Pistoleer Archive

Currently im master smuggler/pistol 4000/mcm. I rotate between body shot and reckless shot as my two damage dealing specials, and use plain old ranged shot when the action/mind gets low. The problem with this combo is that i have a near permanent -80 to my already low defense, and the two specials only seem to do about 1.5-2x the damage of ranged shot, for a huge increase in action costs.

What do you guys like to use as your shots for damage, is it worth swapping pistol 4000 out into other pistoleer skills? My speed is already pretty low, so losing the +30 odd speed i get in that pistol branch will also have the downside of slowing down the rate i can lay states etc.

I do primarily play as part of a small group and often am just laying states/debuffs/healing people/controlling mobs etc, but ocassionally its nice to be able to beat the crap out of something

Any suggestions welcome.

The only other damage shots you have available are basic quickdraw and overcharge shot.

Thanks badger, any idea if there is a list of all the damage mulipliers on specials anywhere?
