its just occured to me, that "Master" pistoleers arnt quite masters as such...


even once they've got the master tag.. there are still pistols they are hopeless with (Scatter+Launcher)


i just thought that maybe.. at master pistoleer, you are granted the certification for every pistol in the game...


this wouldnt unbalance at all as far as i can see, you'd only be able to weild the weapons, not as efficiently as a BH with bh pistols 4 would, you'd be lacking the skill mods, and special attacks that are still exclusive to these traits


does anyone agree with this at all?

I think that after the upcomming weapon/combat rebalance it won't really matter.

ah....


we get normal pistols. with all normal pistols we are a cut above.


Think of the LP and SP as normal pistols that were heavily modified to suit other classes.


now they are abnormal pistols, and as such we cant use em.


i dont think we should have certs for Launcher and Scatter Pistols, we just need a better Novice Pistoleer pistol cert than that peice of cheese called a DX2. The DL-44 could use a little tweaking as well.


face it, you need to be master to hit with the DX2.


Changethe DX2 !! Its the Jar Jar of weapons !!



i digress.....


anyway, asking for certs for the LP and SP is like riflemen/women asking for a cert for the Heavy Acid Rifle.


they are class specific and should remain so.


my opinion.

I agree, scatter and launcher should remain none-certified for master pistoleer, if you really want these get either nov bh or nov commando...

i think master pistoleer isn't that because people who haven't master the profession and dabbled in someting else can beat a non-dabbling pistoleer. is every special was fixed or made useful pistoleers would be much better. also, i haven't heard about any new bh or commando weapons coming in patch 6, but pistoleers get 2.

I wanted to use a launcher pistol (for the big explosion effects more than any other reason) so I invested the time and skill points to getting novice commando. I think that the extra investment of skill points towards getting that cert is a perfect balance to the added power the launcher pistol gives me, and at the same time it gives me something unique to myself rather than being just another cookie cutter master pistoleer using the best gun and the best template (pistoleer/fencer) like every other person in the game.
