This is the question and I'm not sure of the answer. Is Dodge and the column 3 (stun, dizzy, KD) defenses better than Charge Shot 1 and crippling shot to have, for a BH?

I have a master gunfighter character and I love it, but I'm not sure whether to go Pistoleer or Carbineer with my extra post-MBH skill points. I tend to use my pistol much more than my carbines.

Advice from the gunslingers?

bh lack in the defense department, plus stopping and fan shot will be better for you i think.

Yeah, I'm leaning pistoleer, too, for my BH character. Much easier to get pistol xp for BH character than carbine xp.

Pistoleer defense are just too good.

I'd agree if however the devs currentopinion was notof the special"working as intended".

See that's just the thing.... alot of people say it's broken because it's not slaved to the kd timer like everyone else.... but I've only ever seen a dev post saying it's "working as intended" and never anything but...

Actually, what I've picked up from other posts is that charge shot is working right. It's the animation that's working wrong.

The target is actually only knocked down once every 30 seconds. All the other "knockdowns" are just animations and your opponent or critter can attack you during those "animation knockdowns."

The "animation knockdowns" are confusing, however and many folks don't shoot back during them. The animation no doubt will be fixed, but the actual shot will probably stay the same.
