Pistoleer Archive

Atm, it makes close to nothing. It is expected to be fixed one day (patch message tells us it is fixed, start to laugh) but for what I know, it is completely broken.

i have seen a number of sigs with this dual mastery so my question is to yall

is the defense worth getting? do you notice a BIG difference having the defenses from tka/master pistoleer?

i am looking at putting a template together that has defense vs:

blind +30

posture change +50

stun +35

dizzy +25

knockdown +50

melee +45

ranged +42

if this works i will add more ranged defense, but i am really curious to know if anyone has any feedback about the effectiveness of stacking these defenses, especially after today when they make defense stronger. what i'm trying to do is make a master pistoleer based combat char equal to any bh, rifleman, commando based char. i already have smuggler pistol line and i'm already highly effective with those two together but i am interested to see what adding these defenses will do, i will report my findings back to the pistoleer community but i am interested in some solid info from those that went before me. thank you for yourtime.

ok, i'd like to ask this question post patch now. i have all the unarmed i need and all the combat xp to get 6 or 7 boxes in tka if i open novice but i'll be giving up some stuff i really love. is it worth it? are the stacked defenses good? meditation looks good, i'm teetering.

the stuff i'd be giving up to get tka is master ch with a stable of extinct pets that i've had since before the first patch,arachne web, frenzied graul, death head merek......stuff i use for pve to make a living, hunt krayts,do those 22k missions easy, (did a few on dath last night, cakewalk) what i'm wondering, give up a pve template away thats unequaled to get a pvp template thats questionable

I'm notmaster in either profession (yet), but I have been mixing the two to try the defenses. I haven't noticed much boost in the state effect defenses (although I don't seem to be getting hit with them toooften so maybe they are working?), but I have noticed a significant drop in # of hits I take because of the tk melee/ranged defenses. Significant enough that I can usually solo (no pets) whatother people are unwilling to fight without some pet to offer distraction (aka tank).

If you're approaching this as a tk with pistoleer defenses, I wouldn't bother. If you're approaching as a pistoleer with tk defenses, I'd say go for it.
