What do you mean? Quick Draw, Body Shot, Fanshot, Burst Shot, Ranged or Aimed or Placed Shot, those all do "damage." Quickdraw, to me, seems to be the most damaging, due to its low recycle time.

Improved Body Shot does the most damage of any attack with a pistol, aside from Advanced Critical Shot.
ImprovedLeg Shot does the most damage of any attack with a carbine, aside from Advanced Critical Shot.
ImprovedHead Shot does the most damage of any attack with a rifle, aside from Advanced Sniper Shot.*
*Advanced sniper shot is the most damaging attack in the game*, but it only does the best damage with a rifle. Also, you need to be prone and there is a warmup timer which has a habit of failing unless you're on flat terrain.
*...other than last ditch, but it has an unusually high accuracy penalty and drains your health big time. It truely is a last ditch.

True, but sometimes you can put 2 Quickdraw shots in in the same time as one BodyShot.

true, but youll have about an extra 70-100 points of dmg and your action will be lowered by 100+ for that extra quickdraw.

True, but depending on who you're fighting you have to put more shots in (Jedi, with Saber block, for example), and if you are fighting a Doctor or other healer, you need to get those shots in quick before they can heal.

you do realize that last ditch deals dmg based on how much damage you currently have?
it also wastes your action bar, wastes most of your remaining health and leaves you helpless unless you're actually using as a last ditch, and helpless already

I found that with Pure PIstoleer you can get the doctor combat speed buff and action regen buff, pistol speed +10 stims, vasarian brandy and kiwik swirl for action regen and dump your action pool onto a target by alternating between /quickDraw and /bodyShot which come out at what we used to know as the speedcap, one second per shot.
It reminds me of mana dumping in UO, I've got a macro that does:
/quickDraw;
/pause 1
/bodyShot
/pause 1
/maro Pistoleer-DamageShots
And I use that to dump my action on mobs or players if I'm not feeling particulary creative.
