Pistoleer Archive

OMG we were so owned!

Imp Commando hits Coronet

3 of us, master pistoleers (and I have expert BH too) were just destroyed due to fire dmg killing us as we shot the hell out of a buffed commando.

I mean, I had a 142 - 518 scatter and I was doing 42 dmg on every shot but stopping, which went to 112 tops.

I had so much time that fire damage killed me (buffed at 3k HPs too)and I tried every shot I have.

Only good news was that a few fanshots killed her droid lol

Remember, she killed THREE of uswhile laughing the whole time. I advise avoiding PvP until this is addressed. You can't win.

1) You deserve it for staying within 16m of her special range.

2) Don't attack buffed stats. Eyeshot.

3) Use Torso shot if you must, any HAM targetted attack now that PvP damage is so **edit**ing stupid.

Her mind HAM was longer then her health.

Trust me, I'm one of the first masters on my server, I know how to PvP.

Point is, the pistol damage is broken for PvP and this is how we found out.

Oh, and after we licked our wounds we dueled each other for testing.

Without armor our specials were doing the same damage ratio to us. 42 - 112 (did I mention I can hit 3500's withstopping shot - this is less the 10%)

Eye shot wont do any good

With a faction dancer now, most PvPers will probably be floating around 2k mind, with a 40% composite helmet

Normally, when eye shot does 180 damage, thats great...However at 45 damage eye shot will kill you long before you kill them...

(Though armor is broken atm)

This patch is such a joke

uuummmm, ya....i have a krayt enhanced 78-398 1.7 spd fwg5 that i use (master pistoleer smuggler pistol) 50% composite armor, picked up a good buff, ate a muon, ran out to pvp, and got my ass kicked by a chef,..................... repeatedly. i usually do 600- 1250 damage per shot, and if i get off lowblow, last ditch i won almost every time.....against everyone. i mean i'm the guy that's been saying hang in there, play to your strengths, i beat bh's and commandos ALL the time, kite this guy, lowblow this guy, why are you all complaining? pistoleer works for me..........before tonight

tonites fight went something like this, plink, plink,......plink,....plink,.......plink,.......he heals himself, kills me.

i hit for 135

135

thats with a krayt enhanced pistol using a 6x multiplier (last ditch)

135.....45 on non special shots, the ones where i was looking at the combat spam with my mouth hanging open

all bleeds,poisons,flames,wounds are working....on me...please let this be a mistake

Then I'd expect you to know that you can heal 2000 damage with one stimpack charge with pharmacology IV and decent first aid? How is he going to heal the mind pool? And you said he was buffed. Assuming the damage you were doing he was probably regenerating at the same rate you were doing dmg to him.

Eyeshot = win (well maybe not in this situtation, since PvP is obviously FUBAR right now)

It is a mistake the 75% PvP reduction is being done 2x for some reason, they will fix it soon I hope. It doesn't effect bleeds or burns so the commando will win for now.

If you couldn't beat the comp wearing commando as a Master Pistoleer before this u suck and should consider changing to CH or a dancer.

You guys do realize the point of the post was to show the PvP nerf, right?

Keep in mind the time it was written was right as most serversbecame accessable and 99.9% of the player base had no idea that we were gonna be doing 42 points of damage with a 142-518 scatter pistol while fire damage was fully functionable.

As a Master Pistoleer/ Expert BH with the gun I have anda Master Doc 2nd account on auto-follow, I've NEVER lost a duel ever in three months.

This was never a fight to three BH/ Pistoleer, it was a straight up SHOCK!!

And to put the "you must suck for not knowing how to kill a commando" crowd at ease, I killed him in a duel 15 mins later. Skill and strategywasn't the topic, but rather an OMG what's going on here post.

PS - I'd gladly show my screenshot ofa Master Smuggler, a Master Commando, and a Master CH at my feet who challanged me at once...pre patch pic of course lol.

And you SHOULD HEAR how the Commando board is lighting up withpissing and moaningover their newfound 2.5 damage melee mod.

You'd think they were the most gimped profession in the game the way they're bitching like babies over there. They're still the best pvp profession out there, but since so many fair-weather uber-players jumped on that bandwagon, they've got a lot of worthless members in their ranks now, too. ~J

You can hit 2400 mind without a faction dancer.

they toned down damage... if you take bleed, poison, disease, and fire out of the picture things look pretty balanced. I tested yesterday.

Problem is bleed, poison,disease, and fire are on a different set of code (DOT code I like to think of it as).

So now your bleed does more damage than your gun. They need to modify DoT's and then it will be fun pvp that is not instant. Oh, and they need some kind of blue bar healing, that wildcard is a joke!

Healing is now a viable tactic in pvp, and most people will want it if they are going to pvp much. Two guys can still take out one pretty fast though.
