Thread: Parsing dps... lower lvl moves better than many higher?

I have had several people point out that on a damage over time scale bodyshot 2 is as good or better than bodyshot3. Is this also the case for some of those other moves? Stopping shot is good dmg but huge delay. Has anyone parsed out DPS on all the different moves?


I dont have stopping shot or fanshot and wasnt going to get them based on the trend I've seen. I did parse out lastditch in the smuggler line and compare it to rolling shot... and rolling shot actually had a higher DPS. This doesnt really upset me since the smuggler line is defensive in nature, but I am seriously hoping to see a dps increase for using fanshot and even doubletap and stopping shot.

For body shot 2-3 that is correct. body shot 3 hits for more, but because of delay is worse then body shot 2 over time.


Check the pistoller FAQ, sticky at top, and our great leader has posted a table listing all pistoleer skills and dps.

That's good info.. .but it doesnt compare it to rollshot/kipup I can only hope its better dps for the pistoleer stuff but bodyshot2 has proven that may not be the case.

I believe its 2.5 damage and 1.55 delay for kip-up shot. But I took that from a post yesterday by Jaegen88 listing the marksman special moves -- you might want to look at the source document.

If those numbers are correct, it would be superior to Fan Shot...Using Jaegen's FAQ base, it would have a DPS of 63.1 vs 62.3 for Fan Shot.



Is it possible that the number includes the upfront +50% for all shots, normal or otherwise? If not, that would essentially relegate Pistoleer to only Health Shot 2 and Pistol Whip as far as superior specials.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was true. Rollshot puts out some mean dps. I parsed it out for real dps and it beat last ditch.
