Thread: Here's an idea for pistoleer defense...

We've got +105 Dodge at master and more melee defense than the other ranged professions, but we do less damage due to the more defensive nature of our profession. Many pistoleers, though, don't feel that the defenses are adequate...


How about giving pistoleers some Melee Mitigation as well as the ranged? After all, pistoleers are supposed to be the best at fighting up close, and surely they have more melee defense for that reason. Maybe melee mitigation 1 at the same box as pistol melee defense 1 or 2...



I have a bad feeling about this nerf

I wouldn't be in favour of this idea (though it'd be nice and make more sense for commandos). I'd rather have state defences that actually work and some more ranged defence.

Doesn't see the point of a bile-venting "I'm leaving" thread.

You should be happy with what you have because the combat balance is gonna take what you have away as well.

Some ranged defense would be nice, we have basically none of that. The melee mitigation thing wouldn't work anyway because in order for it to work we'd have to unequip our pistol for a melee weapon or no weapon.

^ What he said. Melee mitigation only works when using melee weapons, hence it would be pointless. I'd personally be after more ranged defense myself.

I think all defensive mods should only work with the profession of the weapon you have equipped.....anyone know if this will happen in the combat balance?
