Pistoleer Archive

Unfortunately, you may have to wait for the combat overhaul to get Pistoleer where it ought to be. But that ismonths off. My complaints with this class are all PvP oriented. Our DPS is crap and our weapons make us a joke. Rifleman own us in PvP as do the melee classes. Add to that 90% resist armor and the weakness of the tangle pistol and we are lucky to do 50 points of damage per shot vs 3K buffed HAM while rifle men shoot at same speed with weapons doing as much as 5-10 times the damage and using a targeted pool mind shot. Granted a good genosian blaster will help but few schematics have been found. Our master lvl pistol shot does not work, our bleeds are weakened to the point of being useless (especially PvP) and BS3 does not do enough damage unless you have a very rare Pre-nerf weap like FWG which stinks in PvP as it has no armor piercing (oh and the T21 is Hvy AP which gives a 50% increase to damage).

I have left, but i still be around, i plan on coming back if we get fixed.

I will forever remain Pistoleer/Rogue/Master TKA. I don't care if it is nerfed/borked/broke/weak/strong/retarded. Its my class, and I am staying that way.

I'm more for either leaving this broken and useless game than spending more time grinding out another profession. I really do however want to know what is planned for my profession, Pistoleer (and smuggler, but we already know that smug is getting another nerf, and prolly won't have any combat moves by the time the combat revamp hits). I also want to know what's on the table for Rifleman and TKA, because those are the best professions for combat right now, and even without defense stacking there won't be a single reason not to do these professions if they don't get any hard nerfs (or, if pistoleer doesn't get "fixed", but I'm not holding my breath for that to happen).

the only reason I pop on to play anymore is to say hello to my friends in my PA. If at the very least I don't know what is happening in the combat revamp, I'll take a cue from the devs past precedent and unsubscribe after getting my friends AIM handles.
