially sneak in a tiny DE-10 boost if they really loved us.
Just want to chime in here in case the devs are looking at this.
My Crafting prof (Armorsmith) allready had all its guts ripped out of it, making it a tedious, un-fun chore.
Now what was my best AND most plentyful gun pre CU is now the 4th best gun in my arsenal. As a part of the CU "Alpha Test" (dont get me started on THAT!) we as well as all those in live were told 'what was a great weapon before the CU will be a great weapon after the CU'. So not the case with the DE-10. I spent ALOT of time and money getting barrels and schematics (yes I did the DWB with just Pistoleer!) with the hope that post CU Pistoleer would be a vialbe profession AND the DE-10 would remain the elite of elite pistols.
Allow us to break them down to get our tissue back at the very lest if it stays this gimped weapon. Its very sad when my non krayt DX2 is better than my DE-10 with +120 tissues.
Also, from what I am hearing, the intimidator pistol is being considered "the best" pistol now. Very high DPS, But how many will take squad leader just to get it?
PreCU>>> 3 ADKed, very expensive, very sweet, and much worked for pistols that I loved
PostCU>> Garbage. garbage. garbage.... my oneDX2 is now my best weapon..heheheheheehehe

dropped pistoleer after 1 year.....grrrr
Really, our professian isn't even there anymore... I feel the downgrade just slumped everything together.
As I said, I'm better off using a so-so carbine than I am using a pistol. Our professian is no longer a professian but rather a collection of specials that are best used with anything but a pistol.
I feel like a fool not giving up pistols.

I don't like the roots and snares.
As a pistoller they are dangerous to us. In PvP a RM or Carbineer can root us then attack from the distance.
In PvE you're better off rooting and using a carbine or rifle than the pistol. Only time the pistol is useful in PvE is when it's close up combat.
I feel with the downgrade altogether we pistollers got cheated.
Which is why I'm a Pistoleer with SL... E5 certification FTW!
What is it with guns being spread all over place?
"Or, as someone else said in this thread, a timer should be implemented so that a person can not be rooted more than once in half a minute or whatever."
This is a much better solution, they should be immune for as long as the timer currently runs. If root and snare would break on damage, it will just be a useless action drain, action that ill use on a damaging shot instead. And whats the deal with the KD timer? Right now i get up 0.5 seconds after i get KD so remove the KD timer and insert a Root timer
/agree
Don't forget that we are all"Customers" and as a customer i ask for consideration..if dev's thinks that we're all chips they do a mistake.
a such loss of timeand money (IG and IRL) forpistoleers players is unjustified ...why there's no dev's words on it?
It's a shame!!!!!!

My best DE-10 still is adk'd, it's max dam is somewhere arround 760 but it would just hurt too much to destroy it. I have pistols that come close to 1k damage with over 500 dps that i havent used yet but for some reason i can't kill me DE-10 to get my adk back.
I can sympathize, Fytos. I have a DE-10 that was really nice pre-CU, so I ADK'd it, and it's just mediocre now. I have some far better weapons that I'd like to put the ADK on now, but I just can't bring myself to destroy the DE-10 to get the ADK back.
Quest weapons usable by everyone? What's the deal with proton carbine & rifle being master certs then, there's quite a few loot/quest weaps that need certain boxes.
