To set your default attack hold down ctrl and click the attack you want to be set as the default attack in your tool bar...


My question is as a MP what attack are you using?


I am MP/MBH/going to be 0040 smuggler once I grind out smuggler...


I have been moving in RL so I have not been able to get in much lately to see what attack does the most dmg with the quickest timer and least action cost on it...I figure I will set that as my default attack and then use all of the other cool attacks I can find on top of those.

I would set it to either Quickdraw or Body Shot for Pistoleer. I don't actually use this though, because if you go incap and you forget you have it on..as soon as you stand up you will begin firing at the creatures again and probably will get incapped again. I just rotate back in forth from Quickdraw to Body Shot throughout the battle myself.


Warning Shot - Intimidation shot - Stopping Shot - Rotate Quickdraw and Body Shot til end of battle. (Creatures)

Nothing, unless you want to spam away your action. I dont use it at all.


I found the auto attack would get in the way of my combos and stop me from being able to react quickly to situations... its is annoying when you want to do a ceratin move "now" but the auto attack fires and you have to wait valuable seconds.


Using the auto attack also lowers your DPS as you are better off alternating between damage shots to bypass the timers.


In short, auto attack is bad.

Is there a way to set your default attack to just a normal shot instead of a pistol? Pre CU your character would keep firing a generic shot until you peaced or the fight was over.

Drag Ranged Shot from the Command Browser (CTRL+A) Combat Tab to a toolbar, hold CTRL and click on it.

That shot is supposed to not use any action, as it is rather weak in power...


I haven't tested it recently but I last heard it was bugged and will use action... and I haven't heard of any fix yet.
