Sorry if this question is asked a lot (didn't see it on the first 3 pages).

I just hit novice pistoleer and was wondering what pistol to get.

Thanks

you need to get both of them, one nice thing about pistoleer is al lthe different types of damage we can do. so i always carry 1 of each damage type pistol. dx2 is good becuase no tmany mobs have acid resist, while a mod republic is really good, energy is a common resist to most mobs.

Both. It really depends on what you're killing. The DX2 is very useful on Dantooine...and it has acid damage, so it's nice to have. The republic is more generally more powerful, if you can a good one, but uses energy, and lots of things have energy resists.

the 3 pistols listed above truly are the best IMO, and also here is another thought look at the wpns range bonus/minus's example a Republic blaster is 0m= 0, (think) 30m = - 14, 64m = 0 , so the range bonuses might make a difference when either of the choise of the given wpns the mob is vunlderable to.

and dont forget the STUN pisol, i forgot its name, even tho the pistols range is only 48m and the top end dmg is low, alot of beings are stun vulnerable.

What most people have already said.. Get all three (stun optional but nice to have sometimes..necissary in pvp). The Republic does usually have the most damabe but ya it is energy type damage.. I just started to like my DX2 with its acid damage and the FWG5 is nice with its heat. As far as stun goes the tangle is the cheap one but mine only does 108 damage(speed sliced).. if you are rich get a genosian pistol though... they can be nice but pricey. Good luck!!

Take all 3..

Republic, FWG-5, DX-2.

Gives you Energy, Heat and Acid Damage.

Examine the Target, choose gun after Lowest-non-Special Protection Resist.
