Ive been trying to squeeze an area attack into my template (MRifles/0310Carbines/4003CombatMedic/0403Pistoleer)
So I suppose Ill drop xxx3 CombatMedic if I have to, so my question is..........
Whats the difference between Improved and Normal Disarming shot, is it duration or damage?
Whats the difference between Improved and Normal Full Auto Area, is it damage, or accuracy, or what?
Is Full Auto Area the only Area attack?
Thanks!

It is my sincere opinion that xxx3 CM is better than any area attack you're going to find.
That being said, the pistoleer area attack is Fan Shot (I mix it with sprayshot). Full auto area, AFAIK anyway, isn't a pistoleer attack. The other area attack we have is burst shot, which a cone stunshot. Since stun does nada, it's fairly useless I think (Must confess I havn't checked what kind of damage it does). And although disarming shot *is* nice, again, it's not nicer than e-drain.

I tend to alternate Fan Shot and Burst Shot on ow level things like groups of stormies, burst shot doesn't hit for much but it does some damage and sorts out the timer on Fan Shot at the same time.
Highly recommend that with a Krayted ALR when farming a crackdown.

I've got sprayshot from BH which appears to be either the same or a quite similar damage modifer to fanshot. Yeah, it does work a treat against crackdown spawns
