Thread: AN apology from a rifleman
I started a post late last night comparing several FWG5's to our pre nerf T21 and simply asked why our weapon was nerfed.
Unfortunately some Dev took this as a call to nerf. I had NO intention of a nerf but was hoping for a un nerf.
This post is not to argue the reasons behind said post but to apologize for what some mis guided Dev did after reading my post.
No apology necessary. I've been bordering on canceling over the past month but some part of me wanted to believe the devs would sometime come to the notion of fixing parts of the game before nerfing others.
Now, with our only viable gun made useless (due to a still broken DX2) you've helped me finally put this game behind me for good.
As for my stuff...I'm giving it to my guild. So, no...you may not have it.
To those who choose to stay, good luck (you've got more patience than I).

whats done is done.. Pistoleer is more gimp now... time to move to FF XI...
+75 dodge is totally gimp, +0 dodge needs a nerf though. +70 knockdown is gimp, +0 knockdown needs a nerf. Hmm.
So much more I want to type but I'm still steamed from reading your posts. Serenity now, serenity now, serenity now.....
If this goes through this will be what I needed to quit.
You are probably doing most of us a favor.

I read the whole thread Marco, and you got a lot of balls posting here. Go to your forum and work on your problems and please, never mention us again.

I second that...
The bounty hunters have always hated us, and they always will. For a period there was intense conflict between Riflemen/Pistoleers. Marco, I fear that youhave singlehandedly (and perhaps unwittingly) begun thenext Pistol/Rifle nerf war...
I'm so tired of people hating the pistoleer profession. I think that many people get the idea that we are overpowered because it is so easy to dabble with pistols. There is BH, Smuggler, Pistoleer, and possibly Commando. Uber templates come out of these, and the general Pistoleer is blamed. It drives me nuts, because a pure pistoleer is gimped. Crappy weapons, crappy random HAM specials with no state effects, specials that don't do anything, the list goes on...
That said, I don't think that the nerf is what you meant to happen. I'm not so much angry as I am frustrated.
On the bright side of the krayt issue, people will be limited to 1 pet now. I'm told 1 AT-ST can'ttank a krayt, but that could be wrong. I've never had a krayt weapon, btw. Stupid devs for not seeing right away that these would be standard-issue.
Your post made a good point, you didn't really called for a nerf and I doubt your post was leading to this nerf anyways.
What Riflemen should now realise is that they are the only Rifle user and with minimum effort, they get the best mods of ALL combat professions. There are 4 Pistol User Professions, Pistoleer is the most gimped of them by VERY far.
Tell your fellows (and the dev, since they are listening to you) that all pistol wielders are NOT Pistoleers. I read a comment on your boards stating that devs LOVE Pistoleers...still can't stop laughing to this poor retarded comment.
I loved Pistoleer but it looks like TKA here I come =(
