Pistoleer Archive

If the changes make master pistoleer not worth attaining...

And eye shot is better than anything we get for a special in pistoleer... (AND the BH mind bleed is very nice).

And defensive mods don't work...

BUT - the changes to accuracy while moving definitely make our second line (I can never remember the names of the different lines) even more useful than ever...

Is it worth taking anything in pistoleer other than that one line? Arguments for the others would be the pistol speed from the right most column and the "random, but hits health more than anything else" shots (stopping and fan) from the third column for group pve action (since it's hard to get everyone on a pool and working together if it's anything other than health).

It seems to me that with this change we'll see more folks taking the BH pistol skills, and fewer folks going for master pistoleer.

Kinda cool that the game gives you that flexibility I guess.

What changes are you talking about exactly?

I believe he's referring to the knockdown 30 second timer.

If that goes in like I think it should, a 15 second no-act knockdown with a 30 second immunity is still keeping your opponent from shooting half the time - definitely not worthless. If multitarget pistol shot ever works, it could be a very fancy skill. With dodge and defensive modifiers working, pistoleer would be an excellent profession. Add in some changes to fan/stopping shot and a better BS3 and we're really cookin'.

Though we'll probably get nerfed into oblivion by the Novice Sharpshooters before we ever get anything fixed, heh.
