Since we'll be getting dual-wielding pretty soon, would love to see the devs add Jango Fett’s WESTAR-34 blasters to the game. They look cool and sound cool. Not sure what damage they would do, but another armor-piercing gun would be nice (maybe energy or heat armor piercing).
Just and idea. What do you think? Any other pistols from the Star Wars Universe we could have implemented in-game?

It was my impression from the way he handled the Jedi in Episode 2 that the main strength of Jango's pistols were the high rate of fire, speed of the bolt and the close-range capabilty.I think this was the case and the main reason why the jedi in question was unable to properly deflect Jango's attacks.
Also, I believe the type of damage would be something other than energy (heat would probably be best), in the event that those antiques are added to the game.

I'm an elitist, so I'd like to see this pistol only available to master gunfighters. I'd also like to see dual wielding only given to masters.
that's funny, make a BH's pistols only available to Pistoleers? wouldn't it make more sense to give them to MBH's?
Technically, it's not a BH pistol...and Jango didn't use his BH skills to use it.....he used pistoleer skills (and he could master both since he didn't have a set number of skill points :smileytongue
.
Anyways, I'd love to see this gun in the game, but the only problem I have is there might be a bunch of people using two of em just to be like Jango

The Westars would definately make a nice addition to the pistoleer arsenal at some point. I'd like to see them added along with the Bryar Pistol in a future publish (who knows, maybe there'll be some in the Deathwatch dungeon?)

I'd love to see them make this a usuable weapon:

Coolest looking gun I've seen in this game, in my opinion

I want a Flechette. Those things would be peircing and an AOE attack automatically. Its basically a shotgun pistol.

Westar's would be most excellent cool! Fletchettes a pistol? I dont know... looks more like a commando weapon to me. And whiel we are on that note why are BHs not certified for Rocket Lanchers?

Slighty OT:
What I'd really like to see is some sort of planet-specific weapon types that new characters were given instead of everyone just being given CDEF Pistol/Rifle/carbine.
For example, a "Mos Eisely Special" is a very popluar model pistol that most people on Tatooine know about (according to lore) that could easily replace the CDEF pistol that new characters get but have essentially the same stats; the only thing that would be noticably different would be the art for the weapon, thus creating visual variety with a minimum of effort on the part of the devs.
This could be expanded for every starting planet as well. Furthermore, those obtaining novice artisantraining on a particular planet would get the CDEF equivalent schematic (Mos Eisely Special schematic instead of the CDEF Pistol schematic) for that planet instead of the one we currently have. Again, schematics would be essentially identical except for the art.
The main purpose behind this is obviously variety. Variety in items but also variety in characters. It would be a nice addition to the game to be able to disvern more information (or size-up lol) a person by identifying points of articulation such as this.

He Spammed Eye Shot on that poor Jedi, 'nuff said.

Dude...those blasters cost about as much as a Mon Calamari Star Cruiser. When he lost his one in his fight with Obi-Wan he probably had to cry himself to sleep that night lol
