100% correct.

LOTS of peeps have energy weapons, and that includes all the lightsabers running around out there. If I'd have to guess, I'd say 80% of the population engaging in combat these days is primarily armed with an energy weapon.

As a result, you see lots of peeps also running around with PSG's and armor suited up for energy attacks. That's why you see are the peeps running around in recon armor as well.

Kinetic is where its at these days for us Bounty Hunters. It just so happens that the best carbine out there for us that is kinetic is the Czerka Carbine. It comes very close to the Elite, E5, and E11 mark 2 when its tweaked up properly. When you go against some bloke that is totally geared up against energy, you end up doing MORE damage than any of the best carbines out there.

And yea....what the other guy said....it just makes a cool sound too.

Its pretty amazing though....there are still tons of BH's running around with energy weapons. Just don't think about this stuff, I guess.
