Thread: Stat migration suggestion question for Master Pistoleers

I'm a master pistoleer myself...Master Ranger/Master Pistoleer....so outside of the Ranged Support line in Marksman, my only other combat skills are purely Pistoleer(no BH speed enhancements in other words).


Still, even without having the speed cap...my concern is defensively I'm in great shape now PvE...but I'm really hammering my action pool and its making me a lot more vulnerable at the speed in which I can deplete it now.


My Race is Zabrak and I have the default HAM settings. My question is...does anyone have any potential suggestions for PvE only combat(no armor used) stat migration for a Zabrak in order to maximise my Pistol usage? Or should I just continue along the defaults?


Please keep in mind that I don't participate in PvP so armor considerations and other ham considerations are not an issue in any Stat Migrations I might undertake.


Thanks

As a Zab your secondary stats are capped at a low number, I can't recall off hand how low.

As you say you are having problems with action, you should pump your quickness up as high as it'll go. Quickness determines the action cost of any special moves you may use, so by increasing it your specials will cost less.

Also consider upping you Stamina, it determines the rate at which your action pool regens.

If this is for PvE purposes I would take these points from mind, Zabs have a pile of mind and not a whole lot of MOB's hit mind. Leave the mind secondaries fairly high and take the points from the mind pool primarily.

PvP, you DO NOT want to have any tiny bars. Yer just askin for someon to capitalize on your weaknesess.

Just my 2 creds...

This depends on a lot of other factors that you have not provided. Do you have good medical skills? If so you probably want a long mind bar because you can use that to heal up the other two. Another question ... do you use pets or are you sometimes exposed to damage yourself? That has a bearing as well. If you stand behind a pet all the time you can migrate just to deal with HAM costs without worrying about armor or the damage you'll incur from creatures.

I have no medical skills myself(with Master Pistoleer/Master Ranger and the ranged support line of marksman...you have 4 whole skill points left lol).


However, I am almost always grouped with my wife who is a Master CH, almost Master Rifleman, with some medical skills. However, due ot the nature of Rifleman...healing during combat tends to be more infrequent.


So yes, there almost always is a pet involved, however, should my Wife be swarmed I'll use my Rescue skill every time to pull em off her, and of course, sometimes things break past the pets.


So no, I don't want to cripple my health and mind for the sake of massive action, just looking for the best ways to tweak my stats to optimize myself towards Pistoleer.

Buy master doctor buffs, they last two hours, run about 5-20k for a complete set pending on your server, and you can spam anything without touching your Action bar
