Pistoleer Archive

Hi there,

For a number of reasons, I am considering a highly hybrid template, with bits and pieces of everything. It basically gives me a lot of healing skills, enough CH skills to control a level 35 creature and a few weapon skills.

'A few weapon skills' means three boxes into one of the Pistoleer trees. Now, I have two questions for those of you who know more about it than I do:

(1) I'm thinking of getting Expert Stances and Grips, to get Stopping Shot, which I hear is good. Do you think this is a good choice, or would it be better to get expert level in one of the other three tiers?

(2) I'm considering Pistoleer skills instead of Carbineer or Rifleman skills, because I figure with such limited weapon skills, the speed and low HAM costsof the pistol outweigh the advantages of the other weapons. Would you agree with that, or do you recommend another weapon type?

Thanks for all input!

yeah stopping shot is good, but you dont get any accuricy or speed bonus's on this tree, just resists

also if u can afford one more id suggest getting intermediate special abilities, u get +6 on speed, and a good special
