Ya, so if the dev's arent too busy playing their Jedi characters and /fiddling each other, i was wondering if i could have some accuracy with pistols for once. Considering im a MPistoleer and MBH, i was just sort of thinking maybe i should be able to hit a Jedi more than one out of 4 or 5 shots, as he stands there, at ideal range, after i eat attack accuracy food? Just a thought. I played pistols through the old melee stacking days, the saber block days, etc etc. Is it really too much to ask that i could actually effectively use some of my specials, ie. hit these guys. My god id be jumping up and down for a 50/50 ratio. I know no developer would ever use pistols or anything, but if you find the time to make some adjustments, when not pampering your golden template, maybe some assistance.


PS There is no way in hell a developer, or anyone of any real significane will read this, but i just wanted to vent. Thank you and devs, please continue to make this game suck.

I thought that, too, at first. But it's only fair. If the melee guys didn't have a chance of catching us while we're running around, slowly gnawing away at their health with our little pistolas, the cries of nerf would be deafening.

It'd be cool if each weapon actually had a significance...


Pistol = 35m range, but THE best weapon to use point blank to 10m.


Carbine = 50m range, used best 50m -> 10m or so..., accuracy penalty within 10m.


Rifle = 65m range, used best 65m -> 20m or so..., accuracy penalty within 20m.



Then everyone would have a reason to run around with more than a Laser Rifle.

Word. When im testing out pistol damage on a Jedi friend, and he stands still 30m away as i shoot at him, after i take accuracy food, i should be able to hit more often than not. At least you would think. Again, this has been something that has being going on a long time, so i have to assume its intended. Even he was like "Man this is stupid". When Jedi feel sorry for me, thats a bad thing.

I totally disagree with this 100%. Why would a rifle be any less accurate up close? Pistols for obvious reasons will be less accurate at a long distance. What they really need to do is increase the SAC by a lot more on rifles and decrease the SAC on pistols. They should also completely remove the movement hinderance on pistol. I personally think it would be a lot easier to run around with a pisol instead of some huge hammer.

I know I understand that but I still think there should not be any hinderance on a pistol, just doesn't make sense at all.

It's jus jedi though lol...o well, I could shoot an apple off a normal toon's head, but for some reason when my toon see's a jedi, he forgets how to aim. 147 spd, 343 acc...for what? I'm not sayin I should hit everytime, but I miss an mdef bout9 of 10 shots...it's sad they don't even have to heal when I fight them.

Jesus...how'd you get 343 Accuracy? I thought I was doing good with 305 (though I have slightly better speed).

I think its funny when Jedi now talk about how much theyve been nerfed. How is this ranged defense they have any different than the 80-90% saber block they had before? When i miss stopping shot with a pistol, thats it. Its over. I have to wait for the attack to refresh, and the fight finnishes long before then. The funny thing is, im much more accurate with my rifle. How does that make sense?


There was a thread on Ahazi making fun of a BH/Carbineer that couldnt kill an AFK Jedi running a couple macros at the Ryatt Trails. He tried for 30 minutes and couldnt even dent him. It was a big laugh for all the Jedi, but from my point of view, its the sad truth that reinforces the way this game has been going for too long now. Get a Jedi or accept being second rate. If elite templates cant touch a guy that isnt even at the keyboard, theres something very wrong going on.

/slaphead


thats with crispic, so you got more base, but im never wout crispic, and i buy all those lil acc, and spd stims i see on the bazaar, so all in all if i find my mark, ill pump up to 353 acc...and shoot all around.


and the thread about the bh on ahazi...pretty much sums it up, doubt he was as prepared as he needed to be, but still.

Same reason most freakin' blaster pistols can't shoot past 35m.
