Hello all Currently I am working towards Master Bounty Hunter, Master Pistoleer and Novice Medic combination. Recently I have gotten into the PVP concept of this game and enjoy it very much. With this template in mind which I'd like to keep I have some questions that might help me in pvp once I master these oh currently im 0/0/4/4 in Bounty Hunter and 4/4/0/4 in Pistoleer. What should I have my stats migrated as? I want to be able to fight unbuffed and not lose tons of action when spamming specials also I want it good so it'll make it easier for me to wear my armor unbuffed.What armor should I use I hear Stun is good for PVP but what stats should I look for on it? Also where would I get this stun now that Maji doesn't have much left due to the upcoming vendor nerf? Currently i have a Krayt Scatter at 1.9 speed and 256 max damage with 38% wound is this decent for PVP if not what should I use and what stats should I look for on it? Remember this is all with MBH/Pistoleer combo in mind I appreciate all your help. Your friend

Max out all 3 of your mind stats. Yes that WILL leave your other six low, BUT: all you have to do is get buffed and drink two brandies. W/ mind stats maxed, your mind and it's recharge rate will be so high you will be able to do unlimited sp attacks, and the brandy will cement this. W/ ur health and action, and their recharge pools havieng 2k+ from the buffs you wont have to worry about them either. Good 2 go.

You will kill yourself spamming specials, unbuffed. No matter what your stats are.
If you jack up your secondaries to wear armor, your primary HAM will be very low, and putting armor on, with the encumberance, will eat away at your secondaries, thus making the HAM cost for specials enormous, and your primaries will be at 400-500 max so death will come quick.
Long story short, you cannot fight anything for more than a few seconds unbuffed in PVP or PVE, and no stat migration will help.

You have to be buffed to PVP, but you also have to have the right food, drink, and drugs mixed in as well. I have taken on buffed opponents unbuffed with the right foods and drugs, using defenses and DOTS, but this was a one on one deal.
And as far as your weapon is concerned, it is not bad, but speed will not matter with your template, damage is the key. Pistoleer/BH is expensive as we need outstanding weapons to compete. You will need a better scatter and a great Geo pistol to hold your own these days.

simple, just put it all into your mind stats and buy buffs, if buffs are unavailable then your in trouble anyway

Sorry for the doulbe post but just to add there have been times when I've been fully buffed, double brandied, and fully armored with 86 and 87% comp and an unbuffed fencer will just dizzy me and incap me in 5 sec. So I know theres more to it than the stats.

Dont let fencers and melee clases get into range. Kite them no ammount of stat change will save you if they use a dizzy kd on you.
