How about we all relax and not get too defensive right now?
Jedi already have access to a paralyze move. Combat Medics already have it. The only difference is that we will be able to deliver it at long ranges and (given commando skills) on multiple groups of people.
is why I love my shiny new acid stream luncher.Area Underhanded shot for the win. Area concussion shot for the win.

I'm actually thinking that Panic Shot should be some sort of "posture down" effect.
I could see that. Low Blow should definitely return to being a KD plus the action slowdown but a more noticible slow down.

You guys just will not STOP until I break down and drop commando 0400 for 0103 will you ?
. We just have to make sure that when the shot is changed on TC it's all the description of mezzing suggests it to be

I just know that I will prepare my frigate for battle.
Any volunteers for the boarding party?
Cause I WILL explode into the face of the nerfherders

Reckless Shot is the other Smuggler Damage Special. Has a decent damage modifier, but the drawback is that you get a temporary defence debuff, somewhere along the lines of -80. However, if you have Intimidate shot, make sure to use it before using Reckless Shot. That way, even though more attacks get through, you'll take a little less damage from them.

what happened to pie's???
like this idea, and i like concussion shot as it is. with a plasma flamer, i can usually keep enough beasties at bay. or when i want a single one to come for me, i hit 2 and CS one of them first, then when the other is closer, i CS that one. note that i hardly PvP, so i don't know how good/bad i am in PvP...

Why spend all of the skillpoints on Underhand shot when youcan shoot a rocket launcher that will do it for free?
well you have to spend the skill points for the rocket luncher in the first place even if it's slightly cheaper. I got an knock down however to use with the acid stream rifle. I could of had a Single target area knock down with the rocket luncher or I can have a single target knock down with underhand shot but make it an area knock down when coupled with the acid stream luncher
Commando 0103 is such a better idea then 0040, that way I can have 3 base slicing professions I'm such a noob at times.
Ok we are lossing a root and gaining a mez this isnt going to change i think we need to think the things which concern me are cool-down times and duration of the mez, i dont like the idea of swapping a root for a mez and having the duration reduced.
Since the mez is broken once the opponent takes damage i think that 40sec's is fine though 60sec's would be preferable to give us time to get out of dodge since rumours of BH coming after us has been mentioned.
I think since it will become a mez lets make it work for us because with a crowd control of 5 we need to make this move justify it for us.
