Pistoleer Archive

They are based on the damage of the weapon you are holding, right? Andthey all have the same multiplier (pistol/carbine/rifle/fencer/swordsman/pikeman), so don't we really get the short end of the stick? again?

This sucks.

Not again. Still.

Yes. We're screwed when it comes to bleeds -- ours do the lowest damage.

i dont know what other classes do but lately with a pup on ive been getting 1100 hs2 bleeds and 900 hs1 bleeds, stacked togehter maulers, frenzied grauls, fs npc drop pretty fast....trick is to spam laying down until you get a bleed you want (highest sticks) and then switch to hs1 and get the highest you can

also bleeds go right through armor, which can make them good if u are fighting an armored enemy... stupid storm trooper... even with low bleeds we can still do high dmg some times. jsut use kd first.

sucks in pvp, i was getting burned like mad from torso shot and my bleed was doing like 120 max. not to mention bh dabblers can stack all 3 haha. HS is a joke almost.

Actually, the bleed in the BH pistol tree is the worst....then ours

I swear bleeding shot(from the BH tree)has a .25x multiplier on it.

I did all the BH specials before I gave up the class...But thanks to the Holo I am back to BH .

Bleeding shot is a worthless bleed, however torso shot, in terms of damage, is about the same as HS2, simply because torso does only 50% of its max damage in the bleed. The reason its bleed is normally thought to be better (And IMO it is better) is because the fire wounds, which is a huge plus.

When talking about pistoleer bleeds, you have to take into acount they affect the health pool, and because its the most commonly hit pool by large damage random specials, that gives the pistoleer a great advantage in PvE.....Granted in PvP its not as cool as having a mind bleed...But I have won a good share of fights by doing HS1/HS2/Fan-shot/Fan-shot/BS3/BS3 (Had a fast krayt Dx2).

Your large random special may not have a sutained DPS as high as something like torso, but used in conjuction with other specials, it can be devastating...The trick is to learn when to stop the spam, and switch to a straight DPS health special like BS.
