I was a Pistoleer way back in the day, back before invincibility buffs, 90% armor and melee domination, and now I'm coming back home.I am a half crafter, somelee is no longer practicaland pistols are my favorite. But please forgive this noobish question.


Which specials have area effects? Fan shot obviously. Does Burst Shot have one too? I was fighting a group of Tusk Cats and one special set them all off. I think it might have been Burst. Are there others?

Fan Shot and Burst shot are both area cone and will aggro anything in the wake.


Warning shot reduces your targets defence by 80 points, and it looks like it may be going up more looking at the patch on TC.


So, start with warning shot (it does 0 damage, but you see the icon of two AT AT's under your targets HAM) then try intimidate shot, if there is nothing behind the mob, try to stun it with intimidate shot... then root it with stopping shot and alternate between body shot, quickdraw and fanshot to do damage. Use one move after the other so that you aren't waiting on timers.


If the mob gets out of the root and charges you, go for disarming shot (stops it from attacking for a few seconds) then firearm stirke for a knockdown to get some distance.


In Summary the combo is...


Warning Shot


Intimidate Shot


Burst Shot


Stopping Shot


Body Shot


QuickDraw - Repeat this as necessary


Fan Shot


Disarm Shot


Firearm Strike
