Heh, even in capt pistol duels u see the action mostly happening in close range because that's the only range where the shot can't be seen and dodged easily. with a rifle when you click the shot hits watever your crosshair is on.
i have only seen pistols become useful weapons on Des. taking out campers or making desperate droid part saves for Def. sometimes u see a desperate hoth codes save by Def, but that also rare, as rare as getting wookie bolt kills and airs. if it happens u can get a laugh and take some tension off your day, why make a fuss about it? if i get hit with a pistol in pub i almost always chuckle.
Getting pistoled in scope by a reborn boss that I'm not aiming for (or even behind me?) is gay. Nuff said. If they wanna pistol me, fine, then they should go a gunner class. It's the sniper-jedi relationship that's disrupted most here (pun intended, LOL).
