why would body shot2 be more better than bodyshot3? 3 is more powerful isnt it? does anybody know how to fix the problem with my action pool disapearing with my character actually shooting?

what do you guys use for pistol xp? i was killing mereks but those spiders are hard to find sometimes. im trying to find an animal that has little or no heat resist and gives good xp.

Just get a DX2 pistol... =)

Or goto coronet and get some Sharrif missions. They are non-aggro and give about the same amount of XP as mereks.

For experience, it's all about the mission objectives. Get a good mount and hit as many under 3k missions as you can stand before you fall asleep. I try to keep mine under 1k away from the mission terminal. It's not the creatures that give the experience, it's hammering those stupid hives, generators, etc... that dish out the exp points pretty fast if your running solo.

cool thanks guys, can somebody help me with the pistol speed and losing action problem i have?

sheesh i know i got a lot of questions but this is the last one. whats the best special to use on lairs? what does the best dmg?

use disarmingshot on lairs

Use disarming shot on lairs. Otherwise it's a fairly useless special compared to the other ones.

Two things I have to say about this....

First, yeah use disarming shot against lairs. But I also keep around a Scout Blaster for the single purpose of destroying lairs. Rather than beat up on one of my good pistols, I just use the same Scout for all lairs.

Second, while I don't think disarming shot is the best special attack, I do find it to be great against NPC's (I haven't tried it against players). It doesn't work right every time, but when it does it's like a free period for you to just beat on your enemy. It's also really funny to watch NPC's put their blaster away for a couple rounds and stand there holding their fists up ready to brawl hehe I only wish you could use it to make melee combatants put their weapon away, such as making a Tusken Raider put his Gaffi Stick away. Maybe it does work and I've just had bad luck with it But besides againstNPC's, disarming shot is kinda useless. Does it work on players? I haven't tried it....

which is better? i heard stopping shot is powerfull but doesnt it cost a lot?

i got one more problem. i have a scout blaster that is 1.2 attack speed and a fwg5 that is 1.1 attack speed. now when i use consecutive specials in a row many of them dont even fire but my ham is still taken away. like if i fire 3 bodyshots in a row, only 1 will do dmg and the other 2 wont but the action pool will still be taken away from the other 2. any way to fix this? im a novice pistoleer with level 2 in melee defense and i plan on getting my first level in stances, whats good combos i can use on npcs?

Ok from my standpoint I rank the specials like this:

1) Fan Shot

2) Stopping Shot

3) Body Shot X

4) Body Shot X

Where the first Body Shot is III if and only if I am using a top of the line 1.0 speed pistol.

If anything else, then BS II is better.

Stopping shot does more bang for the buck, but is slower.
