Pistoleer Archive

Aim doesn't affect it much but the equipment sure does. There's only 1 pistol with good accuracy beyond 40m; the FWG5. It's a serious action bar hog. I switch off of FWG5 as soon as possible or I just kill myself.

The pistoleer elite weapon is the DX2 and that puppy I wouldn't bring to a fight beyond 30m. It's super solid accuracy at 8m and closer(!!!)

Well, according to the test center forum, pistol whip is being nerfed, along with all other knockdowns. The HAM costs of all knockdowns are being raised:

From Rogue_5:

General pass to melee, polearm, and two handed sword action costs
Reduced the amount of damage by 75% when fighting in PvP
If hit while knocked down the player will take 50% more damage

One other change. Knowckdown costs have changed so that it can no longer be spammed.

A TKA beat the hell out of my 7k cat in.....5 seconds I think it was? without him taking any damage.

He even destroyed ALL of my pets health, then did some other attack to attack the action pool.

He effectively PWNED my cat in 5 seconds.....it was a constrant stream of wookie flailing. 800 points per hit.

Master brawler? What the? Who would want that anyways.

Well i got Master for a few reasons.

one: Swordsman dont get knockdown Master brawler gives you the lunge2 which is knockdown

two: helps with all def. and off. get nice def +5 to melee +5 to range etc. off. get spd and acc. etc.

I kindof regreat posting this thread now

everyone but a few seems to think im some newb for wondering why my melee guy is getting owned by a range guy.

so I am sorry for wasting everyones time for reading this.

I just wanted to get some if you guys agree that a range guy shouldnt own a melee guy but that wasnt the case with alot of you. Calling me a newb ( Which I am only been playing like a month ) and telling me im crying about the game and my toon.

I guess my interpertation on forums is wrong thought it was supposed to help me with questions.

"At least at my status as Master Brawler and Expert Swordsman."

So what you're saying is your opponent is using a Knockdown and you're not... and you want Pistoleer nerfed?

Here's a thought - use your OWN **edit** knockdown. Every single combat class in the game has a knockdown in it. If you're not using it and your opponent is, REGARDLESS of their profession you're going to lose. Period.

Rifles, carbine, pistol are all suppose to be based on ranged. Where rifle has best bonuses at longest range, carbin at med range and pistol and close to point blank range. I think that's why a lot of us took pistoleer. Our distance special shots that equivilant to those of the rifleman's and carbineer's do not do as much damage, so unless we close that distances we should be dead. At point blank range pistol whip is JUST. If that sniper allowed me to get close enough to knock him down and keep doing it till he's dead it's his own dam fault. When it comes to melee and unarmed guys...well all i can say is so what. People running around with swords and unarmed saying they should have a level playing field for those that are ranged. BAH!Ranged people should own you unless you can actually get us into melee. I don't see our soldiers going off to war with swords and pole arms do you? It's because in the modern age of ranged combat, melee and unarmed have no place. You want to wield a freakin pole arm or sword, go play EQ, SB, UO or any of those other fantasy midevil fantasy games. Only the jedi lightsabers have a real place in this galaxy. Oh except for Ewoke spears, they definantly should do 100x more damage then any modern weapon in the game because they are Ewoke magical +5000 damaging spears. Equal the playing field for PVP? HELL EQUAL THE PLAYING FIELD FOR PVE TOO!

God dam ewokes.
