Pistoleer Archive

Correct me if i'm wrong, but it sounded like stopping shot stops your target on its tracks and suppression shot forces your target to lower its position, so that it sort of stops and buys you more time to run far away. In a PvP situation, what would be moer useful for a pistoleer to keep a good distance (against a meleer). Just wondering, thx.

Against a Meleer? Supression Shot by far. Not only do they have to spend the time to get back up again, they are more vulnerable to damage in a lower postion. I generally used(in beta..not there in full yet) supression against melee and some mob types, and stopping against ranged attack users since the lower position may stop them, but it also gains them better accuracy.

does supress fire even work?

Right now, Supression Fire does absolutely nothing.

Actually I think stopping shot is just a huge damage spcial, nothing more. An NPC used it on me once and did 500 and some odd damage, but didn't make me kneel/prone, I could still move like normal, and I did, far far away

It irritates me to no end that suppression fire does absolutely nothing!

Not to hijack your thread, but has anyone gotten disarm to do anything?

Disarm so far for me has only done dmg to my opponent and pretty decent damage for the HAM it requires. I was hoping it would really disarm but no luck with that yet and I even dueled one of my friends to check and still nothing.

I was told suppression fire only works for carbine weapons, so DO NOT waste your ranged attack skills in ranged 4. Use them instead in your pistoleer bracket and avoid the foolish waste of exp like I did.

Stoppingshot doesnt work. It simply does big dmg. It does not incap or kill target at all. I wish there wasSOME CHANCE that it would incap/kill target at least.
