My friend who recently mastered pistoleer asked me a question and even if I used to be master gunfighter during a long period, I was unable to answer her due to the recent patch and stuff and my complete ignorance when it comes to melee fighters.
I read many post on this forum, but none answered my question accuratly and I am not sure the post were updated with publish 7.
If you could help us, thanks a lot...
My friend recently master pistoleer. She has a non fighting profession that she cannot drop for some reasons, limiting the skill points available.
She could be Master pistoleer/smuggler 0040 (no range support in the marksman tree) or Master pistoleer/fencer0040 (still no range support column).
I was unable to advise her one the templates.
COuld you please guys tell us what is the best
1. which one is best for PVP and which one for PVE ( I bet the smuggler specials will give her an advantage in PVE with the feign death, but isn't the fencer column better for PVP ? she would obtain +75 dodge to make it 180, when she has 105 now[ isn't the max 125 now? ], +15 in range defense making it +31, +40 in defense vs. blind making it +80, +40 in def vs dizzy making it +80 [she complains a lot for doing good in PVP until a BH dizzies her.... no way to fight back... would +40 change that? ], and +20 in def vs intimidate.
2. How good are those smugglers' specials comparing to the patched pistoleers' specials? I mean is Last ditch way better than body shot 2 (if BS3 is still not fixed) and stopping shot? is low blow still much better than PMD1 (or 2 if fixed after patch) and is panic shot still worthwhile ? (I did not understand the improvements made on it)?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help... I am unable to asnwer cause I dropped it a while ago ( I use to have fun with Master pistoleer, BHs' pistols column and dirty fighting... but I went MBH and carbiner ) and I never worked on fencer.

Pistoleer/Smuggler
Once you gain enough skill, you can Panic a group of 3, and kill one at a time

lol so smuggler just for panic shot ? waoo. when you mention delaying 3 mobs and killing one at a time, is it true too for PVP, does it give a real advantage in PVP too?

Currently im a TKM/Master Pistoleer/Smuggler 0040/Fencer 0040.
I will soon be dropping the fencer since it no longer stacks with the pistoleer dodge mods anyway. My recommendation in your case is to pick up the smuggler line, since it has the best pistol specials, hands down.
As for the TKM pvp question, you just need a good genosian, depending on your speed, if its 2.0+ spam fan shot, otherwise go with stopping shot or last ditch.

thanks a lot sounds a good advice.... true that dodge stackings will be limited to 125 i think... so fencer would be useful for dizzy and blind only...
thnaks again

it doesn't still stack as long as you are holding either a pistol or one handed weapon....but you only get an extra 20 dodge due to the cap. So, at novice fencer you basically hit the cap. If you go 4-0-0-0 Fencer you can cap your range defense which is kind of nice....
