Did anyone find a use for the new panic shot?
I hit some nightsister slaves and I don't think the daley works at all.

I got to about 35m from a group of 3 or 4 night sister slaves.
I opened with /panicshot; /lowblow; /lastditch
I would get the "You daley so and so" message spam, but all the others would still run up and attack me.

Man, the loss of the delay and the melee bonus to hit really cut down on my combat ability.

The delay works, but once your target takes anymore damage after getting hit with the delay they are not delayed anymore, basically cancels it out. Or this is the way i understood it and the way it worked when tested it earlier today.

Just my two cent's on all the crying yall do about the Panic Shot Nerf(ya ya one star me I dont give a Flip about the crying over nerfs):

A smugler is not a Comando, you could be a comando and a Smugler but that doesn't mean that Smugler should be like comando. I LIKE the idea that our specials are more dirrected at deffence and runing away from people like comandos.

We smuglers are the low lifes of the galaxy, we shouldn't be able to solo master bounty hunters just maybe run like hell from them. I'm in the buissness to make money slicing and selling Spices. Drug's and money, and occasialy bribing the local Imperals for installations. That's the Heart of the Smugler, not combat.

It is also obvious that smuggling is not at the heart of the smuggler in this game either....Dirty fighting was just about the only decent skill tree we had, and considering the millions of pistol xp the smuggler profession requires, it is kind of hard to say that we are not supposed to stand our ground and fight from time-to-time.


All we have been asking for months is for some content that would allow us to actually do our profession's name sake, and we have been ignored! To add insult to injury, the last two major patches have done more damage then good to our profession.


First, Imperial Officers get a pass for inspections for the Imperial Crackdown.....


Then on top of that, anyone with a droid can carry up to 50 spices with out fear of inspection....


All that Thunderheart has said these many months concerning the smuggler profession has been nothing but empty promises. I would like to see him respond to this, although i doubt he would. Better yet perhaps he could be man enough to post a formal apology for leading all of us on.....I've read the notes for the upcoming patch #8...what a shock, no mention of Smugglers getting a fix, but ahh yes the Image Designer is getting their revamp...Funny I can't think of any Image Designers in the Star Wars movies......I'm sure this post will get deleted like my last critical post....But I will save a copy of it and post it again, and again

What affect does panic shot have. I use it to delay targets for 10 secs. I think it stops them from using an attack but i notice they still can heal and apply states. Anyone know the details of this attack?


Thanks

"When Sony and Lucas set out, we said, How can we do this and not make another EQ? We didn't want it to be all about Luke, or combat, or lock our players into a class. So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change. If you want to go from architect to scout we've created a system to make that happen."
