I'm grinding out smuggler and the pistol part is killing me...even BH pistols was easy compared to this because they give you no accuracy,speed, etc.. with each level..

so I'm toying with taking nov pistoleer to help make the grind easier...

I'm 0-4-3-4 right now, using a adv rep blaster at 1.6, 70-205 dmgwith 0 pistol xp...so do I just go on biting my tongue and get the remaining 1.2 million pistol xp or

should I get nov pistoleer (what type of dmg would a DX2 {150-220 dmg} and health shot 2 do?)

should I also get marksmanship 1...for the extra +5 accuracy?

Let me know how these templates play out to you pls.

HS2 wouldn't be better unless you have a 1.2 or 1.3s gun also a 150-220dmg DX will cost you millionsI think

I used a 1.2s scout and 1.4s fwg (an later a 1.6s DX2) for levelling

It would in my opinion be very helpful to pick up Novice Pistoleer, the DX2 is great for slaughtering the assorted fauna which has acid vulnerability (ie- a lot of the critters on Dantooine are vulnerable to acid). That in mind, the stats on the DX2 dont need to be so mind blowing (I make do with a 100-160 with a nice speed slice)

A single level in marksmanship isnt really going to make much of a difference I reckon. If you are close to maxing out DF anyway stick with that and maybe work on the 4th pistol tree to increase speed (uses combat xp so as not to waste pistol xp)

I almost exclusively ended up using smuggler specials rather than pistol ones (short of the very useful fan shot for lairs & caves etcthough thatcan cause you some multiple aggros if solo, and make you very unpopular in a group....)
