normally you're capped at 900K, if you succeed in NEVER get any pistol XP while you've dropped the skills you'll keep the 900k...when I dropped tk some little bug attacked me 10 minutes before I was gonna train TK again

lost most of my XP.

So in short...don't EVER use your pistols and you'll get to keep 900k or whatever you've got

btw,

IF you can get the AP you should drop smuggler to 0444 or 0404 then drop some pistoleers boxes...if you manage to keep tech IV grinding you way up shuld be a lot easer

Pistol XP caps at 900k. If you can keep one line of Pistoleer, you can keep and use this xp to train with upon completing ID.

If you have to get rid of all but novice pistol, your cap is significantly reduced, but does not automatically knock your stored xp down from 900k, unless you happen to use a pistol against a mob, npc, or lair. Then the system will adjust it down to your new xp cap.

Disclaimer. I have never given up Master Pistoleer, but this is the way it was with TKM.

even if he drops all of pistoleer, you will still have 900k pistol xp. thats because hs is a master smuggler. and DF4 takes 450k in pistol xp.

Ok I am confused easily so bare with me.

I was a Master Pistoleer/ MasterFencer/ Rogue but dropped all my pistol skills to pick up Doc. This is ok but I miss the run and gun mentality I had in my old Template.

I have 900k pistol xp in the bank, so is there a way to level back up my pistol skills with out having all my saved xp erased? You make it sound as if I could train back up as long as I dont use my pistol on a mob. Is this correct? I was hoping to at least get enough for techniques 4 for fanshot for ease in leveling. I was always intending to go back to pistols but didn't know about this rule that would lower your saved xp.

That's right! I didn't think of that. Good catch.
