How come pistoleers can't use the new pistols? All the new pistols are all for Squad Leader. I'm all fine with allowing SLs to use certain weapons, but you'd figure that a MASTER PISTOLEER would be able to use any freaking pistol. BTW, I was a MP before CU went live, and I'm happy to see we actually are working alot better.

My main complaints so far is: the new pistols can't be used by pistoleers, the new carbines (and some of the old ones) can't be used by master carbineers (I know, I'm one of those, too), there's a stupid Klingon weapon in game (the massassi knuckler), and melee weapons STILL outdamage ranged ones. I'm sick of this EQ crap!

of course melee can out damag eus, but all you haveto do is Root them and stand outa ranged and shoot em, i dueled a swordsman, and they never got a shot on me, rotted them and stood back and killed em. due to them cursing much, also dueled a jedi and beat him , the same way. ranged deffinatley is a lot stronger now.

You can use some of the new pistols. They're not all skill based requirements, some are just certed at a certain combat level so you can use them no matter what profession you are.

as flashy as those new pistols are, sticking with a geo, a fwg5, and a dx2 isn't all that bad.

Scatters aren't as good, and the Alliance is almost like a dx2. And those squad leader pistols are only slightly better, put as a "reward" for mastery or actually going into it

Only like 3 of the new Pistols are tied to a new profession (Master CM, Master Squad Leader, and like .. a couple others I guess).

I only really use an FWG-5, a Republic Blaster, and a DE-10 now anyway. 'Cause of the crappiness of Elemental Damage I don't have a need for anything else right now, which is kinda sad. And like you, Pistoleer before the CU. A lot of our lost brethren are returning though, it appears..

Yes, this is a good design that is actually implemented correctly now. You're supposed to keep them away from you (and we have plenty of moves designed to do so), because when someone swings a 40pound vibrating hammer at your forehead, it's going to hurt like a btch even if you are wearing one heck of a helmet.
