Well After Being a Master Rifleman Master Teras Kasi I open my 1st holo it says Doctor so i go master MEdic and Master Doctor in a few Days of powergaming. Open my second holo and its Pistoleer i wanna cry at this point cause i have no pistol exp at all. After a few days of hard grinding i make novice pistoleer and use my Combat exp to get 0003


i then get a Republic blaster and Fwg5 and head to dantooine to do what i did for the other professions.


Its different this time i get owned by pikets i have no CH skills and when i group with people i get sh*t amounts of exp i then go to try and get some Ubese to see if that helps but the vendors are down and no ones selling so on goes the 60% comp armor ok i go back to dantooine and do Quenker lairs this works but seems to take AGES to kill things not to mention i get aggroed by at least 2 sometimes 3 or 4which makes things really tough. After 3 hours im half way to getting disarm shot.


This is going way to slow for me and seriously if i cant level up faster than this then im going to have to quit.


if anyone has any advice then please help me out and post it.

Look around you... pistoleer has a serious damage deficiency. You went from the most 2 damaging professions to the least damaging in the game.

Pistoleers are fine. Dont know what you talking about. Use Kick up Shot. Its your best friend. Then get a nice pet, and fanshot. And master comes in the next few hours.

I too had Pistoleer come up as a Holocron profession. Its not that bad. I kept all of my Teras Kasi skills so of course I have an advantage. From what Ive read if you go up the Techniques tree and get Fan Shot the rest of Pistoleer is a breeze.

True its a lot different than beinga Teras Kasi Master but Health Shot 1, with Health Shot 2 makes things die a lot quicker. Just keep at it like you did with Teras Kasi.

I mastered pistoleer on dant. I came to Dant as a 1111 pistoleer and finally mastered last night (yay). I did 80-90% of that with Pikets.


They're social so if one agro's and more are close by, they'll all gun for you - try and avoid this until you get fanshot. Once you get fanshot you can take them on 6 on 1 with burst run. Open up with Bleed 2- Bleed 1 then use warning shot to keep them at distance and your most powerful shot (double tap, stopping shot, whatever you've got).


Once you aquire fanshot you may as well tap the lair, get 6 on you and burst run while spamming that - it's great fun.


If you can make sure you have your Action bars as high as you can. I'm Zabrak and limited to 450 speed and 400 stamina so I rely on food and drink


Oh yeah, check what armour your opponents have. FWG5s don't cut it against Piket Longhorn females with their 60% Heat protection. I've got a DX2 and Republic in my aresenal too,and am frequently changing between the three guns.


If you still struggle, go for some lesser foes (Voritors are quite easy, but do DB), get a pet (v useful, you can pick up non-ch with nearly 8k ham from good BEs), or group. Or get some light weight ubese at 60-80% kin.


Good luck.

Why getting rude and personal just because someone is fed up with whining, especially from holocron grinders? You obviously dont want to be a pistoleer, so just grind through it and move on. Get out, get away, shut up, just stay silent in the corner where we can't hear you.
