Pistoleer Archive

Just thought I would ask the experts, as I am stumped. I am currently working up both skill sets, since the smuggler skills seem to complement the skill modifiers in Pistoleer so well.

Right now, I have Smuggler 0,2,2,0 and Pistoleer 0,0 1,1. I had been planning on acquiring the Low Blow first, so as to use the Low Blow/Panic Shot combo for a bit a crowd control. After that, I was not sure as to whether it would be more advantageous for me to grab Last Ditch, or head up the Pistoleer tech tree for Stopping Shot. Which attack tends to work better with the Low Blow/Panic Shot combo?

Thanks for any help.

finish smuggler then start working on pistoleer. if you try to do both at the same time you will just get frustrated. if you work hard at it you can master smuggler (at least the 2 lines that require pistol xp) in no time. as you are doing that you should be building up combat xp to go up the stances line fast. then you can start the pistoleer tree at 0001 or 0002 possibly.

Not to mention you can make pretty good money slicing weapons and armor as a master smuggler as you are going up pistoleer. that way you can afford even the shiniest krayt fwg =D

Not from a pistoleer point of view, but from a master fencer. Let's see, a pistoleer with just the tech tree took me down (in PVP) in two fu***** shots. I'm a master fencer now, come on. Forgive the language, but god that pissed me off.

Anyway, I would suggest getting the over-powered Stopping Shot.

Yeah and get a fast pistol too so you can spam a few lastditches in between your panics and lowblows. just be on the lookout now.. a pistol under 1 sec is what you want, at least until you hit master pistoleer

Dubious, Master Smuggler/Pistoleer

Panicshot and lowblow are on different timers. So you can lowblow mobs then Panicshot them and not be attacked for close to 15 seconds out of every 30. I can usually finish off most mobs or players before they even get up.
