The prereqs of the Trapping, Hunting, and Survival Scout lines to get Novice BH are going the way of the dodo.

This was the exact template I was just adding up as well...sounds very interesting. To have last ditch and eye shot with a decent weapon would be sick.

Nevermind, I figured it out. You threw me off by using "BH Pistol Line" and I was trying to figure out what profession was abbreviated "DF". I might be slow, but I get there eventually.

with master pistoleer/BH pistols 4, you will now have 51 skill points left. that leaves A LOT open to what you can do with that. I might dablle up into fencer to get the last +20 to dodge and maybe get a good boost to our state defenses.


so maybe this...


M. Pistoleer

BH Pistols 4

master fencer techniques


I dont think the specials in DF are all that worth it once you have BH pistols and fire at the speed cap. stopping shot is only slightly less powerful than last ditch. I think getting all the state defenses up to +100 or so would be a ton better.


also, with the latest nerf to jedi bounty missions, hutning jedi isnt even worth it anymore. the new payouts are 15k and 300xp.

using a pistol against a jedi isnt a very good idea.



I was thinking of going master pistol/smuggler 0140/bh 0040/ novice commando(launcher cert, I need to dust off my pre nerf krayt launcher)



last ditch stuns your target, very good


panic shot is aoe delay, if you have a group of pvp'rs working together and focus fire on one person at a time this is a great skill


low blow is a ranged KD which is really good


I wouldnt give up those specials.

Heres what you would get with my above template...


Dodge +180 (of course it is useless above 125)

pistol accuracy +155

Pistol speed +129


Defenses-

Posture down +20

Knockdown +50

dizzy +80

Blind +80

Stun +40

Intimidate +20

Ranged +35

melee +65

Ranged mitigation 3

melle mitigation 2


I think this would make a fairly powerful template. now, we just need work on our specials and damage types. only thing this doesnt take into account is the upcoming force sensitive boxes. i dont know how those will figure in.


oh ya, in that fencer line, you get one handed weapon accuracy. I have no idea if that stacks with pistol accuracy. probably doesnt.

The DF pistol line would be kinda redundant because Last Ditch isn't much better than Stopping Shot, Fiery KD pwnz Low Blow since it KDs Dizzys AND has a chance to do fire, and while Panic Shot is still decent it's not worth the skill points. Feign Death is cool but not cool enough to sacrifice the skill points. You could try picking up some fencer for the dodge and defenses but unlike pistoleer there's no one uber defense tree in it.

This is great news for Bounty Hunters. This was totally unexpected, even to the correspondents. I wonder what zany templates they'll come up with...
