i agree, another no good pistol that will never be used. pistoleer is starving. i gave up rifles cause i hated being "overpowered," but now im a pathetic addition to any group. i do ok in pvp thanks to the geo pistol and defense stacking, but on the corvette i could barely touch the mobs. i felt useless, especially while watching the swordsmen and riflemen next to me actually do damage.
its now to the point that every combat prof needs a medium ap weapon. not only is pistoleer dps very low, we cant even damage (or barely so, im embarrassed about how long it takes me to down an enhanced kwi) high lvl mobs.
i definitely think this gun should be slower than a rep blaster with the same damage but medium ap. cold damage, or just any other damage than energy, geez, is a good idea too.

This thing had best be AP2... sure, we'll disappoint some carbineers, but at least their ranged AOE KD hasn't been nerfed yet...
Oh, and, not to upset any non-master pistoleers, but this really SHOULD be master-only. It's too cool to have everyone and their mother carrying one. It needs to be reserved for the pistoleer elite

Early reports indicate an AP1 Energy pistol, not sure on accuracy, speed or damage yet.

While that is mildly dissapointing, if these things can come out with stats at least comparable to the republic blaster then I will still use it. I mean c'mon, blue bolts and magnum-like looks? Thats awesome!More of a novelty item than anything else, but cool nonetheless.

That was my thought as well. Who knows, maybe it will have better accuracy, min damage, or speed than the RB (from what I've heard on the TC boards, the damage is comparable - not sure how comparable exactly though.)
Either way, it just looks too darn cool not to use.

Anyone else notice this is a cut down version of the beserker rifle? My concern is this..the DXR6 is an acid rifle and uses the same art as the DX2 acid pistol. Hopefully they won't just make this a the pistoleers version of the heat damage AP0 berserker rifle.

Why not another damage source like ...COLD?

Can we get the stats on the updated schematic? I'm fine with AP1, but I'd like it to be at least comparable to the RB in DPS, ESPECIALLY if it's master-only.
