Armored opponent, Geo Sonic blaster almost every time
unarmored, DE-10, if you can get one, or a scatter pistol

I agree mostly! armoured- geo unless they have stun resist armour! scatter if they do
unarmoured- still geo, or scatter
although i would love a de-10

I tend to use my Scatter Pistol because most good PVPers have stun resistant armour and PSGs and a good Krayt scatter can deal with this easily. Howver, you would need to be bounty hunter too. But seeing as the combat is soo unbalanced that you need BH pistols and master pistoleer to have any chance against a rifleman... you should already be able to use a Scatter

Always try a Geonosian Sonic first, if thats ineffective try a Scatter or a DX2, if thats innefective consider yourself dead lol.

Without specialty weapons (geo, DE-10, ect), then you're best bet is actually the republic blaster. Most people either wear composite armor or none at all. Composite has relatively equal resistances against acid and energy (the damage types of the scatter and republic blaster respectively). The republic blaster gets about 200 max damage before slice while the scatter gets about 155 max damage. Mine are 259 max damage republic and 199 max damage scatter, and I find myself doing a lot more damage with the republic than the scatter in PvP.

actually DX2 would be better, as PSGS are vuln. to acid
my 1.5 132 250 DX2 almost always outdamages my 2.2 99 399 rep. blaster

I think it is. I love the extra offense. Low Blow and Last Ditch are my favorites, even with Eye Shot and Torso at my disposal.

Definately the Sonic blaster but the chances of a prepared PVP'er is getting high so either a decent Scatter, DX2, DE-10 or even a Rep blaster. Last night in Bestine someone pops up through shuttle and was tabbable, immediately he knew I had him targetted and got ready- we were both pistoleers and he was using an SR combat pistol initially and I was using a Scatter (Krayt) and he switched to sonic blaster and nails me for an average of 380 dmg. Turned out I had the wrong chestplate equipped.

My damage sliced rep blaster with a max dam of 459 works wonders with eyeshot...
