Pistoleer Archive

I love the Fan Shot... its the only shot in pistoleer that I use other than Health Shot 2. I find this sad, I'm a Master Pistoleer and I don't even use my master shots since they are so pathetic.

My suggestion is for the following to happen to MTPS:

• Do the same damage as Stopping Shot


• Shoot as slow as Stopping Shot


• Turn it into an AE Cone.

Basically, make it aStoppingShot clone that is an AE cone line fan shot.

Opinions?

I'm thinkin stopin shot in a 180 degree forward "cone", same speed as stop, same damage as stop, same aggro/damage rules as fan. The size of the AOE I'm talkin about may be a little big, but dammit, we been waitn for how long for a master special?

180 degrees? Dude with that you can't even skillfully contain aggro. It would be a purely PvP shot then... which I suppose is something worth considering but I'm not sure its worth losing it in realistic PvE situations.

180 degrees???? That'd turn us into "Master BFG 9k Wielder" instead of Master Gunfighter. Hehe.

I think multitarget shot should be fanshot with stopping shot damage. And a chance of a status effect. Fanshot, the way it is now, while it's very nice, I think it's a touch too much for one line.

The drawing of scary aggro is the downside to the size of the AOE, it truly would be a skilled shot.

I agree it would be ok for PvP, but as it would draw every auto-fire to you it would also get your but killed fast if used wrong, just like PvE. I almost never use fan in PvP as it pulls to much attention to me, 1 at a time for players, unless we get an aoe state change attack ( again)I'll prolly stay that way.

I should have added that the "far-end" of my aoe idea would be about 32m, or half total range.
We are talking about an AOE version of one of the strongest damage output pistol shots in the game, it should have a drawback.

thats what my opinion of MTPS is

it should be more powerful than fan (otherwise why would it be better) and it should OBVIOUSLY have a cone effect..look at the name. MULTI-TARGET

why this thing doesnt work liek it should is way beyond me.

i think it should hit what you target, and if you target something else, it still hits the first thing, this would make it possible to choose many things to hit in one attack. the choosable things would have to be in a cone. and status effects should be included too, and in some others.
