Hey guys I'm a WS/AS and want some fighting skills. I love pistols as I can make some great ones using spare tissues and can wear my scout trooper armor

So I was wondering what 3 trees I should take in pistoleer for maximum effect. I was thinking 4044 for stopping shot, speed, and intimidate shot. But i hear disarming shot is good.... and the accuracy is probably more important than defense since i never solo anymore.

What do you guys suggest, I mostly hunt big game with my guild or help newbies level.

Oh and, what level do you think 3 elite trees is?

disarming shot is not good for group play unless you have a disciplined group that won't attack the target you just shot with disarming shot. If your group is disciplined, then disarm is great, as you can take target #2 out of the fight, while the group dispatches target #1.

As for 3 trees.

Novice will give you 5 melee defense and 15 general accuracy (no other Novice box in the game gives you 15 gen acc, btw. 10 is the most you'll find.)

x4xx is a must. You'll get40 general accuracy and disarm out of that one, plus disarm shot and burst shot.

xxx4 is a must. You'll get 40 melee and 40 ranged defense out of that one, plus stopping shot and fan shot.

Then it's your call.

You can get 20 pistol speed and 10 general speed with 4xxx (along with Advanced Firearm, Improved Body Hit, and Warning Shot.)

You can get 20 pistol defense and Improved Quickdraw, Intimidate and Stun and Dizzy recovery.

Me? I'd get 4xxx because I'd rather have 30 speed, plus another 25 potential from tapes, and I'd rather have the Adv knockdown, Improved Body and Warning Shot (useful against mobs over your CL or your groups CL in a group setting.)

thanks guys, some good advice here... I wanted intimidate shot because it was awesome before, but now just seems like gravy... Hrm, I think ill go disarming as most people I group with listen to me hehe and the accuracy will help landing stopping shot.

Thanks
