Im really sad they are nerfing the FWG5. The weapon looks really cool. Iv been looking at the DX pistols and im sorry that is the gayiest pistol iv ever seen. Whats even more lame is that is the pistol Pistoleers get? I'd Rather use a weapon that has best Ratio, but i also like weapon graphics. I hope the developers have something good in store for Pistoleer. If the big secret is going to be giving us Duel wield of the DX pistols then the Developers must be the rejects that couldnt even make it into the special olympics.

The biggest problem with the DX2 isn't its stupid graphics ... it is that it is the least accurate pistol in the game.

and the components dont match the damage type



DX2is a acid damage weapon yet it uses 4 power handlers and a blaster pistol barrel


Scatter pistol is an acid damage weapon that uses projectile barrel, *1* power handler and a feed mechanism.



w/o even using enhancers a scatter pistol is around 120-188/1.8 AP1 -38 @0m +40@ 7m 18/53/19 hams


w/o using enhancers a DX2 is104-161/2.4 26% wound 35% wound AP1 +21 @0m -7 @8m 23/41/15 hams


dx2 would require FIVE krayt tissues to see a comon result of 104-191/2.1 26% wound (on some servers like chilastra this could cost you 500k just in tissues)


scatter just needs ONE krayt tissue and gets a bonus of using a nym feeder (+20 damage average) so you get a result like


120-238/1.5 35% wound



the DX2 should be more inline w/ the scatter or the scatter should be more in line with the dx2, if your shooting streams of acid the range should atleast be similar between the two. And four power handlers to get less damage than a scatter? 'Cmon theres no role playing explanation to that.


DX2 seems to be the only weapon where you have to run right up on them into melee and beat them over the head with it to do the damage to them you want to.

- It's time the devs end the bitter fighting by giving the community a Non Jedi server. We have a few servers with TINY populations that could be changed to this ruleset. I support this idea because it punishes noone. - You can support it too. Click Here!
