Thread: Hybrid professions vs elite professions
ok here are a couple of quotes from the manual:
Elite Professions: Elite professions represent focused training.
Hybrid professions: While Elite professions indicate a specialized training in focused areas, Hybrid Professions provide a broader base of SKILLS. because they are COMPLICATED career paths, Hybrid Professions often require some degree of PROFICIENCY in two other related professions, and may call for MASTER Titles.
Pistoleer: Marksman skilled at using blaster pistols and other SMALL firearms
requirements: marksman
Funny how they said a "marksman", you dont have to be a marksman to be a pistoleer
Bounty Hunter: A mercenary who earns his living by hunting down criminals
requirements: master marksman,master scout
Commando: A hardened soldier trained to use and craft heavy weapons
requirements: master marksman,unarmed specialist, and engineering specialist
so there are some quotes from the manual, I especially like the words like Master, Broader skills,complicated career paths,proficiency in two other related professions, mat require you to be master titles to be hybrid pro., Mercenary, hardened soldier
words i dont like are Small firearms, no requirements to be a pistoleer, and well, umm, thats it because there is nothing to this class
Blitzkrieg_BloodSpiller ,
I see you posting a lot, but I'm not sure what your point is.
If it's that BHs are wildly more effective than pistoleers, yes, we know this.
If it's that BHs are wildly more effective than master pistoleers, with pistols, we know that too.
If it's that the scatter is >>> the DX2, yeah, we know that. Its also cheaper to krayt enhance. We know that too.
If it's that eyeshot is superior to any rifleman in terms of mind pool for only action cost, yeah, we know that too. So do rifleman.
What's your point exactly? I don't see how pointing out the obvious needs a new post every few hours from you? We know we suck, and we know even if every single change we've mentioned occured, we'd STILL be less effective with pistols than BHs with pistols. So please, enlighten me as to what your issues are, so I can help you be more...efficient with your time.
I got it, we have superior health targeted shots.
Wait, no we don't, torso shot is >>>> BS3.
Shoot..ok... i'll just wait for you to tell me what your point is. I'm obviously horrible at guessing games.
No, really this time..I'm onto it. We're better close range!
Doh, LLC does massive damage at close range?

sorry, really thought I had something there that time.
I've spent 246 skill points on my template, why should a bounty hunter who only spent 200 some odd be able to kill me (before he dies, anyway - I garuntee, he will die)?
Riddle me this
Jaegen,
The answer is very simple. The Devs are Imperial BH/CHs with 3 AT-STs each. They don't want to ruin their chances!
wanna know my point dancer boy? i take it thats what you are because you post master gunfighter but nothing else, and to get master pistoleer it takes only about 1/3 of the skill points, my point is all i hear is nerfs coming for BH and other Hybrid classes which take more skill then the elite professions, and i hear nothing but power ups for pistoleers, im just makin sure that that doesnt happen,
if you wanna master pistols and carbines and a little medic then yes you should give me a good fight, but as far as being a master pistoleer and a master entertainer you shouldnt have a prayer, im here to make sure you stay where you are at
ON THE BOTTOM
The manual says the paths to the hybrid professions are complicated. It also says they received focused training. it doesn't say that they should pwn everyone else.
It also says that BH's hunt down criminals. Since I'm not a criminal, should I be able to do more damage vs. Bounty Hunters if they attack me?
jaegen, never forget you're talking to a BH, they pay 3 times what we pay monthly so they should kill us all even covert.
Oh, and I beg dev team to give them auto kill, a command like /TooLazyFor TargetName.
Blitzkrieg, you were fun but come back with us, we're playing the same game.
And let me tell you you're not a BH, you don't even know what you're meant for.
