Pistoleer Archive

Im with ya man...I just got the Master Gunfigher not to long ago and I have to say that as much as I anticipated fashot it rarley does me one bit of good...I still think Disarming Shot2 should unequip weapons or cause a high delay since its a MASTER move...the only use for it really is(someone mentioned this in an earlier thread)for lairs and I have to admit it does some massive damage to them I hit it for an avg of 1k-2k heh heh, I hit it for 2500-5000 sometimes so at least its ONE good thing...

Can't disagree

What's a Ranger?

I personally believe the single biggest reason half the stuff in this class doesn't work, because if it did, it would make this class entirely over powered in some fashion.

I'm not sure I dig the mantra of low damage high speed. That's only a "benefit" to the profession when comparing novice marksmen elites. At master levels.... everyone shoots as fast or faster. In fact at master a pistoleer is less likely to hithis speed cap than a rifleman for example.

Personally I think pistoleers should be the king of neato specials..... real "trickshots". You know kinda like those BH's have. Like the multi, blind,stun,dizzy deal.. that rules. specific pool or avatar limb attacks. You may not think so now, but if pistoleers could target arms we would be gods at least for a little while.

i think if any profession is overpowered, it should be pistoleer.

pistoleers are the iconic symbol of starwars, and we are the worst pure fighting class? how sad.

I have also played since launch. It upsets me that so many of the problems from release are still around.

i think in general they have moved their staff to other games, such as EQ2 and EQ Live, which will soon be far more profitable for them then this.

Yeah it is about time they do something to make pistoleers better. I spent a lot of cash on Speed tapes (have a 91 speed now so I can spam Stopping shot 1/second) but I am forced to keep dirty fighting line because Pistoleer moves are not as good as Smuggler. Now I was a Master Smuggler on Bloodifn since Late July (one of the servers first), so I dont want to bash smugglers. But Can you imagine a Master TK having to learn an entire row in another profession to acquire the best TK moves? They would all scream. Or a 2H swordsman? Fencer? Why are pistoleers forced to do this? We have NO STATE attacks, our bleeds are too weak, BS3 is not as powerful as it should be, Multi Target Pistol Shot is Broken....thats right our Master Shot does not work. H9ow bloody lame is that? UA3 Works, 1H hit 3 works etc... Fixing our shots will help, but Pistoleers are forced by there very design of the template to stack. So Scream to the Devs. Pistoleers need some redesign, They dont have to become UBER so everyone wants pistols, just balanced so that those of us who have used pistols and remained loyal to the class see a payoff.
