Does this special still delay your target's next action 10 secs or did they nerf it in some way like they did to Warcry?

It delays the target, unless you attack it.


So if you panic shot, then last ditch, for example, your panic shot was meaningless.


If you panic shot, pop on a couple pieces of armor, you used the panic shot to your advantage.


Personally, I've never used panic shot.

So is it the same as a working warcry?

I stopped using panic shot when I noticed that the delayed mobs would aggro me Am I using the wrong deodorant or am I correct in this observation?

It 'used' be the stanard smuggler tactic, KD, panic shot. However these days I think its been changed to match warcry. So simply treat it as a ranged warcry with a large delay modified for both you and the target.

Panicshot is now the most useless pistol special in the game. Yes, even more useless than Healthshot 1.


You'll be hard-pressed to find a Smuggler who still has it in their shortcut bar or uses it if they do still have it there.


I tried using it once or twice after they changed it, but with my Master Pistol speed, it breaks almost as fast as it was applied. So, like most others, I removed it from my shortcut bar.


It's sad really...out of the 4 specials we're granted as a Smuggler, only 2 work...and if you're up against something with a high resist to KD, you can decrease that number to 1...
