Hey there,


I am a master pistoleer and i was wonderign what shot you guys thought was the most efficient in pvp, I use a combination of stopping shot and bodyshot 3 (after having used health shot 2 and disarm 2 of course). But i saw a wookie doing excellent dmg with Fan shot which seems to be crap with me ... Any suggestion for the best pistoleer pvp attacks?

I made up a macro of health shot 1, then hs 2, followed up with BS3. I love Gutt shot (BS3), it takes out the health pool in seconds on any target. In pve.....why use stopping shot for 2-3k dmg and hit the health pool on the first shot, then the next one hits action for 1500-2500, then the next one.....blah blah blah.....


I can do my macro and then use BS3 for around 1000-1800 every second ON THE SAME POOL GUARANTEED!!! It is great for taking out ones health in pvp because they panic and start popping stims (wasting their mind) and you incap them via mind (not health) because you kept eating up their health and they used up their own mind for you Or of course you take out their health. Fan shot is great because it is really fast and it is an area attack. Being able to walk up to 3-10 stormies standing closely together and spamming fan shot will easily take them all out in seconds with the right gun. As a master you have +105 dodge so you can just kneel down and dodge like Neo while using fan and laugh at the dropping stormies (or rebs) (or meatlumps for you neautrals hehe).

Fanshot!! Hands down the best damage per second in line with HAM costs out of all pistoleer specials. Although the area effect could be a curse sometime in massive pvp, allow allows tef'd individuals to attack you with out them being grouped. Nothing sucks more than having someone attack you while they are covert and ungrouped and it's your own fault for hitting them first. Avoid that and fan shot rules.

Fan Shot is great --


Unless you're fighting a FOTM, someone with 90% Armor, or even buffed. Then just bend over...and let'em have their way with you.


Right now, Smuggler Specials are the only way to go.

Problem solved........health shot 1& health shot 2.....then BS3 spam until their health runs out. Use your fastest gun for the spam and most powerful for the bleeds. I like to use my 460 dmg rep blaster for the bleeds and then my 0.8 speed FWG5 for the BS3 spam. It works great for taking out anythings health pool. I took out a rancors health pretty fast in pvp today....................

In pvp against armored and buffed people? I find bodyshot futile, the damage just cannot bring someone buffed and armored down.


I go for random ham damage shots and hope for mind hits, and rely on my primary class to do the real damage (mind poison).


Truly I don't see how anyone could pvp effectively as a pistoleer.

I would like to know too.

Last post I saw said BD2 was better then BS3. Since I'm in only 2/3/4/4 pistoleer I can't test this.

Sorry about my short absense, I lost my ISP permanently thanks to moving overseas irl. BS3 used to be broken and it was totally worthless, I do not remember which patch fixed it but it works great for me now. I have been using it effectively for about two months now and I love it. Like my above posts mention....it is not very powerful but get your speed to work for you along with a very fast gun and you take out the health pool very fast. I just love the efficiency of it. I hate dying in pvp because my stopping shot hit a guy for 200-900 and my enemy has 1k ham so I shoot again and hit for 900 again and it hits a different pool. I have hit someone for over 1k dmg and they only have 1k ham and they kill me with a crappy newb attack that singled out one of my pools. FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE!! It works great for me, sure I hit for far less with BS3 than I do with stopping shot, but why try to take out three pools when you only need to demolish one?

Ditch your macros kids, the healthshots no longer stack so you are wasting precious second(s) by attempting to stack them. The most efficeint special for pistoleers in PvP isn't a pistoleer only special, but it will save you alot of time.

Has the same end result.
