Thanks, HotDog. What pistol are you using? I was trying to adjust my ranged speed for my opener with a DE-10 and an Adv Scatter last night but the weapon switch was giving me trouble. I couldn't always get the weapon switch. The temps giving me trouble are the CM and Docs because of their healing ability.

I was using the Renegade on Test for the fun of it.

In live the THEORY will be to use my fastest pistol- whatever that turns out to be- to lay the states and then switching to the appropriate damage weapon.

I didn't have any trouble switching weapons on TC but I DO need to streamline the process.

I think EVERYONE will have trouble with Docs and CMs and honestly I believe they will be FTOM when it all boils down to it as they will be the only ones able to deal with DoTs effeciently (besides TKMs).

The only PvP I had on test was a Rifleman two shotting me to death with a T21 while I was fighting some ST in the Bestine Starport (but since it was in the landing area- maybe that was a player too! going to be hard to tell with all this ST armor around- look for that to be the next forced PvP whine).

That said, it is my intention to get my toolbar setup so I can quickly decide to fight or to flight and get out of danger quickly. I'm not too worried about PvE. PvP on the other hand is going to be a CHALLENGE.

In a one on one duel, I like to lead with panic, followed by stopping shot for the root. I then use disarm, overwhelm, concussion and start laying states like mad with a flamethrower. I still need real damage special though.

Panic Shot just does -15 to an enemies speed right? Wouldn't the -50 from Low Blow be better?

Disarm is probably JUST like Panic Shot.

Overwhelming shot DOES NOT WORK AT ALL.

The only things that work and are effective are stun and intimidate.

Lol, I use feign death a lot

I went Master Smuggler/Master Commando and was either A.) Throwing grenades, B.) Playing with flamer C.) Using Feign Death (I need no pride) or D.) Wishing there was a Doctor around.

I'm going MS/MBH with heavy weapons line of Commando.

So, what specials are working best for you?

I like Improved Underhand Shot for the KD, Restrain for the "Root", but what do you think is the best damage dealer after that?

Tried "Last Ditch" but I found it eats to much Ham to be effective. Torso shot isn't to bad but lacks enough punch it seems.

Also, whats your weapon of choice? I'm leaning on the Heavy Beam Cannon as a damage dealer;but it seems the weapons all do about the same amount of damage by catergory, pistol, carbine, rifle, or heavy weapon; albeit it is either kinetic or energy with a little non-factoring elemental damage.

Thanks,

Geor

This is my exact template and my weapon of choice: The LBC.

Without getting into my theories and giving away my secrets, I like Underhand Shot for the knock down and Confusion shot for the dizzy (not neccesarrily in that order).

Try it- you will notice that Underhand shot and Confusion are on different warm up/cool down clocks so they are limited only by your ranged speed.Therfore using a LBC to apply the states may not be the most effecient way to do it

HOWEVER, there is nothing like using Torso Shot with the LBC and seeing your target catch fire and start bleeding (especially when two other targets near him start to do the same thing).
