Thread: Improved Body Shot Bugged?
I have Pistoleer 44x3 Master Smuggler and Novice Commando. In non combat I have Dancer xx4x. The pistol I was using was max damage 828 so the numbers are probably right. I was focusing on damage after the armor subtraction rather than the total hit. Sleep dep I 'spose 
When I had a mere 980 max rifle I could land ranged shot for over 600pnts after armor adjustment. Imp head shot in the first line third box of rifles is matched by the novice box leg shot too. I tested it extensively with said rifle when I had rifleman 4xx4. Iam hitting for around 582 with imp body shot after armor subtractions. With warning shot it does go over 600pnts. I was just a little disappointed because at one timeI was using a crappy carb that was always landing for over 700pnts after armor adjustment and this was with novice box carbineer leg shot. I should explain my damage reports are set up to show what lands or total hit, what is soaked and real damage after the soak. I am discussing real damage takennot total hit.
I like pistols and I think Burst shot is way too easily resisted and our SAC in general is far too high when you consider range/damage. I am sticking it out. Smuggler pistols just seems right.
