Pistoleer Archive

Thanks for the list

Lets clarify, after next publish defense mods will no longer stack (meaning If i am holding a pistol mods from Fencer will no longer apply). This isnt just limited to Dodge, but also applied to Raned/Melee Defense, and Def. Vs. ___ ? That being true, I am seeing the most 'valuable' complemntary profession with pistoleer being the BH Pistols line. However, MCprime, how do you see fit the Dirty Fighting line and Novice Commando (for launcher pistol) compared with the BH/pistoleer combo? Ive read a lot of contradicting posts, one saying this and another saying that about next publish and I am debating whether to go BH pistol line, or novice Commando and Dirty Fighting with pistoleer. Ive got clothing/armor attachments that give me the cap of +25 for pistol speed, Melee and ranged defense, and a few Def. Vs. ______ . Having +25 pistol speed in attachments, I was lead to believe I'd be good without the BH line.

Due to the clarification on TC about which caps will be in place, I will be changing from:

Master Pistol-Master TKA-Rouge-Fencer 4-0-3-0

to

Master Pistol-Master TKA-Rouge-Fencer 4-0-0-0-Range Support 3

My dodge boxes became usless, as expected. Once the final combat rebalance happens (where range and melee defense stacking gets capped) , I will be going back to Master Pistol-BH Pistol 4.

just curious... how do you make money?

I will have a template almost identical to you when its finished (except ill put some tka skill points into rifle concealment line), but im feeling the pressure to master smuggler to have a steady income to buy sea's and stuff. which would take quite a bit of my skill points.

I was getting poor pretty quick, so I made an alt to churn out dance and music buffs for free. Also, you are strong enough to solo a lot of loot areas...just have to sell them instead of keep them

-just dodge, counter and block getting capped for now

-dodge will still work from fencer even with a pistol...just need to be hlding a gun or a one handed weapon for it to work.

-thats a good speed mod...but the BH line gives you accuracy as well

-the commando + dirty fighting is for ATST and Turret killing, but is not as good as BH Pistol for PvP 1 on 1 (no pool specific targeting). Hoever, in a group, fan shot with a launcher pistol is pretty funny. It's all personal preference, but I personally like the BH line because of the accuracy.

Hmmmm my template is Master Pistoleer/Master Fencer/Smuggler 0/0/4/0 because fencer>tkm

Only defensively. You get bleeds, dodge and a stun baton. TKA gets power boost, force of will, and KD Dizzy. Either one is awesome to add to Pistoleer.

Ifind that my template of master's in smuggler,pistoleer and tk very effective.

Smuggler givesyou the chance to get the best sliced armour and weapons for just the cost of the parts, plus a knockdown and a 10 sec delay, the ablity to feign death ( very usefull if used correctly)plus usefull spice in large numbers ( watch the smugglers become very very dangerous if our proffession get's the fix it has always needed ).

how does the pistol accuracy from the BH line apply? I mean, I have attachments for Pistol accuracy while moving and standing. The accuracy from the BH line just apply to standing still? If that be the case, since I am never standing still in pvp, I would rather grab dirty fighting and just invest in pistol accuracy while moving attachments.

Alright thanks For the help with that I was planning on waiting for the patch to see what they nerf anyway.

I was thinking this one for after patch:

Master Pistoleer
Smuggler 0/0/4/0
Fencer 4/4/4/0
TKA 4/3/0/0
Novice Medic

Ya im gonna go BH pistol 3/ master pistol/ novice medic, my idea for a template was based on tryingto cap all defenses including status. A slow pistoleer, but tough. And ranged mit 3/melee mit 2

I am master doctor pro, been a doctor for a loooong time,my char started as a medic whenthe game came out, and havent dropped it yet,probably wont ever, and yes, self buffing/curesmake you tough for hunting, butweak if you fight other players (unless their non masters, then youll pwn em).

In PVP as a doctor, your either fighting or helping, you just cant do both effectively. Just try fighting, healing, reviving,rebuffing, curing poisons and diseases. And since most of the time theresdoctors around that dont know their head from their ass, you have to work your doctor magic to keep everyone alive. Chasing people while they yell "AHHH1!!1 IM PIOSONED1!! HAEL ME NOWW1!!1" as they run away from you...

/cry

Ive been bouncing around alot of professions. This is my decided template

Master Pistoleer, Commando 0040, Smuggler 0040, TKA 4000, Medic 2000
