Thread: Keep your mouths shut!! b4 we get nerfed!!
Why these gaming companies are screwing up when they listen to their player base about balance.
My advice to SOE, take what you see from posts then test them YOURSELF. Balance the game because it needs it not because some of your players are board warriors that would cry even if they had a insta kill ability.
like what btw?
I can hit something moving now, and i dont have to put my rifle away when they go melee on my a$s.
But other than that whats new? Conceal shot works? Seriously that so against my current gameplay that ive not even used it. The only real big thing ive noticed is that my mind bleed doesnt seem to work anymore. What in the hell are you refering to?
Ya we suck now more because of the patch!!!!!!!!!!
Look at the pistoleer Defensive bonuses verse state change!!!!!
So shhhhh, be very quite and if you speak my it only be complaints
There were a few nerf herder typ pistoleers in the general forum saying how we arent missing anymore! Well when they had the old accuarcy modifiers in I was missing about 1/4 - 1/6 of my shots and I am at master sniper.... Im hitting just about everything in my idea range now. I think I missed one thing last night. Of course I am still about the same outside my ideal range. Crappy as always but hey I expect that.
Well perhaps we should start a thread to nerf pistols if they get this new change nerfed because I am sick of these pistoleers who are at least 2x more accurate than rilfes even way outside their ideal ranges.

So Vlamr can you please educate us all on how you come to this conclusion? Seeing that Master Pistoleer has +95 base accuracy, Master Rifleman has +160, even when a pistoleer uses a special he has a +145 to accuracy is still lower then what we have.
My advice Vlamr dont talk about things you have no clue about.
i put my foot squarely in my mouth.
the secret thing your talking about ive never used till now, but as it is I can solo anything in the game with it given enough time and muon (or food now that it works too). Also, with an atst and a mauler tanking I soloed something like 8 giant canyon krayt dragons tonight. Also later I was in a group with about 4 other people, and i outdamaged the maulers, the atst, and all the other players by stacking mind shot 1 and 2 and spamming head shot 3 (on muon high). I know this because the mind pool on the dragons would kill em while other pools were still at halfway.
The grind to master was slow and irritating: constant one-punch incaps, empty mind pools, slow firing, shooting at "the wrong pool" on hunts, and insane dependency on a pet, even to the point that I got 70% of the way to MCH before I did so, whenI started rifleman right when I first bought the game.
But now...
I don't even use my pet for missions anymore. Just call up a mount, hitch out to the target, and spray death into NPCs;even "generals"can't touch me, whatwith these newranged defense bonuses. PvP is insane too: me, a MBH, an ExpertBH/pistoleer, and a Commando claimed the hill over Anchorhead for the sake of science. Even in that group, I was STILL dealing nearly half the total damage. I was only outdone when the Commando was dancing in the cantina with a full room of farmed TEFs, and pulled out that flamecone2. We were only cleared out when someone got a gaping spider on me, and even then I must've dealt 5% decay to everyone in the city, more if they weren't insured.

Hmm, so the rifleman is 15 points more accurate than a pistoleer. Unless the pistoleer moves 10 meters, which takes him about one second. So one shot. For one shot a rifleman is more accurate if the pistol user moves towards him. And then the rifleman has the option of jsut staying there and getting worse and worse accuracy while the pistoleer gets better and better accuracy, or stand up and move, where he looses even more accuracy. Good, then I don't have to worry about this anymore!
I'm nost saying that these numbers are wrong. I'm jsut saying that these are THEORETICAL numbers for a very specific situation that in noraml gameplay other than using conceal shot does not last for more than ONE SHOT. So please stop instulting people jsut based on those numbers. Thanks.
