Pistoleer Archive

Here was an idea that could be brought out after whenthe pistoleer profession was regularly balanced, this idea was inspired from the RIS armor quest.

First of all theresthis BIG pistoleerquest with a whole bunch of little tiny quests, the reward would be able to use TWO pistols in both hands now the quests would have to be very hard depending on how two pistols would team up so I decided some ideal rules to makeup for a possiblity of aninvincebleprofession, but then againhopefully the profession will prob. be balanced anyways.

1. by having two pistols in your hand, it would decrease your grip and acurracy abit until the second pistol is un-equiped

2. You have to be master pistoleer in order to do the quests

3. You can have any combinations of pistol to balance, example: a dude with aDX2 pistol on one hand anda power5 pistol in the other etc. or two DX2 pistols in both hands etc. etc.

4. NOTE: the big problem would concern aboutspecial attack costs hehe, well unless the devs would think of something like assigning a special attack to each pistol...

GOOD REASONS to use two pistols

1. Increases damage and speed

2. there could be combos such as Stopping shot (forone pistol)+fan shotetc.

3. Heck maybe make you look like jango fett from the video game bounty hunter hehe

Now I can't think of anymore ideas or maybe its just that I have so much to say any comments, suggestions or anymore ideas to add or balance this idea would be most helpful ty

Obvious hypothetical question (same I have for RIS folks):

If you drop Master Pistoleer after doing the quest, can you still dual wield?

(I wonder if you can still make RIS if you drop Master Armorsmith, too.)

Sound great, even though I'mnot too big on the combos and the fact that we need working specials more than we need content.

I like the idea, but I still feel as I said in another thread is that to obtain a Dual Weilding Pistol, one must first achieve Master Pistoleer. After that he can progress forth and get "Novice Dual Weildind Gunfighter" (after spending combat XP or Pistol XP of course) And in order to grind up the skill you need dual pistol XP.

What I'm trying to say is to be a dual pistoleer, it should be an elite-elite class.

Actually, it would make sense as an elite-elite class.

pretty much I was thinking of that too, yeah that is a good idea having a elite lite profession...

Only after the speacials get balanced

if you guys get dual weild then BHs do to!

Maybe turn Multi-Shot into the special for dual-pistol-wielders?

High damage, low accuracy, more or less the same speed.

But I agree this would be good as a whole separate elite profession, as well.

You know what would be even better?

To do this quest with specials other than the 5 that work....

-but then that must not matter... I must be nuts when I think that I would rather have one pistol and be adequate than 2 and stay gimped...

Maybe the DEV's could move all the good stuff to the first 2 columns, that way we would not have to take the broken stuff.

Pistol meelee def 2, multi target shot, pt blk area2, pt blk sing.2, double-tap and the rest will still be broken with 2 pistols as much as 1....

The devs are hard pressed.... please do not confuse them... stick to fixing things...

Ya, but, how 'bout we try and fix things as is instead of crying for something that'd make people hate us more? Sound good, eh?

I mean, I'm all for duel wield, but this game needs some serious reborking as it stands.

Figues we can't have anything over BHs.

Maybe this is what there planning to do. If you check out the test center, it seems that they are even making rifle and carbine skills much better then pistol. If they come out with duel pistols, then we would be right up there with them.
